1) it does when i scroll down in it :)
2) mine is sometimes :) depending on what I'm using.
3) You'd hope,- if not it's time to fire someone
4) Unless you're using >4 dimensional arrays.  ;)
8) Well, eventually that's what it compiles to.
9) I rarely use a mouse when coding, but that's just me.
10) No, to write cross platform you actually have to fork out the effort to use cross platform libraries instead of sticking to what 'everyone else' does.

Best Text Editor / Re: Vim: important usage tips
« Last post by Gothi[c] on December 06, 2006, 05:55 AM »
I'm also an intensive vim user, though I haven't spend too much time looking for tweaks. My vimrc is extremely basic, line numbering, syntax highlighting, 2 spaces instead of a tab, no line wrapping, etc,...


So, here's mine:

[Select]
syntax on
set wildmode=list:longest,full
set showmode
set showcmd
set shortmess+=r
set mouse=a
set nowrap
set shiftwidth=2
set tabstop=2
set expandtab
set autoindent
set number
set title
set ttyfast
set shiftround
filetype on
set ignorecase
set smartcase
set incsearch
set gdefault

« Last post by Gothi[c] on November 28, 2006, 09:04 PM »
App, you should try some stuff of my list ;) minus the blackmetal stuff.
If you're drawn to classical guitar, violin and fluite music try these:

- Arcana ( http://www.erebusodora.net/arcana/ ) (VERY slow music)
- Ataraxia ( http://www.ataraxia.net/ ) ( they use classical guitar allot, though the vocals may be a bit weird to some that aren't used to strange non-mainstream music ;) )
- Excalibur soundtrack ( this has some excellent flute/classical guitar stuff in it)
- Loituma ( finnish folk stuff )
- Zbigniew Preisner ( this guy makes very mystical classicalish music, wrote several movie soundtracks too)

Awesome. :)
Bakefile is really nice, it lets you make one project file that can be exported to automake, visual c++, borland and many other formats, great for cross platform projects :)

18 months to come up with a sound I would replace the first day of running it.

Microsoft is planning not to allow people to change the startup sound.

General Software Discussion / Re: Best free firewall for Windows?
« Last post by Gothi[c] on November 07, 2006, 12:50 AM »
Well, sygate was indeed the best firewall i ever used for windows. RIP. I'd recommend anyone to try and find a copy of it. ZA, while it works for many people, is a bit too bloated, and I can't stand the newbieware approach of it :P sygate was VERY lightweight, and it worked great. But something tells me the responses there didn't cover all the firewalls out there. There may be one or two or three or more firewalls out there that aren't as popular as the before mentioned but still good.

General Software Discussion / Re: SCRIBUS - Open Source Desktop Publishing
« Last post by Gothi[c] on November 07, 2006, 12:18 AM »
ah nevermind, the eps format isn't readable enough to parse through. I guess i'm sticking to LaTeX.

<edit>
It seems that the svg format, which is XML and convertable to PDF is allot more parse-able for procedural generation, and inkscape seems to output the svg format in a readable way, maybe
i'll try that route :) that way i can still have wysiwyg reports and procedural generation in perl  :eusa_dance:

General Software Discussion / Re: SCRIBUS - Open Source Desktop Publishing
« Last post by Gothi[c] on November 07, 2006, 12:01 AM »
I just build the latest CVS version of scribus on ubuntu. Looks damn nice, but there's some issues with the table functionality. A table is really a grouped/bordered set of text frames, as a result of this, it is possible to resize a cell over another cell, and thus messing everything up, sometimes unrecoverable, so you have to redo your entire table (no undo). Quite annoying. But I guess they'll solve this later. Here's a screenshot of the cvs version:

scribus.png

I'm going to use it to make report templates. I can export from scribus to .eps format, and use eps2pdf to procedurally generate PDF files from my perl CGI script. I was using LaTeX before for this, but having a wysiwyg tool is just allot easyer than having to write up all the latex source from scratch, especially if your report has to look a certain way. (LaTeX is very handy for writing papers and stuff without having to worry about formatting though.)

Tested it on ubuntu with an ATI x550 card, runs fine, but very buggy.
Like f0dder said, graphics are nice, but I experience some strange artifacts here and there.
And the game totally locked up the computer needing a hard reboot when i exited it.
It may be my 3d card drivers.... but the game itself ran very smooth, seems to need  a little more work tho.
