If I have to write somesting with a GUI really fast at work (Windows only) I use .NET (C# or Basic) because the runtimes are already there.
I really like Visual Studio's GUI builder! It's really uncomplicated to build a GUI and I also like the .Net platform a lot  |

Scheme definitely! All the parentheses of lisp (but with some pre-made functions). The one I use the most though has to be C++. |

C++/Qt when I need to go multiplatform.
I use wxWidgets for it  |

I have, in the past, programmed in APL, fortran, pascal, basic, visual basic, C, C+, REXX and some others (including some significant DB programming such as FOXPRO) and the best programming language (for me) is Python.

I use wxWidgets for it Aah, but Qt does *everything*. It is not just a gui library. wxWigets has started trying to do it all, but lacks the functionality yet. |

I used to write Algol, Fortran, PL/1, RPG and the odd bit of assembler.
By all accounts, PL/I was quite the thing. Common Lisp, my lisp dialect of choice, has a condition system (think exceptions on steroids) inspired by PL/I. Scheme definitely! All the parentheses of lisp (but with some pre-made functions). I honestly didn't expect anyone to pick Scheme. I used to be a Scheme partisan, but so many centuries of man-hours and thinking by clever people has gone into CL that these days I stick with it for my personal programming projects. If I tried to use it at work, my colleagues might hunt me down, but perhaps some day... |

The choice between the two for me was made by the websites: schemers.org because schemers' design shows that someone is obviously passionate about the language. No other programming site I have found actually thought to do the site like the language. |

Example? What can do Qt and can't wxWidgets? |

Well, Qt has its own replacements for many of the standard library C++ functions, that usually work better. It also keeps alternating between having and not having audio, as well as including XML, TCP/UDP, threads, and many other such things. I don't know how many of those are in wxWidgets.
Plus it has foreach, which I love.
(And I keep wanting to punctuate this entirely with a full-stop. For example, "Plus it has foreach. Which I love" is what I had originally written. I'm not sure why.)

There are wxThread, wxTCPClient/wxTCPServer, wxSound, wxXMLDocument and others. wxArray, wxList, wxString are replacements for standard C++ library. Full class reference http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8/wx_classref.html |

I have, in the past, programmed in APL, Yikes! I know ... and on a green screen terminal (one that looked like something out of a 60's Science Fiction movie). As I recall it was the array handling that made it so sh** hot and I learned to program some quite significant stuff on just one line but I could never really get my head around it (I think that was where I heard about "reverse polish notations") nor around the fact that it was an interpreted language written in C!!!! Thankfully I rapidly moved on to dBase and then FOXPRO. Keke |

Any SQL libraries? Built in language? Qt has an ECMAscript parser in it. |
