A post of some older Delphi stuff I did in the past just in case need it again.
David Heffernan found the documentation for this: [WayBack] Structured Types (Delphi): Dynamic Arrays – RAD Studio
Since I needed a dynamic array structure supporting a non-zero lower bound, I was glad he also provided an answer with a data structure that does provide a non-zero lower bound.
For my own reference I’ve put his answers and questions below (as it’s way easier to search my blog than the complete internet) and my own implementation:

Via [WayBack] Scott Hanselman @shanselman: Excellent blog post from Jessica on how to setup the best Linux on Windows environment! @jldeen:
[WayBack] Badass Terminal: FCU WSL Edition (oh-my-zsh, powerlevel9k, tmux, and more!)
It’s that time again! The time to write another epic blog post, this time for WSL, also known as Windows Subsystem for Linux.
It requires Windows 10 Version 1709 (Fall_Creators_Update) which has build number 10.0.16299.

An era ends: [Archive.is] CompuServe’s forums, which still exist, are finally shutting down
Before there was a World Wide Web, a sizable chunk of all meaningful conversation between computer users happened in the forums at CompuServe, which was the dominant online service until AOL came along. There was a CompuServe forum for everything from PC hardware to comic books, the signal-to-noise ratio was generally high, and … they if you … will be removed from what remains of CompuServe on December 15.
I remember spending a truckload of money on 100013,1443. Heck: it was the reason for getting a credit card in the first place!

The first trick works for WinBox 3.7 on Mac [download], the second doesn’t.

I have the Atom editor and was wondering how you can open a file or folder from the terminal in Atom. I am using a Mac. I am looking for a way to do this: atom . (opens folder) atom file.js (
The answer to it isn’t any good any more (since then, Atom has evolved), but this comment works splendid:
I solved the issue by choosing “Install Shell Commands” under the “Atom” menu.
It will add a script in /usr/local/bin/atom that starts Atom with the parameters you entered.

For my link archive:
Some quotes
You cannot undo things that are inherited. What you can do is not make that property published but overwrite the streaming mechanism of your component for instance by using http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/en/System.Classes.TPersistent.DefineProperties
You could just make your property public instead of published:
Not visible in OI but accessible via source code.
Use the TCustomXYZ pattern (with unpublished properties) to allow descendants to publish them selectively.
Take a look at selection editor (ISelectionpropertyFilter). For example see how TMobileFormFilter works at FmxReg.pas in Source\Property Editors
