I need help in improving a parsing function in an intended downloadable freeware diary standalone With the help from others, many years ago, a setup was accomplished, where parsing for ocurrences of a word ( or a pictogram) in the accumulating mainstack of daycards were/are placed (and accumulated) ...

Dear Livecoders I write to you concerning an application, which I have developed ( with several helpers) . The nature of this application, which is meant to be freeware and primarily as standalones, is explained in detail in www.phenomenalog.dk. I have personally been using this diary-program every ...

Thank you so much. I made a button with your script, and used it 4 times and ending with just 70 cards I moved it via extern hard disk to my new airbook , where it now opens without problems, in contrast to before where livecode rejected it.
Gratefully your Kresten

Examining my live-code designed Diary on my Mac BookPro i understood, that the central substack (of daycards) is saving the previous daycard the moment a new daycard is produced. Presently the result is an accumulation of 2070 daycards !!! As the content anyhow is added to a html file (through which...

Thanks to both of you. "So maybe you want to create and use (fill with files) your folder(s) in -> specialfolderpath("documents")" Yes, apparently necessary ! But I am afraid I need detailed help in following this advice. Optimally the standalone shall create a folder "Phenomenalog" containing a) fo...

Hi Klaus My application is freeware, so ADMIN permission should be implicit. I am a little unsure about your use of the term "resources" Does this just mean that my line open file destination &"/"& parsings &"/"& filename (in the LC environment) shall be open file specialfolderpath("parsings")&"/"& ...

In a standalone with a selected "move substacks to individual files", permitting user to accumulate data in substacks , I found the option to include folders, and have thus included two named but empty folders meant to accumulate A) html files ( from parsings) and B) jpg files (from screenshots). Ho...

Dear Paul I am impressed, that you manage to help your local firedepartment-. I only know about forest fires from tv. How terrible and overpowering they must be. I dont wish you to waste a minute from those efforts. Meanwhile I have reflected about the possible collaboration we could have. In a way ...

Dear Paul
I have also been busy with other matters, including repairs on the script of the full diary-application, which I am looking forward , hopefully, to share with you. I can see that this may take , perhaps, yet another couple of weeks
best regards

Dear Paul I hope you will excuse me for giving you the impression that the version 21.1 I have brought up in this forum could be downloadet from the phenomenalog site , I am sorry , but what you have downloadet must be an installer for the standalone of the 19.7.5 version (and the 12 glyph-fonts). A...

Dear Paul I really appreciate your performing the experiment. Just deleting the new card line put the results of all parsings in in one card, but by introducing the new card line in the beginning of the script it functions in producing new cards with searching and occurrences . However the occurrenc...

Hello again. I have , without success, tried and tried repairing the scipting of the basic parsing handler of my freeware diary program, It strucked me, that the optimal solution would be if I could lure /tempt / entice one of you to recieve and inspect a copy of the program as is. The uncompressed ...

Hi Dunbarx and bogs I have been away for some days, now trying to understand your advices. the line "if short name of this card && the foundchunk is start then" was meant to put an end to the scanning when the first occurrence is re-met on phenoparse global phenodate,cue,start,hitcard ask "Which wor...

I tried to give a more precise title to the topic and a clearer description of the setup. Also the version of the script was slightly modified. I am too ignorant to find help in Your question about a single line in the handler . I hope you or other visitors could suggest ways to elaborate the script...
