Redundancy

Do we need a clone of the C Bare Bones? I can't find anything that this tutorial provides over that. - Combuster 09:40, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

I agree. If the user wants to create his own tutorial series, he can per-user articles (I don't know if they have any special name). --Love4boobies 12:08, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Moved to the author's userspace for now, so he can address the mentioned concerns. - Combuster 12:21, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

What it does and does not do...

What this "tutorial" does not do is:

  • explaining anything it does (effectively being Bare Bones stripped of all comments and explanations, while adding nothing);
  • actually seting up the stack before using call;
  • determining the necessary "pad" size dynamically.

What it does do is:

  • suggesting that build.sh is a viable way of automating your build;
  • using uppercase file naming, which is at the very least unconventional in SW development.

I do not see what it adds to the Wiki that wasn't already there. -- Solar 12:38, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
