I disagree. Delphi/Object Pascal with the VCL (Visual Component Library) is one of the most sophisticated IDEs ever, even better than Qt IMO. The only drawback is that it is Windows only. > No real control of your GUI design with Delphi, just a lot of point and > click Wrong. It does have a GUI builder - a very good one - and you can do point and click creation of GUIs (nothing wrong with that) but you can also do pure text editor code only programming with it. > (did anyone mention waste of one's life?), and don't get me started on that > primitive, complete utter waste of language called Object Pascal! I'm no big Pascal fan either but Object Pascal has a decent string library and better container literals than C/C++ and Java. The language itself is a matter of taste and I don't waste my time discussing it. > Python/wxPython/Glade == real programmer's toolkit > > Object Pascal/Delphi == the hobbyist/beginner's toolkit I'm pretty sure that there are more professional software products written in Delphi than in wxPython. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
