I use QVT/Term, have since the 90s. It's more compatible with OpenVMS. If I recall correctly, very few terminus emulation systems emulate the "GOLD" key effectively; QVT/Term does (possibly Reflection does too).

Awesome project! I love embedded and electronics, have always been interested although still consider myself a hack! I just finished a lightbox using IR LEDs and ATMega328P so I can start making my own PCBs. Now just waiting for transparencies to get here so I can start testing. (I need to test lightbox to determine how long I need to set timer for developing light sensitive boards) New version: WinHeist Version 2.2.2 Beta I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!

I've been watching OS.js - JavaScript Cloud/Web Desktop Platform[^] -- pretty active development, and quite impressive.

FP does a horrible job selling itself because: 1. The world is not immutable 2. Tail recursion is a thing only necessary when coerced into an immutable world, and can get really complicated really fast 3. Continuations and continuation passing style are hardly ever necessary (and easily implemented in non-FP languages) 4. Pattern matching is just a glorified switch statement 5. Type inference sorta sucks, especially when only the first field of a type is used to infer the type (that one bit me numerous times.)

Restated another way, the question is how to update an existing item in a collection using LINQ: List toys = new List(); toys.Add( new Toy() { Id = 1, Color = "Red", Price = 1.20M } ); toys.Add( new Toy() { Id = 2, Color = "Red", Price = 1.20M } ); toys.Add( new Toy() { Id = 3, Color = "Red", Price = 1.20M } ); toys.Single( o => o.Id == 2 ).Color = "Blue"; toys.Single( o => o.Id == 2 ).Price = 3.99M; toys.ForEach( o => Console.WriteLine( $"{o.Id} {o.Color} {o.Price}" ) );

It beats all hell out of the 8-bit, four bar 90's video game theme on some PBX's. Software Zen: delete this;

The flaw in this is that b and c are both calculated as integer values (at compile time) then converted to double. Integer doesn't have a negative zero.

excellent, cheers Marc (posted a comment already on the article)

Might be localization settings, but the google doodle I have is related to earth day. That is, I guess, today.
