Sdl Basic - History

History

SdlBasic development started at December 2002, when its author, Vroby (Roberto Viola), got an idea on using SDL libraries on wxBasic core, instead of wxWidgets libraries. There were major releases in 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2012. Prior to 2005 any text editor was used to write program code. In 2005 an IDE was added. In 2012 the package was split into the IDE and the interpreter, although the IDE could be used to run code. Main download site is Sourceforge. The support site (online documentation and forum) has moved and has changed maintainer. Now to be found at the link added below, on altervista.org. The original author still contributes to the forum.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Every library should try to be complete on something, if it were only the history of pinheads.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    To a surprising extent the war-lords in shining armour, the apostles of the martial virtues, tend not to die fighting when the time comes. History is full of ignominious getaways by the great and famous.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)
