There are now many mirror solutions today. I don't use them but maybe you only need this search to try a few.

Over the years we reduced power by moving from desktops to laptops. Such a transition was planned and worked well. We didn't have to find a solution as laptops came down in price along with power requirements.

Facilities did adopt more efficient lighting early on. Now almost all LED with big savings. I worry that the folk that sell management solutions or software would be disappointed.

I think it can import since it got to line 47. If it couldn't import it would have failed at line 1 or prior. Look again at line 47.

There is no always works system wide setting. You tackle this app by app. Sorry to be brief about it but many have asked such for decades but that answer hasn't really changed. You work it with each app. This means the easy fix is to let C be big enough for apps and more.

For the effort required, most programmers settle for an app. Apps tend to be your gateway to bigger things like small OSes.

If you peek under the Android covers you find many languages so the answer is you'll get into assembler, C, C++, Java, XML and so much more. We won't be seeing you again for about a decade as you churn out 16 million lines of code for your own OS.

Did you open up print.py and see if it has some mix of tabs and spaces for indenting?

That told me a little more about what you were up against. While you want to kickstarter this, I don't know enough to give you another direction to try. For example the easiest make a big button to press system is probably Visual Basic.net Express. It's free and you can open a window, put up a button and respond to the button in minutes of your time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_%28programming_language%29 gives us the hint that Python is a programming language first and the graphics comes with added Modules. Can get deep fast for beginning programmers.

Well, no. My apps on on .NET 3.5 for long reasons. They were fielded back in 2009 and I leave them be for reasons.

One of the test tools I used along the way was a serial sniffer. This can be a hardware box ($$$$) or cheap cables wired up to listen on TX or RX on a second PC. That way we see what's on the wire.

I have fielded serial port comms for well, since DOS days. The code above is pretty rudimentary but what is this about lock up? If you exit your app and open a terminal, is it still locked up?

Also, if you are in the USA or Can, drop me a direct line about the app you need.

I really don't want to rain on your idea but no one I know uses Windows 8 to 10 in Metro mode. And with Microsoft pulling out of the mobile market your Metro interface is not getting the user base apps need to thrive.

Even so, if all you want is your app to have a big square button to smash, well you don't need Metro.

Sorry for the delay. But let's tackle a few items.

To do this without .NET you'll have to use a language other than VB.net, C# and so on. But I don't see any reason to avoid .NET here.

-> Now to work. There are so many code examples on the web for serial IO in VB.net that I suggest you try a terminal program from source to see how that works.

What I think I see is an old school polling the serial port method. You may have to up your game here to have a routine that fires on serial reception and be careful not to send data and have no delay for the response.

Example that I find doesn't work in psuedo code.
1. Open port.
2. Send string.
3. Wait for answer.

What's wrong with that? Not much. But we are dealing with the real world and I've been burned by drivers and devices that take one hundred milliseconds for the port to get ready. I can't write what your choice would be here but for many years I'll open the port early then the user can click on this or that button. The human's delay has always been long enough to avoid that old issue.

BTW, my other nice trick is to scan the ports for a connection so the user never has to tell me which COM port to use. I find that end users today are very unaware of old school …

For Opera you would ask in the Opera forums. It sounds to me that you are accepting defaults. READ http://forums.opera.com/discussion/1833452/e-mail-folders-and-program-software-in-the-same-main-folder-on-drive-d-how-can-this-be-done/p1 to see many install options and how one controls Opera install target drives and folders.

As to your question, it's overly broad. That is, we solve this app by app.

I'd avoid Metro as the UI due to complexity. I read a little from https://www.google.com/#q=python+metro+ui and well, sounds too deep for a first outing.

https://www.google.com/#q=python+click+hello+world is more common a starting point.

Just in case you are stuck. A few things.

1. I call such work "parsing." If I have a string that I need to parse into substrings, I parse that. Unzipping to most folk is something else altogether.

2. If you are unsure of what's going on, and you don't have an IDE with debugging, old fashioned print statements and pauses do wonders.

3. When I need to try something new in php, I use phpfiddle (see the web.) Your choice on that.

Second thought. A new student didn't include stdlib so no itoa(). Read http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdlib/itoa/

Idea. The source for itoa is on the web so why not make a function from the source?

Why not look into open source viewers? Example search here.

Since there are already OSes out there I tend to write apps or solutions that I learn from or generate income.

I think you need to read a prior comment again at https://www.daniweb.com/programming/software-development/threads/502676/windows-photo-gallery-like-program#post2197359

This sounds as if the factory restore system is gone. I'm running into laptops that came with 8, someone installed 7 and left the now unsuspecting laptop owner with a time bomb.

To recover you need recovery media you created when you got the laptop. If not, order them.

Sorry but if you post incorrect details, folk may give incorrect answers. Next time copy and paste to avoid this issue. I offered what I saw, but it appears that you were in a hurry.

