[newbie] (newbie] Yet Another Programming Question
Hi there, I'm a newbie to Linux, and I know that this might sound like a silly question, but I was wondering about Visual Basic for Linux. Now I know that VB is a Microsoft product so VB for Linux would be an oxymoron, but still, I'm a college student and would rather run it in Linux rather than Win98. So are there any rumours of development (third-parties)? Running it on Wine will be a chore for another day :-) Thanks in advance. Evan

Not likely ;-) Still, if you're interested, check http://www.linuxberg.com and navigate through the X11 development software. It seems that I read something awhile back about that convert VBscript to something linux-compatible, you might find something along those lines for VB.

Do it in 'C/C++'. There is many..many... good stuff for easy programming. Take a look at the 'C/C++ users journal'. Eric
