PowerBasic, like Xojo, have been around forever and are still popularly in use today. This means you can just continue it in PowerBasic or port if to a similar Basic alternative (I personally use Xojo, but that's a preference).
I had never heard of ZenCBR and I'm missing in what way it's useful (I am very obsessive about organizing my comics, so that may be why I don't see much point in it) but just from looking at the source code I can see it's done in PowerBasic. (is this a waste of time, is there another program that does what ZenCBR does ?) SIZE - KEEP IT SMALL (both code and memory footprint) SPEED - make each function go as fast as possible. (each menu option can be simply "dropped" in or "pulled" out w/out major headaches)Īvoid GUI, keep it text - (simpler, potentially faster), At this point maybe as a set of Bash scripts, or Java like Ubooquity, my son suggested Go, or python- (which would run on more than Linux boxen).įor those who have used it, what features/functions should it have? So, I am thinking about rewriting the app. (who knows how long it will remain online.) (if you don't have a copy, you may want to get one soon if you are interested.) Unfortunately, the author, Shannon Larrat, passed away 16 March 2013. The author has posted the Source, and declared it FOSS! (this is a good thing) Workstations in the house are all Macs, Android phones/tablets, iPhones/iPad, ChromeOS, and whatever my son is running on "his" beastie this week. Pogo Plugs,Seagate GoFlex, Raspberry Pis, and so on.I think there is one intel box w/ Ubuntu - everyone else is Debian Jessie, or Embedded Linux (MontaVista?) (my server farm or weed patch - is all itty bitty ARM boxen. My only problem with that is that it is a "windows" only app. I was googling/searching/hunt'n'pecking a way to "clean up" my comics files, and almost universally "ZenCBR" is mentioned. Not sure if this is inline w/ the purpose/direction of this forum, and if Admin/Sysop yanks it - NP.
