ActiveX and CGI would be interface standards.
Allegro is a library.

Thank you very much for your answer, again.

So it is possible to create a category: APIs/Libraries? Because a API is a group of different libraries?

And can you say me other interfaces beside ActiveX and CGI? And it is possible to write me other libraries beside Allegro?

I would be very pleased about your help, again!

Many thanks

HTML = markup language

Many thanks for this tip, I will consider it but please answer my question in the last message. That would be very nice and you can help me enormously!

With kind regards, Tino!

COM is another interface standard. There are a couple of other interface standards that I can think of (WOSA hooks, for example) but I don''t remember their proper names.

Other libraries include ClanLib, libjpeg, libpng, libxpm, and on and on.

Properly I think APIs and Libraries should be separate categories, but for each library there is one API (sometimes named the same thing).

Thank you very much, again:

Now I have finished the categories, please have a look and say me whether it is correct:

APIs: DirectX, OpenGL, Winsock
Compiler: Borland C++ Builder, DJGPP, Delphi, Turbo C++, Visual C++
Interfaces: ActiveX, CGI, COM
Kinds of programming: AI programming, game programming, math programming
Libraries: Allegro, SDK, MFC
Programming languages/interpreter: Ada, Assembly, ASP, Basic, C / C++, Perl, COBOL, HTML/DHTML/VRML/XML/CSS
Java/java-script, Pascal, QBasic, RealBasic

It would be very nice if somebody can answer my question!

Many thanks!

SDK stands for software development kit, I don''t think it qualifies as a library. Unless there''s a library called SDK that I don''t know about. (And if so, the creator should be beaten.)

OK!

But are all other categories with their content correct?

Thank you very much!

Category: Programming languages: HTML/DHTML/CSS

Ok, I don''t know if anyone said this yet, but HTML is NOT a programming language. It is called Hyper Text Markup Language because it is a format and not because it is a programming language. HTML has no logic at all! The only time HTML ever has logic in it is when you use java-script or vbscript or whatever. If you call HTML a language, then call .rtf a language or call .txt a language. It tears me up inside that you could not classify VB as a programming language and you classified HTML as one. Well, don''t worry, I get that all the time. Sorry if I''m complaining too much.

Oh, well...what he said.
