sparrowhawk's Profile
A profile... why not.
Some things I enjoy doing: reading, mountain biking, hiking in the mountains, anything with computers, er, most things really. I love to ski, and just wish I could go on a slope longer than 180 metres.
Partly inspired by enjoying DinkC coding, I went to college to learn a bit of Software Development and am now working with some local developers, using VB.NET and C#.
I have many things I should be doing so writing a profile seemed a good way of putting them off.
I live in northwest England (south originally) and, um, that's about it.
I'm making a D-Mod and have some ambitious ideas for future ones but don't expect anything soon!

Hot on the heels of the last DFArc 3 update comes a new version of Beuc's FreeDink project.
This version is apparently not yet better than sliced bread, but it's getting close! Better than sliced buns, I guess.
There are some fixes and two new translations for the engine strings. Did you know, this is now translated into 22 different languages!
And speaking of foreign languages, here's the source code.
