I'm considering trying my hand at programming as a side hobby (in particular, there's a project that I'd like to see created but haven't really found on the market) and am very interested in REALBasic. I am looking at using Linux as the basis on which to develop and have been looking around the REAL website and have a couple questions.
1) Is it true that the standard version of REALBasic for Linux is free? 2) I thought I saw a blurb that said the standard version can create cross-platform executables that will only run for a limited amount of time, so you'd still require the full pro version to create cross- platform programs? 3) With the new version right around the corner, has support for Ubuntu been improved? I remember reading something about Ubuntu users of REALBasic having troubles with the IDE. The project I was hoping to learn with will eventually be run on a couple platforms, but I didn't want to start off by spending a good bit of money on the language first and find I can't get it to work for what I'm looking for. My plan was to try the Linux version to create the application, use it to create time-limited test versions for the other platforms, and if things work out as I work on it purchase the pro version of REALBasic. -Bart _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
