I was wondering if one of the developers would please go a little into the developement process of TS. I am an aspiring programmer and would like to know about the tools and languages used to make this great app. My freind says you guys wrote TS in C. I'm wondering if you did why you all didn't port it to linux?
What language/languages did you folks use to make TS.
Did you use MSFC and what ide did you use?
Do you use directX? If so, how does a programmer interface with directX.
Your response is appreciated.

A quick peek in the binary suggests that it was built with Delphi, which is essentially Pascal with some GUI and DB support. I expect the Linux versions were ported using Kylix. (Presumably a commercial license is used, since the project is not open source and free Kylix requires open source.)

So you used delphi? Is that language object oriented? What did you use to make the interface? Was the whole program written in delphi?
