Re: Revolution running on Ubuntu?
Hi Peter, I use Rev under Fedora and SuSE linux. Don't expect everything to run 'perfectly', but it will run very well. One 'gotcha' if you are running under KDE: make sure you close klipper (clipboard tool) as it will interfere with your cut/copy/paste ability in the script editor. There is a bug filed about this problem, but you just have to work around it for now. Hope this helps. Cheers, Rishi Viner.

RE: Revolution Compatible Registration Tool
Any opinions about the pros and cons of AISIP vs. ASP? I was Vice President and also a member of the BOD at the ASP as well as being a member for many years. The ASP is good - but I find the politics annoying and found myself unsubscribing from the newsgroups to avoid that and the squabbling. The ASP is a non-profit. I disliked the committee to form a committee approach and let my membership expire this year. AISIP is privately owned so there are no politics, any squabbles (and I can't remember one since inception of the org') are dealt with immediately by Sue Pinchotta (the owner operator). Sue's a great lady and very fair. Both the ASP and AISIP have several newsgroups. I find the signal to noise ratio in AISIP to be of a higher quality. Both the ASP and AISIP offer member discounts on software, books etc. But best of all everybody is friendly and willing to help in AISIP, where as the ASP can be a bit of an in club. I was in the in club and felt badly for those who were not. Both org's offer value in different ways. But I prefer AISIP.

Re: Basic Object Address Question
Dave, it's just a mistake, see that when you put the long name of a control into a var, that variable also contains the type of control, it's a complete reference. for example, on a newly created stack, the long name of card 1 returns: card id 1002 of stack Untitled 1 So if you put the long name of a control into a variable, when you're using it, you don't need the control kind, so your example should be: put the long name of card 1 into myCardName put the name of control 1 of myCardName See?

RE: The KRM (Re: Revolution Compatible Registration Tool)
My concern about Kagi -- and I've been a member for a long time -- is that their rates are quite high when compared, e.g., to PayPal. I'm with Regsoft right now and have been for some years. But DigitalRiver have been making some noises that RegSoft is a ageing platform, which does not sound good. I'm using PayPal and a PayPal support service called SoftSeller to handle the soft-goods fulfillment. They charge 25 cents per download regardless of how many files are in the download. I'm not rapt with PayPals rule changing. But they are cheap. But none of this addresses the original concern of having partial software services available pending an unlock code. I think that requires individual scripting in the stack and some sort of registration process that doesn't actually deliver a product but rather a code that the user can use to unlock the software for full access. (Of course, there's no reason that you couldn't deliver a full version of the software as the second step, overwriting the original, crippled version, in which case something like softseller.com could work nicely.) This is an issue that is discussed over and over on various newsgroups. In some ways I think it depends on the product, the type of customer and the size of the app. A 20 meg app isn't an attractive option for re-download. But a developer tool is. Of course - I don't write 20 meg app's. g Scott ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

RE: Basic Object Address Question - and wrapper answers sauce a la TAOO
On Behalf Of Eric Chatonet Dave, Try: put long name of group myGroup into myGroupName -- myGroupName is now a variable that includes all information about the control -- so you do not need to write: put the name of group myGroupName, but only: put the short name of myGroupName Eric, This is my favorite way to talk to objects... put the long name of control x into thisobject you can do everything safely now to your thisobject... set the rect of this object to arect except assuming thisobject is a field delete line 2 of thisobject or worse put empty into thisfield you are then working on the variable, emptying it's valuable content... so this requires the clever dynamic script trick i love so much: do put empty into thisfield [see the do command in the revdocs ;)] Test it a bit... to avoid lengthy checking of what went wrong try first to get command string -- eg get the time do it If you breakpoint after the get, you can easily see the command that is going to be fed to the compiler... eh, sorry, interpreter... Dynamic scripts are slower - but not that slow... - wrappers a la Taoo - delicious with a great IDE like Rev... This lends itself to wrappers anytime! How to build your own libraries? ... do something to this library context object... so in brief, we modularize and normalize (reduce) handlers to their minimum such that they are strictly verbobject params. Here for a field class library we have a great example... verbfield with some exceptions that require dynamic scripting. And it's the way TAOO or many other libraries work too - using both the basic long name reference and the dynamic execution. I know some expensive tools that dont do this and they suffer badly from it! Remember the key is to use the long name. It avoids all confusions. on ClearFields objs repeat for each line thisobj in objs if exists(thisobj) then do put empty into thisobj end repeat end ClearFields For more examples, try my geometry manager GIM.rev on MonsieurX.com (easy to 'find'). Since the long name contains the full path to any control, you can't miss working on the right field or tripping on a changed-name field!!!

