But I would believe ruby would be a nice choice of language, although there isn't any really good newbie books or documentation. In november I believe there's a teach yourself ruby in xxx time book coming out...It could contain some good information for you (although I have a struggling relationsship with teach yourself xxx in xx time books)... Perhaps you should look at python, it should be easy to learn, and i believe there's alot of newbie material out there. But ofcourse, python is not as kewl as ruby. I dunno...just my 2 cents...

I'm new to programming and I was told that Ruby was EZ. But I know no programming at all and the on line book for the newes take on Ruby, I don't understand it as far as I can tell It would be cool to know, But I need some help. If anyone out there can help with getting started I would be so happy. A would be Ruby programmer, Michael L. Crossland --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
