with Visual Studio. You can download them and use them as you wish.

Printer Preferences in AROS
This project is to deliver a working Printer Preferences for AROS (AROS Research Operating System). I have decided to use MUI (Magic User Interface) for the graphical interface (which by the way is my first MUI project), and will be Localized (another first for me) using FlexCat program. It will be available to download here and the AROS website.

H&P StormC Documents in English
Some of the documentation that comes with StormC is in German and not in English. So I have translated the German docs into English. Sorry, about the broken English in places as my German skills are pretty poor and the online translation facilities do not always get it right. Download contains english translations for: StormC4, Compiler, ProgramStart, Includes+Libs, StormEd, StormRun and StormDoc. Ones yet to do are: StormShell and PowerAsm (a biggy).

Naughts and Crosses Game
Date: 5/5/06
Updated: 24/08/08
This project helped me to learn Visual J# and Java using Swing mixing a turn
based game with an event based language. I tried using Java first but couldn't
get my head around the event based system, so I turned to Visual J# and Visual
Basic. Once those were done, I then switched to Java and Swing which is a very
nice language. You can play the game online and download the source here as
well for all the languages so you can see how it was done. J#, C++ and Java
are very similar, if you learn one you can learn the others very quickly, J#
is like Java but uses .NET for the interface instead of AWT or Swing but it
makes a good rapid development tool. If learning Java I would recommend a good
IDE rather than use Notepad, it'll save a lot of time.
Play the game (requires Java 1.4 or later)

Seen the new number plates in the UK? Ever wondered what they mean or which
region a car has come from? If so, then this program
will convert any number plate you enter into something more understandable.
Displays region, year and month of registration for you. Now
will convert the older pre-fix number plates into year of registration as well.
Written in VB and will run on any version of Windows. Requires .NET
Framework and Windows
Installer.
