Re: A Debian/Ubuntu PureBasic installer

I completely agree with LaurieT. It seems mad to me that even having all the dependencies installed and confirming the checker script most of the example source code fails to even compile (well... that's once you get the compiler actually loading) - and I'm running on a bog-standard Ubuntu 9.04 ...

Re: A Debian/Ubuntu PureBasic installer

Just curious, but how many people would prefer to have a package installer for PureBasic?

This would then eliminate all the documents and videos on how to install all the dependancies into a double click.

I've been experimenting with creating a package for ubuntu and then asked Freak about it ...

Re: A Debian/Ubuntu PureBasic installer

Kepu,

Thanks a lot for your work and contrib!!!

However on my installation of Jaunty, your snippet failed with su complaining about the -c switch and apostrophes not helping either.

I changed it to

sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomeprintui2.2-dev libxine ...

Echo Compiler Warnings to Console

Hi all,

I've done a few searches, so far nothing, so it's Stupid Question Time (but I'll bet it's there somewhere)

What I want to do is echo compiler warnings to the console.

I've been playing with KingLestat's excellent code from

Or buy a K8055 - USB Experiment Interface Board Kit ?

You have analog and digital inputs and outputs, an easy API interface, very low cost and plenty of scope for experimental development. Having spoken to the guys at Velleman in the past I'm sure they'll even manufacture you a board to specific ...

@Rescator: Sounds like exactly the same installation as my own *was*, and yes other than the Password-Pain( tm ) it was OK but I was forever running into Permissions problems and niggles - When I've got my head down I don't want a simple file copy to turn into a Permissions nightmare breaking my ...

Yeah...

It seems to me more to be a Vista "issue" (M$ don't have bugs ;) ) than a PB issue.

I was just wondering if any other Vista people had noticed it or if it was just me! ;)

Vista: Admin vs Limited... AutoComplete

Hi guys...

OK, here's the situation: After a lot of playing about on Vista Home (urgh) I've installed PB 4.30 in a subdirectory of the Public folder because of Permissions problems because I run as a Limited user (gotta love UAC and Vista "security" *pukes*).

I've installed as Limited and Admin in ...
