[Item Permalink] Programming on Mac OS X -- Comment()
I'm a Fortran programmer, because I work with computational science. However, every now and then it is nice to do some graphics, and experiment with graphics-related ideas. I have been using Mathematica and Matlab for this kind of work.

Recently I discovered two nice (and free) graphical programming tools for Mac OS X: ACSLogo and F-Script. I once made quite a lot of graphics with a Logo-like language, and ACSLogo seems to be a competent implementation. F-Script on the other hand provides a nice interface to the windowing environment on Mac OS X - you can experiment on the fly.
