About Firecode, HLX Editor, and this Blog
This is a public blog where I post my progress for my main project, Firecode.
Firecode is a command shell replacement for Windows and (in the future) other operating systems. It can do anything it's predecesor can do and more. Think of it as a way to do tasks
that would otherwise require a mouse. My goal with this project is to provide an up-to-date look and feel to the command shell world. Many shells do not take advantage of new technologies offered these days. Also, I will publish general findings in the course of my work, including solutions and workarounds to the many challenges of programming in C++ and assembler. I wish to remind myself and others that I do not wish to discuss CLR or the .NET framework library (yes this includes frameworks built on .NET like WPF). I do however welcome discussions on stability-proven frameworks such as MFC and ATL to name a few. For now I would like to keep exposure to COM at a minimal until it is really needed for the project, and I welcome and value anyone else's input. Like I said before, nobody is probably going to participate in this blog--so I am mainly using it as a personal online progress log (the PROGRESS text file included in firecode 9.0.2 prerelease builds).