@Grib. Are you sure about that? phpfiddle said:

FOUND 3 ERROR(S) AFFECTING 2 LINE(S)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 2 | ERROR | Missing file doc comment

Try this.

<?php
$string = 'Hello<br>';
print($string);
$string = 'Bye<br>';
print($string);
?>

You can test it at http://phpfiddle.org/

Frankly this should be done later on in the project. Let's say you were to create a thing. The thing has yet to be created and you wanted to name it before it took form. You now see why you pick a title then change it later. I've seen many feel blocked at this step. Fix? Pick anything then change it as the project evolves or winds down.

Nod to hericles here. Example code at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms228595.aspx

It appears others have done this. More at link.

While I have my suspicions I don't know your PC. Try finding what locked the file with "handle." See link.

Let's check a basic thing. You claim the file name is "wall" but later on write "WALL". In almost every OS today those are not the same file.

Small world. I can't reveal much but we used Tesseract and filtered the output in our code. We never thought to ask Tesseract to do such a filter.

My bet is your phone is using its WiFi hotspot rather than a tether. As such the ports are more than one. Just like when you use a WiFi router or hotspot you get to use 65,535 ports. I know some call this tethering but as an old router coder, I would not call it that.

Sorry for the delay. The jsfiddle was to see if that worked in Safari. Also I see now you need someone to write or fix your code.

You are dealing with less than a page of javascript and what I see missing is you coding up the changes.

My mistake too. I think you wanted to fire the updatedb on each click. Not just on change. Here's the shorter jsfiddle.

If code porting time is a factor I'd look again at MySQL. A student here wrote an unattended install routine into their C# app so if MySQL was not found it would fetch, install and setup the MySQL system for their app. I'm not sure if that's a good idea but it shows it is possible to make a click to run app, even if we use MySQL.

Also, try 7zip. I used that last month on some rar thing.

Does this jsfiddle work in Safari? It's a variation on a prior discussion.

@Dennis_8 Chrome was very recently updated but here's the passage that I think needs another reading from that link.

"Doesn't fire an input event when (un)checking a checkbox or radio button"

Here's another reading on it: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149398
And another at https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/601

I don't have a setup to test your code at the moment but I've found the 'caniuse' site to help me when things I thought should work, don't.

I think you need to be clearer about your needs here. Encrypting what your app needs to remember is well done and a bottomless pit.
https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/sample-code-data-encryption-application and dozens more examples are on the web if I needed to encrypt some items for use later in my app.

Maybe your real question was something else.

Double check this for me. Read http://caniuse.com/#feat=input-event

Is it broke in Chrome too?

I think you didn't do anything wrong. However if I were to consider a lite SQL I'd consider OTM (other than Microsoft) SQL solutions like MySQL (still looking over MariaDB) and of course SQLITE. https://www.sqlite.org/download.html shows the binaries to be in the under 10 megabyte size.

My oldest MySQL system is now over 10 years old and still running.

Found a better prior discussion on engine sound generation. http://gamedev.stackexchange.com/a/3344

Did you try Zmodem? https://www.google.com/#q=raspberry+pi+zmodem seems to say it's been done.

I have to ask. What is "hosting a network"? I've heard of hosting websites and such, but hosting a network needs to be expanded on.

Given the time since you asked this at http://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/110767/ms-access-2007-2010-compact-repair-not-working and other sites, it may be time to think over if Access is the right database for you.

What did that person say? "Insanity is repeating the same mistakes, expecting different results."

This sounds like you need to research web game sound engines. Try these. https://www.google.com/#q=web+game+sound+engine

Still sounds like one line using grep. Not to pry, but you do use grep?

Why code this when grep could do that in one line?

I think we need to take a step back here. The IP address does not contain the MAC address. However there was a need to increase the MAC address pool for IPv6. "Guidelines for 48-Bit Global Identifier (EUI-48)" (PDF). IEEE Standards Association. IEEE. Retrieved 16 April 2015 gives a great overview of this.

So let's recap.

ARP for IPv4 to get the MAC.
NDP for IPv6 to get the new EUI.

How about the old numlock.exe to do that method? Just pop it into your startup and num it is.

numlock.exe is on the web too.

What about this 20 line solution? https://www.pubnub.com/blog/2015-08-25-webrtc-video-chat-app-in-20-lines-of-javascript/

Does not look to be a two way street. That is, it's a method we can use to automatically configure IPv6 host addresses. An IPv6 device will use the MAC address of its interface to generate a unique 64-bit interface ID. However, this doesn't mean that a DHCP assigned address will contain that MAC address.

My last MIPS system was years ago. We wrote in C and used a C compiler. If you don't want to setup a C compiler you can compile online. Try http://ellcc.org/blog/?page_id=340 and set the output to MIPS.

@M

I was hoping to read more about your big project and what it does, goals and more. Are you cross posting?
https://www.google.com/search?q=parsing+any+java+file+in+any+package seems to say you are.
