Could we have Kale's PureBASIC book on the support menu under documentation links? Yes it's that good (read it cover to cover).

http://www.pb-beginners.co.uk/

Anybody new to programming or coming from other languages (like myself) would find this book very helpful indeed.

My opinion:

I doubt it will hurt anyone. I believe its something people can use, and i actually think the book will have(and is gaining) a positive reaction of the general purebasic interest..

I also think there should be a link to blueznl's survival guide.!

Thanks for the link, Steve.

I trust Steve's recommendations enough to consider strongly buying the book! Well done, Kale!

Yes, I've just placed an order for your book, Kale!

I have a week off next week to do some programming, but I doubt your book will arrive on time, so I might have to do the programming in Blitz instead! :)

There use to be a link to a free PDF for purebasic. Does anyone know where that might have gone?

It's good to see you here rob. I thought that you were a Blitz person only.

Hey, what are you doing here, dna? In my case, I must have purchased PureBasic some time ago, again on Steve's recommendation, but have yet to use it to any extent - a book or documentation always helps me use any programming language much better.

Right now, I'm still busy programming in Blitz... Still waiting for your PureBasic book, Kale! ;)
