Re: Subject: Drawing a curved shape - 2nd attempt
For over 20 years I have been waiting and wanting an xtalk supporting PS like graphics objects. I sent some years ago a classic curve drawing stack to Rev I created. I have seen others do it within xtalk but not smoothly however well done. Teasing me all the more of the rich, cool possibilities. There is much code for doing curve drawing on web, in textbooks, all in public domain. Yes, there are knotty tech issues to work out for an xtalk; yes, it must be done at the engine level. But it can be done I would hope so. I can only guess why (I have theories but I need to leave that unsaid), but frankly it is a painful mystery to me why Rev is not "getting it". Please, prove me wrong Rev. Please.

Re: Arrays: new and old keys, ii
One point of speculation which would make a huge difference is how Rev is actually implementing the arrays. If it is truly a hash table, providing any sort of in-order traversal of the array elements won't be happening any time soon. A hash table is an unordered piece of data, and so to provide any sort of built-in sorting, RunRev would have to implement workarounds under the hood similar to what people are already scripting. On the other hand, if they are using something more like red-black trees, it is trivial to walk the tree in order and return the elements. Or backwards. Or "next" and "prev" functionality. But... I have no idea what data structure they are using. -- Ok, this an important clue why I see and sense some missing aspects/ functionality etc in the new arrays. And I fear it may mean a much longer time before really, really true Arrays are fully in Rev. I don't want or need clever hacks to do simple things that the language should be doing for me. Yes, its good mental exercise figuring what's it all about, but why waste that time. I rather work smart than hard, for what's an x-talk for? Besides, why is there not a full tutorial explaining you can or cant do with the new arrays???

I am hoping RC2 will really shine on polished arrays. Rev cant afford to be so lax on this feature like so many features given but not finished over the years.

concerning 2.9 as "free"
Hi, I would like a clear, detailed statement from Rev explaining who does and doesn't get 2.9 as a free upgrade/update, and how is any 2.9.x updates understood as free or paid for too. For example, if one has any 2.7.x, 2.8.x versions does one get 2.9.0, but any 2.9.x updates will be a required to paid. For example, if one gets 2.9.0 but 2 months later, a 2.9.2 goes out, and you have not paid to renew your 2.7.x, 2.8.x, you wont be able to install that 2.9.2 version; so its "free" for only during that 2 months period.

dimming of Edit menu items after using OsX file dialogue
Hi, HELP I have found both in 2.8.1/2.9b10 that after calling OsX's standard file dialogue to open a file the first 4 menuitems under my Edit menu (stand editing stuff) becomes disabled until I force a redraw of the window by either iconizing it in the dock and uniconizing it or by opening another window and then bring the main stack window frontmost again. btw, yes when I use a hardwired file path, the edit menuitems do remain enabled; hence, know its how Rev is calling the OsX.

