I would like to put it this way: Programming has been done in the moment the code is downloaded into the target. Then the target is programmed. Not before. The target is the controller, not the IDE.
Quoting:
When a person says they want to program their Arduino. we don't correct them and say, no.
That's fully in line with my opinion.
Quoting....
We know what they mean.
Sometimes guesses about the OPs intention goes wrong and OP feels like considered an idiot and gets very insulted. That was my guideline in this topic. Let's find out what the guy really wants. Maybe his idea is unusual, different from the usual questions. Therefore my "slow" approach.
One purpose of forum is to help new members make sketches for the controllers and have fun. An other, as I see it, good skill, is to use a good language, proper terminology and be understood every ware. Home made terms, language leads to misunderstandings.
