Tristan,
They even do a free copy of the Last Major Version if you register with
them. I looked at it a while back and its quite good but the IDE is like
going back in time about 15 years.

No Linky then Allen?

Sounds too good to be true, shame it's got basic in the name <BG>!

Conversation: [NF] Realbasic
Subject: [NF] Realbasic

I noticed a fox.wikis.com entry from Kevin Cully about this - it's sort of a
VB6 clone that compiles to native Windows, Linux and Mac executables, and
has an IDE for each of those platforms as well. It has its own single user
db, and can talk to MySQL and any ODBC database driver.

Surely coupled with MySQL this is the holy grail for cross-platform
database-centric development? I've heard and seen good things about
Realbasic from the indie games development world, but is there anyone using
it in anger for the sort of things we do with VFP ??
