As I said, I have no intention in learning a language as bad as C. I’d rather rewrite the whole thing in a modern language. And I’d like even more to have someone else do it, while I do some other contribution in return. How about that? :)

So you’re essentially suggesting that it’s just extremely bloated? ^^
But hey, there doesn’t have to be a “or”. Usually the latter comes from the former. ;)

No, (Windows * still sucked). I was saying:

But I already see where this is going: Straw man arguments: First you
deliberately misinterpret my statements, and then you call me an idiot
because of them. Sorry mate, that won’t work. ^^

Maybe the Navid in your delusional parallel world where I didn’t say I despised C did.
Why don’t you check?

Well, if it doesn’t take 50 lines, something is deeply wrong with the
code. Then again it’s C and it’s 2.532 million lines of it, so that
kinda answers that. ^^

PROTIP: Quick sort in Haskell:

  qsort (x:xs) = qsort [ i | i <- xs, i < x ] ++ [x] ++ qsort [ i | i <- xs, i >= x ]
  qsort [] = []


50 lines? Hell yeah! ^^

------------------------------------------------------------

I have no interest in the typical Internet dicks calling everyone who isn’t fitting their mind a “troll”. So you can fail with your archaic C, bloat, weird priorities and distorted perception until the end of time.
Actually it’s a good thing, because the more you’re ignorant of the unfolding reality, the more those who don’t gain an edge over you. So, hey… in a way you’re still helping me. Thanks!
And good bye. ^^
