Re: revLet: dynamic resizing when browser window resizes
Hi fellow coders, just figured out the way to fix this visual glitch. Essentially you can't use the geometry manager at this stage - you need to use a resizeStack handler and code it yourself. Interestingly the following geometry seems to work: the screenrect: 0,0,1440,900 the rect of this card: 0,0,868,504 the rect of this stack: 274,212,1142,716 all though setting the width of the card does not - which would have been a lot of fun. Here is the test revLet - http://www.revtalk.org/tests/Test/test.html which seems to work well - though there are a few occasional flashes of grey on FireFox OSX.

How to Dial Using Rev ?
Hi - I am a long time OOP user, Rev fan and message board lurker. I have a totally off topic question. Many years ago I built a program that will dial a phone number through the modem port and then hang up. My handset is on a Y connection to the phone line so it stays open and I can speak to the dialed number. The program records all the time date info etc so it is very handy for keeping track of things. Originally I wrote it in HyperCard then SuperCard etc where a simple Dial command followed by the number was sufficient. Unfortunately Rev does not have this function. However back in 2005 ago there was a brief discussion about this online and I was very lucky to find this little piece of code that works perfectly for my PC. put *67 before theNumber open file com3: for write write ATS7=1L0DT theNumber cr to file com3: wait 5 secs close file com3: I do not understand much of this, but it appears that it's usual function is to dial a fax machine in order to transmit letters etc. My problem is that I want to use this dialing program on my iMac running OS X but unfortunately it does not function there. I imagine the dialing code is similar, but figuring it out is beyond my expertise. Does anyone have any suggestions at to what to do, where to look, who to ask, etc ?

Re: How to Dial Using Rev ?
I still use a bunch of hyperdialer gadgets that connect between a handset and the telephone. The HC dial command generates DTMF tones, so that in an address book, a one line script will dial the number. In fact, before I found those devices (20 years ago) it was possible to have the tones played over the speakers. If you held the handset up close, one could dial a number perfectly well. But I only replied to say that I thought all HC commands were supported in Rev to the extent that they at least did nothing. But there is no dial in the dictionary. Are there others?

Re: revLet: dynamic resizing when browser window resizes
Hi David, David Bovill-4 wrote: Hi fellow coders, just figured out the way to fix this visual glitch. Essentially you can't use the geometry manager at this stage - you need to use a resizeStack handler and code it yourself.

[OT] Emsisoft
I have been sorting out several machines for a client; an office that uses a mixture of machines running Windows XP, Ubuntu and MintLinux. The Windows machines work in an intranet that has no connexion to the internet or to the other intranet consisting of the Linux boxes that are connected to the internet. One job I had to do was to take 2 hard disks out of a Pentium 4 running XP and pop them into a faster machine. However the machine was running slowly and behaving queerly; so, although it has not direct contact with the internet I thought just for fun I would run some anti-virus stuff on it. I downloaded Emsisoft because it allows one a 3 day full-featured trial. It is extremely impressive insofar as it does a job which I don't believe should be necessary on any operating system in an efficient manner. Well my just for fun very rapidly became egg all over the face when it became clear that the Windows machines were infected with an even dozen of nasties; the most ugly being Trojan.Win32.FakeAV!IK and Trojan-Downloader.Agent!IK The only way I can account for these computers having become infected is through workers in this office transferring infected MSWord and MSExcel files from the Linux boxes to the Windows ones with USB Flash drives. The only other possibility is that the staff are being 'disingenuous', and have also been using their Flash drives on computers running Windows at home or elsewhere. --- As an essentially Non-Windows person (and my recent finding only serves to make me even more 'Non' than I was before) I should be very grateful if somebody who knows more about this than I do (well, that shouldn't be difficult) could tell me: 1. Can virusus / trojans attach themselves to MSWord / Excel documents? 2. Can viruses be downloaded simultaneously as documents onto USB sticks plugged into Linux boxes that then infect Windows boxes on transfer? sincerely, Richmond Mathewson ___ 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: [OT] Emsisoft
Some of the nastiest and earliest viruses were macro viruses in excel and word documents. Most corporate machines prevent macro's from allowable execution without a warning (if they allow it at all). Also, thumb drives are possibly the biggest threat to corporate computers. An audit team from a top 3 firm I know tested the security mechanisms in a company by dropping infected thumb drives in the parking lot and watching how people picked them up and plugged them into the corporate computers. As the thumb drives, like cds/dvds, will play an autoplay file when mounted, its a perfect way to inject a virus if people allow it to run. Most secure shops prohibit thumb drives.

Re: Getting an Audio Plugin Created ( was RE: [audio] Call for anupdated enhanced quicktime audio library ora small audiocomplementary library!)
I find their licensing terms really fine and I like their attitude too. This library really smells good to me. So I have emailed them too. Technically I have not yet used external libraries. As I understand it we have to create a runrev wrapper in the X code environment. I guess if one makes one, it can be used by any other, so long their usage sticks to the license. Since there is a free step and we should to test it out, if it was something easy to do for an externals specialist, it would be a great help to share this wrapper. (I took time to read the rev artice on how to use externals). Also, considering the technicalities of dealing with audio, I understand that runrev have not commited to it. Now a specific global agreement allowing runrev to incorporate the major most required functions would be great!! Special needs would be covered by an additional library with a direct license from BASS. Anybody in touch with the runrev team personnaly? As for sharing things over here, I 'll exchange the BASS wrapper for the workaround audio trick I found to record mp3 in a stack, as shared revOnline stacks! My position is to share technical tricks that should not pose problems (normally or ideally?) but that in practice lead to headaches... that one should not wish for your neigbhour!!!

