Ok maybe my google isn't working but I installed simpleide on fedora and it will not run and I have every thing installed in opt but it's looking for the lib files in the wrong place.
Thanks for any ideas

    Can you describe the steps you used?
    Where did you get the package?
    Is your Fedora 32 bit or 64 bit?
    Did you follow the steps in INSTALL.txt?

    Well I figured it out I added the opt/simpleIDE-0-9-45/bin to my PATH
    I then got a libpng12 missing installed that and it run it all joy now.

    libpng12 ? Will look into that thanks.

    There should be a program installed in /usr/bin/simpleide ... that should handle all the path information for you.

    That is, at your command prompt just enter simpleide from any directory and not ./simpleide.

    I'm completly ignorant about this. I havent learned much Spin but have a couple of small boards such as the gadget Gangster waiting to be put to use. I have also been learning C from a couple of books. Its the language Ive heard talked about everywhere all my life but thought it was for computer scientists or something :)

    Can I use SimpleIDE to program the prop and say well clear of spin if i chose. How about using the Spin OBEX. The SimpleIDE would make that just as easy to use ?

    C is for computer scientists and everyone else who cares to learn it. Arduino users all program in C for example.

    SimpleIDE today can load and run PASM code directly from spin files - that's all. In the future it will likely use spinwrap to run SPIN directly.

    I have not been told to integrate spinwrap yet, but I know some Parallax people are excited about that prospect.

    Thankyou jazzed, I told my younger brother about the Arduino early on. He works as a programmer at the moment for aussie tax office. I said its a micocontroller for everyone artists, dancers etc as the product blurb stated. His response was , 'I program like a dancer, I might try it ' well it was pretty funny at the time. I bought him one as a gift, he never used it but likes the raspberry pi :)
