Thanks for the brave effort, but the issue was Phillip's documentation vs. my documentation. btw, no argument: Phillip is a fine writer. meanwhile...

As you say, you "didn't read anything in detail", nor have you now commented on the readability of the very long excerpt I posted from 01-cell-basics.lisp.

Instead, the topic gets shifted to the quality of the installation instructions. I could look at those, but this is easier:

You win! I give up!


I tried to learn cells once but had a similar experience as the person you
are now flaming. So I'll just go ahead and say it:

Kenny, your documentation sucks ...

Well the theme I am trying to develop here is that (a) no, it is fine and (b) this is a two-way street. I posted some very reasonable doc, and no one has said a word against it. Including you, Mr. Helpful. :)

...and you are less than fucking helpful.

Meet me halfway, dude. I have developed bindings and lispification for OpenGL, Freeglut, ImageMagick, OpenAL, FTGL, and now with FG Tcl/Tk/Togl. I have developed two portable CL GUIs atop those libraries, and am this week merging them so the fuller GUI will also be natively portable to where Tk is portable.

I have also shared this code, which takes three times the effort of just developing it. (Or is it nine? yes, I think it is nine.)

Some people have helped, others did fine without help.

Ask not your Open Source Fairy can do for you, Novus. Ask what you can do for your Fairy.


Have a nice day.

Porting Cello from Freeglut to Celtk? I don't think so. :)
