Heya Stam, not surprisingly, this has come up once or twice before (yes, I do weird stuff no one should expect to be done out side of a mad scientist's labratory) :twisted:

Re: browser still broken on linux, or just me?

I don't think it is just you, and I don't think it is fixed anywhere else. I personally have never gotten the browser to work in general on 'nix, I have read others *have* had some version of the browser work. I don't spend enough time (well, any really) in a version that has the browser, so am not ...

Re: visual effect "push Left"?

Well, I see you have your 'push left' in quotes, which isn't how it shows in my dictionary. I set up a stack with 2 cards on it, I put a field on one card, and a tab group on another. In the stack script, I put : on mouseUp visual effect push left go to the next card end mouseUp Seems to work as adv...

Re: Replace text of any characters between parentheses with a space

I dunno why regex gets on your nerves Richmond, it is no more or less than a few plain english symbols and the command as Jacque put it is certainly shorter than anything else that popped in so far. Orders of magnitude faster as well I wager. I keep meaning to get around to parsing it, but usually i...

Re: quick question... (show invisibles) [Solved]

There's no way anyone can associate that with a single individual. You might be surprised at what (previously thought) innocuous thing can personally identify someone. Every time I read about some thing I thought would never be able to be used to id someone, someone else figures out how to id you f...

Re: Replace text of any characters between parentheses with a space

How about “offset”. Use offset to find the “(“ the. “)” chars. Then delete the chars in between. Hee hee, I thought I said that :P This also apparently works ok... on mouseUp put "" into field 2 put field 1 into theSource repeat with x=1 to the number of characters of theSource wait 5 ticks with me...

Re: Replace text of any characters between parentheses with a space

Um, jsburnett, that will certainly take out parenthesis, but that was only part of the equation posted. I want to replace all text within in parentheses ( including the parentheses ) with a single space. I'm pretty sure you could do this easily with offset (character level to find the parenthesis an...

Re: separators in popup menus? [Solved]

The following is solely an answer to your question, not a slam, nor a disagreement with what you said, and in fact I can't say I had any problem at all finding the menu builder (but then, I more or less tore the entire original IDE apart as well, so take what you will from THAT :P ) How "hidden" is ...

In fact, the only time I don't use it literally is when I need to use a stack for a menu. I've setup about 9 di...
