What about a FORTRAN derivative? FORTRAN has been around for years, and is still a popular programming language at Universities for math and science. Almost any mentor would know it, as many of them have taken a course in this language in college. It is incredibly easy to learn, and it is really portable. Autonomous coding by dead reckoning would be easy to - just use the etime() function. Are there any RCs, stamps, or chips that support this??? Honestly, though, I really like PBasic for this purpose. THough it is slow and awkward, it gets the job done. C# is absolute crap for an application like this (or any application...sorry, but it absolutely sucks), C is a little archaic, Java is too awkward and slow, and C++ seems unlikely for various reasons. If they do change it, it will probably be to a language similar to PBasic, probably another BASIC derivative (hopefully this one will be faster and allow more variables/variable space).
