I've been considering what to do with this thread for a while. The obvious first response is "Rydian, just rewrite it like you tend to do", but the issue is that "programming" is a very large category. Does somebody want to do simple HTML+CSS stuff for a website, or do they need server-side scripting? Are they going to be needing any additional components, such as databases? Would they be better off with an interpreted or a compiled language? Do they need a wide library of available functions, or will they be fine making their own? Is their target platform one that even has libraries available, or that certain languages can run on? Are they free to jump right into a certain language, or are they trying to do something that would require technical understanding at a more basic level first? Is a high-level language even an option?
I'm going to unsticky this and just leave it up to each person to ask themselves. This isn't too common of a question so the forums won't exactly get flooded, and it's a question that's best answered on a case-by-case basis, since a person's intentions can vary so wildly, so the range of info available to them would too.
