Question: Do you use GetPrivateProfileString (and siblings) or just load the INI file into a data structure and work in our own way?
Asked by Rodrigo (177.96.48.x) on February 19 2013, 1:54pm
Reply on February 20 2013, 2:33am:
    Depends on the performance requirements and use cases, but I'll use both.

Question: You should license WALTER to Steinberg, because their own new graphics engine is way too bloated...

Reply on February 17 2013, 4:03pm:
    At some point, not sure how reusable it is at this point, though.

Question: What would be the biggest task of the last 5% ?
Asked by Alexander (213.162.68.x) on February 15 2013, 1:46am
Reply on February 15 2013, 5:34pm:
    Not breaking the first 95%.

Question: Do you know Adobe's Source Code Pro font ( bit.ly/YbRQjs )? I guess I'm in love with it, looks perfect at 9pt.

    Hah no, but I'll check it out.

Question: 95% complete? Don't you think there will always be more (as yet undreamed of) features wanted, even 100 years from now?
Asked by ees. (69.15.110.x) on February 15 2013, 1:18am
Reply on February 15 2013, 4:48am:
    Of course, but that makes the whole number scale meaningless. REAPER can never get to 100%, it can only approach it.

Question: Is it better to "keep on trucking" if you don't want to check every single retval for every single function call you ever make?
Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on February 14 2013, 8:15pm
Reply on February 14 2013, 10:25pm:
    It depends -- if logically you can proceed even if the function fails, then sure, ignore. If you need to handle the error, that should happen in the code. IMO of course.

Question: Reaper 4.32 on a scale from 0 (newborn) to 100 (not the final, but feature-complete as you would like to see it in any case)?
Asked by Alexander (213.162.68.x) on February 14 2013, 7:06pm
Reply on February 14 2013, 10:24pm:
    probably 95, but of course the last 5% takes 90% of the time.

    Dunno, I know some people who have enjoyed one on the iPad, but not sure how the advantageous compare against the drawbacks...

Question: What's so bad about STL exceptions?
Asked by Jeremy (178.147.233.x) on February 14 2013, 3:48pm
Reply on February 14 2013, 4:49pm:
    I don't think the feeble human brain can properly comprehend how unpredictable exceptions make things.

Question: What's so sad about CSS/DOM? Is it more sad than a WndProc and a ginormous switch statement?
Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on February 13 2013, 10:00pm
Reply on February 13 2013, 11:52pm:
    It's horribly inconsistent across browsers, for one.

Question: goo.gl/eZMzg Some people seem concerned.

Reply on February 13 2013, 1:29pm:
    It shouldn't matter to REAPER at all, but whether the driver loses efficiency is up to the driver's code.

Reply on February 13 2013, 4:13am (edited at February 13 2013, 4:14am):
    Mmm good stuff. I do like javascript, it's really the DOM and CSS that make me sad. Watching that, however, I find myself wanting to add an 'int' hint for EEL2 variables so you can have it optimize integer operations...

Question: North Korea's nuclear test is successful, how do you see?
Asked by noeth (85.49.232.x) on February 12 2013, 2:36pm
Reply on February 13 2013, 4:14am:
    It's crazy to think about how even if the leader of North Korea wanted to end the isolation, he probably couldn't, since others in the military would prevent it... :/

Question: How can Midi controllers be used to control other software?
Asked by Scott (99.58.136.x) on February 12 2013, 1:53am
Reply on February 12 2013, 1:34pm:
    You'd need a software layer to handle that.
