• Guitarbar Open-Source Release

  Guitarbar the barre chord tutor, originally commercial software produced for Softdisk (the software company that incubated id), has been released as open-source. The original code (and exe) are available but work with commercial compiler Mix Power C. But today we posted a port (source and exe) to Turbo C 2.01 , the Borland free 16 bit compiler. See... http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,20841,00.html Right now guitarbar is a character mode 16 bit DOS program. We hope to expand it, port it to DOS32 and Linux, then who knows? Free free to download, play with it, and let me know if you want to be involved! saintport at users.sourceforge.net. http://guitarbar.sourceforge.net

• guitarbar_dos16_tc_1 guitarbar_dos16_tc_1 file released: guitarbar_dos16_tc_1.zip

  This release of guitarbar code is the first release that compiles on a free compiler, namely the Borland Antique Software: Turbo C version 2.01 release. link... http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,20841,00.html These Power C functions had to be changed for Turbo C: For getkey(), used getch() For clrscrn2(colorcode), used textattr(colorcode); followed by clrscr() For cursoff(), used gotoxy(80,25) - doesn't actually hide the cursor though. curson(), commented out. For setvmode(videomode), used textmode(videomode) For sound(freq, duration in seconds), used sound(freq) plus delay(duration in milliseconds) The difference in the sound function seems to enhance the tune-up screen by eliminating the warbling caused by cycling the speaker on and off. The chords on the Play screen seem to play much faster, which may or may not be a good thing.
