Yes, sorry about that it was a spontanious thing. The delete button disappers on the forum except for the last post. I've tried it against my IE and Mozilla.

You know that some of the later PB libraries are written in C don't you? ;p
Still, each language has it's place. I find I am more productive in PB than C, and in C than asm. However, there are places where I need to use C rather than PB, such as where something is not well supported in PB or in my work. Same again for asm vs C.
It's similar for most languages, depending on which level they fit into. C++ allows you the same base capabilites of C but gives you the ability to write in an OO fashion. If there are other languages that give you the same low-level power but are simpler for OO then that's even better.

yes but most of them are also hand-optimized. And still, pb generates asm output, and for that being correct i think fred had to know asm before he'd make an language wich outputs to asm. ^^
