Cool! I assume TRUST stands for "Turbo Rust"? If yes, maybe it would be worth mentioning that in the readme. I doubt that Embarcadero Technologies (the current owners of the Delphi and C++ Builder IDEs, and probably also the owners of other former Borland trademarks) would mind - but then again, it doesn't hurt to stay on the safe side...


I can neither confirm nor deny what the T stands for. However a quick research showed some trademarks are current and renewed.


Random aside: Back in the day Microsoft used the "Quick" prefix and Borland used "Turbo". I am waiting for a QRUST.

That's a load off my mind


One of the best Windows 95 projects


haha - someone should do it


Nowadays it would be called VisualRust365 with CoPilot. And suck.


But we can make a Windows NT 3.51 version of Visual Rust, that doesn't suck.


QRUST - I love that


Of course a pole would love it! (Only mean it positively:-) )


I didn't read it any other way than positively only


Staying on the safe side would be not confirming whether it stands for Turbo Rust or not. "You might very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment."
