Re: undo insertion into group
Hi Dennis, Just a comment about your script: You use 3 non exclusive conditional structures and then the engine will have to test all of them. You might prefer something like: if word 1 of it is button then put it cr after btnList else if word 1 of it is field then put it cr after fldList if it contains label field then next repeat is unnecessary and redundant :-) Just my two cents.

Well, it was the mother tongue, and it may confuse many more people and possibly break scripts if they changed it. Personally my own preference is for the consistency you propose. But before I vote for the bug I'd like to hear the rationale for HyperCard's behavior -- where's JK Calhoun when you need him? I didn't always agree with his language recommendations but I did always respect the thoroughness of his thinking. If I remember right, it went something like this. You have a list of lines: Line One cr Line Two cr Line Three cr How many lines are in the list? How about this list: Line One cr Line Two cr Line Three Most people would say there are three lines in both lists. We expect the last line to be the same whether there is a trailing carriage return or not. Line -1 of either list is Line Three. How many lines in this list: Line One cr Line Two cr Line Three cr cr Most people would say there are four lines, and the last line is empty. That's because there are two trailing returns. To retain consistency when processing all types of text chunks, single trailing delimiters are dropped. Thus: item1,item2,item3, has three items, as does: item1,item2,item3 and item -1 of either list is item3. And so on.

Box around found text
This is really a query about etiquette, I think, rather than a bug report. I noticed that when my script is repeatedly finding a multi-word phrase in a text field on a cards in a large stack it sometimes appears to fail. I eventually realised that it isn't failing - it just doesn't show the box around the text if the phrase includes a soft line-ending (i.e. the text wraps to a new line). This looks wrong to me, and could confuse users. So I searched bugzilla (using the very helpful RevZilla stack) but couldn't find any reports on the problem. Can someone more expert than I confirm this? Are there any bugzilla search tricks worth passing on? So, assuming that it hadn't been reported, I sent in a report via Revzilla.

H - I think I'd agree with Phil Davis from an earlier thread on the topic of Web Notes - without someone watching over the content, you have to be careful how much you trust Web Notes written by random, unidentified people. And of course, there's no way to know whether anything you put up there will remain there, since anyone can edit it later. You bring up a good point. Contributors should put their name or email into their notes. Deleting/editing someone else's notes should require some sort of password given to trusted contributors. The thing that would really make the web notes shine, is if the Icon would change to a wiggly one, or some other way of grabbing your attention if a web note is available. I am sure it would be easy to add a script to the doc stack that after finding a topic, it would (if you have a web connection) check to see if the web note is not empty and do something noticeable. Unfortunately I am not experienced enough to make that change. Anyone out there know how to do this? The problem is that there's no way to tell if there is a Web Note without doing the HTTP get - and once you've got the web page, you might as well just display it - so you might as well just turn on Display Web Notes. There might be some value in changing an icon, for the sake of those where the doc page is more than one screen long, and it's easy to miss the web note. I tried this turn on Display Web Notes, but the note window does not get refreshed when I go to a new entry. I have to close it and open it again to get the current note. What I've been looking at is extracting all the Web Notes - easy to do, but pretty slow . and demonstrates the need for someone to monitor what text gets entered there. I'll put the stack up on RevOnline when it's done - but in the meantime, all the Web Notes from the Dictionary can be found at http://www.tweedly.net/RunRev/webnotes-dictionary.html Pitiful few notes added so far.

The Travelodge on Munras (not the one on Fremont; you dn't want to stay there) is affordable but I don't know if they take pets or not. Let me know if I can help any other way.

If I click any non DQB linked button or in the background then the save is made but if I go straight to a button like Next then the change is lost.

Single linked-lists. Using the Keyword fields you get another
linked list and i got a double linked-list coming soon for
other stuff...
It's just a matter of organization...
in c you would do something like:
struct list{
char *name;
int*link
} *listlink;
in Rev :
item 1 of a list is a name, item 2 is either a control ID or a long name or
a link to another array key member.
Very simple...

no, there's no way to filter files with their copy line... revCopyFile pSrcFile, pDestFile write your own, it's the best... if you need more options, check out the windows resource kit's robocopy or xxcopy. scopy and xcopy also have tricks of their own but only xxcopy does it all alas it's not free but it's nto expense either and there's a freeware mode - although it's interactive mode will leave Runrev hanging if you didn't use start.exe first. Mac and unix equivalents also exist. Same battlefield i presume. The revCopyFile (or folder) will block the execution of runrev while it copies and will not copy everything so you need to check again after the copy... The result variable will hold the log of the shell operation used. Which you need to parse for errors. To thread a copy, use the start DOS tool to make shell give you back the use of your rev environment. But you will still have to parse a log for errors. Dont forget to always enclose paths in quotes too. im writing a new scalable migration tool for work. Heavy duty copying with all types of checks, logs, stats, scheduling, filter intelligence and grouping, security and audit management, and lots more. But it's not for tomorow and it wont be cheap. But it will adapt to any copy tool, any os, any environment including some EMC tools. Like a TAOO but just for files... For a preview, search filebrowser in monsieurx.com.

A real copy handler for rev
Requires Robocopy from the resource kit but can be easily changed for xcopy or copy or scopy or the daunting xxcopy.com mega copy tool. function CopyFile srcpath,destpath,dfiles,doptions,logpath if srcpath= or destpath= then -- parse error put 2 into thisp if srcpath is empty then put 1 into thisp return Error: parameterthispempty error end if -- defaults if dfiles is empty or dfiles=all then put *.* into dfiles put /e /z /np /sec /r:0 /v /log+:logpath into doptions get shell(START ROBOCOPY srcpath destpath dfiles doptions) return it end CopyFile Note: this script is part of the TAOO NT lib. It's the most primitive version dated 4 years ago ;) cheers Xavier http://monsieurx.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
