looking for new language [cringes]

i'm looking for a new language.. but there are some things i need it to have. i come from a procedural basic - vb background, so

1. i want a nice IDE.

2. i can probably deal with a more 'interesting' language - complexity isn't really an issue as long as it's within reasonable grounds.

2. default XP theming, something vb6 does not have.

3. compiles to win32 and does not require any framework larger than a few megs (.net, java are out).

4. money is no issue.

i've got nothing on for the next month or so, so i can put in time learning things too. i just need some suggestions as to what would be good in my situation.

wow, i think you exhausted it in a manner comparable to the demise of artistic suprematism as caused by Kasimir Malevich's White Square in the early 1900's.

Recursion recursion recursion recursion, recursion recursion.

bump for op's original question

too understand recursion you must first understand recursion.

to recurse understanding, you must first recurse understanding.

to understand understanding, you must first recurse recursion

to recurse standing under, you must first recurse standing under

But how do you understand recursion

This may surprise you, but i actually invented standing under recursion.

This may recurse you, but i actually invented standing under surprises.

This may invent you, but i actually surprised recursion.

This may recurse you, but i actually invented surpise

You may actually understand recursion, but suprisingly I invented this.

Recursion may suprise this, but i actually understand you

60 GET.

This may surprise you, but i actually invented 61 GET.

This thread = recursion

This thread is definantly the worst thread on /prog/. No thread can compare to how bad this thread is.
