installing the bloodshed ide with current version of lazerus or fpc

This is a simple guie to installing the bloodshed dev ide with lazarus. The reason why I did this is that it makes it simplier to compile fpc code because you don't have to worry about why you are compiling a form you do not want or copying something and then creating a new project out of it(I haven't fully tested the latter yet but it compiles).Instead I get around a problem I had with both lazarus and borland c++ 4.0 (also the reason I bought microsoft c ) I can just click on code to bring up the editor and the ide is much better than the default that is provided with fpc. First you would go to the bloodshed page and download what they call devolopment pascal. This is just an older version of fpc with the ide. Next you would install it. After you install devopment pascal you need to go into the folder and copy the contents and then go the the lazarus folder next you keep going until you are in the fpc folder and then you paste. When you are promted to rewrite over an old folder you need to press no because these are from an older version of pascal. Now you can create a shortcut and copy it to where you wish. This method can also be used with fpc (without lazarus).



GLEditor may also come in handy because it gives you the line numbers. (unless I missed that feature in lazarus and if I did I will revise my remarks) very helpfull for finding runtime errors

New Panda 3d by disney

I am looking at panda 3d by the disney people. python and c++ bindings, I didn't see rectangle they have point but no rectangle, what I was after was boom you get a box and then text in the box and not have to worry about a copywrite.. clearly not what they entended the software for. But something to practice with. Some of the stuff is beyond my graphics card. You can steal 3d pictures that are from maya and all those 3ds files (at least first impressions). I feel doomed though, I not sure why I was getting a different person everyday at the temp place, I always suspect it is the state reserves or something.. It seemed liked they were trying to hurt me or trying to have me hurt in unison to the crap around my apartment.
Back to the topic at hand, They have there version as ppython and I have no idea as of yet how they managed to get shortcuts without using batch files. You would type ppython myprogram.py or better yet open word pad up and save with the extention bat without formating. That comes out to 1kb whatever they did comes out to 2 kb but is more likely to work with the next version of windows. It is kinda a pain a bunch of command line programs for conversion and stuff it just cries out for a user interface to make it easier to use. Steve Jobs being the large shareholder that he is in disney probily has something like that for them (at least on the mac side of the computer). It does seem to be a little slow in python for the asteroids game but it realy isn't built for 2d if I understand what they are doing correctly.

skillsofts c module

Do I recomend skillsofts c program as the first introduction to c. The answer to that is no.. Go out write something in c and ignore any thing or one who would tell you that you are good or bad at it and then take the skillsofts course. The manpower people told me I can only have two of them open at once. I supose it is one for me, and one for them (Realy both are for me but I have to worry about employment and will take one that she recomends). The non-coding part seemed like it might be harder than it had to be and through it all I did not find one terrorist. I was stucken by the looping structure in combination with the simple program example...

getchar; This gets a charecter from the keyboard

We ignore the rest of the simple commands in the example but mention the loops

for
while
do while (or do)

That is all I hear in the apartment is comments about why don't you getchar (o.k. why don't you get a car) and once in awhile I will hear stuff about doing something. If you want the contents excuted at least once then you do a do or do while statement. I was thinking about flat tire effect but realy there are simularities in different c type languages. c, java, cdl you can getchar but you can also ride the bus and watch the driver do the visual checking :)

I had to talk to someone named D. Doggett from Texas Workforce Commision yesterday. Wait till befour the election deny me my bennifits and assign the hearing on election day tuesday. I was expecting harrasment last night but didn't get it until this night (tuesday). Strange interviewing style you go entirely by memory with questions asked to fast to adequete. I am sure he slipped something by after I thought about it. He sounds like he is out of x-files and one of the things I noticed when I called is that the first time there was nothing and the second time someone picked up the phone but it did not ring either time. What you would normaly think is am I realy talking to them or is the phone hacked or whatever..

sources, graphiti.. kinky freedman election signs

We will see if the dea auctions off the kinky freedman signs on ebay to see who buys them.... Threat or Source... Or nothing hard to tell sometimes.. I am looking at the graphiti and some stuff on the internet.... mora with variations... death in spanish.. gcc from monster.com (In corpus christi) out of houston see last post and then that sep graphiti one letter off from scp. gcc being the c compiler that is free scp is the educational software that is free from manpower (If you are signed up through them).. You get a certificate of completion or some such. I am not sure that it gives me or you alot of credibity but I can tell you that the software has a target in it. I am not sure who the source is the vandelises everything and would like to mention it is pythonic if you use jython with java for your certificate.. (Like they will ask questions about jython). Java is free from sun and the other programming language they teach is cobal.. I think you can get a free compiler but it is mainly a curiosty for most people... A couple of more graphiti things that may or may not be about the base... Thought I saw something about security threat and the other one was hr. with usa with it.. Some areas of town give me alot of graphiti that I wouldn't have a clue on...

gcc

http://www.gct.com/gcc/general/
This is a real company?? Or isit a free c compiler... Up where borland is a company that sells a compiler (I have at least three on my system) named aftera free c compiler is trying to sell travel. I didn't see anytravel to india though.. That wouldbe the ultimate in bad marketing.They call that free trade in the software buisnessSo the boston guy would say he doesn't like freetrade exc exc exc.. Then you get a free transitpass to do the public transpertation in huston including light rail most likely ..I think that includes rail..

It does remind me it would be stupid for me to not try to get certified for the software I am already using. I need to talk to someone about that tommorow. I started playing around with java today (again I did breifly look at borland jbuilder). It is not clear to me where I would get java beans and where I would place them If I found them.. Sun goes under all the java documentation dissapears.. well not all of it and someone paid for an alternative version for java but there is some risk. Turns out they charge $2500 for java certification (at least to be certified through sun). My java is to up to date for the classes.. That was strange...

kinky friedman lack of policy anouncement

I just hear one thing about legalising mary jane... Where is the energy policy???? I don't hear one realy from anyone other than some lesser house people that get interviewed.. I have about 100 meg downloaded of what is what I will hopefully need to have the entire java thing on my machine.. I have a couple of java to python and python to java things.. Looking at blue I am convinced that it doesn't have to much that is that helpfull.. Global variables may be something that is worth looking at. I don't think there is anything bad that happens if you include variables you don't need but if you don't include variables then it is big trouble. You do get four csd files.. maybe that is worth including in the package in a modified format..


Hopefully I can start my refresher on c pretty soon.. (as soon as I have everything downloaded). With my choice of 4 c compiler envirements on my machine.. two of them are variants of gcc or whatever is public domain.. I don't see many code converters. I do see c to java and python to c. Another reason to write code that is as simple to look at as possible.. I will start looking at blue to see if it is worth using a wrapper for. Depends on how steve coded and documented it. If it is easy to use without blue yes indeed I'll wrap it although I have already written alot of routines that are simular..
