Dark Basic, Real Basic and Bears, Oh my!

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

I've got a copy of Real Basic which is kind of a kitchen sink language.
I find it's performance to be awful and it's development environment puts
my teeth on edge.  I bought Dark Basic because it sounded good on the box.
IMHO, it's unpredictable garbage collection lags are a deal breaker.

But I bet Euphoria could add wire model and texturing features that would
blow dark basic away.  That would be added functionality that would promote
usage.  Minimalist my ass, I say!  Damn the torpedos, full speed ahead.
(torpedos during that era being more a keg of black powder than what we
think of as a torpedo today.)

Dark basic wraps directX.  I'd think Euphoria would use OpenG (what is the
name? I forgot.  Old age, creaping up on me.)

Don't shoot the messenger.  Just one of many thoughts bouncy around in my
pretty little head (think, thunderous echos.)
