To Sean - This was sent on Saturday but found the bit bucket

[Lagi Pittas via use-livecode]

Hi Sean,

First I must say that I am  relieved that you are ok - and didn't do
whatyou hinted at. I also admit to being the perpetrator of the heinous
crime of trying to help "one of us" in distress. But no, I didn't send the
police.

I did read your email to  the end btw - we do care even if you think the
world is against you at the moment! - If you don't have empathy then you
are a Politician or a Psychopath.

Before I start my lengthy stream of consciousness (ramblings?) please
accept the invite because gofundme keep sending me emails and I  do not
have access to the money.


Pride comes before a fall and respect isn't lost for one "failure" those
who love and respect you do for the sum total of your life not the
"failures" which can in many respects be out of our control.

And paraphrasing Roosevelt ...
"The  man who never had something go wrong  never did anything".

"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people
who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." Dale
Carnegie


Please re-read what you said and tell me how I was to react to this how
would I or your family have felt  if "goodbye" really was goodbye and we
had done nothing 


 I am £1000's down and well out of pocket. I will never
get it back. I have/will-have lost everything. I don't think I can come
back from this. My life is worth £0, especially to you guys. I'm like
abandon-ware. Your failure cost someone their life (not to mention his wife
and two boys who may well miss him but will be better off without him for
making the mistake of using LC and all things LC!).



Now my life is over. Worst Day Ever! Miserable. Rained on
and soaked through. Insurance doesn't cover for events like this and not
one person at LC or on here will be able to help me out of this hole. I
guess this is goodbye.


I might not have bothered except for the first  paragraph sounding so
final. it didn't sound like "shit this is bad". We have all  been faced
with a situation that seemed hopless and i've got that  t-shirt more times
than I care to remember.

 TL;DNR -- Short version SHIT HAPPENS!!! but never give up.

The worst  was when I was in hospital ready to start chemotherapy and
attached to a trolley having a blood transfusion and trying to finish  off
a program/demo (on my 386 windows 3.1  PC "kindly" brought in by my
partner) . We were going up  against some rather large companies for a
demonstration to British Telecom the next day.
I finished the program and in the end the program that won the contract,
did so because it had a GUI (it was written in VB) - Mine was written in
Turbo C with a dos windowing system and a multitasking kernel (it was a
multline voice application with a built in mini Domain Specific Language  I
wrote). The fact that it would not be seen by ordinary mortals and would be
in a "closet" just working it seems was secondary to the eye candy.

When I got out of hospital I wrote a VB front end to it and got it
installed into the biggest Opticians in the country - great I thought the
big time. No such luck - they were bought out and my system was replaced by
one of the big boys - to this day my system has stuff
that none of the later systems have.

O well. Get another  system into a  large telecommunications company  -
programmed to do what they wanted - we were vying against Digital Equipment
corporation and IBM, - I won because I  I could do it in 4 months (I did it
in 3) and they said a year. It worked! They then gave me a new contract job
to do,  that  saved them thousands  - great I thought my meal ticket - No
such luck  they were bought out by Vodaphone and DEC got back in.

I could go on. I created a system for a financial services company bought
out by a bigger firm and my system was replaced by IBM. Did I give up no.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPb8tb3D6N0

There have been more before and  since , there have been  BUGS in Borland
C,  Foxpro, TAS, Clipper, VB, Delphi, UCSD Pascal, AlphaSoftware  - but
that's what  you expect. I jettisoned everything and jumped in with LC - I
checked out and paid for B4A/IJ Xojo and a few others but I have to say LC
beats them all hands down but i keep them in reserve.

Ive been using 6.7.11 for my applications until last week when the
manufacturer of my equipment changed something in the firmware and the
com/serial ports wouldn't working. I compiled it with LC9 and all works now
- except it's 17MB file size instead of 7MB.

Yes the IDE is slower, yes certain things don't work - but show me a
language or program that doesn't have any bugs - here's one in basic - and
I'm not sure if it is bug free.

10 END

=

To speak directly to LC


I agree totally with Sean and Richmond and everybody else  STOP ADDING
NEW FEATURES GET THE STUFF FINISHED THAT YOU PROMISED AND FIX THE IDE.

I've been away for several weeks and saw this just now.
Let us help, the family needs and will get the help.

Lagi's engagement is worth more than money. Perhaps we should create
kind of a LC-developer-fund for emergency help?
Lagi would be the right person to manage such a fund.

I would ask everybody who uses (commercially) one of my widgets etc.
to donate to such a fund, just now to the above scemergency.

Re: Sean?

[prothero--- via use-livecode]

Folks,

I second what Lagi posted. A donation may not only provide needed funds, but 
sends a message to Sean, and all on this list, that we are a community that 
care not only about the product we are creating, but the folks who are creating 
it. That message is sent, whether the donation is 5 or 100.

Best,
Bill

Re: Sean?

[Lagi Pittas via use-livecode]

Hi Mark,

Gofundme are very credible and trustworthy.

I contacted them and they said I can change who the beneficiary is - to his
spouse or other family member.
So the correct people will get the money whatever the situation - God I
hate having to think about the worst case.

I thought the same when  I set it up but the what the heck (words to that
effect) I lose £100 so what - my family will still be OK.

Everybody, if you can  please give  what you can  afford now, not the
minimum that will make you feel that you have done your bit. It will go to
the correct people - this isn't PayPal who holds money on a whim.

Regards Lagi

I have not.  He has not yet responded to a message I sent him on 
LinkedIn, and his last Twitter posts were just a few hours before he 
last posted here.


I sent a connection request to his partner at his company (same last 
name, presumably a relative), and will inquire with him if the request 
is accepted.

I'm reluctant to put money into a gofundme account that is nonrefundable 
if nobody can access the funds. That seems like a bottomless pit.

Sean Shao's Calendar Widget

[Charles Szasz]

Chipp's wrapper for Sean Shao's calendar widget is great! I was able to use it 
to call it and insert a date into a field. But I do have a question about using 
it in multiple fields.

This is the script I am using in the OK button of the calendar widget:

on mouseUp
   set the dialogdata to line 1 of fld log
   
   if dialogdata is not empty
   then
  put item 2 of dialogdata into t ---month
  put / after t
  put item 3 of dialogdata after t ---day
  put / after t
  put item 1 of dialogdata after t ---year

  put t into field date1 of stack mileage report
  
  close this stack
   end if
   
end mouseUp

I tried using selectedField in my script in the OK button of the calendar 
widget above but that did not work:

if selectedField of card 1 stack mileage report = field date2 of card 1 
of stack mileage report
  then
 put t into field date2 of card 1 of stack mileage report
  else
 answer It did not work!
  end if

Any suggestions on how I can resolved this dilemma?  

Thanks for your time!

Re: Sean Shao's Calendar Widget

[Chipp Walters]

Charles,

The wrapper makes it easy to call the calendar widget with a single function
call. Please check the dialogdata AFTER the dialog is dismissed, and put
your biz logic there, not in the OK or any other button on the widget.
