Hi,

I'm asking a favor from all of the 1src members. I would like to start to learn how to program for palm OS. I'm just about to finish highschool and was interested to do it as a hobby. Maybe someday become a pro. I consider myself fairly knowledgable on Palm OS and now want to take it to the next step and contribute.

1) I was wondering if there are any links or anything info that you could post to help me get started.

2) What language is good to start out with. I have heard pascal and pearl? But I thought pascal is becoming out dated and I have had people say start with c++( which sounds like the ultimate language) but does it really take five years to learn?

3) Also, I was wondering what were your feelings and thoughts when your first started? What did you start with and any other useful info?

4) First goal, I would love to learn how to skin and also create small little freeware tracker apps maybe in a couple of years.
Second goal, is to utlimately create games and really good reliable apps like Kinoma 4, Warfare Incorprated, skin UI, !NEW OS!( someday I would like to create a new Operating system that is free[like linux, but for palm]) and so on. Hopefullly in four years or so.

I have no knowledge and My goals are probably really high but I was wondering if you guys could help. I appreciate it a lot.


Thank you again for taking the time to help.



I love my E/E2 and treo 700p.
