N.A.N.Y. 2010 / Re: NANY 2010 Idea: A 'polite' reminder/diary system
« Last post by skwire on November 12, 2009, 12:46 PM »1-4. All good suggestions and added to my ToDo. I also plan to add user-configurable font choice.
5. The edit control has a standard menu of its own. How about if I add the Export entry to the File menu? That's where it typically is for most apps.
6. It's a liberty that I almost had no choice but to take; it makes thing much easier for me. I tried to keep it very simple though with only the section (§) marker to denote entries. If it ever came down to it through the ages, a simple search & replace would fix that in no time.
7. To clarify, you want each logfile exported to a separate text file, right?
8. It's on my buglist and should be squashed soon. Here's my logic flow:
* Keep track of the last archived time in the config.ini.
* On Anuran startup, compare that timestamp with the current time.
* If the interval exceeds the configured interval, archive immediately and update config.ini.
* From this point, archive on the configured interval timer.
Yes...I try not to lose sight of KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) when writing an application. Keep it tightly focused but still elegant and useful. I think I address the 'generic timestamp' issue when explaining point #8 above.

Other:
- I like how the entries are indented slightly. This is a Good Thing.
- I like how AnuVu presents log files. We're moving in a very good direction. With Anuran, we have a means of generating scads of user data. A searchable viewer gives that data a lot more meaning and use. It's a more crucial element than I thought it would be at first, and I'm glad you're working on it.
- Your thoughts on my 'generic timestamp' suggestion above? (https://www.donation....msg184295#msg184295)-doctorfrog (November 12, 2009, 11:43 AM)
