oh yes! it reads the .txt files off the Panther site! it constantly checks for signal, can tell you if your version of the project is no longer the newest and recommends an update, makes a connection to the ref.txt file and that file contains links to the other files so that we can change them and add and take away files without anything breaking. It's just getting round to finding the file latest_news.txt by searching for the name in the ref file.

it's working pretty well actually!

DARN YOU! I WUZ MAKIN DAT!

Well I have the code... If you want...

Wait... I didn't use tect files, I used the minifeed. It reads the most current post.

Then continue the mini-feed version.
What happened to NxIII's photo viewer on the pictures page?

has anyone looked at the poll lately?
1st) mesh functionality
2nd)Advanced pen tools
3rd)EXE project sharing
other:
4)File system
5)server actions
6)activate turbo speed, paint new costume
7)BYOB support (ask jens!)
8)Variable Saving
9)higher levels of list flexibility... especially show/hide lists and letter cases

1) already have it (I fixed the hosting? block)
2) The problem is that the pen simply doesn't store the trails in a way to erase them 1-by-1 (but I bet I can fix this)
3) Well that's an S.E.P. (If you haven't read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, that stands for Somebody Else's Problem)
4) I already have that (did I finish all the blocks?)
5) What?
6) turbo speed I will do in a minute, see my footnote, and paint new costume already exists
7) I am doing something a bit different from BYOB, I don't like the limitations imposed by the BYOB style of coding. Basically, it looks like the project notes dialog with a different font and a button at the top labeled 'Blocks...'. When you click the 'blocks...' button a menu comes up with all categories, then all the blocks in the category you selected. When you click it, it inserts the Squeak syntax for calling the function with the default arguments. You can also enter Squeak code like 'ifTrue: ... ifFalse:' or some other message that is not a block itself.
8) Um.....save the project or save stuff to a text file (might not work in presentation mode, see footnote)
9) show/hide lists exist, and I don't know what you mean by letter cases

FOOTNOTE: Because of those darn 'OffscreenWorldMorph's and their self-deleted subMorphs, accessing the ScratchFrameMorph is not as easy as 'ownerThatIsA:' because the owner that IS a ScratchFrameMorph has completely removed itself from anything and everything in the Scratch world. So basically, I have to put separate support for presentation mode in every single message that uses the ScratchFrameMorph (there are a lot)

Good morning everyone!

yes, you did, the (line(n)of file[s]) block does not work when I want to use it (the one for url files does) and a <file [s] exists?> block would be very useful.

Sperry, If you're reading this, I'm going away from PC for the newsreader. for simplicity.
here's how it works. file specified fo the newsreader called newsreader.
following is a line of text, with no parsers except capital commands that insert variables into the text such as TIME DATE UPDATEIF (causes the newsreader to remind you that a newer version is availiabe IF a new one is avaliable) and UPDATE which always tells you wether you need an update or not. SPACE or a number go on the next line to wait for the space key or that many seconds.

example:
info:
IAm:speechfile
Panther1.0

hello and welcome to another Panther news broadcast.
2
Today saw the release of PantherOnline1.0
4
and UPDATE (* would say and It looks like you need an update*)
3
that's all for today.
END

Can I help???

I have a few hacks. Download my Image file!
Hack my version for the code!

That's....um.....my old Scratch image.... um.... uh.... er........with flip.... um...

And it violates the ToS in a bunch of ways.

nXIII, what about a way to change the background colour of a watcher? the orange never seems to go with many colour themes in project, so choosing a more complimentary colour would be nice

I will do that, but not right now: I'm working on the new block editor.

Ok, I don't mind, It's not that I wanted you to use PC or PCL.

Are you still interested in them (PC and PCL) though? Because I need good ideas for it and you seem to be the best for good ideas!
