jim, wich higher leval one is good for database stuff and sql ? java/jdbc , python (what database/sql hooks are there) , perl or tcl/tk Whats being used on the database end ? ie like dbase/delphi/fox ect... but more up to date with the times ? Java seems to make you write a lot of code from the snippets I have sean , what is there for python as far as databse/sql hooks ? What do you use for quick and dirty databse apps similar to paradox/delphi or dbase ? All I have seen was pgaccess quit a while ago , has it improved any. Notheing else has the more advanced stuff like delhi and its data abstraction and fdata componments. Delphi was real east to slap stuff together real fast , then clean it up later.
If you want to learn a higher level language, you might want to look at Python. Emacs would work with that too.
What language you want to work in would drive the compiler options.

I would like to know where to start in Linux programing- I started to read some information on text editors, what do I need to know , also info on compilers? Can I use the installed XEmacs on 6.3 or do I need gcc and gcc frontend to start?
Thanks Darrell PS- I am a newbie to Linux and starting programming VB-only for my job, but I want a broader base.
