> Just give me a simple and easy to use language that has built in packages for doing most of the common stuff (working with different data formats, network interaction etc.) and has a built in cross platform GUI library, with an IDE that lets you use a designer with drag & drop functionality for laying stuff out, before you connect all of the components in code. Somehow the wisdom of RAD (rapid application development) seems to have waned in the last decade. Racket does all of these afaik outside of the built in WYSIWYG editor for GUIs. There probably are 3rd party designers around though.
