Pixilang tutorial by Brian Muramatsu- confusion added by me

So with certain success managed to understand the tutorial!
You have to understand that for me this has been a long and hard day!
Was crying a little bit.
No it was not too hard what took time was that you are supposed to use a text editor to be able to program as you don't do it directly in Pixilang- when that finally got understood and did not try to enter text in the Pixilang window everything fell more or less into place-
And now me too can do glittering floaty stuff in tune with my SunVox compositions.

If you are a programmer maybe you should stop reading now...
And if you are as zero % as me when it comes to programming take my hand and lets see what we can learn because if I could learn to do this you will too.
 (if you have the interest of course).
Well it is not really any kind of programming more a manipulation of existing code...

So lets begin:
In the video  there is one thing of importance that did not get brought up and that is that you need a text editor to write the code. 
Downloaded a free one called notepad++ and it seems fine.
So in the video when he shows code it will look different because he uses Linux and another text editor- So what I want to say is that if you use the text editor notepad++ it looks like this-

So what you want to understand is that you open the text editor and from there you go to the Pixilang archive you want to open in the case of the video tutorial it would be in the Soul resonance folder and open the file called boot. So now you have access to the code which you can manipulate and even if you save the file as ".txt" Pixilang will load it and do whatever you have programmed. 
Okay so here is the video that have been posted before at Musical Android but without me blubbering on beforehand.
So hope that have peaked your interest because if you learn just some of Pixilang it can be a way to do nice videos or why not take it farther and do some music applications that you can open in your Android Device, as PixiTracker, Pixelwave and SoundGen are made with Pixilang and not too forget the Cool Application Pixivisor.
Have to love that one of the selling points of PixiVisor is for EVP experiments!

Well will the rest of the week continue my small investigation into Pixilang and will go through the second tutorial that Muramatsu have made and hopefully learn some more!
Also must mention that Muramatsu have said that he would write something for us regarding Pixilang and that DA DA DA make another tutorial this weekend!
Hooray for Brian!
Also want to show you all that I had success- 
(also learned that the screen recorder is not very good for sound even on the highest settings- used Camtasia and if someone have a better suggestion regarding the sound qualities and another screen recorder please let me know at  musicalandroid@yahoo.com)
Don't forget that the album Soul Resonance that Nightradio have provided on his website free of charge that uses Pixilang for visualisation- the files also contains the SunVox files so you can really study how he makes the music. (if you have SunVox of course).

Pixelang is pretty powerful and I enjoy it.

You also forgot to mention it can make games too if you're so inclined. :)
