Merry Christmas to everyone! I hope i can release a new version this week, just before New Years Eve. Best wishes Stefan / AH

hi! then, i think, we found the solution. it's a driver problem and not NDNs, if even the DOS copy command also doesn't work if you want you can try to contact the DOSLFN developers about that problem (if possible). they may have a solution. at the very end, you might send me your boot disk and i could try to find the problem. but i cannot guarantee when or if i can solve it. Stefan / AH

hi haman! it should be possible to call macro from macro, i will try to implement it (are you sure this worked in previous DN? the latest DN i used doesn't support this...) holding CTRL key to repeat the macro shoould be no big problem (in fact, i just implemented it into NDN in university...) what about this idea: if you hold ALT you will be prompted to input a number which tells NDN how often to repeat the macro about the speed: it won't be possible to be as fast as the old DN but, it should be possible to improve the speed hope this is what you want :) Stefan / AH PS: Sorry for the long delay, but i couldn't post to the board...

Hello! there are a few things you might try: a) use another file manager and try if it works B) try to disable the long file names in NDN c) try the last beta versions (last one is 4950) if this doesn't help, post again Stefan / AH

Hi! Thanks. Stefan / AH

Hi Dan! i copied your requrests to the todo list! Stefan / AH

Hi Dan! I just tried in W2K and WXP and cannot reproduce this. I guess this is just another "dandv-Special". :) Stefan / AH

hi garl everything is possible :) but, i don't know how much work/modification to the TV RTL would be needed to do this and there are more important things i have to do i'll put it to the list Stefan / AH

hi haman! i have written it down sounds like another option to me :) thank you Stefan / AH

does this also happen on creating and deleting dirs in \\192.168.0.3\Users\Dan\? or only in \192.168.0.3\Users\? cannot test the second behaviour... Stefan / AH

Hi everyone! Another beta because you have waited so long for the last one, and because I am quite busy with assignments at the moment that i want to release the current one. There are not much visible news, but a lot of internal enhancements. One thing that is not mentioned in the whatsnew and the docs is the possibility to browse and to work with directories and files (mkdir/rmdir/cd ../cdup...) on the FTP (and basically every other active VFS in future...). I didn't add this to the docs yet because it's not complete and maybe unwanted by many of you, so at the moment it's just for you to test the possibilities... -------------------------------- [*] Option options.File Manager.Setup."!:!\!.! in Listfiles" is enabled by default (Dandv) [*] F7 tree.makedirectory doesn't ask for confirmation anymore, it only appears in the copy/move process (Dandv) [A] SYNTAX HIGHLIGHT: [-] ColorKeywords 2 color combos didn't work correctly (Garl) [A] -> highlite.TKeyColorsCollection.SearchIn COMMANDLINE [-] (after) execution of EXTENSION FILE commands the first command of this list was put to the cmdline (D32/LNX) and to the history [A] -> dnexec._ExecFile/_SearchExt -> only commands from EXTENSION FILE which are one line long will be put to the history [+] complete CmdLine status can now be saved on exit -> Option: Options.Configuration.Command line.Save status on exit -> added cmdline.TCommandLine.Load/Store to dnutil.TDNApplication.Retrieve/SaveDesktop and commands.oclSave -> removed CmdLine handling from sk.__Store/RetrieveDesktop and histries.LoadCommands -> Improved cmdline.TCommandLine.HandleEvent [+] Options.Configuration.Command Line: added "Don't-handle-cmd" character inputline and the option "Always handle commands" (oclAlwaysHandleCmds) -> if enabled every command will be handled, this is the old behaviour but may not be wanted by some because there will be a lot of commands handled in future -> if disabled, commands preceeded with the "Don't-handle-cmd" character will not be handled internally by NDN -> used in dnexec._ExecCommandLine -> Default character is space (20h) LFN [+] extended the DOS file attribute constants: mirrored in LFN, with added 'fa' ID at the beginning of the string. -> added faUpDir (..) and faCurdir (.) for faster parsing after a lFindFirst/lFindNext. Filled in in lfn.lFindFirst/lFindNext by lfn.AdvancedAttr -> with TFileRec always use QSort.IsUpdir, faCurDir must never occur in any panel file list [*] Updated IllegalChars/IllegalCharSet and added SquashChars according to tests in the 4 supported operating systems (Dos/W9x/WNT/LNX) -> several characters are not quoted anymore (+ in LNX/W32 f.ex.) FILE COPY/MOVE/OPEN/CREATE/DELETE [+] added filescol.TFileRec.Options.frTemp0/Temp1 to remove usage of the file attributes in filecopy for marking a finished operation on the given file [*] copy to *: works like TEMP: -> filecopy.CopyDialog [-] MkDir: ,; in names didn't work. Support for creating multiple directories with "" too. [NC] -> Tree.MakeDirectory FILE PANEL [+] added filescol.TFileRec.Options.frSizeKnown to vfs_drive/arc/arvd so we won't use the file attributes anymore to store this info -> filescol.NewFileRec.set always for files -> used to mark if a directory size has already been calculated [-] LNX FIND: Entire disk/all drives search work -> vfs_find.FindFiles -> NOTE: because LINKS are not correctly handled yet there are problems with linked directories (recursion!) [*] filescol.btFileRec: added frIsDizDisposable, removed TDiz.IsDisposable -> FILESCOL.PAS FLPANELX.PAS VFS_ARVD.PAS VFS_DRIV.PAS [*] removed doubled code from flpanelx.CommandHandle, because it's the same in flpanel.HandleEvent: kbIns/kbspace, kbDel, kbUp/Down, kbHome, kbEnd, cmScrollBarChanged [+] W32 added Context Menu to Utilities Menu [+] added Fast Rename to File.Single Menu [*] LNX Panel.Setup columns "Show short name in low case" is OFF -> startup.ColumnsDefaults?.Nameopt 5a instead of 5b [*] Filenames with extension > 3 weren't cut correcty with the following options: Panel.Columns setup [X]AlExt,AlShExt,Sh>Nm [ ]Sh>Ext -> filescol.NewFileRec.replaced (and removed) _extlen with LenExt [C] VIRTUAL FILE SYSTEMS (VFS) [+] ALL: Added VFS commandline handler "HandleCmdline", called with command cmVFSHandleCmdLine from dnexec._ExecCommandLine. It's sent to the top file panel. -> moved the existing CD and drive change code to the base class TDrive -> this creates the possiblity to "execute" VFS based commands on the cmdline [-] if in a VFS (*: f.ex) another "*:" command was sent to the OS and not handled by NDN [A] [+] FTP: enter an FTP URL on the commandline and NDN will automatically connect to it with the default options [+] BRANCH: also collect directories, with [CTRL-SHIFT-H] (Dandv) -> vfs_find.OpenDirectory.CollectDirs [+] FIND FILE: added option to ignore SFN in search [DNOC] (Dandv) -> LFN chars ,;.become SFN char _ (*_* finds a,b.txt) -> search for ~ finds all SFN of LFN -> enabled by default [-] FIND: found files from archives didn't correctly react on [sHIFT-ENTER] (goto to file in passive window) [DNOC] -> flpanelx._CtrlPgDn: rearranged [sHIFT-ENTER]/Handle archive code -> flpanelx.cmFindGotoFile: added archive handling (ARC:|) [-] FIND: files from/inside archive not handled correctly (View...) [DNOC] -> flpanlex.ViewFile: arcdrive wasn't handled correctly (Exit before Usefile) KEYBOARD [-] W32 ALT-Y and ALT-Z were mixed up on (f.ex.) german keyboards, QWERTZ vs. QWERTY [NOC] [-] W32 [ALT-SHIFT-/] didn't work and [ALT-GRAY /] reported the same keycode [V] (used in cmdline mode change) TURBOVISION: DIALOGS/MENUS [-] Window.List/Close all (cmWindowManager/cmClearDeskTop) were disabled when not in File Manager (Vladimir Bochkarev) [NC] -> removed from commands.PanelCommands and added to views.twindow.SetState -> could remove the WindowManager calls from following modules: microed6, edcom.dnr, dbfview, fviewer [-] Window.List in editor popped up 2 times [A] (see above fix) -> removed cmWindowManager from editor commandlist ENVIRONMENT HANDLING [*] Several improvements to the environment switch "NDN=": -> help, language, dialog, xlat, color files are always read from the NDN home directory (*.hlp, *.lng, *.dlg, XLT\*.xlt, COLORS\*.pal), these files cannot be moved to another directory and don't react to the above switch (dnutil.cmHelp, dnapp.OpenResource/InitLngStream) -> NOW useful in multi user environments -> updated the help file TVHC/HELP [*] English: replaced word "Commando" with "Command" (Dandv) [*] English: several updates to the help file EDITOR [-] Opening files under cursor didn't load and cleared existing histories [A] -> happened when paths weren't configured and the file was in the current directory -> dnutil.EditFile.LFExpand ALARM CLOCK [-] crashed after deleting entries (Dandv) [NC] -> alarmclk.TDates.ProcessItems: DateCount >= Count-1 -------------------- Have fun, Stefan / AH

