Pete's QBASIC Site

I don't like Ubuntu much myself. I use KNOPPIX for my Live-CD (DVD) needs and Slackware as my main system.

I'm not sure if TI-BASIC questions are allowed on the forum, but here it goes. I recently made a program to generate random numbers that would never repeat. Here is the dreadfully slow (not mine) version. Notes: > specifies a STORE function, not GREATER THAN <> specifies the TI-BASIC Is Not Equal To...

...and a Desktop Environment . PDE! hehehe...[/url] That PDE... maybe you can make some drawing of what you would like... maybe we can work sumfin out... I might make a GUI sooner that I've said... e-mail me... I was saying that if I was a better programmer, I would make a desktop environment. But,...

Listen to your elders! I haven't programmed for 2 weeks. Last few weeks of school. I felt I needed to buckle down, so I got myself a girl... I didn't need the stress. But, I am starting to feel that itch to get on and program. But I don't need the stress right now...

Listen to Lurah and Seb!

most programs don't run under Linux. mmm...you mean windows programs wont run? I mean after 6 months in linux only havent got any problems to find suitable program for my use. I mean big commercial software. For instance, if I want to play The Sims or World of Warcraft, I would have to use Windows....

About the only downfall I can find to Linux is the fact that most programs don't run under Linux. WINE is still unstable software and, therefore, does not run every Windows program as flawlessly as possible. However, WINE does do a pretty good job though

Great issue! Only the best comes out of the oven when Pete's cooking!

BTW Does anyone know where can I contact matthew? I want to speak personally to him about his hosting... thing...

Just so everyone knows...
A. I feel really bad for starting this...
B. I didn't revive it.

He's been doing that for quite a while... (maybe 2 or more months)
But, thanks! I like it too!

I don't program viruses for a living... But if I did, I'd remotely get on your computer and do it for you.

Who would have guessed that I was half Irish? Not me...

If you are using WIN XP, don't use the IDE. Problem solved.

ummmm... anyways, those ideas sound great but my current method doesn't seem to work so well... I open the dir.tem file and read the strings out. I think there might be a better way, though. it's pretty slow and it can be unreliable. is there a better way to read directory info into qBasic? check o...

Feel free to add to this list. A free open-sourced FileSystem which would be easily accessed in any Operating System. NTFS is too closed off, EXT2 is losing it's usefulness to journaling filesystems, like EXT3. Many others are supported, but not as much. So far I only find FAT32 to be easily accesse...

Well, I was just curious... For a small look at some different browsers other than the big 6 (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Mozilla, Netscape, and Safari), check out this handy page: http://browsers.evolt.org/ - it's a little outdated though, but it has older versions of Mosiac, the browser Mic...

MOST KEYBOARDS HAVE THEM ON THE LEFT SIDE, ABOUT 4 KEYS DOWN FROM THE TOP. I HOPE THAT HELPS WITH YOUR QUESTION.


btw... that would be amazing (probably not possible) if OpenOffice.org was ported to QB. Just imagine...

Well, 'The longest journey begins with a single step.'. I say, Do it! Who cares if FB is better? QB is classic. It's just like throwing away perfectly good Final Fantasy games just because they're outdated. QB and FF are classic. Don't take them away! (getting off subject.) Anyway, I would just like...

What I wanna know is...

What is the best text-PDS library?

Create a function that can encrypt/decrypt files quick and archiving! Put fast archiving in and I will use it in NOGOSH as long as it's PDS friendly

Since QB News has been disabled, the same news has been up on the main page for months now. Is anything planned to change? ex. Reenable QB News on much more strict terms or removal from the home page?
