Why should they not? A computer is a information processing machine and GUI is not necessary to process information, it's just a cosmetic thing. The interaction of a program with the user can be done in text mode too. Algorithms have nothing to do with GUI or text mode. If students just want to paint graphics and make a game of every program then they will never be real programmers. Not every program must be a game with visual effects. > GUI apps are of much more use to people as they are flashy and rich with > widgets, whereas console mode programs seem utterly boring. What is the use of a program? Entertainment? -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org http://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
