ArchiMark a good solution and works very fine it´s using the Paralell Desktops, I use in my mac mini using the "integration mode" and it´s very nice... you don´t show windows in any part, only shows the desktop of mac os... another good point it´s not use Win 7, using some special XP  , I found one, only weithgs 300 mB ~, and don´t consume too much requisites...

Agree and thanks for the suggestion, mentalthink.....

Didn't mention it before, but I use Parallel Desktop...recently upgraded to new version, works great....

Hi Archimark, I think some coleague makes works in Apple, I don´t try but comment, if I don´t remenber bad... was using not wine else the "other" I don´t rebember the name... and seems works.. I think in the forum has a thread...

There was progress on a Mac IDE, but it never got finished unfortunately...

Thanks guys for your input.....too bad about the Mac IDE....as I do use a MacBook at home....

Wow! That's very kind of you, darmakwolf!

Everyone here is so nice, I better be good and start studying.....

THANK YOU, erico and kanonet for such detailed and helpful replies. Greatly appreciate it and the warm welcome to this forum....

I do have a little Win7 laptop, so, I can run GLBasic on it....I also dual boot linux on it too...plus OSX at home and then have other pocketable linux devices too. So, you can see why I am interested in the ability to compile for different OS's...

GLBasic does sound good with lots of features, yet, easier to learn compared to some other languages...

I will certainly give GLBasic a try and ask for help here if I need it (I'm sure I'll have some questions....)....

Thanks!

Hi,

Just discovered GLBasic today. So, trying to make sure I understand how it all works...hope someone can please answer my noob questions....

1.  Does the GLBasic IDE only run in Windows or is it available for other platforms?

2.  Do you need the paid version in order to compile for multiple OS's?

3.  Do you recommend GLBasic for a code noob like myself or should I look at other Basic?

I have read several code books (basic, C, python, etc...) the past few years, so, do have some very basic understanding of fundamental programming concepts, but never really got very far beyond that besides doing some simple exercises and tutorials in the books.

My interests are to learn how to put together an actual program and develop for multiple OS's (Pandora, OSX, Linux, etc...) once I'm able to develop a program. Doing this for my own interest as hobbyist at this point. Want to learn....

Thanks for any and all input!

Mark
