An Open Source Project that ignores Linux in favor of Windows... I lived to see this one :shock:
As if Windows coders don't prefer Visual Studio... or the free version VS Express...
I get more disappointed in C::B everyday. Maybe if I fall asleep for a year, and I come back, C::B will be usable on Linux? :?
Well, sigh. We don't favor any OS above another. But there are much more windows users then linux ones, so the number of feedback will be bigger in that corner. And I hope we would be able to guess your favorite dirstro of linux, cause otherwise we were again favoring the wrong one.
By the way, what's so dreadfully wrong with vi ;-)
Secundo, why would people prefer Visual Studio, some do, others don't. There are a bunch of good things to say about VS, but also a lot of bad things. And we all know how fast M$ is for fixing bugs. In the meantime the bug that was *so* offending you has already been fixed.
On the risk of stepping on your toes : maybe it's a good idea you fell asleep for a year, at least you won't be offending people putting their heart into this project. Because some of the developers (and rest a sure I am not talking about myself) deserve the upmost respect, it's incredible what they are doing, and sometimes and a very high speed.
I do hope you realize that with such an attitude you are just breaking down open source projects instead of supporting them.
Nevertheless, I'd like to offer you an alternative : install wine, go buy Visual Studio and run it in Wine.
