Lets see if version 1.1.29 runs better...

Im still here.. ;-)

1.1.29? What is there? I was not offered and update - will try to 
restart :-)

Well... i just dowloaded thatone from the Altme website main page 
..

Its says on the webpage 3r.1.1 but its in fact 1.1.29

debian version

Intresting but irritating... Altme started from a Linux shell is 
able to be backgrounded.... ater starting Altme from the shell $./altme 
 you can background the altme process (3x processes) by pressing 
in the shell Ctrl-Z..Well that is commonly known.. But typing "jobs" 
doesnt show up anything.. also a "fg" doesnt work.. So actualy the 
Altme processes are currently roaming... Not quiet handy i would 
say..

then again.. it perhaps is... Closing the shell did not close Altme.. 
thats a good thing !

But now i need to Kill altme or gracefully close it from within altme...(as 
it should)

This is a pain!! doing a process on the Altme binary.. it does return 
i.e PID 4090.. but Altme is not on PID 4090 but on 4091 4092 4093.. 
So the main process is killed by altme or respawned.. Thats irritation 
, this means the above behaviour is unusable and thus a bug..

HA.. now it worked.. Im flabberG'ed..Ctrl-Z nog backgrounds the way 
it should..

Running altme with "Special Options" does create this error.. (1.1.29 
linux)

Install Error Info: make object! [

Reichart, I know this is on the "list" but do you think we'll ever 
see the Altme "minimize to the system tray/little window notifying 
one of a message." for windoze? My MS compadres insist that they 
need it. Bill Gates must put some kind of addictive substance in 
icon tray. But I guess once you get used to being notified that way 
it's a hard habit to break.

Mac Mail also does this (a red circle with a white number showing 
the number of new messages) ... a *very* handy feature.

A very handy (and not difficult, I guess) improvment on Altme would 
be to have an Icon near the search Icon to toggle sound alert on 
new message on or off.

Usually, you don't use it, but some times, you want to know if you 
have answers immediately and then, sound is nice.

The parameter is already in the config, so it's just to add a button 
at the top of the window to toggle it's value.

James, yes.  In fact we just wrote some of this for Qfile, and so 
we are testing it on multiple platforms.
Didier, good idea, logged.

Thanks, I still have hope.

: )

reichart, the bug I talked about with the message that came with 
disk full? It also shows when there's plenty of diskspace available, 
so it must be something else. I can't start OSX AltME at all now.

or it could be the result of disk running full, some files being 
corrupted and the bug still shows after disk space was freed, I don't 
know...

yep, watch out for zero-sized files.

Henrik, have you reinstalled?

no

Yes, Henrik, that hit me too (and affect IOS as well).

On the 1.1.28 version I occasionally get a "Server reported error 
in char because of: User does not exist." This comes after a period 
of inactivity and upon entering a new message. Once restarted or 
updated it is fine.

No minimize method for OSX beta?

Is this beta client using an old version of encap still?  I got the 
recycle error again.

Got the IOS daylight savings error in AltME...

Another old problem: in file sharing, files with spaces in the name 
are not loaded when their accompanying applications are started

At a colleague of mine, AltME destroyed itself when the disk was 
temporarily full

Logged.

Thanks. Did you also get my earlier report, that .JPG files are replaced 
with empty .jpg files?

On Linux

Yes.

Sorry that I forgot to post "logged"

seems that the ....

pencil button doesn't....

work too well in the latest beta for linux :-)

. [apologies for dotting, but I can see from rebol.net that I'm not 
synced in this group]

Altme 1.1.28 WinXP -> pressed a group after startup and got this 
-> Invalid data type during recycle
** Press enter to quit...

Previously in this group, Reichart has stated something like - it's 
a bug in Rebol not in Altme.

Hopefully the bug won't make it into Rebol 3.0

Ah yes oke..altme application does not come with any catch-info indeed....

that bug is probably gone in view 1.3 already.

I just saw a new (at least to me) bug in AltME.   After switching 
windows AltME didn't redraw the message area.  It was a solid gray 
(the color of the message seperation line) when I clicked on a message 
the message was redrawn and clicking in the poser column cause the 
entire message area to be redrawn.

Say, does anybody have an  AltME icon image that I can use on my 
Gnome desktop? I was thinking of making my own, but thought I'd check 
first.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before. Feature request: make backspace 
in a file sharing window go to the parent directory

Brain, I posted an icon in Qtask/Rebol-SIG

Perfect, Thanks

Feature request: make new folder permissions default to those of 
the parent folder
