Lisp to help me get along in CAD but I read the ARX stuff hoping to absorb a little...
I am not much a coder though, I make "ugly-stuff-that-mostly-works-and-always-needs-tweaks-the-nest-time"... and I use python or awk for my data manipulation but that does not really relate to theswamp

Because God prototyped the universe with Lisp,  ported it to C++ and made it visible  via MFC's OnPaint  :laugh:

I voted other although most of my code is in C# or for ARX(C/C++).

My fav's are plain C and Python - from bottom to top.

I like the fact that both of these languages change very little but are quite capable of creating anything you can think of and easily work together :).

Maybe I should have voted other, ObjectARX refers to an API, while the other choices refer to a language (except Vlisp)
I like lisp and C#,  but I "Really" like C++.   :-)

Added C++ to the the poll, but don't see how to change the vote.
