  • There is no single person responsible for Cyrillic script. It is mostly believed to be created by mixing and changing Greek and Glagolic scripts by the scholars of Preslav Literary School, which was indeed in Bulgaria. After a while, Peter the Great changed it a lot. And then Stalin stomped out almost all the deviations in the usage of the script.

    The last part is mostly why it is considered Russian. A lot of languages suffered because of Moscow just forcing them to use the version of Cyrillic that Russians were using.







  • I assume it creates some sort of save file in the current working directory?

    You may try changing the working directory via batch script, if you’re on Windows.

    Make a text file, name it something like launch.bat (the actual name may be whatever you want, just make sure you leave the extention .bat) Paste this there:

    @echo off
    cd /d "%~dp0"
    start "" "game.exe"
    

    Be sure to replace game.exe with your game’s .exe filename. Don’t delete any double quotes, they are important.

    Put this text file near .exe file of your game, and make a shortcut of it to your desktop. You may rename a shortcut and choose an icon from your game’s .exe file to make it pretty.

    After that just launch the shortcut as you normally would. If I’m correct, the game should create it’s .bin file in the script directory and not in your desktop.



  • Probably not, if we’re speaking about the next adapter in the line. They both use 4 pins, and there are no active conversion in the adapter itself, it just connects the pins like this:

    USB ↔ PS/2
    +5V ↔ +5V
    D-  ↔ D
    D+  ↔ CLK
    GND ↔ GND
    

    So, as long as next adapter is not doing something funny with PS/2 signals, it should be ok for bare USB 2.0 connection.





  • Might depend on where you were learning.

    On paper, when I was learning Descartes’ coordibate system, we used Y as up and X as left-right. And when it was time to plot in 3D, we used Z to “extend” the plane into yourself and away from yourself.

    You just hold your sheet of paper perpendicular to the ground (or just use a whiteboard) and it all makes sense.
