I'm finaly back from Portugal to Taiwan, the trip was 30
hours long. My soon is very brave to support that!! He is
now running with it's electric car in the appartment, he
can't get sleep, so this gave me the opportunity to write
some diary :)
The last two months in Europe were quite
productive, thanks to a nice gift I made to myself before
leaving Taiwan: an Acer TravelMate 345T, quite an impressive
machine that gave me the opportunity to work on:
- the first draft for a free library managment software
(there)
- to build up freeduc a database to categorize free
software useable in education, the goal is more to allow to
package software than categorize, so that software can be
easily deployed.
- to work on Dr. Genius and finally to implement some old
stuff of a todo list (well there weren't in the todolist):
doublebuffering when moving a figure and a specific toolbar
per category of DrGeniusMDIChild. Actually only
DrgeoMDIChild use it. The last things may need some more
work as it works well only with one GnomeApp. The
DrgeoMDIChild toolbar also come with volatile sub toolbar.
Beside that, I was at the LSM event, a very cool non
commercial event.
The school will start in one week, it will be paintful to
slow down coding but I have decide to implement a database
to register and categorize math. exercice, the final goal of
the stuff is to allow teacher to build up quickly exercice
sheets from exercices in the database. Of course the
exercices have to be coded in LaTeX, DrGenius will be very
helpfull to design geometric figure in LateX or eps. Oh well
this will be a french specific stuff as I'm teaching in a
french school. Finally I got a very good excuse to keep
coding during this school year :)