RE: Getting All the non grouped controls in a card
Actually, Eric, he was asking for those controls *not* in a group, but your code works with one minor adjustment (and a name change): Ken is right... but in the basic object address form it's much easier to read... put the long name of cd 1 of stack StackPath/StackName.rev into thiscd put the number of controls in thiscd into controlcount repeat with x = 1 to controlcount get the long name of the owner of control x of thiscd if it is not thiscd then put it cr after controllist -- or put it into cdcontrols[x] end if end repeat and there more variations im sure ;) just replace the long id|name for the id|name match ;) Oh yes, all these types of things are already in GIM since 2 months - available for the curious... cheers Xavier http://monsieurx.com/taoo - 90% of your scripting is done... isn't it time you started getting the application put together faster? ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

This all depends on the application and its popularity... To some extent.

Nor do I. But I have customers who *do*. i also got unlimided downloads and adsl going so... downloads dont have a price... they just compete for diskspace... You filling your HD's like I am huh? Hardest thing in my life is sorting out the stuff I don't need. g I have a 32 gig drive just for backups of tools I use sometimes. Elasticity of demand economix... True. But we still can't lose sight of the fact that the majority of the world isn't in our position. ADSL in Australia is *still* relatively expensive and most plans have a maximum number of megs (or gigs) you can pull down a month. I'm on an 8 gig plan. Some people have plans as low as 500 meg a month. It's getting cheaper - but slowly and our major Telco has a monopoly on the exchanges.

Re: Creating a answer hyperlink
I could be wrong (often am) but I think you'll have to use a regular substack to do this and not an answer dialog. As far as I can tell, an answer dialog responds only to clicks on buttons, not to any mouse actions in the text. You *could* of course program a button click to take the user to the site with revGoURL but since you have no control over the appearance of the buttons or of the labels of the buttons in an answer dialog, I'm not sure that accomplishes what you want. The good news is that doing this in a substack is easy and, in some ways, preferable to using the built-in ask/answer dialogs anyway.

Problem with Scrolling List Field
Hi All, I have a Field that is setup as a scrolling list. I can add to the list no problem. However I want to be able to let the user select a single item in the list and then press a delete button to delete it. This is the code I have, on the Field: on mouseUp local myClickLine put the clickLike into myClickLine if myClickLine is not empty then select myClickLine else select empty end if end mouseUp Then on the delete button: on mouseUp local mySelectedLine put the selectedLine into mySelectedLine if mySelectedLine is not empty then put theSelectedLine --Dump to message box delete theSelectedLine select empty else beep end if end mouseUp But when I run this, the first time I selected a line it *sometimes* works but then it doesn't work from then on, e.g. it doesn't delete the line, but the message box contains line and field number as expected. If I manually type delete line 1 of field 1 in the message box, the line gets deleted as expected. What am I doing wrong???

Re: Creating a answer hyperlink
Hi Chris, Could you explain how do you get this result? A priori, if you use the standard dialog, the linkClicked message will be sent to the answer dialog stack (card 1) and never to the calling stack. May be this works in a standalone if the standard dialog has become a substack and if your call is located in the script of your main stack (I did not verify). I asked Runrev a long time ago to handle links in answer dialogs (at least revGoUrl the effective text and revMail the effective address) but I was not heard...

