When they ask, what is this written in?

[GIRARD Damien]

I say Revolution for the GUI, and C/C++ externals for special features 
that Revolution does not have and that are required when working with 
embeded devices.
This can affraid some customers at the beggining, but after I shown the 
entire Dam-pro Toolkit + applications that we developped for another 
customers, they fully accept
the usage of Revolution. And they will even better accept Revolution if 
the Linux engine become usable and fast as the Windows engine. (Embeded 
= Linux).

All the best!
Damien
