Re: specialFolderPath
Hi Charles, Thanks Devin and Mark, Your suggestions solved my problem. But I do have one question: if I do use slash will this also work on Windows? Do I need to specify a back slash for Windows? Rev uses always the SLASH / as a path delimiter internaylly on ALL platforms! You only need to use the backslash if you use a pathname inside of a SHELL command on windows.

Re: How do I use substrings in regular expressions?
Terry, Here's a somewhat generic script to find any HTML element by its ID and make the replacements you need. It doesn't use regex.

In the above script the ID remains the same. That is probably a good idea since the ID is embedded in the jpg name and it would be confusing to have an ID attribute that was different. You'll need an ID to manipulate it with javascript (which I'm sure you know). Hope this at least gives you something to think about.

Re: Replace command
Howdy folks! This is just to follow up with a gigantic THANK YOU! to all who have replied to my message... After 2-3 days now of working with the wordOffset function and a lot of head scratching to figure out how to implement it into my code properly, I finally found the perfect combination this morning. :-) I ended up building a test stack that represents all of the different combination's of data that I'm working with and it now looks to be a complete success. (believe me that I had some very serious doubts for awhile) I should be able to work the sample code into my application this afternoon and move on to the finish line with this little baby. Again, thank you very much for the great help and patience where required!

RegEx is convenient, but it's able to offer that convenience usually at the price of performance. It almost always takes more lines of code to do the same thing with chunk expressions as one can do in RegEx, but is often much faster.

Obviously you have: 1. Automatic updates which is not a great idea, the most I recommend is Download and notify. 2. It probably installed IE8 in the update which has, by default, check whether its the default browser everytime it starts up. You can go into the options and turn this check off. 73 Neal Campbell Abroham Neal Software www.abrohamnealsoftware.com (540) 645 5394 NEW PHONE NUMBER Amateur Radio: K3NC Blog: http://www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/blog/ DXBase bug reports: email to ca...@dxbase.fogbugz.com Abroham Neal forums: http:/www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/community/ On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 11:24 AM, Wilhelm Sanke sa...@hrz.uni-kassel.dewrote: Since this morning - after 2 automatic updates on my WindowsXP PC, which took place when I shut my computer down after the first session - I am constantly being pestered by the Microsoft Internet Explorer popping up when I connect to the net.

So, I'm a Mac user, and I very often debate as to whether or not I want to deal with these sorts of Windows issues over the Mac ones (yes, we Mac users also have issues ;-)). As for your issue, I think you can just go into the Internet Explorer options and under advanced (iirc) is an option for Check to see if IE is your default browser.

OT: MacPro is playing up - any tips?
Today my MacPro suddenly decided to freeze - with pretty green stipes and pink squares all over the screen. Restarting only worked after resetting PRAM and rebooting in Single User Mode. It's been a very long time since I've had a problem with an OSX machine - so I am wandering if there are any diagnostic tips out there? If feels like an Xwindows / video card issue - but I am wandering what steps I can take to help diagnose the issue?

I had almost the exact same thing a year ago and ultimately it would not boot at all (no chime, nothing). From what I understand, if it doesn't chime, it didn't pass the POST routine on the motherboard. You are right on, it turned out that the graphics card had burned out.

Re: OT: MacPro is playing up - any tips?
Hi Dave. If you take it to Apple and complain that the video card died just over a year they may take care of you. Sometimes they have extended warranty programs that you wouldn't know about unless you go ask. If you got the Applecare Protection Plan then it is still under warranty and you should DEFINITELY take it into Apple.

specialfolderpath(preferences) on windows
Hello folks, I wrote script to save a text file to specialFolderPath(Preferences) and then reference it on subsequent startups. I had planned to write an alternative bit of script for Windows using specialFolderPath(26), but hadn't quite got round to it. I am using Rev Studio on Mac, so I have to build check, build check etc. on Windows. I built to check something else on Windows, only to find that the specialFolderPath(Preferences) script seems to be working. (It's usually things I expect to work, not working, not the other way around, so this was an unusual experience). The file was saved, and found on subsequent startups. So is specialFolderPath(Preferences) cross platform? If so, where is it? I tried searching for my file but couldn't find it.

