I didn't say anything about compiling. What do you hope to gain by publishing the code? I'm assuming you've written GUI code? GUI code usually isn't a work of art.
- hutzlibu 5y agoErm. How could a visual language work with only gui code? I've written all sorts of code. Compiler, database, visual framework etc. And what do I hope to gain by publishing it and not keeping it proprietary? Well, a better world obviously. So idealistic reasons.
- jart 5y agoTerry Davis was an idealist. He created a public domain operating system and it earned him the reward of becoming a homeless man who was killed at a railway crossing. His work can't make the world a better place anymore because he's not here to work on it. What is your language doing for executables? I've been intending to offer an IDE of some sort for Actually Portable Executable for some time.
- hutzlibu 5y agoWell, "making the world a better place" is surely subjective. The taliban and the nazis want to make the world "better", too. And Terry Davis was a racist theocratist and had serious mental issues, so I think this is what lead to his sad ending, not that he choose the public domain for templeOS. And I think my ideals are more align to what is commonly accepted as "good". And more details about my project I will share, once it is released. I just have to make up my mind about the licence and do a screencast.
