Now with more bloat, dependencies:

Someone just compiled a turd. Hmm, how can we make a bigger mess of things. Lets make it harder to install, use, and maintain. Then we can make it really slow. Oh yeah we can add in annoying crap to make it more like M$ Office too. Enjoy.

Now with organized feed reading yummy goodness:

A special thanks goes out to my fellow GNU users who need want to program under MS Windows. Eventhough they don’t provide a random function MinGW is definately a must for those wishing to create good native software under MS Windows. For those who want to preserve there voice anyway. I will try to share some lessons learned as I fully figure out how to get things working right. Here is a little nugget in the mean time since MS does not provide strtok_r

char *c_strtok_r( char *str, char *delim, char **save_ptr ) {
  char *ptr;

  if( !str ) {
    if( !*save_ptr || !**save_ptr )
      return( NULL );
    str = *save_ptr;
  }

  while( *str && strchr( delim, *str ) )
    ++str;

  if( !*str )
    return( NULL );

  ptr = str;

  while( *ptr && !strchr( delim, *ptr ) )
    ++ptr;

  *save_ptr = *ptr ? ptr + 1 : ptr;
  *ptr = '\0';

  return( str );
}

I am having a little trouble getting back to posting so I decided to post a programming nugget. This is a nice little way to get a clear picture of your CVS working area:

cvs status | egrep “(Need|Mod)”

I have this in my .bashrc:

alias cvsstatus cvs status | egrep “(Need|Mod)”
