I'd say make a single page, with a list of all the languages you have
material for. Then when the user opens that link they are taken to a page
where the page relates to that language only, and with headings you divide
that page into things like: tutorials, ides, books, online resources, code
samples etc. That way the front page is clutter free, each language gets its
own page/section, and things are easier to find that way IMO...

HTH, D!J!X!

Hello, Elf,

I would be willing to write the page.  I can send it to you and you could
link it to your site. I don't have website hosting at the moment or I'd do
it.  It would make much more sense to place it in a frequented site like
yours or the blind developers' site though.

Could structure it by giving each language a heading with links to the
corresponding tutorials in an unordered list.  Make it quick to navigate
that way.  Would also make sense to link any editors, ide's and compilers
within it as well so it's a one-stop experience.  I think this would make
for a flexible format because if someone wants to let us know about a link
to tutorials for a language we don't have, all we have to do is add a
heading for it

Any thoughts?

ps There's another Alex out here somewhere. Figured I'd sign with my last
initial to keep confusion to a minimum.

I just don't have the time right now to do decent updating on the grab
bag since I have to have the beta version of my pencil and paper RPG
game ready to roll in a few months and am short on useable time as it
is

Blindprogramming.com seems like it's dead. This thread about tutorials
& stuff is good, but it remains on this list. Any possibility we can
get a wiki or something in which to store this info?
