Using FLTK with Code::Blocks for Windows

The following versions were used: fltk v1.3.3, Code::Blocks 16.01, and Windows 7

1. Download fltk-1.3.3-source.tar.gz from http://www.fltk.org/software.php and extract it to C:\

2. Download the installer mingw-get-setup.exe from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/. In the MinGW Installation Manager, make sure to install mingw-developer-toolkit, mingw32-base, mingw32-gcc-g++ and msys-base

3. Start msys by launching msys.bat found in C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\

4. Type the following in msys:
cd /c/ (This changes the directory to the C drive)
cd fltk-1.3.3 (This changes the directory to C:\fltk-1.3.3. To check your current working directory, you can type pwd)
./configure
make
make install

5. To successfully create a FLTK project in Code::Blocks, use Solution #1 in http://www.complete-concrete-concise.com/programming/fltk/using-fltk-with-codeblocks

Add shortcut for quit kernel in Mathematica

1. Navigate to Program Files/Wolfram Research/.../.../SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/Windows/

2. Edit the KeyEventTranslations.tr file

3. Example: If you want to add a shortcut for quit kernel, then insert the following into the file:       

Item[KeyEvent["q", Modifiers -> {Control}],

               FrontEndExecute[

                       FrontEndToken[

                                SelectedNotebook[],

                                "EvaluatorQuit",

                                Automatic

                       ]

               ]

       ],

This will assign Ctrl+q as a shortcut for quit kernel

Getting Code::Blocks to work with regex in Windows

The current stable release of Code::Blocks 13.12 comes with GCC v4.7.1, which does not implement regex. Regex was implemented and released in GCC 4.9.0

1. Download tdm-gcc from http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/
2. After installing, open Code::Blocks. Go to Settings -> Compiler -> Toolchain executables
3. Change the Compiler's installation directory to where tdm-gcc was installed. (Default is C:\TDM-GCC-64)
4. Direct the C compiler to gcc.exe, C++ compiler to g++.exe, and linker for dynamic libs to g++.exe. These are all found in the 'bin' folder, i.e. C:\TDM-GCC-64\bin
5. Make sure in the compiler settings, 'Have g++ follow the C++11 ISO C++ language standard' is checked

Getting Code::Blocks to work with std_lib_facilities.h

In Stroustrup's book, 'Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++', one must include the header file. This won't work in Code::Blocks without some modification.

First, go to settings→compiler→ and make sure 'Have g++ follow the C++11 ISO C++ language standard' is checked.

Then comment out or delete the following  in the std_lib_facilities.h as shown below:

#ifdef _MSC_VER
 // microsoft doesn't yet support C++11 inheriting constructors
 Vector() { }
 explicit Vector(size_type n) :std::vector<T>(n) {}
 Vector(size_type n, const T& v) :std::vector<T>(n,v) {}
 template <class I>
 Vector(I first, I last) : std::vector<T>(first, last) {}
 Vector(initializer_list<T> list) : std::vector<T>(list) {}
#else
 using std::vector<T>::vector; // inheriting constructor
#endif

Rainmeter Network

A modified version of the default Rainmeter network skin found in the illustro package. Theme is the same as illustro. In addition to the features found in the default network skin, this also tracks the total data uploaded and downloaded each month. At the start of each month it will write the data to a text file and reset the data usage.
