I’m Programming Again!
I may still have pain in my face, a left hand that doesn’t know its Alt from its Control or Caps Lock, but I have to do something so I’m starting to program again. Or should I say reprogramming again as I’m only updating each of my Daisy Web Tools for 2011!
The first one that I will reprogram is the Presentation Browser. I wrote this a few years ago, to solve the problem of being able to print or capture a clean image of a web page, without the toolbar and all the other things that insist on being printed, when you do this from within Internet Explorer or another browser.
I shall announce the program here when it is ready. All of the Daisy Web Tools, will be available separately and free.

This is really to test out how the gallery in WordPress works.

It seems to work fairly well although there are the usual inconsistencies that programmers tend to create. I’m not saying I’m any better, but I work hard to have a philosophy that is the same everywhere.
Sometimes I fail, but I usually get there in the end.
But take here. I’m trying to get the space under the picture exact, so that the gallery fits in nicely. But I’m having trouble. It should be easy! My father, a printer, who was a stickler for layout would not have been amused.
Just Like Old Times
Years ago, when I was writing Artemis, I was always to be found at the computer from about five in the morning or even earlier. My late wife would be snug in bed.
But then when I wake up I get up. And guess what, it’s now just before five and after waking up from a strange dream, I am now at the computer.
Am as I as productive as I was in the 1970s?
Probably not, but I still have the stamina to program for twelve hours a day. On the other hand, there are a lot more algorithms in my mind now, so I don’t have to spend time finding them!
