FineTune searching

2005-05-04 Thread FlexibleLearning
Hi troops, As part of a genealogy project, I needed a search that could be more or less specific (and so give more or fewer matches) depending on the User's selection of 'Narrow, Wide, Wider'. How have others resolved this? function booleanMatch fineTuneLevel,tStr,tSrcString --|

There is software that does writing with 'Gestures'. If you move the mouse/trackball in different movements it will 'write' text for you. I can't remember the name right now though. I would absolutely love a tablet Mac OSX with touch screen. I have used pen input and speech input/recognition

Xavier, It's true, you can implement object-oriented concepts in Transcript, but that doesn't make it an object-oriented language. You can write OO code in C - just implement C++ first and go from there, but that doesn't make C an OO environment. The argument that you can get many of the

Hello all you Linux/Unix gurus out there, I was hoping someone would be able to tell me a few things about where such systems put various types of files. Where so you store preferences? I see that the specialFolderPath() function is Windows Mac only, so how would I know where to store

This BZ on arrays would be a welcome enhancement, but it would not improve the speed of processing arrays. I was thinking along the lines of a high speed array processing instruction subset. They would be less flexible than what we have now --the nice flexible data types, dynamic memory

I now understand how to build a Standalone that saves data in a stack - first make a stub stack, and then create your real stack as a substack, and set the standalone options to treat it as a .rev file, so that the standalone user can save to it. My problem is that before I appreciated this, I

Hi Chipp, Franz, Alex and all! Thanks for your replys. Even though the tips for Win are useful they don´t really help at the moment, as I need to use a Mac with OsX. I´ll bookmark them anyway, just in case. ;-) The suggestion by Alex to set up FTP sounds good, but I have no idea how to do it. A

Pierre, I am quite aware of these, and that is what I want to run 10 times faster than. However, a lot can be done with the repeat for each more quickly than other Rev methods, but it can only be used with a single named array at a time. I have entered a BZ request for an additional
