I commented on what I am aware of - there's a difference. There's really no need to be rude.
Not rude, just correcting your misstatements and explaining facts you are not aware of.  I have no dog in the fight, as I am not an IWB user, I merely followed the products when the Larry's took over, just as I have followed many other indie languages..
Would you be good enough to point out my misstatements?

You were the one initially trying to correct me.  Could you point out my misstatements?

'indie languages'...?
This is a term I have read repeatedly over the last few weeks, but I don't know what it means. Can someone explain?

An indie language is a language put out by an indie developer or a small company and not a major company.  For example, Intel's compilers and Microsoft's compilers, Delphi/C++ Builder (insert name of whoever owns them this week) would not be indie languages.  Personally, I never considered PowerBasic to be an indie language, but in view of recent financial revelations I might change my mind on that.
