REALbasic learning source - Version: 2009.4.0.0, 11/22/2009 05:18AM PST

REALbasic is a easy to learn cross-platform programming language. It offers everything you need to make nice applications for Linux, Mac or Windows. But there was always a problem with getting the knowledge about this language. Now after years arose a great learning resource for REALbasic - http://realbasic.tutspolis.com/

People should be aware that RealBasic is *not* backwards compatible--if you write a program in RealBasic, it won't even open in the version they put out 5 years from now. My library of hundreds of RealBasic programs (that were written between 2001 and 2005) is totally useless now because none of them will open in the 2008 and 2009 versions (I've talked to RealBasic staff about this and they claim that this phenomenon is totally normal...sure it is).
Here is the response I got from RealBasic when I asked why my programs won't even OPEN in the new version:
"Actually, 5 years is a long time to expect something to work without any changes to the project. I could understand expecting a text document to open after 5 years but development tools are much more complex because of OS changes and things like that. I have used a lot of programming tools (not just REALbasic) and have never seen one that did not require changes over the years."

You can get REALbasic personal edition (normally $99) as part of the $50 bundle at http://www.themacsale.com/index.php, and if you use the code REALCUSTOMER then you'll get 10% off as well
