Re: Hybrid CD
Although this may not be quite the answer you wanted, I've found the easiest way to make hybrid CDs on MacOS X is to: 1) Create a CD sized disk image (using the Disk Utility) 2) Mount/Attach/Open (choose your favourite verb) your fresh DMG 3) Copy in your directory structure and all the files 4) Set it up precisely how you want it to look under MacOS with icons/backdrops/file placement etc. 5) Execute the following command in a terminal window: hdiutil makehybrid -o iso_filename dmg_filename 6) Take the ISO image and burn away. This will quite happily create an ISO image with: - HFS (MacOS) extensions - Joliet (Windows) extensions - RockRidge (UNIX) extensions Meaning that it should work fine on virtually any platform... Incidentally, the 'hdiutil' command-line utility is great - allows you to do everything Disk Utility does and more. Anyone looking to do CD/ISO/DVD image related work (and who hasn't done so already) should definitely type 'man hdiutil' into a friendly terminal window :o) Warmest Regards, Mark.

RE: preOpenStack Weirdness
Hi, Just saw your reply! Sorry I didn't mean to suggest that you thought my code was badly written, was just puzzled at what you meant! If I take the code as-is and paste it into the openStack handler it works! In fact if I execute it anywhere except in a preOpenStack handler it works! Is this the correct behavour? It is REALLY causing me problems at the moment, since I have to remember not to use functions/handlers in the Utility Stack in preOpen handlers. Could anyone shed some light on this?

Re: Poke a Shell Variable with xTalk?
My suggestion would be to go with the (text file + shelling to sendmail) combination, and not the (shell + echo + pipe) combination to get variables into anything but the simplest stuff. I have not done this with sendmail but looking at the man page, would indicate that you need to use the : Postfix sendmail relies on the postdrop(1) command to create a queue file in the maildrop directory. Which you can find at: /var/spool/postfix, mail queue However as this says use postdrop which in return takes input from STDIN you are back to square one. newaliases Initialize the alias database. If no input file is specified (with the -oA option, see below), the program processes the file(s) specified with the alias_database configuration parame- ter. If no alias database type is specified, the program uses the type specified with the default_database_type configuration parameter. This mode of operation is implemented by running the postalias(1) command. Where: -oAalias_database Non-default alias database. Specify pathname or type:pathname. See postalias(1) for details. So this is not looking simple:) The postalias command seems to be the thing you need to create the queue files in the maildrop directory (from files): POSTALIAS(1) POSTALIAS(1) NAME postalias - Postfix alias database maintenance SYNOPSIS postalias [-Nfinoprvw] [-c config_dir] [-d key] [-q key] [file_type:]file_name ... So by issuing a series of simple commands passing the right fileNames you should get the result you want?

Re: Rev Dev WANTED!
Jeff, If you find someone please let me know. We have been converting our HyperCard business system to Rev for over three years! It has taken so long because Rev still doesn't do some of the things we take for granted in HC. Reports is an example, Rev still doesn't do reporting (among other problems, Quartam Reports won't handle scrolling fields!) - HC and 9 to 5 Reports was a much better combination. If your system is multi-user, there are another set of issues. Anyway, we're working on it. Incidentally our most popular business system is for rentals. In your neighborhood it is used by All Valley in Granada Hills, A-Rental Connection in Canoga Park, Agoura Rentals in Agoura and Palmdale/Lancaster, A+ in North Hills, Jim's One Stop in Sunland, and SCVRC in Saugus. We are in San Dimas. I just returned from New Jersey where I spent a week with one of our customers, Magical Enterprises, the largest bounce rental company on the East Coast. They have been using our system for about ten years. You might consider joining the So Cal Rev Dev Con which meets semi-monthly - ususally at 4th World in downtown LA. You could meet Richard Gaskin our host and programmer extraordinare, as well as many of the local Rev Gurus, and Ken Ray regularly flies in from Wisconsin. Let me know if you are interested, I believe I could prevail on Mr. Gaskin to invite you. Sincerely, Paul Looney PS Don't panic at the prospect of a three year conversion. Our system consists of 43 interactive stacks, over 100 reports, and 11 plugins. It is multi-user and very powerful - the orders stack alone has over 150 fields and over 150 buttons. We have found that simple conversions can be done quite simply.

