• Salutations! I'm searching an old BASIC programmer

    Hi All!

    I'm searching a BASIC programmer which name was greek.
    I can't remind, around two decades ago.
    I think he program a library with menus, et cetera for
    Power Basic v.3.2 or v.32 called like nuts & bolts.
    I was a beta tester of that library. I coldn't find a
    serious error. Is he alive?

    Second question is where are the archives of all kind
    of basic dialects and free source code of that time ago
    called ABC... ALL BASIC CODE... ??? He and I (modestly)
    contribute to that.

    Thanks in advance, best,


    J.L.M.

    I'm not sure but this might be the library you are looking
    for. Start here...

    https://www.pbhq.com/search/

    Click on "PowerBASIC Filebase" then "PB/DOS:Tools & Toolkits".
    Take a look at N-B-V206.ZIP, Nutz /n Boltz for PowerBASIC.
    Also, look at MNUSYS23.ZIP, Menusys for PowerBASIC 3.0.
    In addition there is a lot of other good stuff there.

    Second question is where are the archives of all kind
    of basic dialects and free source code of that time ago
    called ABC... ALL BASIC CODE... ??? He and I (modestly)

    A lot of source code of all kinds are here...

    Thanks in advance, best,

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I'm a very nostalgic type of person.
    THIS HAS SENTIMENTAL VALUE AND NOT PROFESSIONAL VALUE...
    MORE VALUE...

    Post data: Currently I like a lot, simple Perl scripts...

    You are very welcome. I too can get nostalgic at times.
    I still have a DOS box with WFW3.11, VB3, PowerBASIC and
    MASM5 that I fire up now and then. Lots of fun.

    Post data: Currently I like a lot, simple Perl scripts...

    I tried Perl for a short time for a project I was working
    on but decided on Python. I seemed that more sample code
    was available for the things I was wanting to do. Plus
    there is a newsgroup where some experienced programmers
    hang out. I did a Python version of Marek's Linfo script
    that was written in Bash. I think you were around back
    when he was active on the Ubuntu and Mint groups.

    Perl 5, like Python, are very *POWERFUL* but

    EDITOR AGNOSTIC!!!

    Example what Perl do:


    while (<>){

    @words_or_numbers = split /\s+/;

    }

    print @words_or_numbers;

    exit 1;

    Best regards.

    Hi there, again!!!

    porgrammersheaven.com seems literally what it is, like

    the rossettacode web page to "aficionados" like me.

    Simply I have the problem to log in.

    Should I pay something or write something to access?

    Thanks in advance, cheers,

    I don't think you have to register to download but you do to
    be able to post code, programs or make comments. All they
    want is a valid email address and you create a user name
    and password. They don't ask for any personal information.
    I use my junk Yahoo address.

    Thank you once again Wildman,
    I simply don't see in the page the option to register my data.
    I have to see with more detail.
    Maybe the problem is that I'm from another country.
    Maybe it is in the option FORGOT???
    I have to check better. You never know when it can be useful in
    practice to use another person code.

    Cheers!

    There is a problem with the website. When I go there using
    Firefox, I get a small box in the upper right corner that
    has a button that says "Register". When I click it, it
    says page not found. I will try to find a contact email
    and let them know.
