Hi:
Now that /View has been defined a little better for us, I wanted to get the
list's opinion about the project that I have on my desk and whether Rebol
might be appropiate for it.
My employer has written a professional time accounting package directed at
the legal profession. Right now I'm in the process of converting the data
from propietary ISAM structures into DBF's with the necessary data
normalization. I want to roll out an application that will work within a
traditional firm network, and over the internet with very little rewrite
between the two versions. Right now the languages that I'm considering
are:
Visual Foxpro - there is a third party package that converts the VFP forms
to HTML forms.
handles data and persistance.
Java - don't know much about this - but its the lingua franca of the
internet. Generally, I don't like the language structure.
Smalltalk - either IBM, Cincom, or Squeak also don't know much - but looks
like fun.
REBOL - I've read the 10 steps - and followed the discussion. I realize
that the Database support is not there yet, but it looks very promising.
I have the luxury of waiting for REBOL to develop abit as the data
normalization should take a bit longer to do. Any thoughts
