I loved playing with the OO "Turbo Vision" framework back then and getting to learn about OO. Only programming Qt in C++ was equally enjoyable. The modern web is difficult to stand in comparison (though Anders is involved in Typescript).
And that big fat stack of manuals you got with Borland Pascal (which I recall buying used for perhaps equiv of $60 in 1993 - same price as the used 2400 bps modem).
- pjmlp 11y agoTurbo Vision was my introduction to OOP frameworks, then I moved into Object Windows Library with TPW 1.5. However given the nature of Windows APIs, I eventually moved into Turbo C++ for Windows, also with OWL. Never used the VCL, by then I was already fully into C++. Then came the experience with Smalltalk, Oberon, Caml, Prolog and many others. Sadly never had a reason to invest into Delphi.
