I was beginning to come to the conclusion that the idea of a non-Linux person "dipping in" to learn just enough to do the basics for C++ on BBB is impossible.You have confirmed this - I appreciate your advice. There is great temptation to try and dip in - Derek Molloy's BBB/C++ video seems to offer nice simple steps to do the basics, but then you hit something that you need that he doesn't cover (CURL for example) and immediately you are in very scary territory. Back to Arduino, (or at best, bonescript), I fear. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
