Come on, when someone asks for tips for programming under linux, don't give "solutions" as using another system...

as soon as i figure out what this says ill know how to properly reply...

GuillameH: i have some little points that need clearing
1. how do i load the syntax highlighting file? do i need to move it into one of kates folders or what? how do i do it?
2. with the shell script how do i need to structure everything? put bincalc, tpasm, my source, etc in the same folder? (thats what im assuming)
3. can titranz get rom images? otherwise id need to use tilp or just wine the flash debugger which doesnt need one
4. can i run calccapture under wine along with the flash debugger and will it recognize that the flash debugger is running?

1. Put it in the /usr/share/apps/katepart/syntax directory.
2. For this very specific script, yes.
3. I don't think so, I can't remember.. Also, titranz only works for TI-83(+).
4. No idea.

im reviving this thread again with some more questions

I just (2 days ago) loaded my Mac with Linux (thank you Yellow Dog ^_^ (except its based off red hat which :'-(. Any other distros with ppc versions?)) and now I have two more questions for my z80 dev environment.

1. Is there a sprite maker program like cgs?
2. What do I use/how do I take screenshots?

I'm fairly certain Gentoo has a ppc branch.

Ubuntu Linux also has a ppc version. This distro is really easy to install and use, and has debian's package system too :)

To answer your questions :

1. You can run Calcgs with WINE.
2. For the latest screenshots I've made, I used TilEm in window mode and used KDE's keyboard shortcut to take a snapshot of a window...

I just wonder if Ill be able to upgrade the 5.04-preview version or even the 4.10 version to the 5 release version.

EDIT: I just looked at their docs and you CAN up from the Warty release to the Hoary one and then to future releases so on and so on.

Maybe Ill try Debian. I hope the install isnt as hard as the one for Gentoo :-/.

Id like to get into Gentoo but I always seem to mess up the install somwhere.

Ubuntu forces GNOME on you but I prefer KDE. (and makes you use sudo! no "su -" at all!!!)

If you prefer KDE, you can install Ubuntu and then do an "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and voila, you have the latest KDE (3.4) installed :)

Yea I was looking around on the web later and I found out about Kubuntu. Ill give it a try.

3.4 is in Hoary. 3.2 is in Warty.

No su? Easy.

Code: Select all

sudo /bin/bash -l
Gentoo's install really isn't all that hard. I've done it several times by now, I can almost do it from memory.

Yea I can do the install. Doing it without messing something up is a different story :) .

The part I mess up on is the kernel compilation because I dont really kno what I need (aside from somethings).
