Congratulations, VirtualWolf. The problem with the arrow keys is unfortunately quite common with vi, e.g. on Solaris. Usually, the cure is to ... install vim On my Mac, it wor…

Just use cc the gnu c compiler ------------------ Cheers and Beers, Mr. M. Chown (Man Chown) ========================

The Java VM will never cache classes anywhere - I have even written code that will reload classes through the system classpath and it works fine. More than likely the package you …

I'm very interested in growing this discussion if possible. I've been using CodeWarrior on MacOS for about a year, doing Java only. Last week I spent half a day trying to get one o…

For compiling code, use Project>Add Framework and choose a .jar file. However, how to get these added to the classpath the clickable app uses is still beyond me.

rollerdexter: codewarrior pro 6 for osx is out if you want it. As for the classpath (although I haven't got my copy of osx yet) I know from my linux java headaches that each shell…

The only way to be absolutely sure is to: 1 - track down ALL neccessary jars, 2 - start a terminal and completely erase the CLASSPATH (I never use this anyway, it is asking f…

You can look at JavaBrowser's preferences to see what's in the classpath, which directories it's using for documentation, and which directories it's using for source code. I don't …

I have the same problem. I need to use drand48() and it doesn't seem to be in the stdlib.h either.

Yeah, there is no drand48, as far as I know. Here's what I put in my code: </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Geneva, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">code:&lt…

If you've never programmed, you could start with applescript. It's nice object oriented language, and you'll learn many of the concepts. Perl isn't too bad as a first language eith…

I started with bying MetroWorks Discover Programming and read the books Programming i C on the Macitosh and Programming in C++ on the Macintosh both written by Dave Mark (I think).…

Try using "cc" in the terminal. It's a c and objective c compiler (at least that's what the man page says). A good idea is to look at the developer forum for more info on compilers…

I'm going move this one to Mac OS Developer. Click through to find the post.

Hmmm...not sure what you mean..."cc filename"? That gives me "OK? wc filename?", which then defaults to "NO" no matter what I do. Anyone else know what I'm doing wrong???? I'm i…

What they forgot to ask was if you had the developer's tools installed. If not, you can sign up to be an Apple developer and download them. The basic membership is free (web only) …

You mean I need the developer's tools just to write any program at all? Ah. That MIGHT be my problem.... Thanks...... greg ------------------ Though the day's been really lo…

BTW: more info on the carbonated Emacs... It's version 19.14 and is *DAWWWG* slow. I love emacs; but, I'll stick with the Terminal.app-bound, fast, v.20.7.1 version.

You mean there's another, faster program included in the terminal? How do I access it???? I'm new to all this stuff...especially Unix, so it's confusing sometimes... greg -----…

I think he refers to the version of emacs that you run "inside" the terminal. Just write "emacs" without the " in a terminal and emacs will start. Good luck /Gabbe

Thanks! Now I wonder is there is a way to fix this so I don't have to type ./
