World: r3wp

The above is handled as an email address (likely due to the fact 
there is an @ in the address).  Not sure if this is Rebol or AltME 
- haven't checked yet.

Checked - It's AltME.

reichart, sorry for reveiling the secret   ;-)

:) Maxim, "reveiling" should mean "re-hiding".  I am sure you meant 
"revealing". :)

yes... typo...

Features:

9) Ability to set how far back you want to have 'Red' groups highlighted. 
 For example, you are a new user and downloaded a years worth of 
content, but only want to see the last two weeks of contributions.

Yet another wishing feature:
     World [ Subject]

Sometimes there is more than one subject going on at the same time. 
 This will allow you to focus on the Subject you want..  = )

Please elaborate...

Look at the world networking ... you can see arie asking a question 
 that is different from maxim.  So far it is hard to find out what 
was the last response to maxim ( unless you read all the way down 
to the last answer on that world  ).

If you could separate them by topics it would be a lot easier know 
the last answer for maxim or arie. You can focus better on the question 
(or answers).

somthing  like networking [/subject question user message time]

sorry if i mistyped i am new learning rebol =)

If we can understand it, it's good enough  (^.-)  And that idea is 
a pretty good one, actually - similar to the [subject] blocks we 
use in the mailing list

like a thread without branches basically.. I forgot to put that in 
my wish list... it would have been # 1

Got it.

1. Ability to adjust fonts/size

2. Tabbed world browsing. One Altme window showing multiple worlds 
tabbed, rather than an app running for each world.

3. Optional, Show as icon on task bar when running. rather than taskbar 
list. (like winamp options)

This seems to be something to fix/change - AltME couldn't connect 
a few minutes ago, and IE wouldn't load any websites - I ran Ad-Aware 
and removed 17 tracking cookies.  As soon as they were gone, IE worked 
-and- AltME connected..

Is Rebol or AltME dependant on Internet Explorer?

Nope.   They are probably systemic, and AltME is caught by it.

Next time that happens I'll need to experiment a little..

Yup.

check your hosts file .. some viruses alter the hosts file which 
can prevent internet activity

whish-list: mark a message for other people. kind of headlines in 
a group. idea: if we fill an important group with chat, we could 
mark up the topic-entries later. like "Carl: about syntax:".

Easier to go through the important notes for him.

Any reason why REBOL3 was down this time?

I'm waiting to find out also.

was this global? or was anyone able to log-in?

I don't think that anyone was able to log into REBOL3 but there were 
other AltME worlds running and working...

This time it was not Safeworld, but Rebol.net or DNS problem.

Yup.

Has anyone experience that AltME just stops receiving messages? If 
I leave my PC on over night and come back the next day, sometimes 
it just show that nothing has come in, but its still connected. If 
I reconnect, tons of messages come pouring in.

'dot' it


whenever u feel that AltMe or the world is a bit too quiet.. send 
a dot to yourself..or to some group

And when that doesn't work, logon as guest, let it resync, then log 
on as yourself again.
It helps kick start the stalled syncing

... ahh, that's what the "dot" group is for ;-)

Dotting to the dot group may resync some public groups.

In addition, dotting to yourself may resync some  private messages 
to you.
Doing both is not guaranteed to get you all missing messages.

great to know ;-(

Is Altme already infected by the rebol mail list problems?

:-)  Email may, as Carl says, be dead.

But these problems show that the alternatives are not yet out of 
the post-natal incubator.

Yup, I clearly see that, but then, I still like email ;-)

I thought that's what the 'dot' group was for... Funny how Dot Fever 
starts whenever there's a new world  =^þ

And I though loss of sync only happened at startup. Strange how this 
has only occurred recently for me.

Need a paging feature whereby we can click on a persons name and 
have it play a wav file on their computer to get their attention 
and flash.

If anyone knows a good chat client has altme like features of self 
archiving dialogue and paging features please let me know as I have 
some immediate needs for that.

Paging could be abusd : )

Isn't paging control by the fact that the person has thier speakers 
on?

but you can as well ring with the telephone, abusable too? ;)

Messenger Plus adds a bubch of extra features on top of IM .. http://www.msgplus.net/
. Be careful on the the install and opt out of the install "spyware" 
option. I haven't kept up with latest IM, so I don't know how many 
of this guys original idea have been rolled back into IM. But in 
terms of paging, you can trigger different sounds via messenger plus

Riechart - add an ignore feature - ignore all except on buddy list 
or something like that.  Yes paging would require speakers I assume 
or flashing the screen as some do.

First time I have this error :
** Script Error: Invalid compressed data - problem: -3
** Near: script: decapsulate
if none? script
** Press enter to quit...

It was at startup.

coloring of active groups are very hard to see for me on this monitor. 
the red color blends too much with black for me. it would be nice 
if there was a graphical indicator such as a dot next to the group 
to better see which group has been updated.

One nice thing would be, if some userdata would be saved along with 
my login, like colours, and read messages in the different groups. 
I just now installed altme on a new computer, and I have to fill 
in all of this.

Another thing would be it it would be possible to save the "most 
interesting folders" the ones I have used most in the last time, 
and to sync them first.
