Hi all,

I'm looking for recommendations for a PC software development platform. =20
My intention is to build standalone UI-based apps that would connect to=20
my embedded projects via serial/USB, mostly so I can have others=20
(customers) change settings, view details, etc during development.

Priorities are simplicity (ie: easy to learn and use), and generates=20
relatively non-bloated code.  I don't mind investing time in learning=20
some tool, as long as it's documented properly (ie:  comes with its own=20
tutorials, so I don't have to chase down tutorials/examples around the=20
internet).  I don't mind paying for it within reason (say within a=20
couple hundred dollars for now).  I'm fluent with C, and Pascal/Basic is=20
fine also.  If it's cross-platform that would be a plus.

So far, I'm looking at Processing, Xojo and Visual Basic.  I hear that I=20
can compile Python, but it seems that the libraries, etc are strewn all=20
over the place.  Any other recommendations?

Cheers,
-Neil
