CASL shines here too. The CASL language is similar to Visual Basic or Java Script, but there are some differences as it's target is devices with limited memory and clock speeds. Therefore the CASL language optimizes it's syntax to stay lean and mean. There is a small learning curve for a new CASL developer. On the other hand creating a program is more than just writing code.
More time goes into building the user interface, and debugging.
Once again CASL shines. The CASLide allows the exact same code to be targeted to the Palm OS and Win32 platform. When running on a Win32 platform, there's a full featured debugger with single step, break points, and variable watch options. One excellent illustration of the productivity possible, is what a CASL developer, WagWare , was able to do recently. CASLsoft is very proud that our tool could be used for this tribute.
