Let's not forget Delphi and OptiPerl https://www.uptiv.com/free/optiperl/ Till date I have not seen any IDE that could reproduce its amazing box and line coding feature


Interesting. Some feedback

1. Please add match score

2. Group and fold duplicates

3. Add the year with the sort feature - to identify rip offs


Noted! got a lot of updates shipping soon.


Plus, unlike Delphi, Lazarus had support for the Linux too. Disclosure: Old Delphi dev


Today's Delphi does Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux:

Then you surely remember Kylix.

Modern Delphi does Linux just fine.


Kylix was such a failure! I remember being excited about it and then realized how wrong everything was: starting from licensing to Wine runtime.


Using Wine sounds perfect

Delphi's VCL is tied to much to the Windows API to work without it.

Even Lazarus implements a lot of Windows API like functions. E.g. you call one of these functions on Linux and it converts it to a corresponding gtk/qt function call: https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/lazarus/lazarus/-/blob/mai...

But it is all less reliable because the Lazarus community is much smaller than the Wine community


FWIW, I have found scandum's note on pdqsort in HN https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=scandum


Or, Restya Core as it has Excel-like UI/view. Disclosure: Using it since its private beta



FWIW, Restya Core works good for us. Disclosure: We were privileged to be on their private beta.


IIRC, Google had a rule that you cannot bid on trademark names. Not sure if that changed lately.


Just curious, did you try Hasura too?
