[DUG] Company closing

It's written in C# - it would take a lot more than Android to make me walk
thru the gates into that case sensitivity and curly brace hell.

 

For one thing I don't have an Android phone, and for another I have no
interest in getting one.

Is it a compiler?  Technically I mean - I'd call it a translator.  :)

I wonder how far it can go though, beyond the simple examples I mean.

Translating a push button and a call to ShowMessage() is one thing.  Being
able to translate a complex application with all the libraries that Android
must support strikes me as a number of orders of magnitude more complex.
