Re: [computer-go] C/C++ programmer ready to try new language

 So what do the readers recommend I look into first?
I would recommend Java. I use Java as a better C++ and find that it serves me well. GCJ will compile to a binary executable and run most of the normal C/C++ optimisations on it. Internationalisation, portability, debugging, serialisation and compression code are things I've found really useful.

As other people have mentioned, you almost certainly want to move to something with an IDE for your platform, because it helps greatly to overcome the initial hurdles of learning the language. Having local experts to discuss the language with may also be helpful.
