I treat languages like a big cafeteria - Perl is the dessert, others may
consider it more like the spaghetti, but I have much better grasp of
perl than tcl (Perl Whirl 2002, got to meet Larry!)... but Tcl for Palm
might be just the thing for some projects!

other questions -
Where is a good tutorial or sample proggies for using C++ with
prc-tools/gcc ? I have the O'Reilly Palm Programming book which is very
good (2nd edition) but is mostly C (though highly regarded).

I am using prc-tools/gcc/pilrc, do all tables have to be tied to a pdb
file? Is there something that is roughly like a grid control?  I am
writing a program to solve simple substitution ciphers with the
ciphertext in a multiline field at the top (someday it might read a
memo), and a grid along the lower half of the screen to keep up with how
my A-Z characters are arranged (like A=N,B=F,C=X...Z=whatever). Or does
this become a 5x6 (26 chars plus room for a "Refresh" button) array of
labels and fields and I get to draw the lines?  (This will be freeware
when it works)

thanks,

David Martin