hi! this is fixed in the next version (tomorrow!) Stefan / AH

hi i decided to contact them if the next version of NDN will still produce the virus warning it won't take me too long anymore anyway :) Stefan / AH

hi dan!! hm, could this be a problem for us? :P as long as NDN is not called VIRUS officially i can relax :) will those guys care for this information? Stefan / AH

Hi everyone! i just want to let you know that i must delay the next release even more. i wanted to release it sooner but writing the online help is not very funny and consumes a lot of time. i hope i can finish it within the next 2 weeks, and don't expect too many bugfixes this time so long Stefan / AH

hi once more :) i assume you are using the LINUX or WINDOWS port (DPMI32 FTP is planned but not yet started...) there are 2 options in options.file manager.setup that you should take a look at: (in english, sorry) [ ] Show VFS on driveline [ ] ALT-F1/F2 Show VFS with these 2 options you should be able to access the ftp manager from the driveline and with ALT-F1/F2 the FTP drive char is "#" you can also use: "#:" this should bring you to the FTP directory btw, *: and ?: work too :) i hope you will be able to use it now Stefan / AH

hello again ok, here's a little request to you: go here http://dos32a.sourceforge.net/ and download dos32a-735-bin.zip, which is the DOS extender used in the D32 version of NDN. i want you to try around with all the options that you can change. you can configure the complete dos extender when it is installed in an executable. you need to start SS.EXE from the dos32 zip file with NDN.PRG from the NDN archive and then a screen should open where you can configure the dos extender NOTE: you need the uncompressed version of NDN.PRG, the last BETA version is not compressed for example i hope you know a bit about DPMI32. but most options are ON/OFF so it should be easy to try. i think you can solve the problem with changing the right options, and, if you can solve it please let us know so i can use the options on new versions of NDN. good luck Stefan / AH

hi again! don't you HAVE FTP already??? :P Stefan / AH
