« Last post by mouser on September 26, 2005, 04:06 AM »
a lot of people entered for this one, winners were picked at random this morning, and everyone who entered was sent an email regarding whether you won or not.

if you didn't win a free copy, please don't feel bad, we will be having more drawings soon and your time will come if you keep entering :)

i guess it might be easier to keep track of if each bug was in its own thread..
but then maybe we might have so many threads that the forum software would crash  :-[

cliff - another great newsletter!!

i'd like to point out that personally i love how you tell us about the 2 programs that you didn't like and don't recommend!
most newsletters and things like yours just recommend apps and its a nice mix to have some programs that you really liked but also to hear about ones that you might have thought looked good but turned out they weren't  - very useful.

Living Room / Re: help with C......
« Last post by mouser on September 25, 2005, 09:41 PM »
it's a little hard to help with this over forum, but from looking at the file, it looks like your configure is not quite detecting what it should.

at the top of your config_file.c youll see this:

#if HAVE_STRERROR
extern int errno;
#  define error_string strerror(errno)
#elif HAVE_SYS_ERRLIST
extern const char *const sys_errlist[];
extern int errno;
#  define error_string (sys_errlist[errno])
#else
#  define error_string "error message not found"
#endif

so basically its looking for some special flags that tell it whether your compiler/OS knows about errno or not.
configure is supposed to set these - but it looks like its telling your compiler that it DOES know about errno, and then your compiler doesnt really know about it (or alternatively the wrong header files are not being included).

SO, there are a couple ways you might fix it more properly, but you could try a quick fix just to see what happens if you try changing
#if HAVE_STRERROR
to
#if HAVE_STRERROR_DISABLETEST

and
#elif HAVE_SYS_ERRLIST
to
#elif HAVE_SYS_ERRLIST_DISABLETEST

that will just tell it to not try to use errno in that file; if you get further errors in further files youll have to find a more proper solution.
ideally the best solution would be to find the header files defining errno if your system supports it or figure out how to get configure to properly detect your system config better.

ok i see what you mean about after renaming  - i will try to fix.

as for google side bar -
if you make the screenshot captor window really small and close and restart - what happens?
is it ignoring all window size change completely? or is it something else going wrong?

i'm having trouble reproducing the problem - window position and size is saved in mine.

brothers - are your other options settings being saved?  if not, then the problem is that none of your options are being saved.
can you do some experimenting and report back?

PopUp Wisdom / File Formats
« Last post by mouser on September 25, 2005, 01:02 PM »
I'm going to be adding support for some different standard file formats (like unix fortune file format which uses %), so if you find quotes and stuff in a slightly different file format don't bother trying to fix it yourself, just send to me and i'll make PopUp Wisdom able to read it.

PopUp Wisdom / New books wanted!
« Last post by mouser on September 25, 2005, 10:03 AM »
New books wanted for PopUp Wisdom!

These are just plaintext files with each quote/item on its own lines.

If you want to help make a book of quotes or sayings, or jokes, etc.
either your own stuff, or shareable stuff found on the web, please do and let me know ([email protected]) - i'd love to make it available for download.

I'd love to include a collection of RSI excercises or stuff like that (has to be plain text) - so if someone has a collection of that, i'd be especially interested.

Also would be nice to have some non-english files!

General Software Discussion / Re: Looking for a good Uninstaller App
« Last post by mouser on September 24, 2005, 04:46 PM »
i agree with carol -
i would NOT use one of these apps designed to remove all traces of an app as my normal way of uninstalling software!!

only as a manual aid to help you see any stuff left behind, and defintely you should be very careful letting such programs remove stuff unless you are sure you don't need.  better to leave stuff there if you arent sure.  it's like registry cleaners, they can do more harm than good if you aren't very careful, and only for people who know what they are doing.

i hate the add/remove control panel though and there is nothing wrong with using an alternative to that which does the same thing (ie runs the normal application uninstaller).   the nirsoft one is good, and i've for a long time used the free Chris Uninstaller (couldn't find website).  like i said before the only reason i use these is that they are faster and most importantly let me sort based on install date estimtes, which i find super useful and is missing from default add/remove control panel built into windows.

« Last post by mouser on September 24, 2005, 02:18 PM »
i agree with your instinct - i'm not sure how TU3 does uninstalls, but it seems to me that every uninstaller should FIRST run the application's built in uninstaller, and then only do more when asked.

i'm curious to hear opinions as well.
the nirsoft one has been mentioned before and suits me well but all i use mine for is to sort by date of install.

one app that has gotten some very glowing recommendations that i *still* have yet to try but keep meaning to is "Total Uninstall" (or is it total uninstallER?)

i'm looking forward to reading any follow up replies here.
