It's not a case of not wanting to though. It's more a case of spending ages getting nowhere. When you move to a new language having used others for a couple of decades, you want to dive in and do something useful rather than write word count programs (even ones that do it 'functionally'...). So it's a fine line between using your programming knowledge and not spending months trying to get packages to build.

I think the only problem you will have is that I use hard-coded pathnames, so at first you won't find the DLLs to load, then you won't find the HS yearbook photo, or the movies played by the demo. Someone got Celtk running recently without asking a question, so I have failed in my attempt to drive you all to support contracts. Sitting here 24x7 answering email problem reports (not that I get many) probably does not help.


But this is very much my problem and not yours before you pull another weird tennis analogy on me :-)
