I think the hard task in front of RunRev is convincing current programmers that they should learn a new language and syntax. I have to echo some of the other sentiments here and say that I do use C/C++ in most of my work due to the hurdle of convincing prospective clients to accept a product written in anything else, but I find my write/develop/debug cycle *much* faster in rev than in C. My productivity is roughly on par with my forth coding, which I find to be four or five times faster than with C. (and I've been coding in both of those for over 20 years). And converting my existing C routines to Transcript is mostly just changing the syntax. I'm constantly amazed at the fact that my Transcript code runs just as fast as the compiled-to-machine-code C routines, even when it comes to numerical processing. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
