I used RealBasic myself. While those were not really "many years" I'd
absolutely say it was wasted time.
But, perhaps, you cannot break the rule that you must walk before you
crawl, no matter how little you now use crawling as your main method
of transportation.
I disagree. When (many) others already have made the experience that
crawling is not the way to go (sic) there's generally no real need to
try it yourself. That's why I'd recommend to not use RealBasic. I tried
and I think it's not worth it. There will, of course, be always
exceptions. After all, there *are* cases where it's better to crawl
than to walk. ;-)
it bothers me that I cannot program in it without a web browser fixed
firmly on the documentation.
It bothers you that you cannot remember every method that you may ever
use?
For a beginner, RealBasic offers the possibility of actually knowing
everything there is,
No, it does not. It limits you to only do what RealBasic is capable of.
Well, enough off topic talk. Back to something useful ...
bye. Andreas.
