Just wanted to say hello and that I'm back, due to rl struggles I had to put off my game project but things have smoothed out now. I'm looking forward to...
... Here are my thoughts on the subject .... I think unicode would be overkill for now, for most applications it would be easier (and simpler) to make the MUCK...
I got tired of waiting for someone else to fix this. Fixed the RawMWLevel thing as of CVS version 1.28 of db.c, put back the proper handling of cron_prog (1.19...
What you're asking for is probably doable. Right now the main obstical is the compression routine, that relies on that 8th bit being available. Our plans for...
In the case of the can of worms, that would more than likely have to do with the fact that not all fonts have the same 8-bit characters, and those that do...
Just a general question regarding Proto Muf, when you install a muf program is there a standard method to follow as far as what to set it as. Example: On some...
Yeah... there is no way to get a long int that I can think of with the existing options. All incoming socket data is getting shoved into a byte-block array,...
Generically speaking, you want to set the permission as low as you can that will still allow the program to run. It also depends on which permissions scheme...
I just noticed that using the maximum negative integer value (-2147483648) ends up pushing an integer value on the stack that doesn't appear as an integer but...
I was wondering if it would be possible to add a bitinvert primitive, which would basically be equivalent to C/C++/Java/etc.'s ~ operator. Basically, it just...
I was wondering if it would be practical to extend the 'this' word from the $ifalpha/$ifbeta/$ifver... selection of directives to $include so that I could...
Actually, this is more of a request for an alteration of existing directives. I noticed that $version and $lib-version record strings but require float...
Wow, I'm piping out a load tonight! I have the following suggestions to aid in registering programs (globally and locally): $register <name> - registers...
How simple it would be to implement partial matching support or multiple name matching (as is done for exits/actions via a semicolon delimited name) for...
Hey folks it appears I have a glince in proto page 2.551 modified by Moose, my : page pose is not working. Someone suggested I go back to version 2.54 but so...
For that, what you do is type 'page #setup' (I think that's the command if I remember right, if not then you'll find it throughout page #help somewhere). That...
Oh ok I'll give it a try :) ... From: "Chris Brine" <contikimoose@...> To: <protomuck@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2003 10:23 PM Subject:...
Hi folks I reset page muf and solved the : pose problem, now I have another one showing up when you delete a message. Could I get a muf programmer to assist me...
That's because the max negative INT is actually -2147483647, unlike MAX INT which is 2147483648. That's what's causing the int-to-string() routine to screw...
I'm not going to agree to the addition of these directives. It was something Moose and I argued on for some time, and now that it's solely my call, the answer...
I think you can easily accomplish the same thing using the BITXOR prim along with '1111.....1111'. Thus you could easily create a $def to handle this called: ...
Actually, integer values (32bit signed) on an Intel processor range from -2147483648 to 2147483647, according to several documented sources (one of which is ...
I've run across two strange but related quirks in v1.75. First is the fact that, contrary to documentation, I can use 'read' after a 'sleep' statement in a...
It's not a bug. Sleep is supposed to pause the program for the given number of seconds not put it into the background. It's how sleep has always worked since...
In Furscape ProtoMUCK OS-X 1.81b3 (Muck2.2fb6.00rc9 -- Neon2.17) I noticed that "help @lock" returns There is no help for "@lock" That is not right, there...
I don't know what to tell you. We're simply using the ol' C code standby of sprintf() to convert that number into the string that you see. If it's not giving...
... Yeah. The entry for SLEEP says that READ can't be used after it. That's an error in the docs. I believe it used to be the case that you couldn't use READ...
