This is a RECOMMENDING of a IDE if someone want.
|
|
|
|
|
A couple of points. If you are recommending something, it's customary to put a link in. Also, a programming language is not an IDE. I can't see anywhere in your post that refers to an IDE.

One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

I debated whether this should be posted here, or as a "Tip/Trick:" but since this is not my own work, and does constitute a "free solution" ... for those who are bothered by the vast megabytes of non-Roman fonts installed by Windows and Adobe Apps which are not possible to delete by normal methods ... Here it be:
This is an article titled: "How to remove Windows 7 non-latin fonts"[^], on a blog by Martin Ihde, named "Support-Ing.net"
He has downloadable .bat files ... one for English Win 7, one for German Win 7 ... which, if you carefully follow his instructions, will remove non-Latin fonts, from the typical C:/Windows/Fonts folder where they are stored,(and are not deletable, or movable, even when you are running as admin), and re-locate them to a new directory you create. Once moved: you can delete these fonts, if you wish.
Warning: if you are using non-Latin fonts, that are not covered by the list of fonts in the author's .bat files: you are, obviously, going to have to parse his .bat files, and add their names to remove them. The fonts removed are backed-up into a folder in his method, so you do have the opportunity to restore this.
And, please be sure you carefully consider the author's warnings in the article !
Also note that these instructions are written for a user of Win7 who knows how to open and use the Cmd.exe window with Admin privileges: if that sounds "alien" to you, I suggest you not mess around with this solution.
I just deleted 100 megabytes worth of Fonts I will never use: suddenly I feel light-headed

I've only been playing with it for a day or so, but thus far, I am very impressed.
vsspeedster link
I've watched Visual Studio when compiling - Windows 7 64 Bit ICore3 Dual Core, so Windows gives me four cores, per se. Two of them are mostly idle with this parallel build turned off, even though VS is set to use all 4 via Tools/Options. Build via this new menu button, and all four cpus average 80-90% usage while compiling. The result?
I have a solution with 187 projects that I compile regularly (I know, I know) but it took the compilation time from around four minutes down to approximately 22 seconds!
Plan to download the source and rebuild, and use your own compiled assemblies. People bitched it didn't work, but compiling the source (freely available, so I could change verbosity, etc.) is easy to do - all required files are included in the zip of source.
I do not recommend toggling it on/off without first restarting your Visual Studio session.
As long as you reboot when toggling, it seems quite stable.
I'm impressed so far and no hangs ups if no toggling.
If you think VS2010 compiles too slow, give it a whirl. Post your results - it's saving me minutes per compile!
(and no, I am not affiliated with the project linked above)

If you are new to the subject - go for NSIS: http://nsis.sourceforge.net[^]
or, even better - Unicode version of NSIS: http://www.scratchpaper.com/[^]
I have been using NSIS for over 5 years, deploying both 32-bit and 64-bit software, and never looked back to such bad, uber-expensive alternatives as InstallShield.
NSIS is completely free, open-source, most flexible installation engine, with most plug-ins and skins imaginable. And the time you put into learning its simple syntax will reward you greatly.

Duplicate post I put on the lounge forum:
As a long-time ReSharper user I got an email from them this morning letting me know there's a free download of their decompiler on their website. Here's the site:
http://blogs.jetbrains.com/dotnet/
I'm pretty sure that many of you know about the issue concerning Lutz Roeder's DotNet Reflector and the response to it that created the open source ILSpy. I liked ILSpy but I sort of got the impression that once created it dried up a little as the developers rightly have other jobs to do.
Having spent only a little time with JetBrain's DotNetPeek I think it's very good so far and it passed muster with an assembly that Redgate's version of DotNet Reflector had serious problems decompiling and which ILSpy was maybe 95% successful. DotNetPeek decompiled it 100% successfully and the side-by-side comparison to the original source code was bang on the money.
And, no, I don't work for JetBrains. Finally, the price is right, free. Wink | Smile |

Hello everyone,
Could anyone list out a few servers I can use, that are free, or any internet storage space I can use to write and delete files to and from really fast, because I'm using a remote control application to deploy on my computer and use it someone else. Also my application will send 3 to 4 screen shots a second, so speed and response is a vital factor here.
Simple Thanks and Regards,
Brandon T. H.

It tests relevant DNS servers for your locale, and reports on the relative speeds. It takes a few minutes to produce a report, but I can confirm it does seem to have speeded me up a bit.
In my case it recommended Google Public DNS, and the instructions to switch to that are here: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using[^] - they can be used with just an IP address change if you decide to change DNS as well.

It reported that my "current" DNS was the fastest. And that Paypal.com and Twitter are hijacked and pointing to some other server than the one I would expect.
Great tool!

I am now a big fan of Git source control and I am dumping SVN after 5 years.
Admittedly the Git command line tools are terrible, but you should use TortoiseGit which is the same as the SVN version http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/[^].
If you need a Git server for team development (which you don't really as Git works in disconnected mode also) check out this http://gitblit.com/[^] which is marvelous (it is java based but still great to work with).

"Valentina is a classic didone that follows some of the canons proposed by Bodoni in the eighteenth century but incorporates many of the characteristics of the antique Spanish punches of the time. It is a complete font of 457 glyphs, in which there are 125 alternative lower cases or the 46 ligatures."
