[REQ] testers for SMTP socket and encoder

2002-04-30 Thread Shao Sean

Looking for a good robust SMTP socket?
Looking for a good robust SMTP encoder?

If you answered yes to either of those questions and are interested in
testing please email me off-list. Some knowledge of SMTP would be helpful,
but not necessary.

This will be a short test cycle as I want to release the new version ASAP.

For those who have interest in the socket, but not testing, I've removed all
the single functions/handlers and replaced them with one public one called
"smtp_send" that automates the sending for you (all the seperate
functions/handlers are gone now except a few support ones).

Re: MIDI & RR

2002-04-30 Thread Judy Perry

Don't have anything *useful* to offer here (unless I look up the
reference) but this has been raised several times on the Hypercard list
lately (where it's less important given that Hypercard directly supports
midi-like scripted musical notation), but I seem to recall Scott Raney
saying that it would be almost trivial to write something for MC/Rev that
would do likewise if only someone were 'intrepid' enough.

I'll see if I can find the file format reference.

Same thing in Rev on a Mac. On Unix or Windows it is Control-period.

A stack of communications toolbox XCMDs, my old library of externals I 
have picked up and those I wrote (easier than separating out and 
documenting things again) and a text document on the sPort toolkit are 
travelling directly to you, since even zipped to 550KB it is a bit over 
the Rev limit of 15KB.

Stopping a handler

2002-04-30 Thread Tony

Is there a way to stop execution of a handler from
the keyboard? I execute long handlers of extensive
repeat loops and sometimes the total execution
time is 20 or more seconds. If I realize that I
did something wrong (the handler runs for a minute
or so..), I want to kill the execution.

In HC the apple and period combination stopped a
handler. Is there something similar in Rev?

Odd, but (somewhat) true.

RR and MC use Quicktime to play .avi's on Mac and Windows, and they use
xanim to play them on unix. On windows, however, you can set the property
dontUseQT to true, to disable the use of quicktime, and thus use windows
built in multimedia system for the player object, play command, and visual
effects.

I wrote a program to play MPEG movies on the Mac in MetaCard using
QuickTime.  What I've noticed is that the movie will play better if you
don't use the controller.  Also, make sure you try to stop the movie before
you switch to another tool (like the button tool, etc.).  When I was testing
the software, it played great, but when I was developing everything, it was
pretty bad.  I guess the best way to go is to use small MPEG movies while
developing, and use the large ones for testing.

I don't know if this will help, but that's what worked for me.  Oh, AVI
support in QuickTime is pretty flaky.  Some work, and some don't.  To get
DIVX AVI's to work I had to download 2 things.  1 component for QuickTime to
allow it to play.  And a utility to convert the DIVX MP3 track to something
that Quicktime can handle.

If so, that would be an odd choice. I LOVE everything about QuickTime, 
but its handling of AVI files would not be one of its principle selling 
points. I was under the impression that all "movie media" was happening 
via QuickTime (of course I'm Mac centric lately.)

Re: MIDI & RR

2002-04-30 Thread Kurt Kaufman


"...Haven't any MIDI/RR experience, but I'm very interested in your
question Find out on the web
what the MIDI format file is comprised of.  See if you can get a
look at the guts of one, decode it a little so you understand it
and then go from there."

Rick,
Thanks for your post.  That's pretty much what I'm doing.  I'm hoping 
eventually to be able to directly access the "built-in" MIDI instruments 
(provided by Quicktime on Mac/Mac OS X) through a RR app, and at that 
point I will definitely need assistance from others.  (My copy of 
Codewarrior is very old, and I never did do much beyond textbook 
console-based programming in C.)

Are you using Apple's HyperCard serial port XCMDS to talk to a serial port

I have Apple's XCMDs. If you have some others you are willing to share, I
would appreciate you sending them to me.

One item Shao didn't mention; you need to acknowledge that portions of the
code are copyright RunRev and MC - check the license for details.  The
simplest thing (which I believe is adequate, someone from RunRev please say
if not) assuming your software will only be distributed as bits, won't have
any packaging etc, is to make sure that you have an about box, and put the
necessary text in there.


Also, if you are distributing a Mac version, and you want it to have any
documents of its own, then you should give it a custom creator code, which
must be unique.  You can get these from a tool on Apple's web site (it's
free, it's quick).  If you're app doesn't create any documents of it's own,
then you should set the creator code to "".

Yes.

On Mac, you need to catch the appleEvent message, checking for id of "odoc"
(open doc).   The data then gives the file information.

On Windows, since this always (?) results in launching a new instance of the
app, you need to put code in startup or openstack, according to the needs of
your project, to check the environment variables $1...$n, which will be the
file info.

One day there'll be an entry in the How To explaining this in more detail, I
believe.

Hope this helps.
