 I hate spending time analyzing, testing, and duplicating problems in a
 program and sending them to the software company where they end up in the
 Trash folder or /dev/null.

As I know, Stefan spends '6'!!! hours daily for mail support. If they
will answer each bugreport and suggestion, when will they create code
for TB? Nevermind!

I agree.  A programmer's time is better spent coding rather than answering
e-mail.  I know this very well since I do work for a software company, I
am their technical solutionist.

disable log-file/logging?

2001-02-06 Thread Alexander Levenetz

Hello everybody,


is there any way to disable the logging for sending and fetching
emails?
Yes, I could delete the log-file every time, but: can I get rid of the
logging itself?

Greetings,
Alexander

Hello Marek,


 try to set "0" bytes size of log file in account properties.

Minimum size is "1". 0 is automatically changed back to 1. And it is
still logging, of course.

Hi!
on Monday, February 05, 2001 16:42:10, our bat friend Lars Geiger typed:

KE accessible... This means that there isn't an easy way to get
KE to 'em and manipulate them.

LG What easier way than clicking on them are you looking for? :-)

Normally you can just look for check boxes and click them, but
unfortunately for us blind people who have to use screen readers which
convert the info on screen to in my case speech and braille, the check
boxes are non-standard, which means that the check boxes don't show up
as such but rather as graphics with just a number, eg "graphic 475".
This of course makes it very hard for me to determine if the box is
ticked or not unless you use the trial and error method.
LG Well, you can still right-click on the checkboxes to toggle their
LG status, to mark all, un-mark all, etc.

Interesting piese of info there...

KE Oh yes, there are shortcuts, but there isn't an easy way to
KE see if these boxes are checked or not.

LG Well, actually you can *see* if they are checked or not. Or am I
LG getting you wrong?

See explanation above...

KE [...] asking them to please make KE KE the check boxes in
KE the dispatcher "more standard". Thanks for the explanation,
KE Thomas.

LG In what respect do you think of them as 'non-standard'?

Since they are written in Delphi, i think, and Delphi uses its own
controls which doesn't look like the windows controls, Screen readers
doesn't recognize them for what they are, but rather see them as just
graphics. Maybe someone more experienced in programming could tell me
if you can use common controls in Delphi or if you have to use the
controls provided by the Delphi environment. (I think TB is written in
delphi, but i could be wrong.)

Re[2]: ! 1.49: Message Column Lists moves to the right, message threading

2001-02-06 Thread Jan Rifkinson

Hello Mark,

On Monday, February 05, 2001 21:56:07 [ -0500 GMT], you wrote the
following in regards to '! 1.49: Message Column Lists moves to the
right, message threading':

Mark [...] no ambition and initiative to report these problems to RIT
Mark Labs since they will probably ignore them. To me this shows the
Mark lack of interest to possibly solve some current problems where
Mark they company could keep or gain more customers. [...]

  IMO this comment speaks to your own personal frustration about a
  known problem which you've generalized by assuming that "they will
  probably ignore them [bug reports, suggestions].

  From my personal experience I can tell you that I have rcvd a
  personal response from one of the programmers *every* time I have
  reported a problem or offered a suggestion. My conclusion: they
  don't ignore these msgs; they answer those that they can resolve
  quickly, be it "you're right, we have to fix that" to "this is how
  you solve your problem".

  IMO they ignore those problems that are more cosmetic (albeit
  annoying) so they can focus on v2. Its a matter of triage or
  priority. We all have little issues here  there as we would with
  *any* piece of software, but my bet is, as a group, we'd rather see
  that small band @ RIT Labs focus on v2  all its promised to be,
  rather than using valuable resources to fix what are generally
  considered non-essential issues.

Re[2]: TB! v1.49 - folder template v AB group entry

2001-02-06 Thread Jan Rifkinson

Hi Allie,

On Monday, February 05, 2001 19:59:59 [ -0500 GMT], you wrote the
following in regards to 'TB! v1.49 - folder template v AB group
entry':

JR Or how can I clean up the first 2 lines of the QT output I
JR mentioned earlier?

Allie Would you expand on this. You mentioned using the %Subject and
Allie %Clipboard macros but I'm not sure exactly what you used these for and
Allie if you used both for all auto-replies.

  What happens, Allie, is that in responding to a poster, TB!
  correctly accesses a group template which includes a greeting  a
  signature.

  Then I manually insert a QT manually to switch some of the contents
  around. This QT includes %CLEAR, the correct text  %INCLUDES a
  signature.

  The resulting message is correct in all ways *except* that the first
  line is blank followed on the next line with "--space". I assume
  %CLEAR is somehow creating the blank line even though I placed it @
  the end of the QT. However I can't figure out what is creating the
  "--space" signature delimiter.

Re[2]: ! 1.49: Message Column Lists moves to the right, message threading

2001-02-06 Thread Jannik Lindquist

Hello Mark and other TBUDL's,

On Monday, February 05, 2001 at 15:47:18 GMT -0500 Mark Knipfer wrote on "!
1.49: Message Column Lists moves to the right, message threading":

 BUG: I found one annoying bug.  In a message thread if you click on the plus
 signs throughout the entire message thread, you will notice the Message List
 Columns to the right will gradually move to the right. If you do this through
 a long threaded message discussion, you will see the remaining Message List
 Columns just goes to the far right where you have to right scroll over to see
 them.

MK This is becoming very annoying problem, especially when I am using
MK TheBat! much more now.

I would very much like to learn, what you think could be a better solution. It
seems to me that you are asking the impossible, if you want TB to solve all
threading problems on the amount of space that your split-mode allows. IMHO, it
is better to think of the threading-possibilities in the list-view as a generous
bonus - and then do serious thread-reading in the folder-view. When this is
said, I will the first to admit, that the folder-view can be a bit cumbersome,
as well. At present, I have expanded the "Message List"-view (in the
folder-view) to almost full screen and then toggles this "Message List"-view on
and off (using Alt+V+M). This works great for me - but it would be nice with
more advanced options for toggling the message list-view on and off (full
screen/half screen/off).

As you probably know, the news reader Agent solves all these problems by

1) putting a limit on how many follow up-levels there can be in a thread

and

2) allowing control of the degree of indentation of the follow-ups

In my opinion, 1) is a very poor solution and is one of the main reasons, I gave
up Agent as an e-mail reader (and became a TB-user :-)). Is it really something
like this, that you want for TB?

Personally I do.  I have no problems with the way Agent threads, and
IMHO is much more useful than Bat!  Gravity News Reader also threads
this way, and if the Bat! developers have time, they may wish to look
to Gravity re keeping topics in the correct threads.  Even if someone
changes a topic in reply (just to be clever, for example), Gravity
still threads correctly.
