Any opinions on Gambas (I think they just let loose with ver3) and BaCon? BaCon is newer I think so no IDE for it yet, but Gambas has been around for a while. But Barry from the main Puppy page seems to like BaCon. Any opinions? -John |

Bacon has BaconGUI, BaconGUI UPX and there is Tiny IDE, a GUI for Bacon. Try search the forum. _________________ Useful Software for Puppy! LazY Puppy - a Paradise Puppy! - DE & EN ISO 2.0.2-0.0.5 available |

There are IDE creators as RHS mentions for Bacon but it is no match for the one in Gambas, which gives you far more control. However last I looked Gambas needs the 320k interpreter as well as the code to run a program. BaCon creates standalone C code - which is much smaller, faster and more efficient. Some of the reasons Barry prefers it no doubt. http://bkhome.org/bacon/ Gambas is seductive but probably unsuitable for Puppy development If you want a BASIC/Python like language look at Genie as well as BaCon http://puppylinux.org/wikka/ValaGenieintro You should also look and learn Bashscript http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppySchoolProgramming Hope that helps

@RSH- Thanks for the 411, I guess that once again I am misinformed LOL. On a side note, what is this Lazy Puppy? I have tried to find it but keep getting caught in loop of thread after thread and then to another thread. Is it a package or is it a distro/spin of yours? @Lobster- Thanks, that is what I was wondering about. I downloaded Slacko in a VBox and I found Genie in it but not the BaCon stuff, Guess I will have to download the dev file as soon as I can track it down. -John |

Yes, the menus are in German at bootup. You can change the German menus to english (f.e) by using the countrywizard after bootup (menu-desktop) or directly after x starts. 
Choose English keyboard layout (f.e). It should be easy - i do it all the time.
