record sound. MP3?
I tried the 'record sound file' command in the new 2.4 beta, but the quality seems really bad, with no difference between 'good' , 'better' and 'best'. The quality is significantly lower than the lowest quality of the supercard record sound (6:1 comp, AIFF format). But what I would really like is to be able to record directly (from microphone) into MP3. Given the quality and universality and comparative cheapness of MP3 (converting the supercard 'best' to MP3 cut the memory in half, with no detectable loss in quality) it seems silly to be messing with other formats at this time. Does anyone know of a plug-in that will allow direct recording of MP3 in either hyper, super, or meta card? I know that using N2MP3Pro (commercial MP3 software) you can directly record from microphone to MP3, but I don't want the hassle of having to use a second application in conjunction with my meta-card project. thanks, mark mitchell Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/metacard@lists.runrev.com/ Info: http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/mailinglist.htm Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not this list.

Re: htmlText - what entities, what charset?
On Wed, 27 Jun 2001 Ben Rubinstein [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Is it possible to get a list of the character entities supported by htmlText (or a link to the reference used)? I think the table came from the HTML 3.2 spec. Also, I have the impression that when non-ascii characters are found in the text which do not have a corresponding character entity name, they are mapped in some way to a particular character set, and then expressed as codes, eg #148;. Is this in ISO-8859-1? Eg if on the Mac you set the text of a field to numtochar(165), which is bullet, you'll find that the htmlText of the field is #149;. Can Scott (or someone) confirm that this is what is happening, and what happens when there is no mapping for the character in the 'local' character set to the destination one (ISO-8859-1, if it is that)? Yes, which is the same way HTML works. And there is always a mapping to some other character value, though not always the same character glyph (or even to a printable character). It uses the same tables as the ISOToMac() and MacToISO() functions. The same information is presented graphically in the character chooser.

the seconds -- start date
I know I came across the start date for MC's seconds function recently, but I can't find it now that I want to refer someone else to it. The entry in the MetaTalk Reference simply says ...from some artibtrary time, but doesn't mention what that time is. Where is that documented?

No time right now to give you anything complete, but check out the mark command for this. Here's a general idea: and: unmark all cards mark cards by finding cat in field theText unmark cards where lion is not in field theText -- remaining marked cards have both lion and cat or unmark all cards mark cards by finding cat in field theText mark cards by finding lion in field theText -- marked cards now have either one or the other not unmark all cards mark cards by finding cat in theText unmark cards by finding lion in theText -- marked cards are those with cat but not lion Then you can go through and get the names of the marked cards for your list. Make sure to unmark all cards first whenever you do this, since the mark property is persistent. -- Jeanne A. E.
