I miss a programming subforum

[jfmateos]

Just now I am learning to program the Vectrex and I think that this forum shoul include a programmíng sub-forum to group all our resources and questions.

[VectorX]

Lets see if (m)any others chime in, and if there seems to be enough interest in it, I can add it.

[Rapetou33]

I am interested too.

It could be a useful place to group old discussions about programming to ease searching and for new discussions.

I'm intending to kick start my efforts to write a game and would appreciate a specific sub forum.

[VectorX]

Probably one or two others (such as vectrexmad) would also take it, so I'd say we have enough then

Just let me know what y'all want it named and I'll have it in by tomorrow.

Thanks vectorx... The name could be "VECTREX programming"

Good idea.

[VectorX]

In the process of building it now.

I'm going to lie down for a quick nap, then see if any other old threads should be moved there.

Or "Vecoders."

I'd participate in the one thread for abject beginners - you know, those of us whose heads were spinning after Chris Tumbler's 1998 beginners tutorial.

I have hope that with 1.) a good concept, and 2.) lots of persistence, many of us beginners could get there and keep the homebrew scene the best of any retro console.

I wonder if an experienced programmer would be interested in jumpstarting a few of us newbies on the basics - perhaps via a live google hangout.  I'd be willing to pay a modest tuition fee for a few "classes."
