[QUOTE="samuel337, post: 5896, member: 10347"] Whoops, I should have clarified this. Perl and python are great for command line apps but I don't think you can use them to create GUI apps (I might be wrong, especially about python...). Both C# and java have good IDEs that make GUI creation pretty easy though (C# - CSharpDevelop, java - Eclipse). I reckon C# is similar to java, but I've never actually learnt java so I can't really comment. Mono is a replacement for the .net framework - so you only need to install one or the other. The java virtual machine is required to run java apps, not .net apps. .NET and java work by taking your code (C# or java), converting it into an intermediate language (.NET - MSIL, java - bytecode) which then gets interpreted by the respective runtime which runs the app. Sam [/QUOTE]
