Re: curses ?
I always hated Pascal - I mean that piece of sh1t was designed for students in the first place, fking requirement to declare variables on top of the function sucked badly, but to be honest the real thing that always pissed me off was having to use := instead of = - I mean for fks sake! The whole language seemed to have been created to aid compiler - ie to make compiling fast, about the only thing PAscal was good about.
BURN IN HELL PASCAL I SAY!!!

Guest repliedcurses ?
God - I hated that. My first job we got a contract to convert some code from pascal to C, and it turned out the pascal had some homebrewed/hacked about version of curses in it.
The ONLY time I have ever used setjmp()
(well apart from the once to obscure what I was doing on a job for a consultancy that treated us like $£!^)

Guest started a topic rere
Does anyone know how I can print out to the console on the same line using Java? ie. to show a percentage rising?
For example:
System.out.println(pc) would do:
1
2
3
4
System.out.print(pc) would do:
1234
But I want to keep it on the same line so I can only see one figure updating. Do I have to use backspace or something?Tags: None
