I wrote plenty of GUI applications for IBM PCs in the '80s. It wasn't difficult with Turbo Pascal.


Visual Basic 6.0 chiming in from the 90s.


When Turbo Pascal came to the Mac, it made life MUCH easier. I started with MPW.

What was always difficult, was the toolkit. Apple had MacApp (but not when I started). In fact, the original Adobe Photoshop was a Pascal/MacApp (1.0b9) app.
