What's that?
The new telnet server has really become nice. It's great to be able
to connect more than just once. :-)
But I don't like the new commands:
view set n display view 'n'
view get return current view index
view current return current view index
Why bloat the interface

degrees is where water boils, and a liter of water weighs one kilogram. *)

OK, OK. Degree Celsius is a so-called Derived SI Unit. :-)

So what is the SI unit for direction/heading? Certainly they wouldn't
overload unit names, right? :-)
There's no contradiction, as far as I see: degree comes

Have you noticed Deg/Rad/Grad or DRG on every scientific calculator?
Those are Grads. I've heard that the military use them ... but I haven't
seen any evidence of it.
Infantery and artillery use 0-6400 mil (called Strich over here), NBC also
uses

Should I just scrap my entire flightgear directory, throw it away, and
start over from scratch?
As a last resort, maybe. But you still didn't investigate the bug that
you originally reported: remember do ble?

As for line endings I think its simpler if we just use CRLF for both
client and server. I will check that the new server always sends CRLF.
ACK
Not that this is in any way obligatory, but the perl documentation says:

If I'm not mistaken the last release does not run if
you type in --aircraft=747-yasim because a model that doesn't exist is spec'd
in the -set.xml file.
Err ... I'd say it doesn't run because there seems to be some nasty
bug in Yasim or its 747 data.

That's now the case since a few weeks. The c310 works, though. (CVS

This is a YASim bug. Honestly, I wasn't aware that the currently

I just commited a YASim patch to fix the approach lift problem I
mentioned this morning. The 747, in particular, behaves much more
sanely on approach.
When I reported the 747 problem, it had nothing to do with approaching.
The 747 didn't work at all!

H...I installed the 747.xml and even did a make clean;make. Still having
the same problem. Any ideas?
Well, I don't have any useful ideas. I just want to confirm that
the 747 works for me with CVS-HEAD and the two files applied. There's
