This downloads standalone 64-bit MSVC compiler, linker & other tools, also headers/libraries from Windows SDK into portable folder, without installing Visual Studio. Has bare minimum components - no UWP/Store/WindowsRT stuff, just files & tools for 64-bit native desktop app development.

Run python.exe portable-msvc.py and it will download output into msvc folder. By default it will download latest available MSVC & Windows SDK - currently v14.32.17.2 and v10.0.22621.0.

You can list available versions with python.exe portable-msvc.py --show-versions and then pass versions you want with --msvc-version and --sdk-version arguments.

To use cl.exe/link.exe from output folder, first run setup.bat - after that PATH/INCLUDE/LIB env variables will be setup to use all the tools as usual. You can also use clang-cl.exe with these includes & libraries.

To use clang-cl.exe without running setup.bat, pass extra /winsysroot msvc argument (msvc is folder name where output is stored).

Haskell symbols

When starting out with Haskell, I found it difficult to read a lot of the symbols. I made this document explaining the names of some symbols and how I read them.

Getting Started with Clojure on Windows

Clojure is an amazingly powerful language. Using it (and watching Rich Hickey videos) has changed the way I think about programming, and the way I code in general. Once I learned the basics of the language, which was a relatively quick process, I fell in love and couldn't look back. I hope this post can help others who are new to Clojure get up and running quickly and painlessly.

This post is opinionated in the sense that I'll suggest certain tools to help those who are new to this scene get on their feet. The things you'll need are:

• Leiningen (pronounced LINE-ing-en) - This is like a package manager, build tool, task manager, and more in one tool. Think npm or nuget, but with more capabilities. There is at least one other build tool for Clojure (boot), but Leiningen is the most widely used.
• JDK - Clojure runs on Java. Throw out any qualms you may have about Java, we aren't coding in Java (though we can through Clojure, and sometimes tha

Effective Modern CMake

Getting Started

For a brief user-level introduction to CMake, watch C++ Weekly, Episode 78, Intro to CMake by Jason Turner. LLVM’s CMake Primer provides a good high-level introduction to the CMake syntax. Go read it now.

After that, watch Mathieu Ropert’s CppCon 2017 talk Using Modern CMake Patterns to Enforce a Good Modular Design (slides). It provides a thorough explanation of what modern CMake is and why it is so much better than “old school” CMake. The modular design ideas in this talk are based on the book [Large-Scale C++ Software Design](https://www.amazon.de/Large-Scale-Soft

In patch 8.0.1206, Vim has added 2 new events: CmdlineEnter and CmdlineLeave. They are fired every time you enter or leave a command line.

Syntax

There are 7 types of command lines, including one for normal Ex commands, debug mode commands, search commands (with a distinction between forward and backward), expressions, and inputs (more info at :h cmdwin-char). Each of them is associated with a symbol among this set : > / ? = @ -.

You can limit the effect of an autocmd listening to CmdlineEnter / CmdlineLeave to one or several types of command lines by:
