Re: Zipping an application package by script

But that does that mean there are several versions of Zip on the machine? 1. zip for rev 2. zip for the shell 3. whatever Automator uses (perhaps shell, above) 4. The finder Compress menu item...

AW: slown down of IDE 2.9 under windows
Hi Eric and Malte, @Eric: when running rev on a freshly booted machine I still have 1GB (of 2GB) free memory, so it shouldn't use virtual mem. @Malte: messageMessages is false I have noticed that only the menu items of the IDE main window have the slow reaction, the icons below (inspector, script, messagebox,...) and the icons in the tools palette windows react with normal speed. Thanks anyway for your answers, probably I'll have to live with this behaviour or I'll find a solution by accident. @Jerry: ok, got it :) Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:use-revolution- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Eric Chatonet Gesendet: Dienstag, 9.

Means, after clicking on the file menu I have to wait 3 to 5 sec until the file menu opens, same with all other menus. After the menu is open and a menu item is been choosen everything runs in normal speed. I deactivated all plugins (took them out of the plugin folders), except of the GLX2 plugins. Other programms have normal behavier at the same time, so that it also can't be other running processes. Did someone experienced such a behavier or has an idea where to look for? BTW, could someone shed some light on the plugin philosophy of runrev in the windows folder structure?

Hello, I have some text buttons, where I would like to realise a hover effect (mouseover) with a (50%) opaque/transparent color of the button (like the menu items of MS Office products on Win). Up to now I can't see a solution for this. As standard properties I can only set icons for hover (which would only make sense with icon buttons, not with text buttons, no colors, nore transparent colors. If I would make my hover effect myself with mouseenter, I can't control the transparency of the button color, just solid colors. Am I right that these are the two options for making a hover effect (icons or solid colors), or is there a trick with a workaround to create a 50% opacity hover effect? Probably is a set of icons anyway the solution of choice. Thanks for any hints Tiemo ___ 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
Re: AW: AW: slown down of IDE 2.9 under windows

Re: Zipping an application package by script
Mark, thanks for your suggestions. I do know about the terminal, and I have read the man page on zip several days ago. As I mentioned at the start of this thread, using zip in the shell for me has ended up in zip not digging identical filenames like .DS_store or info.plist (in different folders ) and stopping execution. Rather than think about some kind of pre-cleaner to remove or change them (why should I ) I had moved on after 20 minutes. I bet you could do it all with the lowercase r flag. which was what I was doing: put zip -r -jj into zCommand put /Users/barncard/STANDALONES/55.app/ into ToBeZippdFolder put /Users/barncard/Desktop/archive/ into zipfolder replace space with \ space in zipfolder replace space with \ space in ToBeZippdFolder put shell( zCommand ToBeZippdFolder ToBeZippdFolder) into fld output and got this result: zip warning: name in zip file repeated: Info.plist zip error: Invalid command arguments (cannot repeat names in zip file) What I have been looking for here, is an all-rev solution -- and it appears that I was wrong in assuming that one couldn't build a complex file and folder structure inside revZip. As it turns out, Trevor Devore just sent me a recursive handler using strictly revZip commands that I think do what I want.

Play iTunes protected videos
Hum! It never ceases to amaze me that this sort of questions are even asked. As quickly as people develop electronic protection schemes other people work out ways to get round them. I have just spent 2 minutes searching with Google and, could, should I wish (which I don't as I don't own any DRM or other-wise protected media files), undo the protection lickety-split. Presumably Apple, in their infinite wisdom, have protected their media files just exactly so that everybody, including RR programmers and end-users, cannot play them. However, as Runtime Revolution works with Quicktime, it should play any file that Quicktime can play. It is probably necessary to 'tell' Revolution to play DRM audio files using the Player object as if they were video files; i.e. define DRM audio files with videoClip rather than with audioClip. A few years ago I authored a CD-ROM for Scottish High Schools on music education; I converted all the original sound files into MOV files (using a blank image as a dummy video file); this allowed for a good level of end-user control via play videoClip at xx,xx. Personally I object to the following: I am legally not allowed to make a backup copy of a DVD I own (bl**dy silly when it gets damaged), similarly with music CDs, I am legally not allowed to transfer data from gramophone records I own to home made music CDs for my own use, I am legally not allowed to transfer data from cassette tapes I own to home made music CDs for my own use, I am legally not allowed to transfer data from VHS tapes I own to home made DVDs for my own use. As a result my home is full of gramophone players, cassette players, VHS players and so forth, taking up an awful lot of space. I am a child of the 1970s who grew up with a cheap cassette recorder and an even cheaper record-player: my friends and I cross-copied without being aware of doing anything 'naughty'. We all spent quite a lot of our parents' hard-earned money on records. So why on earth I should pay money for a DRM-protected piece of music I cannot pop onto a CD to listen to on a picnic, or, even, transfer to another of my machines so that I can listen to it in another room, I don't know.

