    Qt/Embedded Whitepaper Trolltech www.trolltech.com Abstract This whitepaper describes the Qt/Embedded C++ toolkit for GUI and application development on embedded devices. It runs on any device supported by Linux and a C++ compiler. Qt/Embedded provides the entire standard Qt API and can compile out unused features to minimize its memory footprint. Qt/Embedded provides its own windowing system which is far more compact than Xlib and the X Window System that it replaces. Qt/Embedded applications can be developed on familiar desktop systems, e.g. Windows and Unix, and with standard tools. It is provided with all the Qt tools including Qt Designer for visual form design, and with tools specifically tailored to the embedded environment.

  • Learning to Code
    PART ILEARNING TO CODE How Important is Programming? “To understand computers is to know about programming. The world is divided… into people who have written a program and people who have not.” Ted Nelson, Computer Lib/Dream Machines (1974) How important is it for you to learn to program a computer? Since the introduction of the first digital electronic computers in the 1940s, people have answered this question in surprisingly different ways. During the first wave of commercial computing—in the 1950s and 1960s, when 1large and expensive mainframe computers filled entire rooms—the standard advice was that only a limited number of specialists would be needed to program com- puters using simple input devices like switches, punched cards, and paper tape. Even during the so-called “golden age” of corporate computing in America—the mid- to late 1960s—it was still unclear how many programming technicians would be needed to support the rapid computerization of the nation’s business, military, and commercial operations. For a while, some experts thought that well-designed computer systems might eventually program themselves, requiring only a handful of attentive managers to keep an eye on the machines. By the late 1970s and early 1980s, however, the rapid emergence of personal computers (PCs), and continuing shortages of computer professionals, shifted popular thinking on the issue. When consumers began to adopt low-priced PCs like the Apple II (1977), the IBM PC (1981), and the Commodore 64 (1982) by the millions, it seemed obvious that ground-breaking changes were afoot. The “PC Revolution” opened up new frontiers, employed tens of thousands of people, and (according to some enthusiasts) demanded new approaches to computer literacy.

  • Appleshare 3-0 Admin
    APPLESHARE SERVER 3.0 ADMINISTRATOR'S QUICKSTART Before You Start This QuickStart is designed to help you get AppleShare Server 3.0 file and print servers ready and running in the shortest possible time. The QuickStart is divided into three sections: - Getting Started - Setting Up File Service - Setting Up Print Service You may not need to read all three sections -- only those that apply to your specific needs. For instance, if you know you will be setting up only a print server, you can skip to the section "Setting Up Print Service" after reading "Getting Started." Getting help This QuickStart assumes you're already familiar with basic Macintosh concepts and tech-niques. However, if you need additional information about AppleShare Server 3.0, you have two other sources of information: Balloon Help, which is built into the AppleShare Server 3.0 software, and the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide. Using Balloon Help If you don't understand the instructions in this guide -- or if you see a window, button, menu, or command you want to know more about -- use Balloon Help: 1. Choose Show Balloons from the Help menu. 2. Position the pointer over the item you want to know more about. A balloon appears with an explanation of that item. You can turn off Balloon Help at any time by choosing Hide Balloons from the Help menu. Using the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide If you still need more information after consulting Balloon Help, see the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide. It's easy to locate the information you need: Each section of this QuickStart corresponds to a section of the AppleShare Server 3.0 Administrator's Guide, where all procedures are explained in detail.

  • Our Little Help Machines and Their Invisibilities
    David K. Farkas, “Our Little Help Machines and Their Invisibilities,” Commentary on Johndan Johnson-Eilola’s “Little Machines: Understanding Users Understanding Interfaces,” ACM Journal of Computer Documentation, 25 (4), 2001, pp. 141-44. Johnson-Eilola’s “Little Machines” appears after the commentary. Our Little Help Machines and Their Invisibilities Johndan Johnson-Eilola’s “Little Machines” is wide-ranging and provocative. It serves the field of user assistance by drawing us well beyond our usual concerns about usability and efficient production. The starting point of the essay is the general recognition that documents, software products, and all other cultural artifacts necessarily reflect the outlook and agenda of those who create and disseminate these artifacts. Certain things are left in; certain things taken out; certain things are made more and less prominent. The agenda may well be benign, but it may not be. These artifacts, furthermore, very often present themselves to us in a neutral, self-effacing manner. The essay’s central argument is that help systems and software user interfaces, through their neutral personas and the ease with which they are used, have now achieved the condition of invisibility. This invisibility is pernicious: It subtly restricts thought and leads people to limit their horizons of potential action. As I read “Little Machines,” invisibility has four aspects. I offer commentary on each and on the calls for change (“rearticulations”) that make up the second half of the essay. Johnson-Eilola writes in a spirit of speculation and intellectual adventure, and his complex argument is composed of numerous strands. My commentary, therefore, does not closely map the structure of the essay.
