I simply can't imagine how I used to do programming without Intellisense. Then again, my office used to have several thick reference books that were always open and printouts of tech sheets on the hardware and microprocessors I was often working with. How things have changed.

I think I was one the last old school programmers, C (North C) on an Amiga 500 (2 Disk drives & 512K upgrade!). Once you got to be able to translate the 'almost' UNIX error messages  , I wasn't too bad...
Visual Studio and the like made us lazy!

Me too. Keepin' it real.
No Visual Studio on OpenVMS.

Nice. That's how I do it, except I wrote my own little IDE so at least I can compile by clicking a button.
Visual Studio slows me down.

Power shell IDE's are for weaklings!
Off Topic I have written a test routine for some stepper motors that cause them to play the imperial march!

After spending loads of time writing an installer in C#, my CEO decided to revert to Inno Setup (Pascal scripting) again ...

Twas beaten into me Pascal has no place in industry it compiles to P-Code... fast forward a few years and we have MSIL...

Dear ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) there's a script version?
|

Yes, Inno Setup adds a lightweight Pascal scripting engine to your setup, it is quite good and flexible in fact. But as a C# programmer I find the Pascal syntax awful.
