Somewhat obviously, my name is Erik Siers. I seem to be the current BASIC cheerleader on RC. (I can do other languages, but I prefer BASIC by a lot.) |
|||
I've been working on a [http://sourceforge.net/projects/visible/ VB4/5/6-to-ANSI-C/C++ translator] for a while. A ''long'' while -- first got the idea several years ago. No released code as yet, but it's progressing... slowly. ''Really'' slowly. One problem is that I'm writing it in VB6, so that it can translate itself (a [[wp:Self-hosting|self-hosting compiler]]). I also need to do it without using any API calls whatsoever. (Not ''that'' hard, but I've already had to kick myself a few times.) |
|||
I could use some help, actually. Anyone familiar with non-[[.Net Framework|.Net]] [[Visual Basic]], [[C]], or (especially) [[C++]] would be very much appreciated. If you wanna join the party, [[User_talk:Eriksiers|drop me a line]]. |
|||
=Current events= |
|||
My Befunge interpreter sucks. I've gone back to working on [http://sourceforge.net/projects/visible/ Visible]. |
|||
=Operating Systems= |
|||
I use a lot of OS's: |
|||
*[[MS-DOS]] 7.1 |
|||
*Slackware [[Linux]] |
|||
*[[Mac OS]] 7 (aka [[wp:System 7|System 7]]) |
|||
**[[A/UX]] under emulation... eventually... maybe... |
|||
***'''FAILED''' -- doesn't work on my ''real'' Mac! sob! |
|||
*[[Windows]] XP |
|||
:stupid garbage OS is giving me problems with games... '''THAT'S THE MAIN REASON I STILL USE WINDOWS!!!''' |
|||
I don't use [[BSD]]. I don't have anything against it, but I'm too used to the Linux way of doing things, and BSD is just... ''different''. (Okay, I suppose that Linux is the different one, but you know what I mean.) I've got a few flavors of BSD on CD, but I'm not willing to try them again any time soon. |
|||
=My code contributions= |
|||
Unless otherwise specifically indicated, I disclaim any rights I might have to any code that I have posted to Rosetta Code, and assign any appropriate copyright to [[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]]. (Everything posted to RC is automatically covered by the GNU FDL.) |
|||
This specifically applies to code that '''''I''''' have posted. ''Other people's'' code that I have made changes to belongs to them, not me, and I disclaim any rights I might have to those changes. |
|||
My very first RC edit was adding [[BASIC]] to the task [[Convert an integer into words]] (now [[Number names]]). (My most recent edit, aside from this page and the new [[User:Eriksiers/My email|My email]] page, was fixing that edit so that it works properly. Sigh.) |
|||
My 100th edit was the [[QuickBasic]] -> [[QuickBASIC]] redirect page. |
|||
My 250th edit was the [[Windows Scripting Host]] -> [[Windows Script Host]] redirect page. |
|||
I haven't yet reached 500 edits but it'll happen sooner or later. |
|||
==Unsorted Code== |
|||
Some stuff that I wanted to put up here, but don't have any idea how to categorize (or else they don't fit any one category very well, or whatever). |
|||
* [[User:Eriksiers/Prime numbers|Prime numbers]] |
|||
* [[User:Eriksiers/to OS|to OS]] (I really need to update this one...) |
|||
* [[User:Eriksiers/My email|My email]] |
|||
=Links= |
|||
I put up my programming links on [[User:Eriksiers/Links|their own page]]. Have fun. |
|||
'''[[wp:User:Eriksiers|This]]''' is my Wikipedia user page. (Wikipedia is also probably the best way to contact me right now, since my email addresses are sorta in limbo...) |
|||
'''[http://sourceforge.net/users/eriksiers/ This]''' is my Sourceforge profile. |
|||
My Sourceforge projects: |
|||
* [http://eeshell.sourceforge.net/ EEShell2] -- a replacement shell for 32-bit Windows |
|||
* [http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/igrokya/ IgrokYa] -- a file type identifier (like file(1)) |
|||
* [http://sourceforge.net/projects/kanjifinder/ KanjiFinder] -- a tool to help English-speaking users find Japanese [[wp:kanji|kanji]] (data files never completed) |
|||
* [http://proxlat.sourceforge.net/ Proxlat] -- a general-purpose binary translator (effectively abandoned as freakin' impossible) |
|||
* [http://sourceforge.net/projects/quickrun/ QuickRun] a simple program launcher (started as part of EEShell2) |
|||
* [http://sourceforge.net/projects/visible/ Visible] -- a Visual Basic-to-C/C++ translator (in progress) |
|||
* [http://sourceforge.net/projects/eriks-tools Erik's tools] -- a small handful of tiny utilities I wrote (I really need to update this one...) |
