Ren'Py is a visual novel engine – used by thousands of creators from around the world – that helps you use words, images, and sounds to tell interactive stories that run on computers and mobile devices. These can be both visual novels and life simulation games. The easy to learn script language allows anyone to efficiently write large visual novels, while its Python scripting is enough for complex simulation games.

You too can create a visual novel with this software. Of course it might not look like manga, it might just look like whatever artist draws for the novel.

Well, I have Linux Mint KDE 18.2 installed on the Studio PC.

Well, I have Linux Mint KDE 18.2 installed on the Studio PC. But it didn't go smoothly. I couldn't backup most of the files still on the drives, because the Live version of Mint wouldn't let me. copy files to the USB drive. This was probably permissions issue but this was the first time I had that issue!A The work around was to split the install over more than one drive. and then when it was all done it wouldn't boot direct and when I got to to up comes GRUB, listing a Windows install when there no longer is one?!

So, a bit more mucking around with the BIOS, with the Grub Customiser and and a few other things, before this is done properly.

Antimony is a computer-aided design (CAD) tool from a parallel universe in which CAD software evolved from Lisp machines rather than drafting tables.

It's also an experimental software package for computer-aided design. Objects are designed by linking nodes into a graph, where each node either creates a primitive shape or applies a transformation to one or more inputs.

I found the approach rather interesting.

Years ago I was interested in it because it more or less "Mozilla for Music" in that it was free, open-source, and based on an addin system so that you could choose and pick what functionality you wanted without having to add all the extras. But back then it wasn't a mature bit of software. Seems to me that maybe it is now.

So, MusicBee seems the most likely candidate for my music player on my Win10 PCs. Perhaps a big factor in my trying it was that it was available on the Microsoft Store. Installed seamlessly and so far has run well. But also, I can also install it on what might now be "The Linux PC" in the Studio (the old Studio PC).

Manuscript looks like an open-source version of Scrivener - it even has an index card / corkboard screen! There's a viewpoint timeline thing as well, so there must be character functions I guess. Only up to version 0.6.0, so early days yet.

This is a Linux distro that's a successor to Lindows, an attempt to integrate a certain degree of Windows compatibility into a Linux design. This is the free version, there's also a paid one at $US 79! It might be worth reading http://www.freespire.org/15-things-that-make-freespire-special/ to see why you'd bother.

Another Norton's Commander inspired descendant. This one looks solid enough.
