| 522179 | 2007-02-03 07:55:00 | i know these which is "most suitable" or "best" questions aren't exactly nice to ask but i just want a few suggestions about where to start i've no programming background so i just want to pick on a language to start learning if that is possible the GUIs i'm thinking about are simple ones which help to make command line programs easier to use some example would be razorlame or megui type of GUIs there are loads of nice GUIs out there but sometimes i want to tailor something that suits my needs any suggestions are welcome~thanx (ps. er..spelling mistakes in post topic..i can't edit it now so yea..) |

| 522180 | 2007-02-03 08:00:00 | Have a look at Microsoft Visual Studio Express Editions - they tend to be very easy to design GUIs for (drag and drop), and are generally fairly basic programming languages (eg. Visual Basic, C#, etc.). msdn.microsoft.com Even better: the software is free. Have a look at C# - it has some very good, free, online video tutorials here: msdn.microsoft.com |

| 522182 | 2007-02-03 10:01:00 | Delphi is worth a look at. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 522183 | 2007-02-03 10:17:00 | If your interested in great GUI design that is simple and easy to use you might also be interested in reading up on Jeff Raskin who is one of the original fathers of the GUI next to the guys at PARC Xerox who demo'd their concept to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates at a slightly later stage. en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org |

Python (http://www.python.org/). Open-source, widely used and extremely well supported in *nix. Not only is it a scripting language that is used very widely in web and *nix scripting (e.g., it can be used in place of PHP (and is much better IMHO), but also for much of the automation that is in Linux like installation scripts etc), but it is also a programming language in itself (i.e., you can write executables with it. The Python GUI programming stuff (wiki.python.org) is extensive. |

| 522186 | 2007-02-04 07:37:00 | okay i'll have a look at that too i've started to look at some tutorials on C# knowing python will be handy when i'm playin around on my linux machine but i think i'll try C# first because sadly.. i'm still way more familiar with windows than linux.. |

| 522187 | 2007-02-04 07:58:00 | C# is also quite a popular development language (for the Windows platform). It is also very similar to many other languages (eg. Java), so you will find it quite easy to adapt if you decide to change later on. | somebody (208) | ||
