Thanks for this suggestion marlon. It is indeed C++ I want to learn,
because my goal is to work with the symbian SDK's, which from what I've been
reading up about, uses C++ as one of it's most popular languages. I may be
mistaken, but as far as I understand, it's the only language that actually
communicates directly with the operating system without some type of third
party interpreter, and it uses symbian's *.sis packaging.
With All Respect,
Upshaw, LaMar T
