I’ve been working on a longer, reverse-engineering piece about Neuromancer, but couldn’t get it finished in time to post this week. In it’s place, a simple javascript implementation of the game’s code wheel.
As I’ve mentioned before, I like to use the DOS DEBUG command to investigate older 16-bit programs. Today, I present a brief guide to using that tool to take snapshots of running programs.
This is a quick guide to setting up an Amazon EC2 instance as a Django server. There are many other guides along these lines, but this one includes a “turn-key” script to get everything up and running, as well as an implementation of the “polling” example from the Django tutorial.
Thanks, guys.
If you want to write scripts for Windows, you have some unattractive options. You can use the DOS batch-file scripting language, but that’s a little on the primitive side. You can learn PowerShell (Monad), a typically overwrought, idiosyncratic MSFT affair. Or, you can pursue a better option: you can use JavaScript to script Windows.
