BTW, It's worth mentioning that Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition is available as a free download: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard" <legalize@xmission.com> To: "Fractint developer's list" <fractdev@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2006 7:58 PM Subject: Re: [Fractdev] scrolling screen

PS: if anyone wants an academic edition of VS.NET 2003 I have a couple left. I will probably be getting copies of VS.NET 2005 academic edition soon from MS.
Does it include C++?
VS.NET 2003 academic edition includes C++, C#, J# and VB.NET. The "express editions" have all the languages stripped out except the one you're interested in, so C++ Expess Edition will have only C++ and not the other languages. VS.NET 2003 also has support for building a simple MSI based installer for your output. The only difference between the academic edition and the professional edition is that the license prohibits you from redistributing the redistributables (i.e. you can provide a link to where users can download the DirectX runtime from the MS site required for your app, but you can't supply the DirectX runtime directly to them) and the help files (MSDN Library) isn't included, but you can access all the help online or download the Platform SDK help locally to your machine.
PPS: maybe fractint developers should consider coming to Pilgrimage for a face-to-face coding frenzy? ;-) That would be fun and you'd get a big chunk of my time that way.
The job front is a bit uncertain at this point. [...]
I know you guys have variability that may make this impossible/improbable but I thought I'd toss it out there. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline"-- code samples, sample chapter, FAQ: <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/> Pilgrimage: Utah's annual demoparty <http://pilgrimage.scene.org>
