Merry Christmas

Post by RNBW »

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to Richard and all users of LBB.

I've had eye problems over the last 18 months so I have done very little programming because of the glare from the computer screen.

I've just started trying to program again and it's amazing how quickly you forget the keywords and programming procedures. I know I'm getting old, but I didn't think I'd forget so much, so quickly. It's like being a novice again.

So, I've been doing some reading up on the forum and looking at some of the code being used and running it to try to get a feel for it.

What I have found useful is the old LBB Forum (the very last link on this Forum). There is some very useful code and techniques to be found there. If Users don't look there, I would advise you to. It is enlightening.

Hopefully, I'll be able to pick up LBB again and come up with something useful. My background is Structural Engineering (a very very long time ago) and Building Construction. I'd like to write some associated code, but the other problem is that methods have changed considerably since I used to do Structural Design.

Oh well, it will help keep my mind active during my dotage!

I have forgotten virtually everything I ever knew about Liberty BASIC (and hence LBB), since I have been programming exclusively in BBC BASIC for the last few years.

Hi Richard
At least I'm not on my own. Despite my difficulties with LB Administrators in the past, I've always liked LB/LBB, but it is easy to forget the ins and outs of it. Hopefully, it will all come back to me.
