Hello Adi,

I wouldn't say that iziBasic is "over" PP.
These 2 tools are quite different even though very close in the way that iziBasic was developed in PP.
Let me try to give you pros and cons in a few lines, knowing that my own opinion is of course somehow not very objective...

PP:
= Pascal syntax
+ real 68k/ARM compiler, so fast execution
+ access to all Palm OS APIs
- Palm standard programming, which is quite time taking to develop programs' skeletons
- can be quite frustrating when discovering Palm programming (but just like C or many other compilers)

iziBasic:
= Basic syntax
- 68k runtime compiler, so slower execution, routines requiring fast execution can still be written using PP applets
- access to all Palm OS APIs but by using PP applets (so you also need to learn PP for the missing API calls)
+ quick developing especially by newbies in Palm programming
+ ViziBasic add-in to develop GUI programs

So, now, what do I do? I usually code my major projects in PP (iziBasic itself of course, SysInfo) but tend to develop more and more using iziBasic (TCtools, ViziBasic itself) & quick PP applets.
Another example: Khertan started with iziBasic and he now tends to migrate his major project(s?) to some PP only code.

Others thoughts would be great my friends.

Cheers,
aldweb
