I started a new programming language at college Friday (two days ago). This was the language which we started coding. Looks quite a good language to be honest. It looks kinda basic compared to Java, but then again, Java is one of the most advanced languages you can get in my opinion. Java is about on par with C++.
Anyway, back to the topic, I use a program called free pascal IDE, which is basically a Dos compiler and executer all in one, designed for the win*2 platform, it's a good program.
I recommend giving it a try, it's user friendly. Hope this helps!
