The primary reason that I tend to recommend languages like tcl, etc. before java is that one can focus more quickly on the problem solution without having the full weight of a gui development framework as a hurdle. And in fact, that's even an argument for developing against a web framework. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Frank W.

Yes, there are performance concerns with Java GUIs, but done right you can deal with most of those. Gives you the option of switching OSs later should you decide that serves you better. I agree with Larry... if you can stay away from C/C++ at this point, you'll probably be happier for it. 4GL's like Java are up to the challenge these days, why not let them save you from some hassles? //www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
