Blarghpad returns
About five years ago, due to an assignment in an English composition class, I and some associates were faced with the dilemma of what word processor to use in order to complete our respective essays—the first in the semester, in case you’re wondering. The only thing installed on our workstations was StarOffice, which, at least at the time, was fairly horrible in our estimation. At any rate, Joe was threatening to use notepad to compose his paper; so I quickly threw together something slightly better. This was how Blarghpad came to be.
In the time since then, it slowly became something more and more useful. I eventually even put it on Sourceforge, but it was too much of a pain to maintain it there, so the project fell into disrepair. Somebody even defaced the project’s webpage for some unexplained reason.
I discovered this week that I still had some BLT files in my archives; then, Robert asked if I had made a Mac OS version of Blarghpad. So I decided to resurrect the project. Right now, for windows, there’s still just the latest version from a few years ago, and it’ll remain that way for the time being, since I’ll just be working on the Mac version. Eventually I may update the windows version too. Anyway, the project will be here now. Following tradition, the source is available, and that’s all that’s available for Mac for the moment, since the program doesn’t do many useful things yet.
