  • Seed7 version 2023-04-22 released on GitHub and SF
    1 project | /r/ProgrammingLanguages | 26 Apr 2023
    No. You can see at GitHub that I update Seed7 quite often. Approximately once a month I do a release and this release is announced at r/seed7 and here.
  • Question about installation
    1 project | /r/seed7 | 25 Apr 2023
    The packages are not updated so often. So you are more up-to-date with the releases (or even more up-to-date by pulling from GitHub).
  • Exercism related questions
    1 project | /r/seed7 | 2 Apr 2023
    I committed a corresponding change to GitHub (Support syntax statements without $ (dollar)).
  • Seed7 version 2023-03-05 released on GitHub and SF
    1 project | /r/seed7 | 5 Mar 2023
    This release is available at GitHub and SF. There is also a Seed7 installer for windows, which downloads the newest version from SF. The Seed7 Homepage stays at its usual place. There is also a mirror of the Seed7 Homepage which uses HTTPS.
  • Have you heard about the Seed7 programming language?
    3 projects | /r/pascal | 23 Feb 2023
    Yes, I am regularly working on improvements for Seed7. The changes are checked in at GitHub (see here for the list of commits) and once a month I do a release which is announced at r/seed7.
  • Core-js maintainer complains open source is broken
    3 projects | /r/programming | 15 Feb 2023
    It all depends on the circumstances behind. In the beginning the core-js maintainer had no family and now he has. When I released Seed7 I already had a family. It was clear that my job had to support my family and my hobby (GitHub link).
  • Seed7 version 2022-06-26 released on GitHub and SF
    1 project | /r/seed7 | 26 Jun 2022
    Syntax highlighting for the Nano editor has been added. Many thanks to Duke Normandin for creating seed7.nanorc.

    I don't know for sure, but could it be this?

  • How to choose a front end / control kit pairing for multi cabinet?
    1 project | /r/cade | 1 Apr 2023
    The kit has been fun. My daughter loved helping me wire it up to a dummy box, and we decided its worth moving forward with a desktop cabinet build. I don't have a raspberry pi and can't find one, so we're using a 2012 mac mini. OpenEmu has been fun, but I'd like to be able to control the whole UI with the joystick, so we looked at EmulationStation-DE (retropie for desktop as its been explained to me). The control kit worked with OpenEmu but not EmulationStation, and the folks over in that sub said its not supported by SDL https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL
  • Do i have enpugh knowledge to learn new libraries?
    2 projects | /r/cpp_questions | 8 Sep 2022
    There is also SDL, which is a bit of a behemoth library, but gives you a lot of firepower if you want to get down to the nuts and bolts of building something from scratch with media. It provides a framework for working with graphics, sound, input hardware, etc., and is cross-platform. I haven't personally used SDL but it's a pretty well-utilized library. It's written in C so the same caveats apply as before, but works just fine with C++.
  • Fixing Stutters in Papers Please on Linux

    This has already been fixed in the latest SDL version, but it's likely that the game comes bundled with it's own version.
  • I'm giving out microgrants to open source projects for the third year in a row! Brag about your projects here so I can see them, big or small!
    103 projects | /r/programming | 28 Dec 2021
    I got tired of writing C# bindings code by hand to interop with native C/C++ libraries, so I automated the process. Example for SDL: https://github.com/bottlenoselabs/SDL-cs. The repository is automated daily using Dependabot to run C2CS, generate the P/Invoke code, and push a Git commit with the code automatically when there is a change to https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL.
  • Updated MacOS documentation

    The source code for it can be found at https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL , this may be helpful if your looking for an example of how a 'platform layer' like this it can be implemented.
