PDF doc name with revPrintText corrupted?
Hello, I am using revPrintText with Rev 3.5 on Win to print a fields text. When selecting a printer everything is fine. When selecting a pdf-printer Rev creates a pdf doc name from my stack title. My stack title has german Umlaute and they get changed to weired signs in the pdf doc name, as if there there is a problem with the Unicode or something like this. I tried to use the revPrintText parameter header text in the hope rev would take that header text as the doc name, but no effect. Does anybody knows, if I can change the doc name when printing to pdf or to change the charset or any other idea? I know that there is the new pdf printing in 4.5, but I have to fix it in 3.5 with old style.

Usually this doesn't matter, but in our current project it needs to be within a second or less. In the situations where I've used read from process this latency would make it a total non-starter. I think there is something unusual in your circumstances. I have just been working on a small module that uses read from process, and the same action launched from a command line takes 5 seconds, as it does if it was run using read from process. So your experience of latency is unusual. Maybe it is something to do with the startup time of the application you are opening as a process? I'm running on Vista here, but I've used read from process on OS X too with no noticeable delays I would try timing the same action using a command line script to see if there is really a latency with read from process.

Perhaps he is double-clicking on the button which would show then hide.

This stuff is like squeezing a balloon as when you press in one area it pops out in a different one. Unfortunately though the world runs on money and all the money goes thru SWIFT. My partner is leaving the UK on holiday and asked me what was the limit on taking cash out of the country. I told him that as far as I knew, there was no limit (amazing as that sounds -- I remember it being one of the first things that Thatcher did when she came to power). He told me that this couldn't be true. So I did a quick search and found out that things have drastically altered. Not the law, mind you -- AFAICT there is still technically no limit. But it turns out that people who have as little as £1000 in cash on them at airports are quizzed about it and required to show proof of where this money came from! It would not cross my mind if going for a 14+ day holiday to take less than £3000 cash with me. And it would also never have crossed my mind to make sure I could provide an audit trail too. Why would I take so much cash? Because I've been injured on holiday before and needed a lot of scans. And because I've been stranded abroad where my credit cards with over £30,000 of credit on them and which have never been compromised, were refused in ATMs, leaving me no option but to pay massive charges elsewhere to draw money out on my credit cards. It transpired that there had been so much ATM fraud in that city that foreign cards could not be used. When I took this up with my bank back home, every guarantee that the matter had been resolved (and that I could now use my cards) turned out to be worthless. When asked why we weren't warned about these things in the UK, they said if they did that the fraudsters would just move on. But that is exactly what they will do within hours of their fake ATM cards not working! So, one can't rely on ATMs, and if one takes anything other than pin money on a foreign vacation one should be prepared to provide a trail that can be audited. Unbelievable. The end result is that I now do a fraction of the travel that I used to do. And yet governments still take steps that ensure there is a drugs trade, they don't take any real measures against known terrorist groups, and most CCTV cameras fail to prevent or solve crimes.

Warren, I have a large text file (100,000,000+ records). I need to write a utility that removes the last record of the file. Is there anyway to just remove the last record without reading through the complete file with RunRev? This is totally untested but logically you could: 1. First get the size of the file on disk and approximate a character offset that should be only a few lines from the end of the file. 2. Then Open the file for read and read from file starting at the char offset you calculated to EOF into a var and delete the last line of the var. 3. Then Close the file and Open it again for write. 4. Now write the var to file at the same starting offset you read from. The reason you don't use open for update is that you want to open the file for write, so that whatever you write to the file replaces everything from the offset to the EOF. Update will replace chars and leave the last record at the end. What I don't know here is if internally the read/write from file at start still has to go through the entire file to calculate the starting offset, so I don't know how long this will take on a file of your size. But, at least, doing it this way won't require reading the whole file into memory and should result in the last line being deleted from the file in the quickest way available.

