Hi PharmCat,

❝ Hint: Using Juno IDE (Atom based) makes Julia much more appeasable.


See the subject line. Part of the procedure is “Download, install and open Atom.” I always try to keep the OS and virtual machines on one disk, software on another, and data on a third.
Bad luck with Atom. Ended up in c:\Users\{user}\AppData\Local\atom and glued an icon/link on my desktop. Now I have another 850 MiB (7,988 files in 3,982 folders) on my system disk. ?
Already Julia gave me the creeps. Though installed on my second disk (375 MiB, 1,143 files in 304 folders), I have additionally 221 MiB (24,769 files in 8,951 folders) in c:\Users\{user}\.julia …

Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge
in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people.
The specialist knows more and more about less and less
and finally knows everything about nothing.    Konrad Lorenz
