2004-06-21 Thread David Gerber
Seems like some people didn't get it. Let's try again.

- in 2000, we announced MorphOS (Ralph Schmidt, Frank Mariak, etc.. and *me*)
- we tried to sort out a deal with Amiga Inc. to have missing components
- the deal was aborded by HP and Hyperion because it didn't fit *their* 
interests
- we have been accused of using stolen sourcecode which is a *plain lie*
- we have been constantly dragged down with qualifications such as hobby OS, 
legally dubious, etc.. by some infamous belgian lawyer wannabe

So now I ask again. Why should I support these people?

On a lot of places. Try to find out what happens if you specify a table
WIDTH=200% for example.

 If you have suggestions hand them over to the w3c for inclusion in the

It's too late. Browsers already defined the standard themselves (aka
MSIE defined the standard) and websites all over the world already
started using them.

  Strictly following the w3c HTML specs doesn't work because they leave
  room for different interpretations.

 Where?

See above. There are others, like the IMGIMG vs IMGnbsp;IMG.
Where it's unsure if the first one must be vertically layouted.
I think it shouldn't but MSIE does, so websites do expect it.

 And what is wrong with room for interpretation?

It gives different result for the layout of the page depending on
what browser you use.

 Take this room (layout) and let the client user do their
 interpretation.

Then the user complains because the site looks weird or is unuseable.

 certainly Iprobe seems to function on ADSL far bettern than the other Browsers i

 would be nice to get the most out of my connection on voyager. perhaps with network 
given more priority than the layouter. although if its all on the same thread that 
would be tricky

V uses 5 processes. Main task, dns resolver, network, image decoder
and cache prune (when necessary). Those are the priorities:

- main task: 0 (inherited)
- dns: 2
- network: 0
- imgdecode: -1
- prune: -20

and if you run Executive it uses nice values:

- main task: 0 (default)
- dns: -20
- network: -20
- imgdecode: 15
- prune: 20

(see Executive docs to see what nice values are).

Though in your case it's probably not priority related. The bottleneck
being the main task. Even after the layouting is finished
scrolling the page is slow and V becomes slugish. I identified the
problem a while ago but fixing it will break stuff so I didn't
have time for it yet.

Autocleanup turned on ? All/Leave failures/never ? Do the problem happen during

Shift-click downloads to the download directory set in V since it bypasses any

 So back one version I would click on a .zip file, and it would download to
 the other directory.

If this doesn't work, it means the server doesn't have its mimetype configured
correctly. I've seen a lot of servers send zip files as application/octet-stream
mimetype.

 Shift Click and the file would go to my Amiga default directory.
 
 Now when I click on a .zip file, Voyager asks me what to do with it.

Yep, check the prefs in mimeprefs.

There should be some docs explaining all this. Someone offered to make
them 2 years ago. He still didn't start I think :)

 Is it normal that any program eats chip ram as I own gfx card and WBCtrl

I don't know what WBCtrl is but programs eating chip ram is perfectly normal.
Many parts of the OS use hardcoded chip ram allocations (intuition gadgets,
icon stuff, etc..) but they are quite small so for a normal use you shouldn't
get more than 200-300 kB chip ram used. V shouldn't use chip ram on gfx card
systems (there's no explicit chip mem allocation, except for the prefs
imagery on the 68k version but that's a few kB only). If it uses a lot of
chipmem and you have enough (not too fragmented) fast ram, then there's a
problem.

 Bullshit.   textinput.mcc   works   fine   without  
 vapor_toolkit.library

Wrong. It won't start if the library is not installed.

 (vapor_toolkit  is  not  a  part  of  YAM  distribution, and right now
 I'm
 working offline on YAM without vapor_toolkit.library in my libs:).

What has YAM to do with vapor_toolkit.library ? It doesn't even
use Textinput AFAIK.

 So question as most precise as I can ask:
 
 - Is that library is responsible for sending data through network to
 vapor
   center with informations about my machine or software (I know that
 Vapor
   products  sends some informations to vapor center, but I' mot sure
 which
   part of software is responsible for that).

vapor_toolkit.library does not send data anywhere (it doesn't even
have network code). vapor_update.library does though.

 - What data was sent to vapor center, and why the hell  you  don't 
 inform
   about that fact in any place in any documentation??? User have got
 right
   to  know  what  happened  when they use your software (for example
 Pawel
   Filipczak in manual to TaskiSMS describes exactly what datas is sent 
 to
   him,  and what will be done with these datas, and of course give
 reasons
   of that).