Hi, A map with pinpoints could be build by a community in Picasa, the google app that now allows shared photos each with its own geotags. The rub is that all would need to have a Google (gmail) account, or else open up an account for this purpose if another didn't upload the photo for you with the right tag. A sorta new Picasa web albums feature allows for a shared web album. Then folks could upload a photo and a geotag to that one album (need to have the right name/URL, of course). Then, those subscribed to the open web album, uploaded a photo to it, that album would present a nice visual effect with map of the world and images, etc. Some hand-holding may be required. A RunRev app could be built as well, either to interface with the shared Picasa album or else done on its own. Ta.

Re: Not quite [OT]: News about Revolution
Right. I was just having this argument, er, discussion on a history list I'm on; they made me think I was crazy so I spent a few minutes googling such things and found the most astonishing stuff (to me at least; the Brit history folks either denied the stuff outright or thought these things were a-okay): *A pilot plan, already in place in 2,000 UK private residences, to have ultimately up to 20,000 CCTVs installed in people's homes to ensure kids did their homework, parents fed them approved substances, etc. *The ~4 million CCTV surveillance systems already in place in the UK have image quality so poor as to utterly fail in 80% of criminal identification cases, and solving only 1 case per 1,000 cameras. *The infamous spy on your neighbor/go through their trash billboards. Not that we're a whole lot better in the US, as we saw yesterday... It was recently revealed that the FBI, in contravention to US law, literally used Post-It notes on teleco worker's workstations to illegally access US residents' phone records... :-/ Does anyone here remember the late 60s BBC program The Prisoner? Among its iconic elements were the ever-prominent placement of CCTVs to spy on people, on the street and in their residences. I'm not certain that anyone today would find that odd in the slightest, much less chillingly prescient. Police state, here we come :-( Judy On Tue, 9 Feb 2010, Bernard Devlin wrote: On Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 6:55 PM, Neal Campbell nealk...@gmail.com wrote: Its a US requirement and the deadline set by the Bush administration was years ago but many (most?) countries cannot afford to do it. I never figured out how they thought that if you were smart enough to do these horrible things you would have a real chip in your passport. This stuff is like squeezing a balloon as when you press in one area it pops out in a different one. Unfortunately though the world runs on money and all the money goes thru SWIFT. My partner is leaving the UK on holiday and asked me what was the limit on taking cash out of the country. I told him that as far as I knew, there was no limit (amazing as that sounds -- I remember it being one of the first things that Thatcher did when she came to power). He told me that this couldn't be true. So I did a quick search and found out that things have drastically altered. Not the law, mind you -- AFAICT there is still technically no limit. But it turns out that people who have as little as £1000 in cash on them at airports are quizzed about it and required to show proof of where this money came from! It would not cross my mind if going for a 14+ day holiday to take less than £3000 cash with me. And it would also never have crossed my mind to make sure I could provide an audit trail too. Why would I take so much cash? Because I've been injured on holiday before and needed a lot of scans. And because I've been stranded abroad where my credit cards with over £30,000 of credit on them and which have never been compromised, were refused in ATMs, leaving me no option but to pay massive charges elsewhere to draw money out on my credit cards. It transpired that there had been so much ATM fraud in that city that foreign cards could not be used. When I took this up with my bank back home, every guarantee that the matter had been resolved (and that I could now use my cards) turned out to be worthless. When asked why we weren't warned about these things in the UK, they said if they did that the fraudsters would just move on. But that is exactly what they will do within hours of their fake ATM cards not working! So, one can't rely on ATMs, and if one takes anything other than pin money on a foreign vacation one should be prepared to provide a trail that can be audited. Unbelievable. The end result is that I now do a fraction of the travel that I used to do. And yet governments still take steps that ensure there is a drugs trade, they don't take any real measures against known terrorist groups, and most CCTV cameras fail to prevent or solve crimes. Security theatre, as Bruce Schneier calls it.

