[!AltME] Discussion about AltME

Sunanda......shhhhhhhhhhhhh, can't make it that clear...
Of, note, when we made the last back then, Carl updated this world, 
and we did indeed lose a bunch of info...
It was just bad timing.

My major frustration with AltMe is that scrolling isn't functional 
under Windows but it works under Linux.
If there is a long converstation ro long posts in a topic, I either 
have to switch from Windows to Linux or, if the topic is web-public, 
read it at rebol.net

Odd, I live on Windows, I'm not seeing this problem.  Do you mean 
scrolling with the keyboard?

The second major peeve is that clicking on http links and cut&paste 
to/from the Gnome clipboard doesn't work under Linux. So then I have 
to return to Windows.
Reichart: No with the scroll-bar arrows.
I have, always, found that when you have a lot of messages in a topic, 
one click on an arrow (up or down) will scroll past information no 
on the screen.
no on -> not on
The problem appears to be that the amount scrolled by one click seems 
to be determined by the size of the topic display.
Accurate scrolling requires dragging the scroll bar status block 
in minute steps which gets beyond my patience.


It probably works well if you have a scroll-wheel mouse - but I don't.

Is in Checklists - where else !!!
Is -> It's
I have reported the Linux link clicking and cut & paste via feedback.


I'm not sure about the scrolling --- so forgive me if I enter it 
again.

I don't see 10, but OK.  So there are two lists, New features, and 
Bugs basically.
I don't ever mind repeats.

One is old and empty -- the second I've just created :-)

Let me tidy them up.
There are now two AtlME checklists:

AltME Top Ten Peeves
AltME Top Ten Wishes
I'm sure that I've missed some of the peeves/wishes mentioned earlier 
but I didn't go back through all the posts.

what about parsing out email addresses to smoething (at) somewhere 
(dot) com ?
for web publishing
PeterWood

Isn't that more of a problem with Carl's script that publishes AltME 
on the web?
Perhaps a feedback to him at RT would the trick.

it probably is. I don't know how it works...
but it's also possible to publish through AltME manually.

Fair point - why don't you add it to the Peeves or Wishlist

speaking of that, formatting in HTML is quite bad. Timestamp takes 
up 20% of the page width, twice as much as needed.

seems that something like that happens
my email address was obfuscated a little

I seems I got a new AltMe 1.2.11.

I crashed when I tried to see the offered url with the new features.
It is more slow.

Of course, I didn't let the new versions install themselves.

I'm with Reichart here -- change nothing until the vote is unanimous 
:-)

is anyone else having trouble (re) starting a world on linux?  I 
have ports 5500 & 5400 open but it starting fails
iptables says 


ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere           state 
NEW tcp dpt:5500

ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere           state 
NEW tcp dpt:5400

Seems some people can't count.  The top 10 wishes are populated with 
over 10 !

There.  Fixed.
Graham

Remember .. Reichart says he will fix the top 10 agreed peeves .. 
if everyone can concur.
Regarding crash on recycle .. I don't think that bug exists in recent 
builds.  Has anyone seen it in a recent build??

Last I recall, you can still get it if you have the messages turned 
up above 5k or so.
I keep mine down below 1k most of the time so I don't have a problem
