Re: More CGI Stuff

[Yennie]

Eh! You're right- it does work. It seems I had written off the MacOS engine for scripts (I've been using the Darwin engine) for other reasons (namely "open process" behavior). Anyway, externals can be used through scripts just fine by way of "start using" with the mach-o engine and a mach-o external.

Of course now I just need a way to maintain some persistent memory (i.e. database cache). Any ideas? I can write globals to disk if needed, but I can't afford to re-create the database cache on every run of the script. Sounds like maybe I need to wait for Valentina Server.

This should just work on Win32 and MacOS systems.  You can either send
messages to the stack with the external, or use "start using" to
insert it into the message hierarchy.  If it really doesn't work,
please file a bug report.

User Settings on MacOS

[Scott Rossi]

Does anyone know where users' system configuration settings are stored on
MacOS?  Specifically I'm looking to find the user's language and locale
settings in OSX and OS9.  I've spent the last couple of days pouring through
Apple's online documentation and have found veiled references to something
called NetInfo with an apparent database that maintains the above settings,
and an app called NetInfo Manager that reads a number of these settings.
But I've found nothing that explicitly says "This is where the user's
settings are stored."  If anyone can offer a suggestion as to how to get
this info, you will save at least one Mac from being thrown through a plate
glass window.

Thanks & Regards,

Re: Progress During Downloads

The "traditional" way to do this was to use "load url", and then use 
the urlStatus function to track the download with a "send  
... in " routine. This wasn't possible with the "blocking" url 
calls such as "get url" and your example.

However, the latest libUrl release (1.0.8a1) has a callback feature 
which enables you to track progress during all downloads/uploads. 
More information is at the following url:
