apam, I'm not the coding police - at all. I don't have ANY skills so your source, to me, would look like active-God status anyway... but I do learn differently than most.. when I take online courses in programming, I can never 'get' what they're trying to explain to me. 

But... give me a software that I grasp... oh, I dunno- like a bbs software maybe?! (lol) and then let me see side by side what the code does; and I 'get' things easier. I understand that this is no way to learn everything needed to even begin coding in C++ - but open projects that I'm interested in and the ability to see the source right there on my computer screen; even if its in YOUR workflow, that might not be where I'd end up.... is awesome.

I installed all the prerequisites, VisCode does a great job at making sure you have everything 'this project' needs. Anyway; thanks again...

I'm going to get Talismas 0.3 running TODAY.
