Changelog

11-May-2016

Updated C++ Personal Assistant page. Added: "Raw source code text may be fine as input to a compiler, but not for a person" as "...much of what developers need to understand at any one time spans multiple classes or functions". I intend to write another page that goes into more detail and discusses some implications such as the possibility of "designing" software in code (which would allow TDD to be used on initial "designs").

29-April-2016

Added Linux and Windows demos for C++ Personal Assistant.

6-March-2016

Updated C++ Personal Assistant Mac demo. Function names are now included as context lines in the results window.

29-January-2016

Added a Mac demo for C++ Personal Assistant.

15-August-2015

"Fixed" title on main page.

The title was a Java applet. It just seems too hard to make it work on anything now. A Java plugin must first be installed and a recent Java plugin will ask if the user trusts running the applet (a ridiculous question given the applet doesn't do anything of a security concern). If the user says they trust the applet the plugin will refuse to run it anyway stating it can't be trusted - the plugin should never have requested for the user to authorise running the applet if it was always going refuse to run it!

The title is now created using SVG ("Scalable Vector Graphics").
