Sunanda 23-Apr-2007 [2419] | Reichart: <It seems to be connected to JavaScript heavy sites.> I've seen the problem on non/low JS sites -- though I don't know if the problem was triggered by hitting an earlier JS infestation. |
[unknown: 9] 23-Apr-2007 [2420] | I plan to keep running Opera on a regular bases. I think there are more features than I'm seeing so far, but in a nutshell: - Separate Universe: Having a "another" browser is a good way of keeping things sepeate. For example I might use Opera for my Qtask test accounts, and for checking up on some "grouping" of sites, since Opera is good at opening multiple tabs at start up (although it should stagger them since this is one of the speed hits). - Cache: It seems to auto pull a page it decides is the last version. I'm not sure how it decides this yet. But if I figure it out, this is a cool feature. - Magic wand: Great feature. It should have its OWN password. In other words. Andy, Billy, and Carry, all use the same computer. There are a lot of families that do this. IT would be nice to group your log ins to the same sites (AB and C all have separate Yahoo account, and separate Amazon accounts). So they can basically Log in first with Opera, then go to town. Even better would be an online service for this. Can't wait for Identity 2.0. - Overview: Opera has this cool feature of showing you a 3x3 grid of thumbnails of you fav sites. This is cool. So cool I want to see if there is a plug in for FF for this too.- |
Gabriele 23-Apr-2007 [2421] | reichart, i have seen a FF extension that does that, but i didn't try it (so i don't remember the name either) |
[unknown: 9] 23-Apr-2007 [2422] | I will track it down. |
Mchean 25-Apr-2007 [2423x6] | Reichart Opera is almost my only browser. I find it very fast. Some sites (such as HP's PC sales) don't display correctly. Voice is a very cool feature, though right now its just a novelty for me. I think the tabl implementation is the best i've seen (and it was there long before foxfire and ie) |
oh and skinning! -- i'm using the tango skinning and it is very agreeable | |
oh and the new quick-dial is cool | |
the irc client is passable, the news reader is good, though i prefer using a separate rss reader. exporting bookmarks and moving them to another computer is easy. | |
on a related topic, does anyone know of a browser that can preserve its environment between machines? I would like to continue browsing where I left off at work at home | |
it would be cool to have the option to save the session somewhere online and then open it on another pc | |
Joe 26-Apr-2007 [2429] | reichart the best FF extension for that if ShowCase |
Micha 26-Apr-2007 [2430] | why my code not work ? REBOL [ title: "hook Mouse" ] user32: load/library %user32.dll Kernel32: load/library %Kernel32.dll ; const WH_MOUSE: 7 mouseHook: 0 GetCurrentThreadId: make routine! [ return: [integer!] ] Kernel32 "GetCurrentThreadId" SetWindowsHookExW: make routine! [ idHook [integer!] lpfn [callback! [int int int return: [int]]] hmod [integer!] dwThreadId [integer!] return: [integer!] ] user32 "SetWindowsHookExA" MouseProc: func [ code wParam lParam ] [ print code ] hThreadId: GetCurrentThreadId SetWindowsHookExW WH_MOUSE :mouseProc 0 hThreadId halt |
Oldes 26-Apr-2007 [2431x2] | try to use lpfn [callback [int int int return: [int]]] |
but i'm not sure what it should do | |
[unknown: 9] 26-Apr-2007 [2433] | Mchean, what is the "table feauture?" Joe, thanks for ShowCase. |
Gregg 26-Apr-2007 [2434] | I haven't used callbacks in REBOL, but that might work. SetWindowsHookEx expect a pointer to a C func, which a REBOL func is not, so that won't work. Low level integration with the OS is not REBOL's strong suit. There is a lot you *can* do, but also a lot you can't. |
Mchean 26-Apr-2007 [2435] | sorry Reichart mistyped "tab" |
[unknown: 9] 26-Apr-2007 [2436] | Ah, Tabs are the same in FF and Opera and IE 7 (now) |
Cyphre 14-May-2007 [2437] | Gregg: I can confirm SetWindowsHookEx works with Rebol's callbacks. |
