Microsoft Word will accept data on the clipboard in any format. I've tried: UTF-7 UTF-8 Unicode EUC Shift-JIS (4 different variations) On Windows there must be a flag that says what format the clipboard is in (I don't know what happens with keyboard input, but there must be some sort of character type switch there too). The best InputInterpreter/ClipboardInterpreter would check the flag when available and use whatever format it's handed on a case by case basis. Joshua Scholar

Where would I post a BIG project?
by Joshua Scholar 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

I'm thinking of using the Edict dictionaries ( http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/j_edict.html ) to make a Japanese IME so that you can enter Kanji (chinese derived) characters from the keyboard. The Edict dictionaries are Japanese/English dictionaries, so other features are possible, like Japanese entry for english speakers that shows English meanings as well as choices of Kanji characters. What I'm wondering is this. I can't post a change set that's 20 megabytes (or however large the dictionaries would be after loading), and I can't tell the users to just download the dictionary from the Edict site because it's in EUC-JP format and needs to be converted to UTF-8 before it can be used... I have a word processor that can do that conversion, but I can't expect users to have that. By the way the licence seems pretty unconstraining. http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/groups/edrdg/licence.html

POP3Client behind a firewall
by German Arduino 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

Hi Guys: Trying to use POP3Client example in a common ADSL or dial-up internet connection works ok, but trying behind a proxy I get a "ConnectionTimedOut: Cannot connect to 66.54.152.7:110" (being the ip correct). Does exist some way to use POP3Client behind a proxy (as with HTTPSocket>>useProxyServerNamed)? TIA. gsa.

[BUG] 3.86461 85 obsolete classes from m17n work?
by Tim Rowledge 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

The 3.8 6461 image has 85 obsolete classes in it; all of them appear to be related to m17n type work. Names like AnObsoleteUnicodeCombiningDiacritical and AnObsoleteUnicodeMongolian are rather suggestive. tim -- Tim Rowledge, tim(a)sumeru.stanford.edu, http://sumeru.stanford.edu/tim It said, "Insert disk #3," but only two will fit!

Hard SmaCC question
by Russell Penney 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

Or maybe it's easy and I am just stupid ;) How would I go about parsing variable length data in SmaCC where the length of data to be read is specified by another part of data? i.e. "5Hello" where Smacc would read 5 as a number and then read X (with X = 5) characters. BTW please don't tell me there are other ways to do this; I want to see if I can do it in SmaCC ;) (I am learning about parsing) Thanks Russell

[ANN] Mac support in ExternalWebBrowser
by Alexander Lazarević 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

Thanks to Dominique Dutoit there is now a version of the ExternalWebBrowser package with Mac support on SqueakMap or SqueakSource. http://map1.squeakfoundation.org/sm/account/package/a2cf0479-a33d-456f-b3ed… http://kilana.unibe.ch:8888/ExternalWebBrowser/ExternalWebBrowser-dd.5.1.mcz From the version description: Adds support for almost all Mac OS browsers. Requires the Applescript package. If you have installed the ExternalWebBrowser package before installing the Applescript package, you will have to execute this command: ExternalWebBrowser initialize From the package description: This small package should work as an alternative to scamper. It just hands over every url to a platform specific external browser. Currently works on: * Windows (IE, Firefox) * Linux/Unix (Konqueror, Mozilla) * Mac (Requires Applescript package) Alex
