Re: [ANN] ChartMaker 2
Yes. To make a good chart is not easy (experience with excel) - now there is Chartmaker with it's wizard (chartmaker utility) which helps making charts a step by step process and at the end you have a script you can use in your own stack.

Re: [Mandelbrot] Code Samples/Comparisons
great! Till Am 07.12.2009 um 01:09 schrieb Bill Marriott: Hi Mark, what about using task/code examples from http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/. Revcoders (us, runrev ltd?..) will I think that's a great idea. Sorry, Kevin, I think it's a Very Bad Idea. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this! But I think it's a *great* example, and I am going to show you why. Let's start out with a few observations: - How practical is this? I took a closer look at the site. http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u64/benchmark.php?test=mandelbrotlang=allbox=1 The goal of the routine is to generate a mandelbrot image in the .PBM format. Now, this has some relevance I suppose in testing CPU performance, but not exactly in the real world. How many programs read PBM, for one? None on my Mac, but Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro could read it on my Windows PC. How fun is it to run this program, then load the result up in a graphics editor? About as much fun as punch-card, batch programming. - The original Pascal program (or at least your transliteration of it) *has a bug!* Give the output file an extension of .pbm and load it into a program that can read that format. You'll find that the image is skewed more and more as the dimensions increase. http://revuser.com/mandel/orig-600.png In either Pascal or revTalk, as coded, it's going to be a challenge to find out where that bug lies. - It doesn't seem like it was that hard to transliterate the original Pascal code. I was impressed by the similarities, actually. Even then, there are portions of your revTalk version that are a little more readable. Since the vast majority of this is mathematics, and we're not out to reinvent algebraic notation, you're right that it's not the best showcase. Math is going to be math in any programming language. It's certainly not *less* readable. What makes it hard is the Mandelbrot formulas and especially the encoding into .pbm format (which is what requires all those bit operations. (Maybe all of the examples from that site are like this?) - Pascal is considered a pretty easy language. Did you check out what the solution looks like in Java? http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u64/benchmark.php?test=mandelbrotlang=javaxintid=3 In C++? http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u64/benchmark.php?test=mandelbrotlang=gppid=5 Woah! :) - Well our performance is a is a bit disappointing relative to the command line Pascal version, we *do* beat out variants of PHP, Python, Ruby, and Perl, depending on what your processor was versus the one used for the benchmarks. - You were able to add a nice GUI file selector dialog trivially. Now, imagine that your goal isn't to produce a .pbm image, but rather to show something on-0screen the user could interact with in some way. Things get more interesting. This is where Rev starts to shine. The further away you get from pure math and have to get into user interface, interaction with local and remote file systems, manipulating data sets, and business logic issues, the better we look. Our language abstracts the operating system, so developers don't need to be concerned with the proper API to call for common tasks. - Most (but not all) of us are not using Rev to generate Mandelbrot data. We're creating usable applications for business tasks, entertainment and educational software, database front-ends, etc. It might well be that this site/link is all about these kinds of math-intensive routines. I didn't look too closely at them, admittedly. What I did like about Viktoras' suggestion was that he found a site with some sample code in a variety of languages. I think it's healthy for us to look for such examples and discover the strengths and weaknesses that emerge when we try to express them in revTalk. My take on the productivity equation is that it's not merely the number of lines of code produced, and it's ultimately not even how fast the code executes. In most situations, it's how long it takes to express the algorithm, and debug it later on. To encapsulate algorithms in flexible user interfaces. To take things to an extreme: a routine built with machine code or assembly will always execute faster than one built in a high-level language. But how many of us could sit down and write a database front-end in assembly? How long would it take? How usable and adaptable would it be? Another way to look at things is from the artist's viewpoint. There are people who will never touch digital photography because they are expert at the analog process. There are illustrators who will never give up their charcoals. There are Lego builders who spurn the non-rectangular bricks! And thank heaven for them, because I respect the desire for control and attention to nuance. In a similar vein, other languages can indeed reward sweating details like what kind of number you're trying to store, manually allocating and releasing memory, etc.

