Front page index has been updated.

And I should put another one in shouldn't I?

Scala

object HelloUbuntu {
	def main(args: Array[String]) {
		val name = readLine("Hi! What's your name?\n")
		println("Hello, " + name + "! Welcome to Ubuntu!")
	}
}

Harbour

Well, who would have thought that 3.5 years down the line there would still be new entries for this thread!

Here is the program in Harbour:

function Main()
   LOCAL nme
   nme := __ACCEPT("Hi! What's your name? ")
   ? "Hello, " + nme + ". Welcome to Ubuntu!"
return Nil

Harbour is a free software (true) compiler for the xBase superset language often referred to as Clipper (the language that was implemented by the compiler CA-Cl*pper). That may sound very old-fashioned but there is still a lot of Clipper code floating around in one form or another. There are a confusing number of free and commercial 'forks'.

Harbour works with file based dbf/ntx on Windows but can work with mySQL and SQLite under Linux (and Windows). Harbour is moving (in several directions at once!) to a marriage with QT to provide a true Linux gui.

C (again) [as a oneliner]

#include <stdio.h>
int main( void ){char name[64];printf("What is your name?');scanf("%s", name);printf("Hello, %s, and welcome to Ubuntu!", name);return 0;}

Haskell again, but this one is in point-free style:

main = putStrLn "What is your name?" >> (putStrLn . ("Helllo " ++) =<< getLine)

Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw/prompt/;

my $name = prompt("Hi, What is your name?");

print "Hello \L\u$name\E, Welcome to Ubuntu!\n";

Result:

[{bulldog}~]$./name.pl
Hi, What is your name? bULlDoG
Hello Bulldog, Welcome to Ubuntu!
[{bulldog}~]$
