What is REALbasic 5.x & 5.5.5?

REALbasic 5.0 was released in late 2002 and constitutes a major upgrade from previous RB releases by introducing Linux/x86.

Version 5.5.5 from 2005 was the last version to run natively in Mac OS 9 and the last to work in the SheepShaver emulator also and is overall an excellent last release for Classic, being very stable, with hundreds of bug fixes from 5.0.

It comes with hundreds of example projects that you can inspire yours from and it compiles to Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, Linux/x86 and Windows 98 or higher.  You can customize all the interface colors to your liking.  REALBasic 5.5.5 supports databases, OpenGL 3D surfaces, 2D canvases, QuickTime, OLE and Microsoft Office integration.  This version can also show programming tips in a small window while you work.
