Can easily take a poke around.
Bob, you don't know how funny you are. Just cause I hang out here, doesn't mean I understand 1/4 of what I read. That's half the fun of it. (I don't know what the other half is)

svn checkout http://kindle-explorer.googlecode.com/svn/ kindle-explorer-read-only

'svn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

(sigh) Whatever happened to, "Bad command or file name."

actually, I'm not surprised that I don't have subversion installed, since we use TortoriseSVN. I thought maybe SVN was... maybe it is out there someplace, not in the path.

Anyway, I poked hfpop's source.
  1. CPP, that's C++, right?
  2. #define EDITOR "/mnt/us/extensions/leafpad/bin/leafpad" That's the line I want to change... I think that's called a macro, right? although it looks kinda like a constant...
  3. and then, you want me to compile it on an OS I know next to nothing about, in an environment I know even less about, using all kinds of mystical, magical libraries...
  4. If it'd been in TurboPascal 4.x I might have had a chance. If it'd been in FORTRAN, I might have had a chance. VB5 or VBA, a little shakier, but possible. COBOL... you're out on shaky ground. Any of this OOPs stuff, forget it.
  5. I was able to compile Wolfenstein once I found the correct version of TurboPascal, I was able to compile PrBoom with MFC 5, but only about 1/4 of my changes did what I wanted, I was able to get a clean compile on my Doom editor, whatever it was, but NONE of my changes worked there...
Consider the code poked, but I might like to take a look at the original code for 1.5 if you can tell me where (and how) to get it.
