This is my first attempt to create (in BlitzMax and for BlitzMax) a Synaptic-clone. The program downloads (from my site) a list of applications that can be downloaded and further installed. BlitzMax Companion will install SubVersion (and it will create links on desktop if required for Install & Update batch files) and MinGW (it should automatically modify the Path and installs a new environment variable MingW as required in the manual installation) The list of applications includes - SubVersion - FrameWork Assistant - Help Search Utility - UPX - ResHacker - MinGW * the application ask for BlitzMax path and WinRAR. It can be required to decompress some files. ZIP files are managed directly by the Companion.

Hey degac, Just had a quick look at the video and it looks like something a lot of first-time BlitzMax'ers may find useful. I'll take a closer look tomorrow, but from what I can see, it looks really well made. Well done! |

BlitzMaxCompanion v.1.2 is on line and it should works without problems. What is new in v.1.2 + you can choose a different path to install BlitzMax via SVN + BlitzMax itself already installed is not more required (see option above) + after the MinGW installation the program asks the user the permission to restart the system to make the changes effective. http://www.graphio.net/download/BlitzMaxCompanion.zip (win32) Comments, critic and suggestions are welcomed. |
