    CodeLobsterPHP Edition 5.8 is out, supports Arabic!

    CodeLobsterPHP Edition continues it’s active development cycle by launching version 5.8 which brings many improvements to the  IDE, most notably an improvement long anticipated by Arab developers, Arabic support.

    In my review of CodeLobsterPHP IDE I listed not supporting Arabic as a con of this software, now I can proudly say that it supports Arabic, and I was asked by the company to test for Arabic support, here are the results:

     

     

    Arabic language working on the code pane

     

    Arabic language working on the preview pane

     

    Arabic language working on the inspector pane

    Many Arab developers like this IDE and they are interested in purchasing a license, the only thing stopping them is that CodeLobsterPHP Edition doesn’t support Arabic. Starting of version 5.8 that’s a thing of the past!

    I listed in my review of CodeLobsterPHP Edition that it has a friendly and responsive community, check the request I posted asking for Arabic language support, they are as good as I said they were!

    So here you have it!  It supports Arabic now!
    As an Arab developer, is having Arabic support in the tools a problem? How do you feel when Arabic is supported on such an amazing IDE? Would you try it? It has a free version you know 😉
    Let me here what you have to say, and expect an Arabic post about CodeLobsterPHP Edition soon!

     

    A couple more things to try before announcing the HDD dead!

    Hey there guys! What’s up?

    It happens to all of us! Suddenly a HDD fails and wont boot or run. Is all that data gone?

    Well, maybe not

    Assuming you have a backup of your data. physical or via a cloud server. Because loss can happen anytime!

    There are some things to try before throwing that HDD away!

    Depending on the HDD type you can connect it to another computer. If it’s an external then you need a special connection.

    The fault might be in the adapter of the HDD and changing it would resolve the problem!

    This is an adapter that connects to the HDD

    If it’s an old IDE HDD you need an IDE cable and of course a case computer to try it on. If you don’t have one or simply don’t feel like taking a dusty case apart then I recommend one of these:

    these connections can connect the SATA / IDE to a USB interface. No need for a case computer there!

     

    You have to be very careful when connecting these connections

    connecting the wrong cable would burn the HDD. Even if it was running!

    Happened with me and it was not pretty at all :'(

    so to sum up. Try this trick when facing a HDD problem. And remember to always backup!

    See you guys in a new post!

    Please interact with my post! It keeps me going ..