Some thoughts on testings...
I recently had been forced to move all my files to my ibook and make it my main computer while I figure out what to do with my old iMac G4 LCD dying...while doing so, I came across a file I saved and thought it important to post on the list in light of the open beta of 2.7.5...read slowly: Subject: Should Testers Be Allowed to Do Their Job? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Edward V. Berard) Date: Tue, 01 Aug 1995 07:35:23 -0400 Should testers be allowed to do their job? Before I can answer that, I need to define a few terms: - To slightly paraphrase Glen Myers (author of "The Art of Software Testing"), testing is the process of examining some material with the intention (or goal) of finding errors. The "material" can include the material produced during the development part of the software life- cycle (e.g., the products of the analysis, design, and coding efforts), and the specifications for the test cases themselves. - Testing is a comparison process. Specifically, it compares one set of material (e.g., object code) with some correspondingly related material (e.g., the specification for that object code). Symptoms of errors are detected when what is expressed in one set of material does not agree with what is expressed in its corresponding material. (It is not the job of the tester to find the exact source of the error. That is the job of the creator (developer) of the material.) - To be considered minimally adequate, the testing effort would have to detect the symptoms of all critical errors, and the symptoms of most, if not all, of the symptoms of all other errors. I propose that the job of the tester is to do at least minimally adequate testing, as defined above. Consider the following (unfortunately true) story. A few years ago, I was teaching a testing course at a firm that made implantable medical devices, e.g., pacemakers. Modern pacemakers not only contain software, but they are also programmed, monitored, and adjusted by systems that contain software. The people in the class were charged with testing the software associated with pacemaker systems. - During the class, the students were required to specify test cases for software. Part of any test case is the purpose for that test case. One of the students insisted that "the purpose of test case xyz is to _prove_ _that_ _some_ _particular_ _function_ _is_ _accomplished_." When I informed this person that, while this may have been the goal of the developer of the software, the goal of the tester was exactly the opposite. - Later, in the same class, one of the testers noted that developers "felt bad" when they were informed of errors in the software products for which the developers were responsible. The tester said that she felt it was part of her job to provide some encouragement to the developers. Other testers admitted that they were often uncomfortable with being "the bearers of bad bad news" (i.e., reports of errors). I was astonished. Was the ego of the developers more important than the health of the patients using the implanted medical devices? Were testers also required to be "psychological counselors" for the developers? Were both the testers and the developers aware of the negative impact on testing created by the reluctance of the testers to "make the developers feel bad?" Should testers be allowed to do their job? Based on my experience over the past 15 years, the answer to that question in most shops is" "up to a point." - Managers, developers, and testers often cannot distinguish between a _social_ situation and a _business_ situation. In a _social_ context, I would agree that people must seriously consider whether it is worthwhile to point out "problems." Specifically, one must weigh the feelings of the individuals involved against any "improvements" that might result from bringing a problem to light. In a business situation the rules change. The parties to a business arrangement are supposed to be aware of the terms and conditions of the business arrangement, and are required to act accordingly. One should _expect_ testers to find symptoms of errors. That is their job. Further, testers that routinely do not uncover symptoms of serious errors are not performing their jobs successfully. When a tester informs a developer of the symptoms of the errors he or she has uncovered, the tester is _not_ making a statement about the basic goodness or badness of the developer as a human being. The tester _is_ making a statement about some material for which the developer is responsible. - The time, staff, and other resources that are allocated to developers are often woefully inadequate. However, the time, staff, and resources that are allocated to the testing effort are, by in large, a joke. In all my years of training and consulting, I have run across fewer than 3 organizations that had anything even appro

Re: UNICODE Update....fyi
Version 4.1 of the Unicode(R) Standard Released MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- The Unicode(R) Consortium announced today the release of the latest version of the Unicode Standard, Version 4.1.0. This version adds 1,273 new characters, including those necessary to complete roundtrip mapping of the HKSCS and GB 18030 standards, five new currency signs, some characters for Indic and Korean, and eight new scripts. In addition, there have been a number of significant additions and changes to the Unicode Character Database properties, which determine the behavior of characters in modern software. Unicode 4.1 adds two new Unicode Standard Annexes: UAX #31: Identifier and Pattern Syntax and UAX #34: Unicode Named Character Sequences, and makes significant changes to other Unicode Standard Annexes. UAX #31 is of particular interest as a result of the broader incorporation of Unicode in protocols and programming languages. Applications from programming languages to international domain names require stable mechanisms for distinguishing both identifiers and syntax characters, even as characters for additional languages are added to the Unicode Standard. The release of Unicode 4.1 will be soon followed by a new release of the Unicode Collation Algorithm, for language-sensitive sorting, searching, and matching; by Unicode Regular Expressions, setting the standard for handling Unicode character in regular expressions; and by a new draft of Unicode Security Considerations, for dealing with security issues posed by the large number of visually-similar characters in Unicode. For complete details on Unicode 4.1, see http://www.unicode.org/versions/4.1.0/ . Those interested in the latest developments in software globalization can attend the next Unicode conference, April 6-8, 2005 in Berlin, Germany. About the Unicode Standard The Unicode Standard is a fundamental component of all modern software and information technology protocols. It provides a uniform, universal architecture and encoding for all languages of the world -- with over 96,000 characters currently encoded -- and is the basis for processing, storage, and seamless data interchange of text data worldwide. Unicode is required by modern standards such as XML, Java, C#, ECMAScript (JavaScript), LDAP, CORBA 3.0, WML, IDN, etc., and is the official way to implement ISO/IEC 10646. About the Unicode Consortium The Unicode Consortium is a non-profit organization founded to develop, extend and promote software globalization. The membership of the consortium represents a broad spectrum of corporations and organizations in the computer and information processing industry.

Re: Shafer Books...a thank you.
Dan, I thank you for your candor and willingness to seek a solution for your book project. I personally own many of your books over the years, so I know you can do the job when things are in sync for you. I respect your talents. I hope others would learn from your example. ;-) Andrew -{Choose Life, Create hope, Nurture Love...}- ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I notice that RB ships with full working examples of each nearly all key concepts in depth and breath and how-tos ... roughly 20mb! And that is free to download and learn from even for the trail versions. I often wish I could point newbies and wanna-owns the same for RR... I hope that can happen one day.