I didn't like the way Rev presents it's documentation entries, so I made my own GUI (like Benedict Seidl did before). There are two parts to it: 1. A library that takes all the xml stuff out of handling the documentation entries, which makes it easy for others to make their own documentation GUI stack. 2. And there's my own GUI stack, interfacing said library. You need to be aware that the format/structure of the files of the docu changed a bit in some Rev versions, thus the stacks (at this point) only work with Rev versions 2.7.2 or newer. You can greatly change the way each entry is shown using the layout settings, please adjust them to match your own style and needs. Really, take a look at the settings, there's some nifty stuff there. (Some of the beta testers never touched them, and I was a bit downed by that :-( ) Also of note should be that the stack saves on different occasions (after finishing the installation, every time you close the settings...). So it's not advised (or tested) to run it by using 'go url http://...;'. The stacks are located at the bottom of this page: http://bjoernke.com/runrev/stacks.php Direct link to my library (only interesting if you want to make your own GUI stack): http://bjoernke.com/stacks/docslib_by_bvg.rev Direct link to my GUI stack (includes the library): http://bjoernke.com/stacks/bvg_docu.rev Use these stacks at your own risk, and however you want. It'd be very cool if I could host your own docu stack based on my library, or if you would allow me to link to your version. Even if you don't want that, let me know if you use the library, that'll make me glad. Thanks go to the chatrev fab four and shaosean for their input on earlier versions. At this point it always seems strange for me to go back to the build in documentation (and I only did it to find bugs in my own stack). This behaviour tells me that I improved the usability for my needs compared to the existing documentation GUI. have fun Bjoernke von Gierke Here end the required readings, below this line: more in depth information. If you want to start my documentation stack every time revolution starts up, follow these steps (of course you can always just open it the usual way you open Rev stacks): 1. Download stack (link below), and save it into the plugins folder of your Revolution installation. 2. Open the plugin settings of Rev (Development-plugins-plugin settings) 3. Choose BvG Docu from the dropdown 4. hilite Open when revolution starts up 5. hilite Open as modeless Stack 6. close the plugin settings 7. restart rev 8. follow the installation instructions of BvG Docu 9. BvG Docu will now start every time you open Rev, ready to use How it works: Rev's docu is stored in stacks, as compressed custom properties. My library takes these, and makes one file per entry (there's ca 1500 of them). These files are then saved to a folder, and can be directly parsed, or accessed by sending the library a command. The GUI stack I made just adds cream and a cherry on top, especially as I don't want to look at custom property sets or xml files every time I need to know some Rev command. BvG Docu is better then the build in docu because of these (yay for bulletpoints): - faster - uses less screen real estate - only show specified entries (ie. only properties or only keywords and objects) - history that works - more links can be clicked - separate view for related - easier to navigate without mouse (at least on Mac OS X) - much more control about what to show for each entry (don't like the summary? Just leave it out) - more (but not total) control about font settings (size, fontname, italic) BvG Docu has these disadvantages to the build in docu: - no synonym search/filter - not sortable by version or compatibility - no reverse sort (always A-Z) - no glossary - no link to the pdf - no videos - no search stack, and thus no full text search - fixed place for the topics list, instead of two - no toolbar/menu integration (however there's miniMe) Both stacks share these disadvantages: - same data source (for example the entry for $ is missing in 2.8.0) - not made by you, so they might not fit your specific needs -- official ChatRev page: http://chatrev.bjoernke.com Chat with other RunRev developers: go stack URL http://homepage.mac.com/bvg/chatrev1.3.rev; ___ 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 ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription

