I don't think that is the reality at all, unfortunately. The terms are used interchangably all the time. There's also FOSS which seems to merge them. The same seems to be happening with OS and FS as philosophies in that most? people seem to

Ant, waf, and the rest of them are usually overkill IMHO. With makefiles the basics are simple and straightforward and I'd argue that most uses only require the basics, it's like what I've been hearing about autotools these days but even au

Well I didn't see you offering to pay me to write in anything else so excuse me if I don't take your advice, and going to php.net is just time wasting if your IDE provides that info right there and then. After that you didn't address the C+

I dislike IDEs for all their features which for the most part I think just add clutter, since I've ever found a use for most of them like debuggers etc. but I'll admit that they are useful if done right and can bring a productivity boost. W

Another alternative to following along might be to try and reimplement the code as you go along in another language you may know, the code is easy to follow and with very good explanations about what you're intending to do it shouldn't be
