Not  quite. I'm negativelly surprised by some polish TV stations. Some
informations  are  old,  according  to CNN or CNBC, or they don't even
appear!  So I watch NBC, CNBC, CNN, EuroNews RTL II and RTL II Austria
to  know  what's  going  on.  I do study Polish Internet also, because
informations there are really fresh (If You know polish, ofcourse).

No, it is not. Just think. First of all people showned on TV were kids
in  most. Second of all tell me, how do kids act when they see camera?
The make some monkey acts. That's fact. I didn't hear any anti America
slogans,  but  some  people tells there were some. Anyway, You can not
judge totally different people using Your measure. That's how Indians,
Astecs,  Inkas died... Different civilisations are always defficult to
understand.

What  You  consider  to  be  normal can be difficult to uderstrand for
foreigners.  And  vice  versa.  Islam  is  not an evil religion. It is
religion  of  peace.  But  there  are  some  insane  individuals,  who
interprete  Koran  in some different, mysterious way. Do You know what
Inquisition  was?  Christians  treat  murder  as sin. But they used to
kill.  Look  whats  going  on  between two religions. Kids can't go to
school, because they have to trespass some unpleasant zone.

Every  religion,  believe  couses  devastation.  Why? Because there is
always some 180deg different one.

Hello!

As an answer for Your letter, I would like to write:

[cut]
> Is there any way I can install two versions of TB on my computer??
> Without causing a lot of conflicts??

Yes  and  no. You may install two versions in different directories, but
they will use the same directory to store files (mails, account configs,
etc).  However  You  can  export  one  branch  from  Your registry after
installing  first  version  (You can do it now, because You already have
Bat!   installed)  than  install  second  one  in  different  directory,
selecting  different  directory  to store mail. Than You export the same
branch,  but  it's going to be different in data. Now, to make Your life
easier  (but  is it easier with two Bat!s? ;) Create some .bat files, so
starting  one  You instert Your [first].reg to registry and run Bat, and
another  one  to  instert  second  registry info and start different Bat
version.

O  my! It's even more complicated than I thought. And I don't know is it
clear enough to understand :)))

Ok, You're right, but it's right-to-left. Is it supported by TB!?

You  are  right  and I know that (I even tried to learn Kanji once). But
it's  easier  for me to treat Kanji as an alphabet, because I don't know
proper english word for this... hmm... 'Chinese-bugs-on-paper?'.

So it should be called character set? Ok, good to know.

Maybe like this:
Is  The  Bat!  supporting multi-character digits, like Kanji alphabet or

You are wrong. It just need to be moved to Cliks (AFAIR), so they can
move it to D6 straight. The question is: do they, really?
The answer is: no. That means rewiting GUI from scratch (they need it
anyway) and GUI is, I think, about 60-70% of work.

Anyway, TB! works on some WinEmus on Linux.

I'm sure there isntt anything as 100% bug free program.

I do agree with You, but beta tester is someone using beta verion of
program. I know, that even final version has bugs. But usualy program
creators doesn't take any responsibility for any damage caused byusing
the program. If You don't like it - don't use it!
What is beta different to full version then? Not many people seen it, so
it's not tested enough.

No, I would rather have bug free program but it's imposible! More code
means more bugs. Using this or that version doesn't mean I don't mind
bugs. It means (in my case) I'm curious about new version enough to
download it.

Well I can live without CC, but it's quite handy. It only looks bad. :(

> Installing every version you find on the FTP site is simply madness, AFAIC.

Why? Driving while beeing drunk is a madness. Using Outlook Express is
an insanity. But downloading every version on program XXX means, that
You like it.

> From 1.51 to 1.52 is not going to improve your sex life.

B!!! They lied to me! ;P

> And 1.52x to 1.52y is not likely help much either.

BTW: I think, that the letter a-z is a bugfix. I just couldn't
understand, why RIT didn't do any patch program. So I've checked
differences between 1.52c and 1.52e. Exe length is equal, so it's highly
posible, that only some value passed to some object was changed. I was
wrong! The Bat! weights about 3.7 mb, and 1.5 mb changed, co patch would
be not very lighter.
And thats why I download every single version.

Re: Update on Access Violation Error

Hello!

As an answer for Your letter, I would like to write:

I wonder, why they're not available any more on RIT server?

Not true. I am using 1.52c and i get an access violation, but message is
beeing deleted. It's also strange, because first deletion takes about 15
seconds!

> The error message:
>  Access Violation at address 005F9753.  Read of address 0008

Thats obvious! Delphi reports Access Violation mostly, when program
refers to not existing object (Button, Label, etc.) or its not existing
property (FE: (FObject as TPanel).Caption:='Hello', When FObject is
TEdit type). Every time it searches in a different part of memory,
that's why numbers changes.

> I hope this helps.

Yes, but it would be nice to make beta 13 and 14 available somehow,
somewhere...

AFAIR this name has changed between betas.

Informations showed by CC are usefull, but I do agree, that it's ugly.
As someone said "that's when GUI is beeing prepared by programers". ;)

Yes. And I wonder what's the difference (Delete/Abort)?

Well, it's because it's in the developement stadium (Connection Centre).
I also think, that it would be nice to let user choose: Old progress
window or CC.

AFAIR it will not be available for 'normal user'. I don't know why,
though. There is also StrongBat! out there, but I don't know the
difference (I think it's not using iKey). Ask Marck D. Pearlstone, he's
one of couple SecureBat users. Read:

This is an interviev with Marck. It also covers some info about this

That's not right. Kylix uses Clisks (AFAIR) as its interface, which is
different to the Windows API calls. Clicks _will_ be supported by
Delphi, but in the near future, so I think that porting The Bat! to
Linux without rewriting more than 50% of code is imposible.

Re: Crash Bug in Bat 1.52c

2001-05-05 Thread IronHand

Hello!

As an answer for Your letter, I would like to write:

> Upon deletion of any message the program crashes.
  
Thats almost right here. I get 'Exception...' almost every time I
delete message or try to view in new window. I saw something like this
before (I don't remember the proper The Bat! version though).
I'm not sure, but I think it occures only when Message Center is active.
I thought it was because IE was in the background, but that's not the
point.

Re[2]: The Bat compared to Becky and Calypso

2001-02-25 Thread IronHand

Hello Jannik,

JL> Just remember this: When comparing Becky! and TB you are not comparing
JL> two programs at the same state of their development. The current
JL> version of Becky! is 2.00.03 and the current version of TB is 1.49. A
JL> lot of the goodies in the current version of Becky! will be present in
JL> v. 2.0 of TB as well. 

:-0 So You think, that Becky! developement should be stopped, so
The Bat! can release v2.0??? It's silly, I think, because the question
is which mailer is the best _now_, not which is beeing developed more
rapidly or longer.

Well, that's because unix is not like Win at all. There is nothing like
'assign extention to application'. Unix mailbox is usually named as
user name or just 'mailbox'. So You see, that extention is useless. You
can use anything You want.

Re: Zeros in kill filter

2001-02-02 Thread IronHand

Hello Lija,

L> When I drag filter from incoming mail to selective download, I get
L> something
L> like this:

L> [EMAIL PROTECTED]

L> Why are these zeros used for?

It is coused by the way TB saves filters in accont filter file. Try
changing some parameters in filter You had in incoming mail. Then move
it again. Changing location in filtering string from sender to
anything else, or presence from yes to no will change numbers. The
first one is location, the second one is presence. As You see
selective download is realy poor in comparision with other sections,
but every filter takes 255 bytes I think.

BTW: I'm working on a tool, that can move filters between accounts.
