Re: shell
Hi Herschel, I am unfamiliar with Hylafax. I don't think shell is going to cut it for your needs. What you may need is open process, write to process and read from process. Open process is kind of like opening a non-visible terminal, where the state of the program opened as a process persists throughout your read/write interactions with it. If you have a CLI client for hylafax for OS X Windows, then you can use that as the process to open. If the only CLI client you have for hylafax is on the server, then you will need to run remote sessions to the server. On OS X you could try 'talking' to the remote hylafax client via ssh opened via open process. If that works, you've got a start. On Windows you would then have to use something like plink (part of the Putty suite of ssh programs for windows). A final option might be to use the Expect program locally to talk to the remote hylafax client. I have never used Expect, but I imagine it would be more complex to use than open process + ssh. It's going to be convoluted, but it might work. Bernard On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 6:36 PM, Hershel Fisch hersh...@syp2u4c.com wrote: My server is FreeBSD or OSX, Client is OSX and Win.

Re: Edinburgh Conference DVDs
Richmond, if you undertake any interaction with RunRev that requires physical shipment, you have to expect very long delays.

AW: Edinburgh Conference DVDs
Ok, scanning all material from the conference, cutting and producing can actually take some time (shouldn't usually take soo long, but...) But what I don't like the most on this issue is that we have to pay in advance (me in October) and don't get a value for it over month. I think this is a not correct business behaviour with selling a simple DVD. I hope at least that we will get this year a good quality for our money and not that quality disaster as last year.

Re: How to invoke SendInput() Windows API. was Re: How do I paste into a different app?
Hi Bill,
i have done something similar. You can create a vbs script and let Rev run
this.
I am not very good at VBS, but the following lines show how to insert text into
an app.
___
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject(WScript.Shell)
WshShell.Run winword.exe
'the app is opened. If your app is already running, you do not need this line
WScript.Sleep 2000
'script stops for 2000 milliseconds to take sure, that the app is running
before further proceeding.
WshShell.AppActivate Dokument1 - Microsoft Word
'activates your already running app
'between the quotes you have to put the exact name of the app - as it is shown
in the title bar of that app
' winword also shows the document name in the title bar
WScript.Sleep 100
'script stops for 100 milliseconds'
WshShell.SendKeys This Text should be inserted
'the text between the quotes is sent to the app
WScript.Sleep 100
WshShell.SendKeys {enter}
'sends an enter to winword
WScript.Sleep 100
WshShell.SendKeys This Text should also be inserted
'the text between the quotes is sent to the app
Maybe Ken Ray could jump in, as he knows much more about VB and VBS.

It looks like Microsoft has deprecated the keybd_event API and suggests
using SendInput() instead.
Below is a sample of what needs to be sent. This is a C++ example. How do I
send this from Rev in Windows? It looks similar to what I do with
AppleScript on the Mac? While the send...as applescript commands are
documented in Rev's dictionary I don't see anything similar for Windows
APIs.
INPUT inp[2];
memset(inp,0,sizeof(INPUT));
inp[0].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
inp[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_UNICODE; // to avoid shift, and so on
inp[1] = inp[0];
inp[1].ki.dwFlags |= KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
for (LPCTSTR p=str; *p; p++) {
inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = *p;
SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));
}

For the future, I see that Jeanne DeVoto had submitted an RQCC request for the detailed volumes which could do what I need if implemented as described there: http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=101 In the meantime, it looks like I have some parsing to do and some homework to figure out the details of getting this info for Win Vista, Win 7, and Linux.

