Hi,
building websites can be tough, especially when there are CMS and Email-Forms on the page, because due to last minute changes in the sites, Emails can be lost and there might be malfunctions in the CMS, which of course only surface a week later, when the client actually starts to use the Site.
And no sweet […]

Hi,
when having a complex FLTK based GUI, that is based on Tiles, for example an adjustable workspace, as the Open Movie Editor has, it can be convenient to store and restore the workspace appearence.
The following code-snippet does that. You only need to give it your main window and a Fl_Preferences instance, and it will save […]
Appearently, I am not the only one:
Linus says:
No, the problem I’ve seen in gcc
is that _some_ of the developers seem to be total d*ckheads when it comes
to “language definition”, and seem to think that it’s more important to
read the language spec like a lawyer than it is to solve actual user
problems.
So, if you compile without “-std=c99″, then I get this warning:
warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘lrint’
And if I enable that switch, M_PI is suddenly undefined.
‘M_PI’ undeclared
Can anybody explain me how I am expected to write software without rounding and PI?
And no, I can’t be bothered to define PI in all my sourcefiles myself!
Cheers

Project VGA, a project which aims to develop a Low Budget, Open Source, VGA Compatible video card.
I wonder whether it would be possible to use this hardware to create a FPGA based compositing engine for image scaling and alpha blending, and then meddle some modlines and use something like in this VGA to SCART Converter […]
Starting new Projects, renaming Projects, copying Projects, switching between Projects in the Open Movie Editor has always been a question that I liked to spend time on. I am not quite happy with the current solution implemented, so I am exploring different approaches. I could do what everyone else is doing, but I am not […]

And this is how it should look like:
And I am not […]
Hi,
I do have a specific Problem with the Open Movie Editor on Ubuntu Feisty. The Video Frames are badly distorted when they are smaller then 1024 pixels in width. I am quite confident that this is a bug in the glTexSubImage2D of Mesa on this Version of Ubuntu, beause on Dapper it works quite well. […]
Hi,
One very essential rule in software development in my opinion is “Respect User Data”, which means essentially that a program should not put data that belongs to the user at risk unnecessarily. Actually unless it is physically absolutely impossible to keep the data it should be kept.
Unfortunatly not every software developer follows that rule. I […]
