The computer language with the most games and for that matter the most
software written in it is commodore basic. That means enough people
found that language easy enough to learn to use and enjoyable enough
that they unlike many people after having bought a computer didn't just
put it in the closet because they couldn't figure it out. Since you
very likely don't have a commodore or commodore basic at your disposal,
Microsoft has provided you with an alternative known as visualbasic
which is part of dot net in several versions and flavors.

Subject: RE: VB.net And Windoweyes Scripting
Speaking of .net languages, remember in my last email to you that I told
you
that I'm drawn to them? Well, I constantly have friends reminding me
that I
should focus on other languages too. Take for example, my eventual
desire
to learn C#. I in no way want to be a programmer for a career, but
rather
for enjoyment. If so, am I good having C# and JAWS script under my belt
to
be able to create things like games, and in turn to help the blind
community
succeed with a few extra scripts added in to the mix? Or is it
essential in
this world that I learn something like C++ even though C# has it's roots
there? Any input would be good.
Thanks guys,
Katherine

Yes, the VB.NET fruit basket on Script Central is my latest. As far as
I remember, the only necessary COM reference in VS would be to
WinEyes.dll. VS should then automatically generate an Interop assembly,
a "COM Callable Wrapper." There some deployment related issues I can
touch on later if you decide to distribute your VB.NET-based Window-Eyes
script.