Re: How do I use substrings in regular expressions?
Hi Michael, I agree with Richard and want to thank you for the script. I don't really demand a regex; I just need to replace the SWF reference with the appropriate JPG. I used a regex because I often use GREP in BBEdit. But apparently the implementation in runrev is a bit different. It should be based on PCRE, and that supports this behavior. Might this be a little bug? Whatever the case, I am helped! You noticed the ID was gone in the IMG tag with the JPG. I removed it because I didn't need it. But it's cool with me if it stays in. Terry Michael Kann wrote: Here's a somewhat generic script to find any HTML element by its ID and make the replacements you need. It doesn't use regex. I apologize. No need to apologize. RegEx is convenient, but it's able to offer that convenience usually at the price of performance. It almost always takes more lines of code to do the same thing with chunk expressions as one can do in RegEx, but is often much faster. And when someone else writes the code, as you've done here, you get both speed and convenience. :) -- Richard Gaskin ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: How to generate a runnable Mac standalone from Windows
Hi Kay, I agree with some of your comments, but in Richard's case it is irrelevant, as he specifically wants his installer to install both flavours to the same destination - such as a USB flash drive Unfortunately most USB drives are formatted in FAT or FAT32 - can these file systems even recognise the executable bit? How many car owners don't know how to test the tyre pressure. (or even know that you are supposed to!) There is water in the engine? - where? etc. etc. Computer users are just the same - What do you mean I shouldn't have washed it? You never told me there was a switch at the back! etc. etc. Brains are an optional extra, no matter what people are doing. Douglas On 19/03/2010 04:08, Kay C Lan wrote: Sorry, taking your thread off topic here, this probably should be directed to your blog, but I see this simply as how experienced do you want to make your users. Yes I am an experienced Mac user so I'm thoroughly happy with DMGs, I like to be involved in where I put things on my Mac, and IMO, I think newbies should become involved as well. Yes, a little confusing to start with, but not too difficult to master. To take this way OT, let me liken it to Toyota's stuck on full throttle. Some people think the deaths cause by these incidents were the result of faulty engineering. I know the deaths were caused by poor driver training. You see, far too many people put their car in Drive and then their mind in Neutral. Not one of these accidents would have occurred if the person was driving a Manual car. A manual driver would have engaged the clutch and/or selected Neutral, and instinctive manoeuver. Automatic drivers seem to forget that they have a means to disconnect the engine from the wheels. Also, both have the ability to turn the ignition off, but neither are likely to think of this as they haven't been taught it - hazardous as you need to remember the steering lock and only do it on straight roads. So, to me, Installers are like Automatics, loved by masses but inevitably create an 'mind in Neutral' situation where the vast majority of users really haven't got a clue. Is the rampant spread of viruses, spam and phishing the result of vastly intelligent instigators or the Pavlov's automatic response of a Users who's mind is in Neutral? IMO, computers are far more important to us than the car. Computers are more and more intricately entwined into almost all aspects of our lives. It's a fine line, because they are so entwined, they need to be easy, intuitive, productive, not frustrating. But because the are so entwined I feel we need to be somewhat involved in the process. If you can't figure out how to open a DMG and drag an App to the folder or your desire, how are you ever going to get your head around running back-up and archive software and actually restoring a single corrupted file? DMG is the Mac standard, and whilst it might not be the best solution, if everyone does the same thing, it shouldn't take long to catch the drift. On the other hand, I'm highly skeptical of files that don't install the DMG way or use the Mac Installer. I've Trashed Apps straight off the bat that have installed themselves. Or, to put it another way, if the Automatic starts misbehaving, I treat it like a Manual and force it into the gear I want. If a person really can't grasp the concept of opening a DMG, and dragging the file to a folder after 3 or 4 attempts, then I guess I wouldn't be surprised if they send a large sum money to an Nigerian Bank account after receiving an important email because it was all in CAPITALS. (I just note that Jeffery posted to the list a possible bogus email doing the rounds. Obviously doesn't open emails with his brain in Neutral and I bet he knows how to work a DMG) Just my Mac Dollars worth :-) PS Should Toyota's be better engineered - Yes PPS Should drivers be better trained - Absolutely PPPS Strange how there can only be one Neutral, your Brain or the Transmission, but never both. S In my Fantasy World all drivers would be trained and tested on bringing a car to a halt after suffering a brake failure at 55 mph. ___ ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Entering put specialFolderPath(Preferences) in the message box returns nothing in Windows. So your file would have gone into the root if you added a slash and your file name. On advice from folks in the forum, I use specialFolderPath(asup) on the Mac, and specialFolderPath(26) on Windows, and append a slash and my app name, to get the name of the folder to put my app preferences in.

Re: [slightly OT] Off for a couple of days
My iPad app was designed in RunRev (as are most of my ideas) and then built in ObjC in xCode with xib files done in Interface Builder. The XML/PLIST creator and editor for all of the pList files was built in RunRev as well. The logic is pretty much the same but the syntax of course is very different. I use pLists for the databases (4 of them) and in my ObjC code I use pretty much the same switch/case and if/thens and repeats. It is the API calls that are very different. The biggest problem I have coming from RunRev is Global variables (I have to use NSUserDefaults for a lot of my needs) and poor string manipulation(string to integer, string to methods, parameters, etc., what I would do for 'put word 2 to -1 of it into gVariable'). I don't know how many times I have said 'If only this were in rev! I would know just the quickest way to do this and be done by now.' Still this entire app was thought out, designed, built and debugged and tested in under four weeks, just in time for inclusion in the app store grand opening. That's pretty cool. My next app will be designed in RunRev and then I will build it in ObjC (unless RevMobile is done) and will have a RunRev backend on my on-rev server. I foresee many levels of integration like that in my apps, no matter what happens with RevMobile.

revMail in Windows
Hi All, I have just realised that under Windows, revMail will not send emails over a certain size. The limit seems to vary depending on the number of lines as well as the number of characters, but it seems that you cannot rely on revMail to create an email with more than 1000 characters. Any when it fails, there is no error, just nothing happens. This means that my Windows users have been thinking they are sending bug reports and I have not been getting them for about the last year. Bug 7995 http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=7995 was filed as a blocker on 24th April 2009 and is still labelled as new with no comments from anyone at RunRev. I have tried constructing my own mailto URL and using both launch URL and revGoURL to activate that. All these options work fine on my Mac, it's just Windows that causes the problems. I keep archived copies of old versions of Rev, and in 2.8.1, revMail worked OK. All versions since then are displaying this problem. I can't get all the data I need in my bug report down to 1000 characters, so does anyone know of an alternative way to send emails on Windows? I want it to go through the user's mail client as I ask them to supply additional information and attach screen shots. Otherwise I could use an irev script on my web site.

Re: revMail in Windows
Sarah- Well, that *is* depressing. I just tried out a test stack and out of 29000 chars in a text variable, 247 of them were put into the body of an email using rev 4.0. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Last I asked, which was quite a while ago, RR said they'd all been sent, all the orders were completed. Better check with support, I guess.
