We use programs everyday and I am guessing Java was used to make these forums.

For me, I need Visual Studio and Photoshop.

Tell me, what do you need?

Spybot
Adaware
Windows
Assorted games
Opera

[Wasn;t phbb used for these?]

A kernel.

Did you mean applications?

Wrong.

The .php within the URL signifies the fact that PHP was the language of choice. Most likely in combination with MySQL, XHTML, and quite possibly even some CSS.

• Bit Torrent / uTorrent
• Firefox
• iTunes
• Open Office
• QuickTime
• VLC Player

Flash! Adobe Photoshop! Firefox! Stuff!

Firefox, Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger, Winamp (gotta have music!)

Obviously you need to use a few more programs, there are no Java applets anywhere on the forums. Unless you mean JavaScript, which has no relation to Java whatsoever (the name was a marketing gimmick, in fact).

[url]www.php.net[/url] and [url]www.mysql.com[/url] are used in the majority of forum software, including this one, for all server-side operations. JavaScript also plays a role in spicing up the client-side of things, although its use is entirely optional (not all users have JavaScript turned on for security reasons).

I assume you want programming program suggestions.
- http://labs.msdn.microsoft.com/express/ Free version of Visual Studio 2005 Express Edition components.
- http://www.bloodshed.net/ Dev-C++, a popular free IDE for mingw (a free C++ compiler).
- http://nsis.sourceforge.net/ NSIS, a free scripting language by the makers of Winamp. It allows you to create installers with minimal effort... the nicest feature, I think, is that it writes most of the uninstaller for you once you tell it what files it'll install.

I think that's it. I do most of my non-C++ work in Notepad.

For graphic programs, there's the GIMP, Paint.NET, and Microsoft Expression Graphic Designer. You can look them up on your own. They're all free... I find them reasonable substitutions for Photoshop considering the price difference.

[url]www.irfanview.com[/url] is a very good image viewer and converter. It can open most images and even some other non-image formats. It also has some basic image filters and the like included. I often use this along with MS Paint if I need to directly modify/draw an image in some small way. For larger image projects I use the GIMP, although Photoshop users will likely be confused by its interface, the other two programs I mentioned are a closer match.

MS/Star/Open Office (gotta have productivity)
Adobe Photoshop/Imageready / MSPaint (useful for making forum peoples laugh)
iTunes (despite its shortcomings, it's an excellent music organiser)
Picasa (with a picture collection nearing 10,000 [not even including porn], this is definitely essential)
Premiere / Windows Movie Maker (nice to be able to edit video when needed)
Goldwave / Audacity (also nice to edit audio)
Microsoft Acrylic Beta (have to turn back the clock a bit, but no way am I paying full price for something I can get by making my computer think it's 2005)
Messenger (because the cool kids don't use AIM)
Nero (because hot girls pay attention to me when I make DVDs for them)
WMP/VLC (VLC for those hard-to-play codecs)
Firefox (because IE7 looks crappy with my current scheme)
Ad-Aware (because spyware sucks)
Bittorrent/Bitcomet (legal uses only, of course. Right? RIGHT?)

That's pretty much it for now. I haven't had the need to use anything else lately.

http://www.joinfear.com <------ F.E.A.R. Combat, free. Totally fun. Totally rad weapons like a super nail gun, and a particle cannon.

Fixed.

You have many disturbing issues, all of which can be solved by several swift blows to the head -- preferably with some sort of blunt instrument, such as a pipe wrench.

Nevermind. *snicker*

C > Perl

That's because C is good for systems programming but useful for everything, and Perl is useful for everything but good for nothing.

I didn't read the rest of the posts. what's going on itt?

I have to disagree -- Perl is *excellent* for text processing/manipulation.

Er, apparently my post flew right over your head. I'm not arguing that this forum uses JSP. I'm pointing out that your statement that there are "no applets anywhere on the forums" is absurd, since JSP would be a much more intelligent choice.

Don't worry. He doesn't have one (other than making himself look foolish).

If I have to process a lot of text, I would probably just write a parser with lex/yacc or something of the like. Scripting languages are good for smaller jobs though.

As far as I know, there are no Java applets on the forum. Anywhere.
