• System Overview

Before we can do anything, we want to set up our compiler for comfortable use. Which way you want to use it, is your own choice.

• Setting up UltraEdit as gccVB frontend
• Setting up Eclipse as gccVB frontend
• Setting up Programmers Notepad as gccVB frontend

After everything is set up, we can start programming. Here's some well-documented sample code for beginners to start learning. Advanced users can skip this part.

• How to compile gccVB

Does it need to be added to the VB? Should it be removed? What about replacing it with a faster, smaller, or just plain better version? This is the place for all those crazy things that simply must be done to, with, or for the VB… just because we can!

  Homepage of the Reality Boy Emulator as well as the very useful "VB Programmer's Manual".
• Project: VB
  Some hacking tutorials, sample codes and tech info!
• Virtual-E Homepage
  Homepage of the Virtual-E Emulator and the Virtual Environment IDE. It also contains some programming tutorials. They're all focused on Assembly, though.
