He also wrote Hypercard, and I'd really like to see a modern successor which had the attributes:
- stand-alone desktop app (and/or app for iPad on app store)
- simple syntax (block diagramming like Scratch/Blockly seems a natural fit)
- simple creation/arrangement of standard GUI elements (so that localization and accessibility still work)
- being opensource (still feeling burned by having donated to Runtime Revolution/Livecode's opensource effort)
(so basically a modern, opensource alternative to VisualBasic, and yes, I keep asking about this --- there are lots of programs in this space, but none are quite as easy/simple as to have gotten me past the hurdle of download/install/actually try making something/being successful at it, and I freely admit I'm a mediocre programmer with not enough time who is bogged down on his current project....)
