World: r3wp

Aye, I'm fairly certain that that is what the Depot folder is about 
and they are going to be giving us info on it soon...

SDK moved.

thanks

sorry about the s's above...was keying commands to an emulator and 
AltME focus grabbled them...

I spent a few clock cycles on them thinking it was some puzzle.  
then something else shiny caught my attention.

Yep Brian, that's it.


I'm gonna try something.. I was looking around the AltMe folders, 
and found a file that looked like all it contained were dividers. 
 I'll copy AltMe to a new folder (backup) and copy the Worldmaster 
one over my Custom on

Well, AltMe didn't error, but it didn't change any dividers, either.. 
 oh well

your welcome to mess with AltME's folders....but don't cry when something 
odd happens.

We plan to clean it up, and write a paper that explains it all, for 
example, you can actually dump all your grpahics, and then replace 
them all.

Skinning AltME is actaully pretty easy.  But not fully tested.

I got another request that I think will be cool.  Add a private option 
to the calendar so that it can be run in a local mode so that the 
data isn't shared.  I would think it would be easy to add it since 
the calendar is already created.

Also, any chance of getting a standalone version of that Calendar 
:-)

assumming the next version of alrme allows multiple worlds open, 
I would like to be able to set which (if any) notifies you when it 
gets a message posted.

Reichart, I made two copies of the AltME folder just in case something 
did mess up  ^.-

Paul, both are planned for the future AltME.

Tomc, yup, planned.

Izkata............ :)

note: I don't tell you guys what is planned to annoy you, just in 
case it was taken that way, I just try to give you feedback so you 
know a) I'm listening, b) if we don't have it to add it to feedbackl.

just out of curiousity... assuming skinning is supported..

is it skinning on a world-by-world basis?

no, you can skin your own view.

prefs/prefs.txt, in the main altme dir, contains an entry "skin-dir: 
none"

So it looks like it applies globally.

Has anyone had any problems with getting Altme working thru a proxy?

I go out of town once a month, and have to use a squid proxy.  I 
can get IE, Firefox, and one of my own rebol apps to work thru the 
proxy, but not AltME.

Have you filed in all the proxy settings?  I'll assume so............perhaps 
you can send me all your settings so we can try to figure out why 
it might not work.

Yes, I did.  And when I close Altme down, and restart it, the settings 
are always corrupted.

There's no way to set the gateway in the proxy settings .. is that 
important ?

could be.

I just checked my own implementation .. I don't set the gateway and 
it works fine.

Proxies are one of those things where every company has a slightly 
different way of  getting bent out of shape about some format, so 
we figured we would test for one path, and then leanr what everyone 
else complained about.

I've got squid set up at home .. I'll try it on that first.

but the data gets munged.  That isnot good.

the squid setup at home is just to control the kids' internet access.

I get the proxy ip address, type and port appear on the proxy server 
field.

cant get altme running on redhat v9.x ... is that normal?

it loads, but gives me a script load error, as if it was not able 
to decrypt the code within...

and obviously returns to prompt...

gave feedback over a week ago, but still no reply...

We are looking.

looking for the bug?

I mean... does it work on other redhat releases?

it runs on redhat workstation 3 and doesnt dump cores till you exit

Lots of people run Linux Redhat, but each flavour simply complicates 
things.

any knoen libs, packages or compile options  which must be set for 
it to work?

note: rebol/view runs fine on those systems

knoen = known

Not that I'm aware of.

is it a generalized SDK issue?  I am thinking of using SDK on those 
machines... do you think its bound to fail?

my instalation is strictly vanilla default

Could.

darn !
