Ha ha ha very funny. No, the post in question suggested using a BASIC for
GUI programming in X under linux.

If you need to escalate this in to a language war, be my guest. I was
suggesting using Tk/Perl for quick programming in X because it works for
me. Use whatever tool you want, but please get the context right if you
want attribute something to me.
