I finally updated the repo https://github.com/EricLendvai/Harbour_Samples

to be compatible with Linux as well.

This repo can be used as a starting point for console apps.

If anyone is open to updating the samples build process to also work under mac OS I would appreciate a pull request.

Thanks, Eric

Hi,

I had a look, but I can't tried it, as I haven't installed VSCODE, but I'm supprimed that under Linux, the build samples have .exe extension, it's not an usual thing ...

Hello Alain,

You are correct under Linux we don't need the extension. I just decided to keep it to make it easier to remind me it is an executable I created in Harbour.

In regards to VSCode, let me know if you would like to meet (zoom or Skype) and I can show it to you.

Some of my favority VSCode extensions:
- Harbour and xHarbour by "Antonino Perricone"
- "Bookmarks" by "Alessandro Fragnani"
- "Code Spell Checker" by "Street Side Software"
- "Cursor Align" by "Mike Moore"
- "Local History" by "xyz"
- "Tasks" by "actboy 168"
- "Kai Light" by "Alek Angelov"
- "vscode-icons" by "VSCode Icons Team"
- "filesize" by "Matheus Kautzmann"
- "UUID Generator" by "netcorext"

And some VSCode settings:

In settings.json I set the following:

"editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": true,
"editor.guides.bracketPairs":true,

Since I use the "Local History" by "xyz" extension I also set:
"files.autoSave": "onFocusChange"

Hum ...

In regards to VSCode, let me know if you would like to meet (zoom or Skype) and I can show it to you.

I have tried VSCODE there is a long time, and I don't really like it.

I have made a linux toolkit for Harbour and hwgui applications, and for me, it suits my needs.
