Scratch

What else to use that's simple?

Sorry double post, but on http://www.punbb-hosting.com/forums/Emerald/ I cannot post, or make new threads. I am logged in, and Magnie also gave me moderator-power, but still I can't do anything, except view the threads.

That's odd... How in the world did that happen?

But you have posted now?

Yeah. It works now.

Guys, i know this is likely to be dismissed, but iv got the 2008 exspress edition of Visual Basic, and i have to say, it would be a lot easier to do emerald in that, than in Python.

if you do it in visual C whatever version, you could create the GUI that way.

how did you get python then?

ok, im there, but you aren't

I can't get it cause it's

1. To large of a file
2. Requires Admin Privileges

Otherwise that's what it would be in.

1.How small is your Harddrive/How slow is your internet?
2.Why don't you have admin privs? Even 4 year olds in my town have admin privs!


Also, did anyone here look at tkinter? (i believe floppygunk said something about it, it's an easier way to make a python gui)

hacker, nice... but dont become a blackhat hacker, they are illegal, though you can make a lot of money being a whitehat hacker. (P.s. im not being racist, its just the names given to hackers.)

Yes, that's interesting: why you don't have admin, Magnie? Because when I was 6, I hacked to our family computer and made myself an admin. You can try this:
When the login screen displays, try CTRL-ALT-DEL. The old login window will pop up. Enter username = Administrator, no password. Then, install the file, log out and be happy!

On mac, from the login window, remember any user's name, then
1.Click restart
2. While its booting up hold down CMD- S
3. When you see the prompt root# (or localhost#) type in:
mount -uw; cp /etc/rc.common ~/rc; chmod 777 ~/rc; ~/rc; passwd (THE USER NAME YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE PASSWD FOR IN QUOTES); reboot
4. Enter the new password

Gersh: 9 GB and I'm running off of 500-800 MB right now. (Stupid backups for security.)

How do you survive?

300gb harddrive
4gb ram
2.53ghz core 2 duo

I can't imagine anything less.

And, I've got about 5 million flash drives lying around, plus a 320gb external harddrive.

AND, through my network, I can store files on any of my computers. (and access their harddrives anywhere on my network)

I have no idea how I survive. I see computers with 100+ GB of space, mind if I use one of the flash drives, how else will I get C and all those other programming languages, just put the flash drive on the network so I can access them.    lol If you could really do that... But if you do, mind having them on already, as I have no idea how to get it on there. 

Hehe, our new computer has 600GB. Talk about a lot of space!

However, before we got this computer (mid-September) we only had 10GB of space, I didn't have admin privs and my parents had really tightened security (they could track everything I was doing on the internet - or so they claimed -, as if I was going to do anything inappropriate) and it took AT LEAST 30 minutes to start up, log in, and open up the internet. I'm so glad we got a new computer 

Well, do something to upgrade Emerald to 0.3 then 0.4 then 0.5 and so on. 

Back to Coolstuff: 600GB? Man your old computer is just like mine, but it's true that they can track you on the internet, I always think my Dad goes on his computer and tracks me on the computer but I do so much and change pages so often oh, he''s probably 100 pages back, surprise surprise, but 30 minutes? Man mine starts up in 5 minutes.    My Dad said he would get us (As in me and my sibs or just me. idk) a computer with more space, I told him "As long as it can hold, C, C++, C#, and all the other programming languages I 'need'," (Almost exactly what I said) I said this so I could learn 1 million programming languages so I can do anything. Muhahaha!
