How I started programming, it was quite a ride

Forums and places like Reddit are something I enjoy using. While they are a social media platforms, but they are different. They have real, useful content and often very interesting discussions too.

I'm the author of Memo.

First of all it's nice to see Memo here in Hacker News. Memo started simply because I wanted note taking program for the command line. I never thought that it will become fairly popular as it is now.

Your bash completion is actually a great idea. I will start implementing it in the near future. It shouldn't be too hard to do and it will Memo much more nice to use. Thanks!

Oh... Wrong. Not everything needs to be cross platform. I wanted to make a native Windows program using C++ and WTL/Winapi. It has nothing to do with skills in programming. The only reason I did not make a Linux version of Butterfly is because I didn't want to. I've done portable programs for years. I use Linux every single day on my laptop. I don't even know why I'm trying to explain. Butterly is open source, GPL and can be used for free of charge. It's available for platforms I want it to be available. Feel free to create versions for other platforms or use some other music player that works on the operating system you want.
