Re: Turning off that bloody nagscreen on bittorrent!
Actually, the only popup nag screen it ever gets to is loading the
browser then seems to gag there. Not sure why, but it does. Probubly
why I haven't been able to get it to be quiet by clicking on the dialog box.

Here's my guess:
Look at btdownloadgui.py near line 265. You'll see something like:
def next(params, d, doneflag):
try:
p = join(split(argv[0])[0], 'donated')
if not exists(p) and long(time()) % 3 == 0:
open_new('http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/donate.html')
dlg = wxMessageDialog(d.frame, 'BitTorrent is Donation
supported software. ' +
Now, it appears that the p variable will end up looking something like:
bdonatedtdonatedddonatedodonatedwdonatedndonatedldonatedodonatedadonatedddonatedgdonatedudonatedidonated.donatedpdonatedy
(btdownloadgui.py with donated inserted between each character). If a
file by that name exists (what directory? I have no idea!), then you
won't
get the nag screen.
Alternatively, would it be so hard to click Yes, I've donated and
let the
program create the file itself?

Nevermind. Friend found out how to fix it so it stops nagging
me. The dialog was gagging because of a glitch on the system. Once that
was fixed the BT client worked fine. :)

Turning off that bloody nagscreen on bittorrent!
Anyone know if there's a special switch or something on the Freebsd BitTorrent port or some way to go inside the python script and shut off that bloody nag stuff he's got built into his new version 3.3? It's driving me up a freaking wall. It loads, gags the client, displays the give me money browser window, then leaves me stuck with a dead process I can't kill cause I can't tell if it's one I wanna keep or not, and I have to try 2-3 times or more to open one stupid torrent file because the writer is bound and determined to make me donate to him in order to stop it. Can someone tell me how to disable that so I can download via BT in peace like with the old version? Either that or give me the link to the old package so I can return to using that. New features or not, this nag screen stuff is pathetically annoying. Asking on first time use would be ok, but not every FREAKING time. Sorry for the rant guys. This has my feathers a bit flustered. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