May be Richard will chime in with his (useful) benchmarks but I never encountered any problem with scripts length or handlers number. It's been a while since I benchmarked Rev's field loading and buffering, but suffice to say it was impressive. Loading up a field with the entire Bible (courtesy of the Gutenberg Ebooks Project) took a while to load, but once loaded it scrolled more smoothly than a fourth as much text in Microsoft Word. In my experience, the biggest slowdown with loading a field with large amounts of text is when the engine has to determine soft breaks for lines. This isn't an issue in script editors, since the dontWrap of the field is set to true leaving the developer in control of where lines wrap. In terms of overall performance, 2300 lines of hard-wrapped text in a field with the dontWrap set should be pretty snappy to load, and very responsive to scrolling. If there's a question about performance of the raw native field control relative to whatever processing GLX2 may be doing to prep display, you can simply try this: put the script of stack StackWithABunchOfcode That will dump the text of the script into the Message Box. If it takes about the same time as it does to open GLX2 with the same script, the issue lies elsewhere. -- Richard Gaskin Managing Editor, revJournal ___ Rev tips, tutorials and more: http://www.revJournal.com ___ 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

Mirye Monthly Release: Mirye RevCamp Issue 809
http://www.mirye.com/index.php/Latest/Mirye-RevCamp-Issue-809.html Hello all, We've posted our second monthly release, given it a different name and modified the format. Each month, we offer a goodie bag of additional materials of interest to Mirye Revolution customers who are eligible for upgrades. Since a number of months of updates are included when you order Revolution, we want to have every month count. This is our Back to School issue of RevCamp, which includes a nice replacement set of art-icons for HyperCard-Revolution porting and two weeks of Jerry Daniel's new Rev Mentor service. Qualified Mirye Revolution Studio and Enterprise customers are also receiving the full version of Animation Engine - now a $79 value. Limited time benefits are only available in the month they are released, so if you are eligible, its worth the effort to download them while they are available. Let me anticipate your first question - there are 168 unique icons/images in the set :-) There are also some newsbytes on offers, pricing and some article reprints that are of interest to new customers. Over the next several months, we will be dramatically upgrading our website and form of RevCamp. If you've written some articles on Revolution, or would like to contribute, please follow up with me off-list. We are targeting a slightly different segment of customer than Runtime that is learning Revolution and scripting for the first time, but also bringing on more institutional customers, such as the US Department of Justice.

Re: Zipping an application package by script
Stephen, I would really consider using the tar command through shell(). It's purpose in life is primarily to archive directories, and it can zip things up automatically. Here is a very basic guide: http://www.cpqlinux.com/tar.html With tar, this is a shell() one-liner. Just treat the app like an ordinary directory. Hopefully I'm not missing some other requirement, in which case I'll shut up =). - Brian ___ 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

Just treat the app like an ordinary directory. Thanks for the tip on using tar to compress nested folders. I did the following on Mac OSX 10.5.4 = 3 folders containing two files with the same name --nestedFolder --folder01 --index.php --folder02 --index.php tar -c -z -f nestedFolerTest.tar.gz folderTarget -- created nestedFolerTest.tar.gz I moved the gz file to another folder, then double clicked to decompress, and everything worked perfectly. Further, using control-click (or right-click) and choosing 'open with console' displays the contents of the archive + has a filter input box to show only the lines you want to see 'open with stufit expander' just as you would expect a) one file ( nestedFolerTest.tar no gz), b) then the folder ' nestedFolerTest' as the original Hope this helps someone Jim Ault Las Vegas ___ 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
Re: Zipping an application package by script
The problem is that it, being Linux doesn't seem to like mac .app packages. That's the rub. tar: /Users/...app/: Cannot open: Is a directory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now could someone try this with a standalone.app being tarred?

UI Blind Effect
Has anyone been able to get the User Interface Blind Effect to work that is part of the Rev Tutorials? If you have, could you share it with me. I have gotten the other tutorials to work but this one does not. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/UI-Blind-Effect-tp19425955p19425955.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ 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
Re: AW: beginners quest: set cursor to hand
Ditto. I thought that they thought it was too Mickey-Mouse looking? I like Mickey Mouse myself...

Le 10 sept. 08 à 23:06, Ken Ray a écrit : Add: Is there any situation, where you would set the cursor to anything without locking it? Well a good example might be if you want a different default cursor. Rev's default cursor is a hand (I believe), so if you wanted it to be an arrow instead, you can do: set the defaultCusor to arrow In that case, you don't need to use lock or unlock.
