WELCOME TO GAMBAS! GAMBAS is a free implementation of a graphical development environment based on a BASIC interpreter and a full development platform. It is very inspired by Visual Basic and Java. Go to http://gambas.sourceforge.net to get more information: how to compile and install it, where to find binary packages, how to report a bug... Go to http://gambaswiki.org for language documentation. The following pieces of code were borrowed and adapted: - The natural string comparison algorithme was adapted from the algorithm made by Martin Pol. See http://sourcefrog.net/projects/natsort/ for more details. - The hash table implementation was adapted from the glib one. - The HTML entities parsing in gb.gtk comes from KHTML sources. - The gb.net.smtp component is a debugged and reworked version of an unmaintained library made by Kevin Read <obsidian@berlios.de> in 2002. - The gb.image.effect sources are adapted from KDE 3 image effect routines. - The blur image algorithm was adapted from the StackBlur javascript routine from http://www.quasimondo.com/StackBlurForCanvas. - The gb.clipper library embeds the Clipper library. See http://www.angusj.com/delphi/clipper.php for mode details. If I forget some borrowed code in the list above, just tell me. Enjoy Gambas! -- Benoît
