Define 'learn to program'...

GW-Basic on MS Dos 5.0, or Batch file programming was about all I'd
done before Uni.

Pre-Internet made things a lot harder - the local library only had
books on Commodore 64 programming (I remember a book that contained
source code for writing your own games).

My first program:

c:\>  10 Print "Hello"
Bad command or filename

huh?
