hi wim, i did not find any way to change the pattern, neither in the webstart nor in the download version (with vigilog-1.3-SNAPSHOT.jar renamed to replace vigilog-1.2.1.jar). but then i'm not sure if i realy have 1.3 working... - how can i set the pattern? - is there a way to see which version i am using?
best regards patrick ps: how is the executable searching the jars? i can delete vigilog-1.2.1.jar but the executable is still starting up ?!?!? > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Wim Deblauwe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 10.