Re: Reference (maybe Live) Distribution for Rev Linux
Peter Alcibiades wrote: Two problems. First problem is in my Debian install, and here the problem is any sort of printing. Print card, print field, page setup. As a for example, create a field, select it (this is in the IDE) and select Print from the file menu. There seem not to be any printers. But every other application bar none can print, and not only do I have a physical printer configured, I have cupspdf, so I could print to pdf if it could see it or any of the printers that are set up. Second problem was on Mandriva in another install. Here it was able to find the printer, and to print to it, but it truncated the file, and it was impossible to change the settings on the printer, for instance change the orientation or change the percentage zoom, to fit it all in. If I recall correctly, the settings were there, they just had no effect, it came out the same no matter what you put them to. Once the RQCC # was posted here I checked it out under Ubuntu 9.1. There I was able to use revPrintField to print to a .ps file, after changing the page size from the default A4 to US Letter. I also checked using answer printer and answer page setup directly; both seem to work okay in that distro, at least partially: I've found that while I can change page sizes, any change to orientation (Landscape vs Portrait) seems to have no effect. I have not yet printed to a physical printer (I use mine only a few times a year); I'll try that soon. Could this issue be specific to KDE? To the others here: Can you please test this on whatever Linux distros you're using and add your comments to the RQCC report for this so we can pin this down: http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=6478 Thanks for you help on this. PS - An interesting side note in my testing: While using Rev under Ubuntu I found that opening the Dictionary slowed everything in Rev to a painful crawl. So I installed MetaCard there, and its Dictionary works very quickly with no adverse effect on overall performance as there was with Rev's. The main difference between Rev's Dictionary and MC's is that MC's doesn't parse XML files from disk, but instead has everything included as cards in a single stack (in modern systems we've seen no memory limitation which would require otherwise; stacks work fine for the Dictionary even with 1600 cards; know the engine, trust the engine, use the engine g). There are two things that come into play with the Rev Dictionary: file I/O, and XML parsing. I know from my work with WebMerge on Linux that file I/O there seems efficient, on par with the other platforms. So this has me wondering if the XML externals for Linux need a bit of a touch-up. Any of you using the XML lib with Rev on Linux? I tend to parse XML in script so I've not yet used it myself, and it would be good to confirm this hunch before I report it.

After double clicking my App with admin rights and also with right mouse as admin just nothing happens, no window opens, no error message, no task running. The only thing is the windows event log, which tells about a very generic Application Error, EventID 1000. Up to now, my two rev apps are the only one with this strange behaviour. Both Apps run up to today on all other Win7 machines without any probs. After going behind this mysterious behaviour whole day long, googling, trying to switch off the virus scan and windows firewall I am not sure, if it is an issue of Rev or any other component on his machine. My suspicion is that it is related to the UAC or any other permission thing, but he has switched off his UAC to the lowest level, and I don't know what to check for now.

Re: Reading/Deleting Last Line Of File
I don't think this will work, Jim. If you open a file for write, then it erases the entire content of the file first as the docs say (emphasis added)... The file to write to must be opened first with the open file command, and the mode the file was opened in must be write, append, or update. If the file is not open or is open read-only, the result function is set to File is not open for write.. If the file was opened in write mode, the write to file command completely *replaces the file contents from the start.* For example, if the file originally contains ABC, and you write 1 to it, after the write to file command is executed the file contains 1. And as you say, open for update does not allow you to truncate the file. The standard C library has a way to do it, and there is a Unix shell command - but not afaict a Windows shell utility to do it. -- Alex Jim Bufalini wrote: Warren, I have a large text file (100,000,000+ records).

This is totally untested but logically you could: 1. First get the size of the file on disk and approximate a character offset that should be only a few lines from the end of the file. 2. Then Open the file for read and read from file starting at the char offset you calculated to EOF into a var and delete the last line of the var. 3. Then Close the file and Open it again for write. 4. Now write the var to file at the same starting offset you read from. The reason you don't use open for update is that you want to open the file for write, so that whatever you write to the file replaces everything from the offset to the EOF. Update will replace chars and leave the last record at the end. What I don't know here is if internally the read/write from file at start still has to go through the entire file to calculate the starting offset, so I don't know how long this will take on a file of your size.