A reassuring read. Makes me glad I never jumped on the bandwagon with commodity languages like Java and VB. Anything that can be commoditized will be sent overseas today, and done by robots tommorrow. I don't know about the rest of you folks, but I spend more time doing requirements analysis and design than coding. Those jobs can be outsourced only at the publisher's peril: design work requires an intimate understanding of not just the regional culture of the target audience, but also the organizational culture. You have to directly observe users in action, interview people at all levels of the organization your software will support, and learn when to listen to what they tell you and when to read between the lines to hear not what they're able to articulate but what they really mean. Software design is more about workflow than algorithms, more about people than machines. A tool like Rev is already doing most of the work that other companies outsource: the bit-counting tedium of lower-level languages. Us Rev devs ge get to focus on the people side of the business, which for me is more enjoyable (when I was working in C I kept asking, Why am I typing this -- can't the machine do this for me?), and not likely to move offshore anytime soon (except perhaps with short-sighted companies who prefer to jeopardize their viability by blurring the distinctions between short-term savings and long-term ROI, and I try to avoid working with companies that aren't ROI-driven anyway). -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation __ Rev tools and more: http://www.fourthworld.com/rev ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
colors in scrolling text field
I am creating a scrolling log of program activities, and want to color code the output so that normal events are black or green, but problems are shown in red. I played with setting colors in a regular field, and the colors seem to stick to the field positions, rather than moving with the characters. Am I correct about this? I tried setting the foregroundcolor in a text chunk that was stored in a local variable, but that failed. The idea was to set the colors up in the string before it went out to the scrolling field, in the hopes that the colors would magically be set in the string and follow the characters out to the scrolling field. This does not seem to work either. Am I trying to do something that is not possible in Rev, or am I just not clear on how to accomplish this? I know that HTML support is somehow built into parts of Rev: would using font color=green work? I tried it, and it did not work trivially. :) Jon ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

All- I spent some time yesterday downloading and experimenting with the Bloodshed Dev C++ compiler to create Windows external libraries and came up with this: Yes, it can be done. There are a couple of undocumented options you need to set in order to do this. The Bloodshed help file seems fairly useless (where have I heard this before?) but perusing the online gcc documentation with Google gave better, if painstaking, results for the command-line options. There may be #pragmas for some of these things but I haven't found them. Include your source file and XCmdGlue.c. Under Project | Project Options select the Parameters tab. Then in the Linker window you will want to have just these two options: -fno-leading-underscore -def myDLL.def or whatever the name of your def file is The contents of myDLL.def should be: LIBRARY external EXPORTS getXtable Hope this helps someone. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I played with setting colors in a regular field, and the colors seem to stick to the field positions, rather than moving with the characters. Am I correct about this? I tried setting the foregroundcolor in a text chunk that was stored in a local variable, but that failed. The idea was to set the colors up in the string before it went out to the scrolling field, in the hopes that the colors would magically be set in the string and follow the characters out to the scrolling field.

Re: Revolution Compatible Registration Tool

At this point I'm looking for any system to do this, perhaps it could be web integrated or be able to unlock with a serial code while offline, anything of the sort. Has anyone found a ready-made system to distribute like this with Revolution? And perhaps one that can be used on the same cross-platform support which Revolution itself offers. Any ideas?

Every year they manage to shut down the exchange of porn and copies of Thomas Paine's Common Sense but have never accomplished a thing with regard to piracy. - A growing number of developers protect themselves by banning whole ranges of IPs assigned to those countries (it would be ideal if these nations would merely enforce international law, but in the meantime developers do what the can to contain costs). - In stark contrast to the effectiveness of the motion picture industry, the software industry is almost entirely inneffectual at protecting their businesses, apparently unable to negotiate the same sort of international law enforcement arrangements Hollywood does all the time. - Games aside, most of those who download a stolen product will never actually use it (there's a weird hoarding thing that goes on where simply having it taking up space on their hard drive somehow feeds something in their lives). - A great many stolen/[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] are available in programs that are actually Trojan horses, spewing all manner of malware throughout the user's system.
