Then you'll love forth especially using a block edit form of forth rather
than ascii files for the same reasons. Only thing is, there's almost no
hardware forth cannot run and it is what controls the space shuttles.

Java?
I'd rather not wait 10 minutes for a for loop to complete 5 itterations,
thanks though.
C++ is very "character building," and has many uses beyond API calls.
C++ Just
because you can do something higher level doesn't mean it needs to be done.
I like the control and the ability to control everything with c/c++, as
other programmers do. It also teaches you the internals of your operating
system and compilers, without just floating around there like every other
person who uses a high level language and just programs without knowing how
things work.
Thanks,

My programs don't have bugs, they're called randomly added features.