Re: Edinburgh Conference DVDs
Mark, I'm sure you realise, I was being ironic :-) The last time I bought conference DVDs from Runrev, they took 6 months to arrive. Most of my emails to them in that 6 month period asking for explanations went unanswered. After several months of waiting, my exasperation with them flared up with me expressing my displeasure on this list. I think they seriously let customers down by not setting expectations appropriately. If there is going to be a 3 month or 6 month wait, it is better to just tell people that up front. If an unforeseen problem crops up, send an email to the list. Sadly, years after me making this recommendation it appears they have still not learned how to simply re-set expectations with a brief email. Since that experience with them, I make myself assume that anything I buy from them requiring physical shipment has a delivery date 6 months hence. To be fair, I've almost never had any problem with any non-physical shipment. I hope they will soon let those waiting hear of a realistic shipment date. Maybe the person in charge of this has been off on long-term sick leave. I'm sure there is nothing underhand about the delay.

Re: on deleteGroup
It's an issue for anyone developing nested components. In my case I have a component that I want to distribute that creates some (global) data that I want to tidy up / clear when the component is deleted manually or by script. This is fine if the group is a top level group, but as i use layout groups and other forms of group nesting (say I want to use the group within a datagrid for instance) - then no message at all is sent - and so I cannot create this form of component without resorting to libraries or front/back scripts.

I had hoped there would be some reasonably simple way to get a list of mounted volumes that looks something like this: driveName mountPoint type ...where driveName is the name as it appears in the Finder, mountPoint is either / or Volumes/drivename, and type is either ATA, SCSI, CD/DVD, USB, etc. With what I've learned in this thread it seems I may be able to use output from system_profiler checked against output from AppleScript calls to obtain such a list. For the future, I see that Jeanne DeVoto had submitted an RQCC request for the detailed volumes which could do what I need if implemented as described there: http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=101 In the meantime, it looks like I have some parsing to do and some homework to figure out the details of getting this info for Win Vista, Win 7, and Linux.

AW: Strange issue on Windows Vista
Hi André, that sounds strange. As far as I know and I experiences it every day there are (almost) no differences between Vista and 7 in this part of the system architecture. So I would believe it is not a matter of Vista or 7, but of different configurations / user rights / settings, etc. The only strange thing I can see is the blank in your path before the exe, but that is probably a typo and even if not it wouldn't make a difference between Vista and 7 Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: use-revolution-boun...@lists.runrev.com [mailto:use-revolution- boun...@lists.runrev.com] Im Auftrag von Andre Rombauts Gesendet: Donnerstag, 7.

valentina, externals of libdatabase
I recently decided to take a fresh look at Valentina. As the licensed copy I had was quite old, I upgraded to 4.3 On Vista with RevEnt 4.0, I decided the easiest way to learn more about Valentina was using Trevor's LibDatabase library. (I know that it's kind of 'old hat' compared to SQL Yoga, but LibDatabase appeals to me). I'm kind of confused about how externals are supposed to be registered these days. I ran the Valentina installer, and it made no changes to the Revolution program directories (i.e. it did not add itself to the list of externals in the Externals text file, nor add the drivers to the folder containing database drivers). I got the example stack provided by Paradigma to work by adding the V4Rev.dll file to the external references of the Examples main stack. When it comes to making use of LibDatabase, the only way I could get it to work was by adding V4Rev.dll to the externals of the library). I was getting an error at at the point where LibDatabase calls Valentina_Init. It seems to me that the main stack of an application should be where the externals are set, not in a library stack. I am sure that if LibDatabase required a reference to any relevant externals, Trevor would have said so (he's a thorough kinda guy). Also, does anyone know how to get an error string back from Valentina?

Scale ImageSource?
Can anyone think of way to scale the imageSource representation of an image in a field without actually scaling the source image? I have a bunch of Web based thumbnail images that are larger than I would like, which I want to display in a field via imageSource links. The only way I can think to scale the imageSource display is to set the fileName of an intermediate image object to the URL of the thumbnail, scale the intermediate image, and then point the imageSource items in the field at the intermediate image object. But then I think I would need a separate intermediate image for every imageSource reference, which will eventually become unmanageable. I tried adding standard HTML size tags (width =, height =) to the HTMLtext of the field but these seem to be ignored. Any other ideas on how I might do this?

(Data Grid) How to get the setting of the dgHeaderAlignment[column] saved
