Re: Plucker bug or problem on my device?
As a suggestion for a future release, it would be nice if a Delete operation would simply remove the document entry if the underlying document didn't exist, rhather than leaving a stray pointer to nothing lying around. Wouldn't this require Plucker to scan your RAM, ROM, and card(s) at startup to determine that, thus removing the feature you've set to Manual? It used to do this in fact, but now no longer does, due to long scan times. Meanwhile, does anyone have an idea of what might be going on here? I'm about at the point of doing a hard reset on the Visor, and redoing everything from scratch to try to clear up the problem. That might work also, but I suspect that since you deleted the doc outside of Plucker, it doesn't know it is missing, and since you didn't do a refresh, all of the pointers are messed up, and Plucker believes the document exists when it doesn't, when you try to move it or file it. It all seems logical to me, but then again, for Plucker to fix the pointer to the doc, it would have to scan the card(s) and find out if the ref to the doc in the library list actually exists on the device, before moving it. Then you're back to square one again, long scanning times. d. ___ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
Screen Scraping lawsuits?

Tungsten|T and Plucker
I was recommended Plucker from an ebook list, but the program crashes and resets my Palm Tungsten|T every time I try to start it. However I used the program sucessfully on my Palm III a short while until I got the new Palm. Is this a known problem or is it just mine? What I get is a Fatal Alert: Field68K.c, Line:253, Form object (field) not found. Earlier it said that ZLib compression was not supported by my device, I reinstalled the lib providing it, thinking another application might have replaced it with an older version or something, then the message changed into this. I am not running any weird OS extensions (the only application that comes close to this is DateBk4 I guess) and most other software worked fine after the move to the new palm. Looking forward to hear other peoples ideas on this. -- AA #769 ICQ: 1645566 Yahoo: Ichimusai AOL: Ichimusai1972 MSN: Ichimusai IRC: Ichimusai#AmigaSWE@IRCnet URL: http://www.ichimusai.org/ Kazegusuri to rusuban denwa cat food to oki tegami sayonara mo iwanai no!

RE: Plucker bug or problem on my device?
I call it a possible bug because I don't know if it's a problem with Plucker itself, or is a side-effect of something screwy on my Visor. The latter case is why I'm tempted to do a hard reset and redo everything from scratch. Have you reported it in bugs.plkr.org yet? If not, please do, and be as detailed as possible in your report, making sure to fill out the fields for your Plucker version, and other details, as well as what you tried, and what effects it had on your device and version of Plucker. Why is removing the document entry from the library listing an inappropriate response to that condition? My guess: because without a rescan, Plucker still thinks the document exists. It has no reason to think othewise. Let's report it and let the others pick it apart. d. ___ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list

My feel is that if the delete operation returns an error because the underlying file isn't there, that should be evidence that the document doesn't exist, and removing the listing from plkrdoclist is an appropriate response. :) I'll report this one, too. d. __ Dennis ___ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
Plucker corrupted card?
I hadn't noticed until today, that there was a newer hires version of plucker on hires.plkr.org (I was currently using the 20021124 version with no problems. After installing the 20030110 version, launching Plucker resulted in a DnWriteCheck crash. After restarting my Sony T615 popped up the unrecognized Format dialog asking if I wished to reformat. I hit cancel, but now I see that everything on my 16mb memorystick has been wiped out. I had 2 plucker files on the card, most of them in main memory. I still cannot launch plucker, even after using the cleaner utility. I'll have to revert and try and figure out what was all on the card that I now need to reinstall. Anyone else have a problem like this? It's been out for a while and I haven't seen mention of problems, not even mention of an upgraded version until something I read today.

Plucker 1.2.0.3 MSW package: Sync to card, Conduit, Terminate-nice commandline
A new Plucker package is available for MS Windows. It is available at: www.clinicalexam.com/pluckerdesktop/downloads/msw/plucker_desktop_setup.exe The three main parts included are: (1) A conduit that allows the ability to update any due channels when hit the HotSync button, and install them to the device. Enable/disable this by Preferences Autoupdate and take the newly unhidden 4th radiobutton. This is from Bill Nalen and works very slick in testing. (2) Sync output directly to card from plucker-desktop (This was just built based from what users described as happening, I don't know if it will work). There is multiple destinations as before, but a new column for RAM vs. card. Built to use the feature also for POSIX and pilot- link when sync-to-card code is contributed to pilot-link. (3) The case of: - MS Windows - in commandlinemode - using progress dialog - set to automatically close when done now properly terminates the application. Also when there is no channels due, it just ends silently [instead of popping a dialog that says no channels are due], as per the docs. Will spend next while on some other outstanding things, like IPC ready for Tony's PlkrData and some other things that are in the feature tracker on plkr.org.
