> The main problem visual programming encounters is the sheer number of options you have when you are entering code in text form. Agreed. So maybe the solution is to adopt a completely different approach to "visual" programming. One that doesn't involve entering code, and has a bigger dependence on gestures. I have no idea how it would look like though, but something that would allow you to develop on a touch-screen device is quite intriguing.
