Developer Languages?

Off-Topic

Hi,
I am making a snippet manager and would just like some input from members as to what languages to include.
At the moment I have the following choices:

C C++ C# CSS HTML5 Java Javascript Objective-C PHP Python Ruby Xojo

Is it best to include Xojo - or is it better to simply put Basic in its place?
If I do a Google search for programming languages I get an enormous list, so I just need the most popular ones.

Thank you all in advance.

Please use Xojo and Basic separately. While there are similarities, there are also enough differences that mixing the two would probably end up making finding working code very confusing. Xojo is the name of the language as well as the product.

Take a look at Dash (free-donation-ware). That would be hard to beat. :slight_smile:

I would recommend that you allow the end user to define his own language categories, in addition to the predefined ones you supply. You can’t possibly predict all the variations out there.

Anybody familiar with Dibol (later DBL)? :wink:

Here’s the default list from Code Collector Pro, as @Tim Hare recommended CCP lets you add your own languages.

C C++ CSS HTML HTML (Rails) Java Objective-C Objective-C++ Other PHP Ruby Ruby on Rails SQL (Rails)

If it’s just based on current popularity, you could check out the TIOBE index at http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html
