I'm a fan of 'http://wunderground.com' You can use 'plucker-build --doc-file=Weather --doc-name=Weather --tables --bpp=4 http://printer.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=46552' and substitute your zip-code for mine (46552). If you set bpp higher than 4 the drawn table is too large for a single off-screen window and you'll see [TABLExx] instead of the table icon.

On Tue, Jul 29, 2003, Alexander R. Pruss wrote: And I take it we will do a feature freeze at that point? Nope. The main trunk is the unstable branch, so the development continues for a while longer (it will still be released as 1.5, but the odd number indicates an unstable release.) At some point we will create a new stable branch (1.6) and development will continue on the unstable branch (the main trunk will always be the unstable branch; each unstable release will be tagged in CVS, though.) Still, considering the amount of new stuff in the main trunk it might be a good idea to make a feature freeze/new stable branch quite soon ;-) /Mike ___ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev

Re: table test
Ah - I see. I guess I will have to go with full pathnames . I didn't want to move the cache files, etc. - just the destination for created files. since setting pluckerdir causes plucker to look at that directory for everything, i'll just go the other route. thanks for the pointer though - I appreciate your help. -- Tcl - The glue of a new generation.

Document type ID
I was examing the Plucker databases in FileZ and noticed that they all have the type ID 'Data'. That seems like a very generic type ID, especially since lots of applications use 'Data' for their internal databases. A more distinctive file type would be very helpful. I tend to think of the type ID as being as lot like a file extension. Using a generic extension like .dat makes it harder for file managers and other applications to recognize the Plucker format. This could be important when other applications start reading the Plucker format. I would suggest 'Plkr' for the type. The big problem would be the transition. Changing the current code to recognize and generate the new type is easy. The problem is that old versions wouldn't recognize the new type ID. I guess the right time to do it is when there is an incompatible change in the file format that only new versions of the viewer can read. - Ian -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.znark.com/ ___ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev
Re: Document type ID
But the creator code is Plkr, so third-party utilities that want to read the files can just look for Plkr Data files. Alex -- Dr. Alexander R.
