Hey Mac what's up?

Well I've been reading help files and looking at Linda's tuts on PowerPoint,
but I can't say I'm any better off than I was, but that's my bad not the
instruction.  First, I've got to get the concept of the visual and audio
effect, and see ways in which PowerPoint is used.

I am a really nonvisual person.  I do a lot of things far different than
most sighted and blind people, not because my way necessarily works better,
but just because I've always been the odd man out.  Kind of like it that way
to.

    I was reading on Linda's site that Vic takes presentations and turns
them
into executible files.

I was thinking about doing something similar to that, but in a different way
and using a different program.

I would like to try and make a legal presentation that would walk someone
through different categories of legal research.  I want to put it on a CD
and have it kind of run like "flash' I guess.  I guess I could try to learn
flash, but I'm wondering if c++ could just as easily do the job.

I kind of like that type of programming language.  I played around with C
and .exe files as well as jcl files a long long time ago, and I've forgotten
all that I learned, but the logic is still there, I think.

I'd like to get back to some of this stuff that I used to be familiar with.
also it seems that c++ books are free for the taking, is it still used by
programmers today, or is it a rarity when one uses it.  I realize underlying
components of course still use the concepts.

Well, I didn't mean to get astray here and I was going to just ask Vic if he
did that stuff in C++.
sorry, I won't do this again, but since I typed this, I might as well  send
it.

Rex
