when becoming a cross-platform novice, there was one thing that really disturbed me about linux that was so much better on windows: the standard commandline editor(s) for editing text files. if you are using gnome or KDE, the standard editors under linux (gedit/kedit) are better that the normal notepad under windows. but when it comes to commandline, the common windows-user is lost. if you are a non-hardcore linux user you know what i mean: vi(m) and emacs need to be LEARNED before they can be used. what a normal windows to linux switcher wants is an editor like the good old MS-DOS Editor "edit". what i want is an editor that i can simply USE without needing to learn it. there are thousands of different flavors of software out there for linux so i thought it shouldnt be difficult to find an editor that is as intuitie as MS edit. well, it was. but finally after about two hours i found one thats quite comfortable that satisdfies my needs. with you might feel at home with it to...

nothing much to report. i am a bit exhausted and sick after going out on sunday, then working on monday and going to the EM match in the main fanzone of vienna.  i wondered very much what happened to me in the last 2 years when i even put on some paint onto my face like those freaky soccer watchers do. it did not help anyway.  in work there were some things happening, plus i am fighting with synergy desktop sharing software with my newly updated hardy heron ubuntu edition in the company. some characters are not transported to the other pc, hell knows why. with gutsy everything worked. so everything i could talk about now would be too much to... write  :) so i ll just leave it for now

This blog entry might get you up and running with Eclipse if you come from Visual Studio without you having the need to immediately look at how to create makefiles or how the eclipse workspace philosophy works. I expect that you are somewhat familiar with Visual C++ though. I like Eclipse. Well.... no, i don't. I like Visual Studio especially for C#, but Visual C++ has some drawbacks, especially when used to code cross platform non-.NET and without precompiled headers. Still I don't know why so many people find Eclipse so great, but granted, it has a very decent code completion, nice automake and a very good syntax highlighting. I use it too. Its the next best thing ive tried so far to VS. What I hate about it are the project- and workspace philosophies of Eclipse and that the program is somewhat slow. Visual Studio projects/solutions are much easier to use and you grasp its concepts quicker and, most importantly, you are free to include any file you want into your project ind...

Finally i found a nice tool to search for files under linux! under windows i am using Agent Ransack , a very comfy and efficient tool for that purpose. I dont want to use grep under linux for my searches then i always would have to concentrate on the syntax, so i was looking for a nice tool that is a sort of to Agent Ransack under Linux, so i'll have a tool that does the job similar to my favorite search tool. ( i also dont want any desktop search app with all the overhead they seem bring) the next best thing i found was regexxer that can be installed by "sudo apt-get install regexxer". unfortunately you will not be able to use wildcards with regexxer but use regular expressions, which are a bit... more complex. but still it is the best alternative i found and, compared to some other linux apps, quite self explanatory. bytes

When beginning to think how some packing alorhytms for the project i am currently doing in my company, i decided to go with streams as the contained for the packed data. why? first, i knew some stream working from C#, second, i knew the packed data would be then sent over the network. in C# you can then quite easily convert your stream to a network stream and just send THAT over the network. out of some reason i thought that there surely also is some network stream class in c++. third, back when i learned programming in colleg we were doing streams and they told us we should use them. if i think about it now i think our professor had a certain crush on streams. fourth, i needed something abstract, where i just could put more and more data into easily and in the end, get everything out again. streams seem to be made for that right? ok, now let me tell you: if i could choose again, i would avoid them like a christian avoids hell. why? not only me but also my colleages find streams-progra...