btiffin 11-Nov-2007 [2438] | It's Rememberance Day here in Canada. Lest We Forget. I'd just like to state my appreciation for the efforts of those that strive to keep harm away by deliberately placing themselves in harm's way, for all those that have paid the ultimate dues for our freedoms and security and to all their loved ones. To anyone that has done service; you have my respect, admiration and thanks. |
Louis 23-Dec-2007 [2439] | Merry Christmas to all of you, my friends here on the rebol3 world! |
Jarod 23-Dec-2007 [2440] | Same to you too! |
Louis 23-Dec-2007 [2441x2] | Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. |
Thanks, Jerod! | |
Ashley 23-Dec-2007 [2443] | John Lennon - Imagine Imagine there's no Heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one |
Louis 24-Dec-2007 [2444] | Ashley, if you really, truly, honestly, don't want to own any possessions (I mean you're not just joking, but actually believe what you quoted), please send your Apple computers to me. :>) Merry Christmas! |
PeterWood 24-Dec-2007 [2445x2] | Ashley, before you send your Macs to Louis, please could yuo send me an OS X 10.3 CD if you have one. I'm desparate to get off 10.2.8 :-0 |
desparate !!! Have you got a typing tutor too? | |
sqlab 24-Dec-2007 [2447] | Merry Christmas to the believers and to the unbelievers, heretics and apostates too.) |
GiuseppeC 24-Dec-2007 [2448] | Merry Christmas from Sicily too ! |
Anton 24-Dec-2007 [2449x2] | That norad santa just passed over Christmas island a minute ago. |
I just happened to look at it at the right moment. Merry Xmas ! | |
Sunanda 24-Dec-2007 [2451] | Cool Yule to you all. |
Gregg 26-Dec-2007 [2452] | Felicitations to all! |
Sunanda 30-Dec-2007 [2453] | print ["happy new year for" to-integer (10 ** 3) + (10 ** 3) + (2 ** 3) "to us all"] (There's a second way to do that as the sum of three positive integers cubed. Try it!.) |
Gregg 9-Jan-2008 [2454x2] | Has anyone done a "glossy tabletop" reflection effect in DRAW? That is, you have an image, it's full size is reflected 0x1, and alpha-grads away vertically. |
I'm thinking I'll have to have a reflection face and draw into that separately. | |
Reichart 9-Jan-2008 [2456x2] | There are many ways to do that. Show image Show image upside down below it. Put alpha gradiant of table colour in front of that. It will alos look a lot better if you add a feathered ellipse near the base of the highlight colour from the image. |
Another way is: Show image Show image upsaide down, but just the top 1/4 for example. Do an alpha fade on the image (if you have that funciton) Do the same shadow trick of the ellipse. | |
Gregg 9-Jan-2008 [2458] | I was hoping for existing code. :-) I already have the flip bit, but then couldn't find a draw command to let me alpha a four-point spec'd image. I figure I'll have to do it with two faces, which is OK. |
Oldes 10-Jan-2008 [2459] | Does anybody know where I can find some typographic rules where to break a line in english language? For example I guess that I should not leave A or AN at the end of line, am I right? |
Sunanda 10-Jan-2008 [2460x2] | Take a look at how TeX does it? http://defoe.sourceforge.net/folio/knuth-plass.html |
Or look up "word wrap" in wikipedia for some other pointers | |
Oldes 10-Jan-2008 [2462x2] | so there is no Rebol script yet? :) |
And the algorithm is not typographic... it's just breaking lines to have the best spaces left. I'm looking for typographically correct one. Or there are no such a rules in english? | |
Sunanda 10-Jan-2008 [2464] | As far as I know, no....English can break at any word. Most of the rules are for how to hypenate if a word needs to be broken at a line end, eg: http://www.bartleby.com/141/strunk.html#8 |
Graham 10-Jan-2008 [2465] | didn't Gabriele do some work on this with pdf-maker ? |
Gabriele 11-Jan-2008 [2466x3] | oldes, hypenation algorithms is what you are looking for. TeX has probably the best one (at least for english, but i think it works for most if not all western languages). |
line breaking comes *after* hyphenation. | |
(in TeX i mean) | |
