well, i'd volunteer but i can't estimate any time needed for a basically usable result. i'm an 11th grade student so more important things may pop up in near future... (in case you worry, i think (as a least instance) i'm capable of writing clean (concerning memory), structured and reliable code -- but as the ncurses faq says, the library doesn't like to free(3) its internal stuff for it may be needed later; unless you configure it to do so...) as soon as i figured out how to write components for gambas using the c interface, i'll start anyway... regards, tobi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
