What is Empowered Programmer (EP from now on) ? It is my attempt to distill out the essence of what's needed to create a Windows program. EP's deepest purpose in life is simple and direct. This is to create Win32 executables at a basic level ie. close to the machine and OS, and at the same time in an easy (at least not too tedious or difficult) way. So EP is something of an IDE. Nothing else is needed except Win32 documentation (some background in assembly language and hexadecimal notation will be helpful). EP reads a text file written in a particular form and structure and converts it into a Windows .exe file. That's it. It is not linked to or based on any particular language like C, Basic and so on. It has a mild assembler like syntax but is not a full fledged assembler. As I said before EP's goal is to write Windows programs and as such it supports only a subset of the total assembler instructions available -- only that subset which is needed to write a Windows program. Just try out this tiny 214KB download . You can write complex Windows programs ,you can create Windows .exe files, you can debug , and all the while you will be in total control. Only what you decree happens , nothing goes on behind your back. You will see that really it’s not at all difficult , as it is thought to be . Try out this program and then get back to your favorite IDE [ ie. if you still want to !] You will definitely feel the difference.
