 If you're going ahead, then I'll take care of changing the respective
 occurrence in The Manual.
 Currently we're listing --telnet= as Enable telnet server on the
 specified port. and --props= as Open connection using the
 interactive property manager. If the two are really identical then I
 suppose one of our explaations in The Manual is incorrect or at least
 misleading. Right ?

Right. Better don't mention --props any more, though it will keep
working at least until after the next release.

Hmm ... and while adapting some more documents that I had forgotten,
I noticed that parts of the option framework (options.xml) can't
be used to display two possible calls:

  --telnet=port
  --telnet=medium,direction,hz,medium_options[,...]

... so I'm going to revert the changes. --props is no longer obsolete.
But it's still the same as --telnet.  :-/

 Cool, I've wanted this for a long time. Now if I can only find some time
 to use it. Speaking of which, I am seriously committed to going to
 medical school in about 2 years, so really expect me to drop off the
 face of the earth until about 2012 or so. For anyone with serious
 interest in the B-29, Canberra, CH-53e or anything else I have done I
 will be happy to send you the gimp and blend files plus all my research
 material.

Hello Josh
I am sad to learn, you will be out for a long time, your last models, mainly 
to me, your CH-53e was so promising, we can hope somebody else will achieve 
it.
Good luck for your new life.

Regards

Hi Josh,

all the best for your medical school career.
Hopefully you won't loose all interest for aviation and flightsimming
over these years of hard work.

[Flightgear-devel] missing stackwalker and link error

2007-05-05 Thread Joseph Cameron
Where did stackwalker come from? Nothing on FG web site and no instructions as 
to whose version to download. Was it left in by accident?

Also, getting the following link error. who makes this lib?

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'OpenThreadsd.lib'