I wanted to convert an old Hypercard stack but found out, that the manual doesn't seem to be correct anymore: Open Stack... Opens the main stack whose file you select. If you select a HyperCard file, it is automatically converted into a Revolution main stack. This does not work. I went back to version 2.5.1 an there it worked. Was that announced? ___ 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: Opening Sockets on localhost
so Dan, don't forget, that is one of the subjects we are waiting for good explanations from someone that can well explain (and some of us - I think - even already paid for it?) ;-) Till Am 16.03.2005 um 12:13 schrieb Alex Tweedly: Dan Shafer wrote: Alex. I got it. IOW, opening a socket doesn't work unilaterally. The server has to have a listener on that port first. Right? Right. When you open a TCP socket (i.e. open socket to host:port), a TCP connection is formed. A packet is sent from your machine's TCP stack to his, and he sends a reply (assuming some application has done accept connection on the correct port). If there is no-one listening on that port, the remote machine will either ignore the incoming packet, or send back a reject packet. When (if) your host receives a positive acknowledgment, then the connection is successful (from your point of view); your TCP stack then sends him back a third packet - and only when he receives it does he consider the connection complete. (He can't consider it complete until then, because there could be a problem getting his packets to you - the only way he knows that has succeeded is when you reply). You may hear this referred to as TCP's three-way handshake. Note that when you open a UDP socket (i.e. open datagram socket to host:port), things are completely different. UDP (datagram) is connectionless, so the open socket does not cause any network activity, and will generally succeed provided the host:port have valid values. I'm going to figure out this server stuff one of these days. And once you do, you'll realize how simple it all was to begin with, and wonder why no-one ever wrote a decent explanation of it in the first place.

Re: When's the Rest of Dan's Book Due?

Till Am 06.02.2004 um 17:41 schrieb Dan Shafer: During MacWorld SF in January -- at which every copy of my book that Rev could get to the show was sold by the third day -- Kevin and I discussed the publishing plan going forward. I had been studying the relatively recent development over at Adam Angst's TidBits operation with some interest. (FYI, if you don't know it, they are publishing small books focused on a single topic at $5 each and delivering in PDF format.) Kevin and I liked that concept a lot. And as you probably know I had already anticipated releasing chapters of my book to those who joined RevolutionPros.com at the Leader ($197) level prior to publication and free anyway. So what we've decided to do is to release the chapters of Volumes 2 and 3 incrementally. As I finish a chapter in draft, it will go to those who are Leader level members of my online community. They'll give me some feedback (hopefully) and then I'll do a final version and release it for sale at something in the $5 per chapter neighborhood. My plan is to release a chapter about every week or so, sometimes two in a week. Then when we have a full book-sized collection of chapters, we'll combine them into an immediately available PDF and Kevin will take them to print for distribution in hard copy format. This means you can buy only the chapters in which you are interested, when you are interested in them. Whether you buy the full book collection or not is up to you (unless, again, you are a Leader member in RevolutionPros.com, in which case you get it free anyway). Furthermore, I'm going to let the community help me decide the *order* in which to release the chapters. I'll be posting a complete list of the subjects on RevPros some time this weekend and allowing members there to vote for which ones they'd like to see sooner than later. I'll focus on those that get the biggest response *except* where I know something about a future Rev development or a third-party product that could change the chapter substantially. So to recap: chapter-by-chapter electronic releases first to my community, then to the community at large; books accumulated when critical mass dictates and released first electronically and then in print; order of things determined in large part by community voting. First chapter for Volume 2 -- which will cover CGI development and use -- next week.

Hi Alan. I remember talking with you at MacWorld, and look forward to discussing this in more detail this July. I think the big problem with writing a reports package, is coming up with something easy enough and powerful enough that developers use it. As Richard stated many apps need to print custom reports, and it may be easier to just roll your own. RunRev 2.0 features a new report generator, a powerful and well tested stack based report generator, and I'm not sure how many people have even tried it out. I wrote a report generator 5 years ago for MetaCard called the MetaCard Report Generator which featured fully customizable headers/footers, templates, a Full scripting API, ect, expressions, ect. http://www.xworlds.com/metacard/contributors/mcrg.htm I honestly don't know if anyone actually used it in an application, I got little to no feedback on it, and it never went out of beta. Perhaps it was too complex?! So I've moved to the conclusion that what we need is a report generator based on SQL along the lines of Crystal Reports, DBReports, and various other reporting packages, or even perhaps tighter integration with such packages. Along with things like step by step Query Wizards, prebuilt Templates, possible support for stacks as data sources, an Open extensible scripting API so developers can write their own printing modules, and additional integration with local databases (Access/Valentina) perhaps we can have the ultimate cross platform report generator in Rev.
