[ALLY] LED style Re:

Hi Allen Checked out your led demos, nice! But when I tried mine-sweeper, the right-click no longer marks the mines. Using Win98 View 0.10.27.3.1. Hope it can be fixed. Cheers -Larry

Hi Allen I ran led-mosaic.r for a couple of hours and used Norton Utilities System Information to monitor the memory. It started up at 5.01 MB. At first it looked like a memory leak, the memory went up to 6.04 MB in the first couple of minutes. But over the next 50 minutes, it only crept up to 6.10 MB. For the next hour it remained pinned at 6.10 MB. So the GC is working and, most likely the memory manager in REBOL/View has determined it likes to keep the memory at 6.10 MB. When I tried to get the new mines.r, I found that View exits to the console when I click on the "Sites" icon with the message Unrecognized parameter: #{0A89504E470D} Hmm... the other icons seemed to work OK. So I typed the rebolforces URL in directly and got the fixed version of mines.r. It would be nice if the control panel was able to detect whether downloaded files have change on a rebsite and update them automatically. Cheers -Larry

Hi Allies, My weekend has started, so I've just added a two small scripts that play with the new LED style to the RF rebsite. Amazing how many timer events can be handled in a layout now. Cheers, Allen K

Hi Larry, I missed a 'right-up to 'alt-up in the conversion. Delete the mines.r that is in your public cache. www.rebolforces.com folder. And grab it again. The version there now handles the right mouse. Also, has anyone else noticed a memory leak when dealing with time events? Leave led-strobe.r or led-mosaic.r running and watch the mem use climb. (Reb-Cam.r does the same too.) Cheers, Allen K

Hi Larry, On mine (Win2000 Celeron 333) it continues to climb, currently up to 17 meg.and still climbing at 4k - 8k per update (about 2 seconds) (in process window of Windows 2000 task manager). Only goes down again if the window gets minimised. I wonder if on slower machines the recycle doesn't get a sufficient time-slice to clean up properly. ? I have submitted it to feedback. Cheers, Allen
