So you haven't found the leaks yet...

You say it takes time, yet you say you're already working on it - and you will go back and write one for a game?

So if you follow code reuse then you would just code your game-menus. Why waste time in MFC and then go back and do a portable gui library?

>>Another advantage is, that everyone can >>work with it, because it's standard !!

C,C++ is ANSI standard - I would hardly call code that M$ can change as it wills as a standard.

If you can code "everyone can work with it".
Clean code like Chris' - everyone can work with it. If you can think clearly and code correctly everything will be fine(document too ).

>>I could write a nice, fancy GUI for my >>editor, but if I give it to the people who >>work with that, they have to learn how to >>use it. If they see a standard Windows->>Program they can begin immediately with >>their work !!

Who said anything about a fancy gui? Why not just copy windows controls and gui - hell copy the function calls if want. Then it'll be "standard".

>>I don't understand why so much >>people "hate" Microsoft.

People say "If you've never been robbed - you never been robbed" - when it happens you'll finally understand.

>>They are good. Let's see DirectX !
>>Firstly all programmers said : It's bad, >>it's slow, it's damn complicated.

Good- hahahahah - ok, Where was Directx5 on NT? Why did microsoft have to control who could use directx where. I never said it's slow - I never said its complicated. Why did they try to mess up opengl - what were they trying to stop? Why did carmack pick opengl over directx? They were trying to stop people from freedom to choose baby!
DirectX is faster but opengl is everywhere and not controlled by an org bent on keeping people on their platform. Someday when 2000 ships nt users will finally have a directx version(with better api calls - when)

>>Now, where everybody is into it, they >>say : Oh great API !!

I never said that.

>>What IDE are you using ?? Microsoft Visual C/C++ ?? Why ?? Because it's the best one !!

Code Fusion, Medit, Code Right.

How come M$ Blind C:

tries to hide ANSI & STL stuff

no color printing ( version 99 sp843?)

sp2 of 6.0 has bad problems

syntaxing - stolen from borland - in the beginning all they had was black & white.

how many versions of blind c shipped and we still don't have the powerful editing of above mentioned editors.

how come I need a 29' monitor to see my code on one screen with all the aids.