Monitor Shell Copy File Progress
Work working on an in-house file manager - RCS for Indesign (since Adobe did an end of life for Version Cue) It's coming along well, in fact really well. One challenge is that I'm using lots of these: put (mv quote gLocalFilePath quote quote (gLocalProjectPath / tShortFileName) quote) into tShell get shell (tShell) put (cp quote (gLocalProjectPath / tShortFileName) quote quote (gServerProjectPath / tShortFileName) quote) into tShell get shell (tShell) to more files around and rename them... it works great. Is there a way to monitor a background shell process like this? The problem is if you copy from the Big Server on the LAN... to my Little MacBook Pro... you won't know when the file is completely copied to the local hard drive before doing: launch (gLocalProjectPath / pFileName) with the uInDesignPath of this stack Typically RunRev will issue the unix cp command and then immediately launch inDesign, which crokes because the file is incomplete on the local hard drive. Now I have some ideas about how to do this: get the checksum some of the remote file, do a send in 30 ticks (repeatedly) test of the local file until the local file's checksum matches the remote file and then launch it. But before I go after this, I was wondering if anyone had any other method? Most cool would be a progress bar, but I'm not sure RunRev can monitor a local unix copy file processor, if it can, how to do it. Thanks!

Re: (no subject)
Hi Ruslan. 2 things weigh against your assessment. First, one of the databases is remote and it happens to be the one I am querying 1 record at a time. The second thing is that to my knowledge you cannot create joins between 2 tables in different databases. The source database is a local file based SQLite database to further complicate matters. I want to employ a method that could work with databases of 1000 records or 1,000,000 records. To do that means I cannot risk memory overflow in runrev by huge query results. For this particular application I would never hit that limit, but what if I want to take the functionality of my data import module and make it available by itself?it needs to work in all situations or not at all. That's how I think. My goal here is to import/merge data from a Spiceworks database of devices, software and other things. But in the future it could be anything. I am learning the limitations of querying remote SQL servers. For this application I think a local SQL server would be much better, but for the dev phase where I am out and about with my laptop on-rev will suffice.

Re: Monitor Shell Copy File Progress
First thought : I thought (according to Dictionary) that shell would
wait until the command was complete before returning - dictionary says
The current handler pauses until the shell returns its result. If the
command was successful but did not return anything, the shell function
returns empty.
Second try : why take a checksum, why not just use the file size ?
Getting the checksum may involve copying the file from the remote server
into your laptop to calculate the checksum.
Third try : instead of doing shell 'cp file ' could you do
load url (file: tRemotepathname)
check the cachedURLs
put url(file: tRemotepathname) into url('file: tLocalfilename)

Now I have some ideas about how to do this: get the checksum some of
the remote file, do a send in 30 ticks (repeatedly) test of the local
file until the local file's checksum matches the remote file and then
launch it.
But before I go after this, I was wondering if anyone had any other
method? Most cool would be a progress bar, but I'm not sure RunRev
can monitor a local unix copy file processor, if it can, how to do
it.

[Datagrid] How to : skip rows appearing, without deleting them in dgData?
The point is to be able to navigate through a data-tree structure. Datagrid doc and runrev how to's show how to implement a foldable row, that can show more or less information but from the same row. To navigate within a data tree structure, there is a need to by-pass the drawing of some lines (not wanted children rows, or not wanted father rows). Within the layout script of a row, I tried to set the rect row to 0,0,0,0. This works fine... the line/row disappears. But then... when you navigate with the arrow in the datagrid, the selected line disappers, while it hilites the unvisible row... forcing the user to press again the navigation arrow at that point. So : no good! Is there a more radical and more efficient way to skip lines without deleting them from the dgData ? -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Datagrid-How-to-skip-rows-appearing-without-deleting-them-in-dgData-tp2227554p2227554.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ 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: Monitor Shell Copy File Progress
I bet you could use cURL for this, using the FILE protocol. Build your
curl command line with filenames formatted for curl; open it as a
process for read; read that process's output every 500 msecs or so to
get the progress info.
I'm on assignment in NZ right now so I don't have everything at my
fingertips. Josh Mellicker made me aware of curl a few months ago, and
Ken Ray may have made a rev library of it by now. ;-) Also Mark Smith
created a rev curl lib some time ago.

Re: Apad - The Andriod iPad
There are a number of things you might want to worry about: The resolution is the same as the 4 inch Android phones. The screen is two inches smaller than the iPad. The CPU is 1/2-1/3 of the speed of other Android devices. It's perhaps close to the speed of an iPhone 3GS, but it has 2.5 times the number of pixels to drive. Its screen is resistive instead of the better capacitive touch, you may need to press harder to make things work. The battery capacity is 1/8th that of the iPad. The memory of the cheapest one is most likely 1/8th of the memory in the lowest end iPad. It comes with the 1.5 version of Android, which is not uncommon, but some features (such as Flash player 10.1) will need version 2.1. I'm not so confident that the device will be first in line to get OS updates. It is quite likely to have the typical number of touch points for low resolution Android devices, which means two at a time. iPad can be ten at a time. ___ 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

The equivalent on a Mac would be identical, except instead of com3 you'd want to use modem as the port specifier. Both the PC com3 port and the Mac modem port are serial ports. Rev can write to those just fine, but the problem you will find on your iMac is that it won't have any serial ports; Macs haven't supported those for some years, nor do they ship any longer with internal modems. You can buy USB modems, but unfortunately Rev can't read or write to USB ports. So if you have an older Mac that has a real serial modem port, you can dial with the above script by substituting modem for the port.
