[QUOTE="knightjp, post: 493266, member: 33134"] I was interested in learning a programming language and still am... I looked into alot of languages including C++, Perl, VB & Assembly.. In the end I decided that since I was going to use Mac for the rest of my life, ;D , I needed to learn something really unique and that a few peoplee knew... A friend of mine was good at NT scripting for Windows and I soon found out Applescript. Considered the most powerful scripting language out there, Applescript rose from its humble beginnings to become something that one can use to script certain applications or create an entire new application altogether with its own GUI. I bought a book on it... (title will be posted later) and I'm currently learning it. I decided to take a break from it and learn some CLI (command Line interface... equal to Windows DOS or command prompt). By learning some commands and being more familiar with the mac OS system, it would be easier to learn the language and create applications. In choosing a language, learn something that will benefit you in the future. [/QUOTE]