Alex, It does work, just not exactly how I said to do it. ;-) You have to open the file for append*, instead of *write* and then write at a byte offset. So: open file filename for append write This is the EOF to file fileName at close file filename I just tested on an approximately 10kb text file and if is 5000, the This is the EOF is written starting at byte 5000 and the file is terminated at the end of that string and the file data before byte 5000 is retained in the file and the file changes to an approximately a 5KB file, so the EOF is moved and the file is truncated.

I don't buy the excuse that some kind of improvement makes Rev 4 unable to do as good a job with an icon as Rev 3.5 did. That is not an improvement in my mind, and I hope that the Rev developers don't think so either. It doesn't bother me at all. Icons are an external resource and we've always needed a third-party app to create them. The old way of embedding Windows icons was based on Windows 95 and had some unusual requirements even back then. I'm sure you've bumped up against the restrictions for icon size, color depth, number of icons in the file, etc. With Vista and Win 7 it became apparent that the file structure needed to be updated so that Rev apps would function like any other on that platform and comply with standards. So all that is required is that you use a different icon editor than the one you used to use, one that creates icons that fit with today's file structure. I don't know what you were using before, but for now there aren't many Mac alternatives. If someday one appears, you can use that one and not need a Windows machine. There were some good reasons to change the file structure, including the ability to certify your Windows apps with a manifest, just like any other Windows program. That's necessary in today's more restrictive Windows environment. Vista introduced some stiff security measures and your app is more likely to fail if it doesn't comply. That change doesn't mean that Rev is deficient -- in fact, it indicates that Rev is keeping up with the OS -- but it does mean you need to change the icon editor you use.

Properly formatted large numbers
Dear Listers I'm working on some statistical simulations and regularly get output numbers with anything from 1 to 7 digits. They are hard to read when they don't have the conventional commas separating the thousands and millions. I've written a simple function that does the comma formatting for me but it mucks up sorting. Of course. (I'm using a datagrid to display the results and live sorting is really handy.) Does anyone have an easy way to deal with this? I'm tempted to use a fixed pitch font so that larger numbers always look longer, but that would be a kludgey workaround.

I do have a splash screen that loads , waits, and then goes to the next card and it doesn't crash. but any subsequent GO commands crash. What are the other issues that people are having with the GO command??? I would like to either track this down or find a workaround.

RE: Problem Updating mySQL Record
Hi Andrew, It's difficult to look at long code in an email especially when lines are wrapped. So you may want to make available a sample stack that contains enough code that demonstrates what isn't working for download (don't try to attach it to an email to this list). In this case it should also have the schema of the DB. Also, for me to really look at code, I like to see explicit variable declaration (my preference). But, just looking through the below (and I assume you copied this right out of your editor) there are a couple of anomalies that I see: 1. *if tCropSharePercent is empty then put N/A into tCropSharePercent* Is this column typed as numeric in your DB schema? 2. *put tleasepayments into pTable* Shouldn't this be the opposite? 3. Your construction of pSetQuery and pConditions together with the comment lines are difficult to read in this email. Try using the *format* command and wrap your lines using the \ char, even in a stack script. This will allow more people to easily read, jump in, and pick up on what may be the problem and you will get the answer you need from this list a lot quicker.

Re: Properly formatted large numbers
Can you have two columns - one formatted, one not - and somehow apply the sort to the unformatted column. I guess the unformatted column would have to be of invisible and you'd need to have some way of trapping the selection of the column header. You might need Trevor's help there. Terry...

They are hard to read when they don't have the conventional commas separating the thousands and millions. I've written a simple function that does the comma formatting for me but it mucks up sorting. Of course. (I'm using a datagrid to display the results and live sorting is really handy.) Does anyone have an easy way to deal with this? I'm tempted to use a fixed pitch font so that larger numbers always look longer, but that would be a kludgey workaround. (I note that in OSX the Finder puts separators in the correct places in large numbers using the settings of the International System Preferences.)

Every idea or advice is welcome. Can I just clarify your problem? You want to be able to search for phrases (partial sentences, possibly with boolean logic) inside the text stored in the xml nodes of the article, once the article is found in the index?
