But I digress. You get the point.
Indeed I do. Even in plain old HTML4, I work with nothing but a text editor. I know plenty of "smart" people who insist on using a bloated development program. My pages are small and tight, theirs aren't.
EXACTLY. So you have an understanding of the problem from another direction. It's far, far worse with an IDE wrapped around a compiler, but it's for exactly the same reasons.
Right now I probably shouldn't be making big decisions. Planning all the details for VCF East XII, working on the Lego project, writing a whole other BASIC program for a museum demo, doing a bunch of other cool VCFed stuff I can't yet reveal :), and (oh yeah) doing actual work for my daytime job. Learn a new programming language at the same time? That's something only an E... errr fool would do.
And yet many fools do. :) I'm sure you can do this. Just go do it. You'll be fine. And if you're not, you know where to get help. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
