Bo: I reacted to seeing that in the same way. I'm also running XP on 2 computers. I run many other OSes, including Win7, in a VM on one of them.

Yep, I still keep the Win98 install files on a thumb drive 'just in case' - and every piece of software I need still runs on it :)
Arnold, as soon as I get time, I'll put up a much more terse written tutorial with some additional example apps.  I just felt like sharing this thing because it's been useful.  With about an hour of play time, posting a video was just simpler to complete.

Nick, I am just a bit  envious, wanting to make the small video of compiling my Xiangqi game, and finding out I have no time and place to make it., and here you come and do a video of over an hour :-)

Arnold, I use Screen O Matic, it only allows    5 minutes (free verison) but I sort of like being forced to sum up talks in under 5 minutes.  
What I often do is write a simple script of bullet points.  Wear a headset, and do a dry run.  It forces me to hear and see the timing.
Then I reset, prepare windows and data so I can jump right to things, and just keep doing it over and over until I make no mistakes.  I usually can present something that is 3 minutes long in about 5-7 takes.
So, one hour all said.

I made a "selfie helmet" so I can record videos hands free. But nobody wants to be seen wearing it.

That video was made with Debut video capture software:  http://www.nchsoftware.com/capture/   If you try it, encode to mp4 and turn up the video bit rate.  Even with a 2048 bit rate, that whole video was 120megs.

szeng: Since they are symmetric, do the curley braces need to be escaped like that?
Reichart
Bo, a friend of mine that does a Podcast  does teh same thing, so that the Mic is always directly in front of him.
Yes, he looks like an Angler Fish.

Arnold, cool, I will attempt to do this, but from a PC.
Arnold
I wrote the entire script, prepared how to find the sources. First a short run to remember how to it worked, (turns out Quicktime is the easiest for me) where I filmed myself instead of the screen. Next during the second short run I faced an internet connection problem that I solved by using Safari and let that connect. Then I cleared up the cache and did the whole video in one take. Showing the red-lang.org site and the github compilation info during compiling was a lucky shot.
Arnold
And after the second run I also did a soundcheck. Would be a nasty surprise if there was nothing to hear.
Arnold
The real thing that puzzles me is that I could make such a program using a PL that is in (pre-)alpha stage. I could not have done it using a well known language that is production ready for decades.

szeng
@WiseGeni Probably not. I didn't know that you don't have to escape brackets if they are symmetric. But I would probably just do it in case I might add some asymmetric brackets later
WiseGenius
You could always just escape those ones. :P Exciting progress you guys are making!
szeng
Uh, that's a neat trick. Thanks!

Arnold: Nice video! You did a nice job of laying out how to do the whole process from start to finish!

Arnold
Thank you very much Bo!

Shixin... integrating libtcc within R3 is AMAZING work, thanks for that   :-)
I am very near a project reset which will use R3 within a C/C++ project... being able to compile on the fly, means I can JIT compile my VM , built from within an R3 parse.... amazing
now all I need is to build a NATIVE dialect in R3 parse, and JIT compile it under the hood.
