console and text based software in mass use is not common and does not require a style guide per say; it requires more of development guidelines and standards (ie use tabs instead of spaces). Don't confuse a style guide with development guidelines. One is for graphic interfaces and the other is for coding standards (including CLI).
Personally, I'd like pictures, film footage, skin samples and hair cuttings of Steves deviations. But thts just me. I'm build am army of clones to enter into the Chair throwing event in the 2020 summer Olympics in Iowa.
Macintosh develop site has several well put together style guides for software development that you should look at. Check out the Apple Human Interface Guidelines. Apple may not be your cup of tea but they always have good ideas and have a well put together interface and this will DEFINITELY give you a good idea where and how to start.
Heh... install was company policy regardless of protests. Afterward they realized their mistake and have vowed not to use Vista at ALL on any systems; and everyone learned a valuable lesson
I've been using Vista since it came out and have helped to install it on several machines in our office. I can honestly say now that all of those machines I have had to reinstall XP on and with good reason; hardware incompatibilities, software incompatibilities, slowdowns, crashes, freezeups.
I love the new Vistas look and feel but unfortunately it just doesn't perform the way it was promised and they did rush it to market. I think that any company that rusahes a product to market and the consumer ends up paying for it, should be punished for such negligence. If this were a car manufacturer or a drug manufacturer, you would see the same thing. So why should Microsoft be any different?
oh no... spelling correction? You obviously are new to the net if you missed the reference there fanboi. Got that shows what a noob you are. Gonna correct me on spelling of noob too?
No what is pretty obvious is that you don't know dick about computers and don't have the ability to keep XP running.
The 6 month uptime on my LAMP web serve that gets 1 million hits a month bets you're talking through you're ass and are just another MS fanboi waiting for his system to reboot. 10 more minutes to go.
no what is unbelievable is that the average uptime of a windows box is 11days And yet for some reason you have been running yours on pure magic for years? Doesn't matter what hardware you have if the OS is still buggy. You can say what you want but its pretty obvious you are full of it
Actually, you don't see XP uptake going anywhere. It's MAC sales that are going through the roof. And if you haven't seen a crash in years, you should try turning it on every once in awhile.
If the work is so important and you really mean it, then open source it. Put it under the GPL and not a 'shared source' license. This promise to sue means nothing. The shared source means less. Promises get broken and shared source means you own my changes and improvements turning me into a free employee rather than those changes being able to be used by the community at large and even by you, the company and product developers to improve your product.
Microsoft is only going halfway when previously they have shown they are willing to do anything they have to do to crush and destroy the open source community. It's like offering to shake our hand over an open pit of alligators rather than just jumping across to say hello.
Attention Mr humor impaired. That was a joke. Next time I'll wrap it in tags so you know when to laugh. Unless you are an ASXual in which case you wont find that very funny.
Exactly. They put in bridges for other languages and pulled it for Java which was the most popular development language for MAC aside from Objective C. It wasn't because of lack of interest; open office was in the process of doing a full conversion using that bridge when it was pulled.
Would you prefer us to start recruiting our American rocket scientists from China and India in another 5 years? Without focus on a better education system, the United states will continue to fall behind. 5 years is a small cost to pay for catching us back up and getting the next generation competitive in the global market.
nope. Another java tinkerer on the mac platform. Just was enjoying playing with Cocoa and was begining to start developing in Cocoa in java right when the new OS came out. But that sort of killed it all. Can't say I'm too pleased but can't say I'm too surprised either; they were getting alot of people developing apps in java and Apple just DOESN'T WANT THAT. They want everyone to do it in Objective C or nothing. Honestly, I dont get the big deal but whatever.
Actually I have played with Xcode and Eclipse both and enjoy both. In some places I wish that eclipse was a bit more like Xcode and Xcode was a bit more like Eclipse. Still because of it's flexibility and number of plugins, I use Eclipse on a regular basis.
Also since Apple in it's infinite 'wisdumb(tm)' choice to kill the java bridge for Cocoa, I have no need to even attempt to use Xcode anymore *shrug*. Oh well.

Yeah well you obviously were confused... noob.

If you have XP installed and it stays on 24/7 and you 'haven't had a crash in years' then you make a very unconvincing liar.
Actually, you don't see XP uptake going anywhere. It's MAC sales that are going through the roof. And if you haven't seen a crash in years, you should try turning it on every once in awhile.
You are absolutely correct. Only XP can compete with VISTA on a level of customer dissatisfaction that OSX and Linux could never hope to accomplish.

apparently from your uptight tone, you have yet to take my advice or vote republican
Did I win?
No my brain just isn't preoccupied with buttsex. I'm heterosexual. Sorry. Also not interested.
Attention Mr humor impaired. That was a joke. Next time I'll wrap it in tags so you know when to laugh. Unless you are an ASXual in which case you wont find that very funny.
Well that would mean that people who use the ASX format are all ASX-uals.
Ah... good point but harsh. Not really that distant but definitely after the C's
