damokles, yeah there were some real cool coders a long time ago before a slew of them left for other languages.
btw how are your teaching programs going?, it was fun to do some screens for a simple one you made ages ago.

well Indi, there was something funny about that program :

There was a teacher reunion one day, where we had to share the good educational programs we knew. And we have to explain exactly how to use it with the pupils. I presented my Valencia.
But another science-teacher presented pHcolor, explaining every single detail, also what pupils had to do before and after using the program. At the end he made the list of the advantages and the flaws of the program.
I was really amused to see that it was used somewhere else.

But I realised that most of my programs are educational.
The next one will be about biology, hehe.

haha, That would have been a buzz to see your program being used elsewhere.

I remember that DBToolz was brand new when I first began programming. My first project was a Dumbo game... As they say, I've come full circle since then...
