HI Michael! Thanks! This is fantastic news on FreeRouting.net finally going open source. I was afraid it would disappear forever and we’d all be screwed. Now it is part of the permanent internet landscape! The tool is now finally a standalone Windows/Linux application and that is even better. Is it still a Java application? Can it be compiled to a Windows/Linux native binary? I would think just native compilation would improve performance some if only a small amount. Thanks for letting us know about this and putting it on the wiki. Have a great day! From: n8vem...@googlegroups.com [mailto:n8vem...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Michael Narigon Hi John, Here is a link to the folder that I put the example in as well as the main file: FreeRouting-net. Making files with just the programs will be easy to do, I will upload. Thanks to you guys. Michael Me again Michael, thanks for the URL to the FreeRouter download. There seems to be an enormous amount of stuff there ( I assume most, only for developers) but I clicked on “FreeRouter.exe” in the \dist folder and it came up as a small window immediately on my Windows 8 (64 bit version). I loaded an 80286 .dsn file and it appears to be working on it fine. FYI, attached here is a picture of my desktop. This is a generic Windows 8.1 setup – nothing special. I was wondering if it would make sense to have a simple/small download for people that just want to use the software to optimize .dsn files (make .ses files) without all the extra source files. For some of us – and definitely me, what you have there is overwhelming, I would never dare go into the guts of it. One other thing, I must be “slow” but I can never seem to find things on pbworks. Could you also give me the URL for the “LED flasher”. Is there some trick to finding new entries. I don’t see for example a folder for QAutrouter. Thanks again John -- |
