After another longer pause, a new version of netrik is now out. There is a fairly simple, but very convenient new feature: If you go back to a page from history (or reload the current one), the link which was active when leaving the page is not only reactivated when it's still in the same place, but also if the page is somewhat different than it was. This is especially useful when reading newstickers or other dynamic pages. But even changing ads can cause layout changes, so this can also help with otherwise static pages.

It supports recursively descending through a directory in order to make sure it encrypts or decrypts every file in a directory and all of its subdirectories. In order to help save space all files are compressed using gzip before being encrypted and decompressed upon decryption. In addition, gpgdir is careful not to encrypt hidden files and directories.

The issue is that slashd stops working, and it appears to be when it calls prog2file(), and I'm assuming that the line in prog2file() is the backticked execution of the command passed. There are previous threads regarding this here and here, and I've seen other discussions away from SlashCode too. These threads all just seem to peter out without any resolution. Here's my question: I've removed the last two calls to prog2file from freshenup.pl, and slashd now keeps going fine, and my site still seems to be working... what have I broken by removing these calls? Is this wise (I suspect not) :) And has anyone resolved this issue??? Slash not emailing Daily Headlines / Stories http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/26/176227 I have got a basic install up and running and so far everything is behaving as expected in terms of the web ui. My previous post regarding external authentication is being followed up with the developers of our current community software, I will post whatever developments come from that should others find it useful. One oddity I am noticing is that the website is not emailing me like it did the very first day. I received a report on the activity along with the news headlines. The next day and from then on in I have not received any mail. The system is mailing correctly. New registrations and password requests come through without any problems at all. It seems limited to the cronish sort of things. I can not find any errors in the logs to help guide me here, has anyone else experienced this? One thing I did do that may have broken something was change my slash install from on domain to another by going through the install process again. Any pointers would be most appreciated, Mitchell Installing Slash article on Linux Journal website http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/26/176200 Linux Journal have just published on their website an article of mine called "Installing Slash for a Private Project". Rather than a definitive HOW-TO, it's more of a description of what I went through to get things working. --Paul Barry Release of Galleria Photo Gallery plugin v1.0 http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/22/1851255 The title says it all. Galleria v1.0 finally made it out of beta and has been released. More information is at Lottadot.com Slash::Blob http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/21/2044216 I've added Slash::Blob to the main dist in CVS.

It will be the foundation for most of the new features we are adding so that we can use images and pdf files with stories (and other subsystems). If you are writing modules you may find it useful for your own applications. Feedback is welcome. Link Tag to Enable Auto-Discovery of RSS Files http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/21/1652216 Recently, I have been making small changes to my Slash sites to make them integrate better into the weblog communities dominated by Blogger, Radio from Userland, Movable Type, and similar tools. I found out that some of the weblog aggregation tools look for a specific link tag in the head portion of a site's home page in order to locate that site's RSS file. This is the kind of thing that can be added to a template without changing any code. Here's the code itself: <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS" href="__YOUR_RSS_URL__"> For more information about the research I did to arrive at this conclusion, see the article How Weblog Monitors Automatically Discover RSS Feeds on CTDATA.com. ExploitSeattle http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/20/0731202 ExploitSeattle is your daily dose of events occuring in the Emerald City. Its run by a horde of rain soaked Seattlites who's quest to relieve boredom and promote cool stuff(TM) caused them to create a site to list their hip and not so hip events. SuSE8.1 installation test failures for Mysql modul http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/18/2151208 I have installed slash test sites on debian a few times before, but now I'm trying to install a permanent site on SuSE8.1 I'm having problems installing Bundle::Slash - MIME, Mysql modules & libapreq are all failing their tests. I'm installing Bundle::Slash within a perl shell. I'll concentrate on Mysql module here. I'm no perl expert (not even a perl beginner), but it seems to be a problem with lib.pl in testing the Mysql module. At line 253 & 254, my build complains about these 2 lines with "Illegal character in prototype for main::ErrMsgF : @_ at t/lib.pl line 254" Here's the lines, what's wrong with them ? If they're wrong, how come they're in the bundle ? sub ErrMsg (@_) { print (@_); } sub ErrMsgF (@_) { printf (@_); } There's also a warning during the "perl Makefile.PL" phase about CAPI & PL_FILES which I don't understand either. " WARNING: CAPI is not a known parameter. WARNING: PL_FILES takes a hash reference not a array reference. Please inform the author. " Again, if the code is wrong, why is it bundled as a stable release ? I suspect that my problems are just a side effect of something else....can anyone out there point me in the right direction? I have a build log if anyone needs to see it. thanks! Nou la SURSE.RO http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=03/02/17/1851222 Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I started my own slash-site, targeted at the Romanian audience. The site is intented to be a Romanian version of Slashdot, but focus falls on local stories.
