I will give builder a go...
I remember a couple of years ago I had the free version of C++ Builder 3.0 which without knowing a single thing about C++ (didnt even know what a variable or anything was) managed to make a text editor and stuff, quite good, but I do remember there being stuff specific to is like Application.Terminate() and stuff... I am goind to do anything useful in it I need to know all that stuff...
I remember giving it up because I sent it to a mate who didnt have the runtimes... I dont want to cart big mofo runtimes around with me or expect people to dig around themselves for them, becuase they wont. Is there away to get them to link in with the project or something? any help would be greatfull...
