the 32-bit version can compile itself since 2 weeks now iirc, the thing is that there's some minor bugs that need to be fixed and as there's a new bug every day it's kind of tedious he..

Whoever said that the IDE is not important or insignificant is terribly wrong.

Would you code VB in a notepad? (i know someone said that, but thats retarded dude Tongue) The IDE is the single most important thing aside from a functional compiler, and I think maybe just as important. Without a functional IDE, your whole idea of making it newbie friendly has just been shat on.

I think if someone makes a (good) IDE in VB it will never be ported to FB .. No need for it then .. ?

Eh? Read the other topics: http://forum.qbasicnews.com/viewtopic.php?t=7260

Compiler can't be compiled with any other BASIC than itself, due the size and the new statements/functions used (Enum's, Union's, pointers, etc).

Unless FB is going to handle GUI elements sometime soon, I don't think that making the IDE itself in FB is a very wise idea. Sure, you can make a RHIDE wanabe or something that resembles the original QB IDE, but it's going to take you ages to accomplish and it's probably gonna be supbar anyways. Big Grin

Jofers, I can send you a burned copy of VB6 if you'd like.
I'd knock on wood, but my desk is particle board.

Im sure if someones wanted to they could knock up a C++ IDE in 2 weeks. Basically Notepad with syntax highlighting and a compile button.... and some other sutff. Without much work.

Wow guys, I step out for three weeks and look at what happens Wink

Best of luck to this project. If it is needed, someone could send me a copy to test on a variety of Linux boxes.

See you guys around Wink
