I've probably missed off loads. I've left out things like VBA as I consider them to be a subset of VB personally.

IBM RPG

That brings back scary memories of something which went horribly wrong.

I first got in to programming at home, with my humble Atari 400 and BASIC when I was about 12.

I then moved up to an Atari 520STFM and STOS when I was about 19.

At that time, I was writing a lot of utilities for D&D. I worked as a progress chaser for Fords.

I remember applying for an internal job as an "RPG Programmer", and I got pretty excited.

I couldn't work out how a D&D Character Generation Program in Basic would factor in to making motor cars, but then again, it was not my job to tell fords what they wanted or not, so I applied for the role.

It was an interesting interview to say the least.

Interviewer : "So what's your experience with RPG?"

Me : "Well, naturally I play the system and I have a L12 Elven Wizard. This gives me a very good appreciation of how to translate the mechanics of the system in to an RPG program which is what I assume you are looking for."

Interviewer : "Duh ?"

Me : "Well, RPG is a language designed for role-playing systems, of which I have written my own programs in STOS, which could be ported across if you are interested. I've written dice-rollers, weather generators, even random dungeon generators."

Interviewer : "Duh ?"

Me : "So, as you can see, I'm pretty clued up on this RPG malarkey and I have plenty of experience to get stuck in."

It all ended there, and ever since, I'd always been deeply suspicious of acronymns.
