I've choosed the database (mysql), but I don't know how I'm going to build interface . I doesn't matter if it is going to be character based or graphical. Here in Brazil there are many DOS programs in the market, in fact, in my niche the good programs are written to DOS. I'm worried about productivity and portability. My background is Turbo Pascal, Delphi, Windows and as you can see I'm new to C++ world, but I can't wait until Borland make Delphi for Linux to have a linux application. I want to hear your opinion about what library I should use. This is crucial to my project, and in my city (and many cities around) there isn't any kind of unix application development under way, therefore I highly depend on the support of this list. Thanks in advance, and sorry my english Geraldo Lopes de Souza -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com
