I've been working on the Qeyboard, and pushing for ethernet hardware to be
available, so we can help John Dent finish his TCP/IP stack - which I
suspect will do more for the QL than most realise.
I've also signed up to write an email client for all. Signed up, in the
"I'm dedicating myself to this task" sense of the word.
However, I've been away for a very long time, and have forgotten most of
my QL-related programming knowledge, having become fat and lazy with my
bash shell and gcc compiler. Therefore, I'm asking you what tools you
think I should take advantage of and what tools to avoid. I have to build
a software library from scratch, which I am sure will make the traders
happy ;)
Hmmm let me see...
Presuming you plan to program this in BASIC, I would suggest you need at least the following:
Qliberator or Turbo compiler (Turbo is still the fastest and PD)
QRef cross-reference tool
EasyPTR - definite must to create menus.
Q-Help - gives info on using all keywords (plug for my software at last)