Any installer will tell you what vapor_update.library is supposed to do.
There's a quote from V's installer:

vapor_update.library: If installed every Vapor app will automagically check for 
updates by querying the Vapor server via Internet. You will be informed and offered 
automatic downloading if there is an update.

vapor_update.library sends an UDP packet to update.vapor.com which contains
a number used to identify the application (Voyager, MD2, etc..), the version
of the application and the version string. Nothing else. The server sends
back a reply and VUP can either display a MOTD or that a new version of the
application is available and offer you to download it.

You can disable all that by simply deleting vapor_update.library. The
library is optional.

  These are public MUI classes. Anyone can use them..

 So why they calls to vapor_toolkit (especially as you said textinput.
 This
 MCC works without VTL without any problems)???

You probably tried without rebooting. In that case the library might
still be in memory.

Makes them cool is also a strange definition but I'd say that I am
of course interested to be able to run true PPC software. This is all about
technology, MorphOS is the only thing that allows one to do that.

 Because it makes their software better?

Yes. What's wrong in having Voyager run several times faster ? What's wrong
with trying to put some life in an existing market (PowerUP boards *do*
exist) and support the bplan machine which will be released in a few months
?

BTW, we still support 68k builds and it's not going to end tomorrow. I even
spend time making sure the 68k build is ok and improving it for specific
things (eg. 64-bit computation support for SAS/C). It's not fanatism, it's
common sense.

2001-07-30 Thread David Gerber


  Have you tried unscheduling V (TASK+CHILDTASKS) for a while to see
  if it makes a massive difference?

 i test voyager on a multitude of amigas from 020-060 some with executive
 some without. i dont notice any real speed difference when running under
 executive, as it gives main priority to the focussed window (in my
 configuration).

Executive running or not shouldn't matter. Besides, V has dedicated
Executive support for optimizing the relative task priorities.
So the problem is somewhere else.

 No you're not, same here. Think it's because it isn't optimized yet and has
 all the debug code in it.

Slow when doing what ? Layouting ? Scrolling ? Please try to describe as
accurately as possible. Is the mouse pointer freezing ? There's no debug
code in public versions. 68k version is compiled without optimizations

 How about satisfying everyone by having a preferences option to set the

Did you set the prefs to IE ?

And I can imagine a lot of others. Unfortunately, the majority of
websites are designed for IE these days and it's rare to have a
website that doesn't work with it (and if it does, be sure the webmaster
will fix it quickly otherwise he loses a significant audience).

You could strictly stick to the standard as published by the w3c but
there are a lot of things not properly covered by it and which leave
room for several interpretations. As Olli said, the web would be a better
place if Mosaic throwed a syntax error on every bogosity found on
a webpage in those early days.

If you want to check if a webpage is standard compliant (if that means
anything), don't use V but http://validator.w3.org/ which was designed
for that.

Examples ? Let's try a random webpage:

TABLE BORDER=1 WIDTH=100%
   ^
Error: an attribute value must be quoted if it contains 
any character other than letters (A-Za-z), digits, hyphens, 
and periods; use quotes if in doubt (explanation...)

Let's ignore attribute values without quotes then. Oops, lot of sites
break.

/UL
  ^
Error: end tag for LI omitted; possible causes include a missing 
end tag, improper nesting of elements, or use of an element where 
it is not allowed 

Oops, disabling that breaks a lot of websites too.

Error: end tag for P omitted; possible causes include a missing 
end tag, improper nesting of elements, or use of an element where 
it is not allowed (explanation...)

Disable it ? Bad idea..

And so on.. Tried writing a page by hand ? If you follow all the rules
of the validator you end up spending quite some time closing tags no
browser cares about (because it's unecessary to care about them, at
a programming point of view and at a practical point of view).

So I'm not convinced that adding options to be stript, emulate browser
A, emulate browser B, etc.. would be a good idea. Better try to display
and handle properly as much web pages as possible which is, after all,
what people expect a browser to do.

Because you have to add it yourself. Add the function 'CopyToClip' to

It might be an Amiga standard but it's not well suited for pictures

Why isn't it ? It works, and quite nicely. It's also the only way to

 Is it too difficult to program a warpos version of image decoders? at least

It makes no sense to do *progressive* image decoders on a dual-CPU system

 Am I wrong or is there a bug in the Voyager³ 3.3.104beta 68K ?

That's a typical problem with CManager. The easiest way to solve it is to
install CManager standalone. It can be found on any VaporWare mirror.

