#4840

In that case, I’ll get started on the file names. There are about 300 – 400 code files in the project so this will be a bit….painful without doing it via a script (don’t know enough about Bash scripting and some may need to remain the same) 😛

We do have GDB over here and there’s a MinGW version as well to let me debug Windows binaries but that will require compatibility with MinGW. As we know, the code still requires VS to build due to the code generation, which is rather annoying.

As far as IDEs go, there aren’t a lot of them that are based on GTK that I like (currently use Geany which is a lightweight and minimal hybrid of text-editor and IDE) but I’ll take another look at the package repository after the OS upgrade 🙂

Never really been a fan of Qt. Not sure if it’s changed but, in the past, it was bloated and had a variety of performance problems compared to GTK. One of these days, I should probably give KDE another try to see if things have improved since then

At some point, an IDE may become necessary to do some of the overhauling that will be a pain to do by hand, such as changing up symbol names, so I’ve been periodically looking for one. I try to stick with the official repositories to minimize the change that something will break
