    Re: How did you discover thinBasic?

    I found a reference in the PureBasic forum. I've been retired for about a year and been trying to find a Windows based programming language to relearn past skills. Did some programming, mostly Turbo Pascal, in MSDOS decaded ago, but have a lot to learn and relearn. So far after months of searching Thinbasic looks to be the best thing I've found so far. Hope to find some tutorials and help for this very rust ex-programmer

    Most of my experiance is electronics hardware based, mostly in process control and monitoring using instrumentation hardware.

    Nice product and forum, hope to learn a lot.

    Like others, I found it during a web search for a Windows Basic that will help me set up a small home based SCADA system, purely for fun and learning.

    I'm recently retired, spent 40 years in automation and electronics.

    Completely a newbie at this language so I'm searching for a method to learn as quickly as possible.

    Open to any helpfull sugeestions.

    And by the way, like your site.

    Hi johni, thanks for your post.

    Regarding [wiki=SCADA]SCADA[/wiki] system I have no idea.
    Please create another post (in order not to go out of topic in present one) and we will try to help you. thinBasic can do a lot of things but to help we need a precise point where to start.

    Ciao

    I'm truly thankful ....

    To Whom It May Concern;

    I wish to congratulate Eros Olmi & others who have made thin BASIC a far more Superior IDE that out weights all others that I’ve tried over the years in my searching for such a programming tool for windows. As of this time I’ll continue to stick to thinBASIC for good! Anyhow I’m still learning as novice programmer. No matter how much one knows, there’s more to explore! Looking fore-ward to mingle with all my new programming friends, to help me in the right direction!

    Sincerely,
    Richard West, from Holdrege, NE USA