Re: Why I have got only 2 speakers working with Quicktime 7 ?
This sounds like proper default behavior to me. If one is monitoring stereo in professional situations, one does NOT use the rear speakers with the same info. If surround is now a possibility in QT7, then this is correct behavior. There would be no way for the software to know how your system is connected in analog. Anyway if you must have the same front and back, simple connector splitters are available at Radio Shack.

You can hold down the shift key to bypass MLXEditor and use the default Rev editor but it still makes debugging difficult. There is a simple fix though. Here is a modification you can make in order to bypass MLXEditor whenever the debugger is being used. So while editing scripts in your external editor you can type breakpoint anywhere in your code, save the script, return to Rev and when you run the script the Rev debugger will open. Just make sure you close the debugger before editing the script in the external editor again. Here is what you do after installing MLXEditor: 1) type the following in the message box and execute it: edit script of card 3 of stack revmlxeditor 2) Change the script to: local sDebugging = false on traceBreak put true into sDebugging pass traceBreak end traceBreak on editScript pID get sDebugging put false into sDebugging if it then pass editScript -- use built-in script editor/debugger if shiftKey() = down then pass editScript -- use builtin script editor -- default to external script editor send doEditScript pID to stack revMLXEditor end editScript -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Multimedia [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

This has worked fine for me in the past. For debugging purposes, make a log field and use libURLsetLogField to show all the logged data in that field. That way you will be able to see whatever messages your FTP server is giving and that might give you a clue.

What's mdimport ?
Hello folks, Can anyone tell me what mdimport is? I'm using a Mac with OS X and a utility called Activity Monitor to monitor my CPU usage, and mdimport very often is in the 90% + range. What is this that is soaking up my CPU usage??

Copy image content for object image empty.
Hello colleagues, I am trying to copy an image that is in a stack for an object image empty, but it doesn't work; that makes it is to copy a dirty image for the object image. Script in the object image Visor on mouseUp put the imagedata of image img01 of this stack into tImageData put the tImageData into the imagedata of image Visor end mouseUp I'm tried too with the property paintcompression, but not work, i.e., i'm tried to put the paintcompression into object image Visor. Some idea of as making it would be welcome.

I haven't had any trouble with it but one of my colleagues has. Getting more RAM helped (as it always does) but I think it might have been because he had some constantly changing folders containing thousands of text files. Whether you use Spotlight or not, I know of no way to turn it off. Welcome to Tiger. Here is a shareware utility to turn Spotlight off on http://www.fixamacsoftware.com/software/spot/index.html but if you are comfortable using Terminal, you can do it yourself http://rixstep.com/2/20050528,00.html although this description doesn't tell you how to turn it back on again if you change your mind!

In fact I am surprised that this didn't give you an script error.

Re: Text to speech engines for Windows
Hi Bob - I've used SAPI 4 5 to enable Rev speech synthesis on Windows, and haven't found any problems on the surface. I'm not doing anything too fancy with speech, just speaking unmodified English text so far. As you may have already discovered, there are third-party voices available whose quality completely eclipses MS and Apple voices. I don't know a lot about the licensing details as I'm just at the beginning of the selection process myself, but there are some good ones out there. Here's a quick one I've tried: http://cepstral.com/ They have downloadable voices for Mac. Windows, Linux. Languages include English, Americas Spanish, Canadian French, Italian, and others. Here's a list of other resources. Some have products that support text-to-speech (TTS) in phone sytems, others support TTS in cars, some support it in computers: www.brightspeech.com www.slt.atr.jp/ss-e www.naturalvoices.att.com www.cepstral.com fonix.com www.research.ibm.com/tts www.iflytek.com/English/products.htm www.infotalkcorp.com www.loqundo.com www.nuance.com www.scansoft.com www.svox.com www.toshiba.co.jp/rdc/mmlab/tech/w21e.htm HTH - Phil Davis Bob Earp wrote: What's the best English text to speech engine for Windows? I see there are ones from Microsoft, WinSpeech, Lernout Hauspie, ATT, and maybe others. Are there others for Spanish, Portuguese and French ? Also, through searching I see references to SAPI 4.0, SAPI 5.0 and SAPI 5.1 (I assume) standards for these engines. Are there any problems associated with a particular version and a release of Windows ? Tnx, Bob...
