There is realbasic, something I don't have anything to do with seeing that I use c/c++ only and a bit of pascal.

If you learn or know c/c++ there is MPW.

Learning how to use it is a bit tricky.

There is also Codewarrior or ThinkC or Symantec C.

For Pascal there is a free version of Think Pascal around.

Also on info-mac there is a lot of programming stuff including examples.

RealBasic is the easiest 3.5 is the latest that will compile for 68k

and they all got different languages ?
i got into some of visual basic but it's easy because there is so many WYSWYG tools. i'm not that good on c++ or all.

i'll try anyway.

There is a Java compiler called "MacJikes v1.2b5" here . . .

http://www.stg.com/employees/sbytnar/projects/MacJikes/#download


from the web page above . . .

Application Requirements
68020 or better or PowerPC Mac.
For very small projects, 4MB will work. I chose the default of 8 or 9MB of RAM for moderate projects like Mindbright's MindTerm ssh-for-java applet and application.
With MacJikes 1.2, memory allocation for MacJikes is done from temporary memory. Basically, you can allocate the "Largest Unused Block" size for MacJikes to do its work. You should not change the memory requirements for the application itself. Check out the STR 1000 resource.
68K system capable of running MacOS with CFM-68K, Thread Manager, and AppleEvents. Basically, if you have MRJ 1.51 installed, you should be ok. CFM-68K is a future requirement, and is not needed for MacJikes v1.1.

Yes, Java is a bit of a pain in the backside at times. Have a go at C++.
