Just a small update :) I found a great GUI editor for Java - Jigloo. It's a plug-in for Eclipse and it's really simple to use. I spent the last few days testing it and I came up with a simple calculator, kinda like Windows' Calculator. I've uploaded it in the Software page and is available. Please report any bugs or errors that may occur so that I can fix it. Of course you'll need a Java platform to use it. I think I posted a link to a platform here somewhere. Anyway, I don't have much time to work on the RPG now, classes and stuff, but hopefully soon I'll be able to do some work for it soon...

Right, so I made a simple GUI program for the 'Tower of Hanoi' game. We were talking about recursion in lectures, so I thought "Why not code this baby up" :) So far it works fine ( not sure about the timer though ). You can download it from the Games page and I'll include the code in a few days, because I want to edit it a little, 'cause it's a mess right now :) Anyway still working on the map editor - there's a lot more work than I thought, but it's quite fun :) I'll post updates soon... njoy. Oh I almost forgot - I moved some of my progs. from Games to Software. I figured since I have a Software page, I might as well use it for something so I tried to separate the apps. :)

Ok, I'm almost done with the map editor for the RPG and soon I'll be working on the towns and the map details. I'll upload some pictures of the editor, so that you can see what it looks like ( I will not release it, it's just there to help, however I'm pretty happy with it ). Anyway, I've added another side-bar to display my current project and the progress that I've made so far. Any suggestions for the rpg are welcome, just drop me an e-mail :)

My name is Georgi Christov and I'm a second year student in the University of Glasgow, Computing Science. I love programming ( obviously ) and software design. At first I thought that I'll use the site to mainly test my Java programs and stuff but I really started to enjoy it, so I'm trying to add new things and extend it as much as I can.
There are a couple of things that you might find useful here - the Games page contains all the games that I've made. They come in a .rar file and contain all you need to use them. The Source code page contains the source code for my programs ( not all of them, since some are more complicated and messy ). The Software page is a new one; it has all my software programs - some useful, others - not that useful. Finally, the Tutorials page has a bunch of tutorials I made for some of the main features of the Python programming language (I'm still working on the Java tutorials and by "working" I mean trying to find some time to write them). Anyway, you may find other interesting things as well, just have a look around.
Lastly, a small update - I've added a new sidebar that contains some info for my most recent projects and status for the ones that I'm currently working on.
JAVA RULES THE WEB!!!
P.S. You'll need a Java platform in order to be able to see my Java programs in the site. A platform can be downloaded from this site, but I am sure there are better version, besides the Java platform updates itself so don't worry too much about it. Just make sure that you have one installed on your PC.
...Some programming inspiration...
"A good programmer is someone who looks both ways before crossing a one-way street." - Doug Linder.
"A most important, but also most elusive, aspect of any tool is its influence on the habits of those who train themselves in its use. If the tool is a programming language this influence is, whether we like it or not, an influence on our thinking habits." - Edsger Dijkstra.
"Most debugging problems are fixed easily, but identifying the location of the problem is hard."
More of that stuff can be found on this page.
