OMG this is really frickin awesome. I found out about FreeBASIC maybe 4-5 months ago but I haven't done a whole lot with it. My only programming experiance is GameMaker, HTML, JavaScript, a really small bit of Java, and a some ActionScript. None of those are very close to FreeBASIC and none of them include a game loop(I figured that out mostly on my own). I will definately buy a copy of this book for myself and probably one for my Game Dev partner.

actually, html is a markup language (hence the name) rather than a programming language. I suppose it is giving a computer a set of instructions to follow, but none of the usual language constructs are supported.blackviper91 wrote:Actually it is.

Calling HTML programming is like calling CSS programming, or XML programming. These are computer languages, but they are not programming languages.

Might be worth going into more detail there in the book.In menu item View/settings/tab FreeBASIC I want
to add the -exx switch but am not sure which
text box to add it to?
Richard D. Clark's FBeginner.pdf says add -exx
to the end of your compiler string in FBIde but
doesn't explain how?

hi
i can help translating the book to brazilian portuguese (my native speaking language)...just send me the sources in the format you are current writing (OO would be a good choice)
if you want more flexibility in the output format i suggest using docbook or some XML-Based format...they can output a lot of formats, including the already mentioned CHM and HTML, latex, etc

I will keep that in mind. It might be good to have various translations available for the downloadable versions.danielt3 wrote:hi

Sweet
I love this book :)
rdc, can I suggest something? Please realize that I probably didn't do my research properly.
Can you make a single book page to link to? You know, a little project page that tells a little bit about yourself, why you are so great (you are, really, may I call you Yoda, or is Master RDC ok?), updates, a link to the HTML version and PDF version.
This may be completely pointless from your viewpoint, but it would give people like me something to link to from their websites. :)