 I believe that MorphOS solves this problem, because Memory protection is

 But I don't know if the memory protection is implented in current beta.

 If I'm wrong correct me.

Quark does offer memory protection but currently the Amiga emulation task
plays the role of a big driver which means it cannot be isolated yet. This
will change in the future as the Quark side improves.

V gives back the ram too but it uses some libraries (ssl, image

They stay in ram until more memory is needed, type 'avail flush' in

 Question: How does NetInfo find the IP address if Voyager cannot?

 TCP stack is MiamiDx, OS is AmigaOS 3.9
 The problem is the same on 2 different ISPs.

This is because of the BIND disease. It takes a query, checks if it's in the
cache. If it isn't it drops it, starts a background sysquery and expects to
have it in the cache the next time the client resends the query.

So in your case, typing the IP again in netinfo redoes a query which BIND
managed to cache by then.

  IMHO the rendering of a page before its contents have been completely
  read is an important feature of web browsers which should stay that
  way.

 You could have it that way if you want.  I'm suggesting that this should
 be optional.  As downloads get faster (ADSL, cable, etc) there will be
 less and less need to watch the rendering engine doing its stuff while
 you wait, or try to read text which keeps jumping around every time a
 new image arrives.

 I suppose everyone here is tech oriented.  But most web users are not.

The main problem with the scheme of waiting for the complete data to arrive
before displaying the page is that it's too common that it won't work
correctly. On many web sites, you have adverts pointing to other websites
and if one of the picture doesn't come you can wait a long time for the page
to render. There's also the problem that some sites don't specify the size
of the pictures (yes, even in 2000). The new rendering engine of V is
designed to handle incremental rendering whenever possible (but this is
perfectible of course, there are still some quirks left). V also tries to
optimize the rendering depending on the speed at which the data comes in.

  do you know "netcaptor"? (www.netcaptor.com)

 I think David mentioned it a while back. Then we all mentioned
 that they have patent pending on that technique (look at the
 small print on the site ;)

Patent pending ? What are they going to patent next ? Mouse clicks ? Anyway,
this feature is planned (in fact, most of the code is already here).

Cool. At last it stops that stupid idea some people had that I did put anti
warpos code in VFlash and that the requirement of the latest version of
ppc.library was some conspiracy against warpos.

.plan updated.

 the same happens here 8-((

 please fix this.

Yeah, Olli gone to bed and then I notice it doesn't work. The bug was really
evil but I managed to fix it. V 3.3.50 uploaded to ftp.vapor.com,
ftp.meanmachine.ch and the UK mirror right now.

Sigh, I "wake up" in 2 hours... Tomorrow will be a zombie day.

 1. Where can I find a desciption of Voyagers Arexx interface?

On my hd, but it won't be released now. We don't want people to start
writing arexx scripts then seeing how it breaks with a later version
because some commands changed, it is still a work in progress.

 2. According to the guy who wrote RexxWget Voygar doesn't have an arexx
 command to return the current URL(!!!), but is is possible to parse the url
 as a place holder if you set a buttons action to be run an arexx script?
 
 eg in the command panel something like
 
 dosomethingclever.rexx %u
 
 though %u doesn't work.

Not in the last public alpha. This will be added later. Almost everything
will be arexxable.

 I wasn't amused when the Resume feature overwrote a B-I-G file, despite
 selecting Resume!

Resume overwrites a file when the server doesn't support resume. Well,
perhaps I'll put a requester there.

 hmm.. something.. has changed every button in my toolbar... so that

 I guess I could blame the beta... or ?

Yes, you have to change back the actions of the button because the beta has
another format. It was never designed to go back to a previous version :)

 difficult to snapshot the screen size and position without it. Anyone have a
 clue. My MUI libs are supposed to all be the latest available... Info
 appreciated.

Not yet implemented. I have to redo the window numbering system. Also the
background backfilling is not finished, giving slow scrollings. Context
menus aren't there, nor bookmarks, etc...

This alpha is mainly to get an impression of the new layout system.

 Yes, this can definitely be the cause of some problems if one doesn't know
 what applications use which libraries. Another cause of problems is that
 some libraries themselves open libraries, so to flush such a library it
 might be necessary to run "avail flush" more than once.

Or there's flushlib on the voyager-sdk archive which takes care of that.

Oops. There's some conversion to the new button format in the new V. But
if you save the prefs and you go back to a previous V, it won't work.

To solve this, you have to go the the prefs/toolbar and put back the correct
action for the buttons, then save the prefs again.
