1. Create a file called "a b.txt" 2. Alt+F7, a b.txt , or Alt+F7 "a b.txt" NDN won't find the file in either case. (Kudoz to my colleague Rieko for finding this bug :)

I pressed Shift+Tab in Calculator (Ctrl+F6) (which isn't exactly a dialog) and in "System Setup". None disappeared. NDN 2.15.5814. Confirmed!

1. Copy a file to an FTP site 2. Copy the file again, in the same location. NDN won't ask if you want to overwrite/resume. I used passive mode, not sure if this happens in active mode as well.

Basil OS/2, I have already reported this bug some time ago at http://forums.muxe.com/index.php?showtopic=520

1. Have a user menu (NDN.MNU) that contains: >1 Bug echo %1 type %1 2. Select some files, press F2 and launch the "Bug" entry. %1 will be a file named 'd' in NDN's home directory, and the contents of this file is not the list of selected files in the active panel, but the selected file in the passive panel. Since in my usage I rely heavily on NDN's list feature, I am forced to revert to beta 4950 until this issue is fixed. Hope this helps, Dan

NDN can't enter an archive inside another archive if Configuration -> System Setup -> Internal Viewer is UNchecked, regardless of the setting of "[ENTER] execs in VFS/archives". The reason I have "Internal viewer" unchecked is because I like to launch a graphic viewer for JPG, PNG etc. by just pressing F3 instead of Alt+F3. Hope that helps, Dan

1. Ctrl-Del some files from a panel (Drive, Find, Temp etc.). 2. Notice they disappear from the panel. 3. View one of the remaining files, exit the viewer. 4. Notice the Ctrl-Deleted files reappeared. DNOSP 1.51.10b15 keeps hiding the files after you view one. Hope this helps, Dan

The files also reappear if you delete another file.

1. Copy NDN's ENGLISH.LNG to NDN.BUG 2. View NDN.BUG in a 78x20 window. 3. Cycle to Dump mode (F4). 4. Press Ctrl+PageDown. You'll see "Screen Saver Setu" (BTW: typo?) 5. Place the cursor under 'v' and press Delete. Instead of deleting in the normal way (shifting the text following the cursor one position to the left), NDN deletes backwards.

1. Get a file longer than NDN's internal buffer. ENGLISH.LNG is a good example. Copy it as NDN.BUG 2. View NDN.BUG in Dump mode, in a 78x20 viewer windo (e.g. with NDN set to 80x25, viewer maximized) 3. Press Ctrl+PageDown. 4. One line above the cursor, you will see "Screen Save Setu" (BTW, typo?) 5. Put the cursor under 'c' and start pressing Insert. 6. Apparently random green block will appear at the end of the file. By the time you pressed Insert the 9th time, you will see the garbage character ($E0, α)

1. Create a file with the following contents: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 2. View the file in dump mode. 3. Place the cursor under 'o', then Shift+LeftArrow until 'k' is selected. 4. Press Del. NDN deletes correctly 'klmn' and the cursor is under 'o'. 5. Now press Shift+RightArrow until the cursor is under 't'. Press Del. NDN deletes correctly, but the cursor is under 'y'.

1. Go to an FTP site, in a folder with many files, and place the curson on a file 2. Very, very quickly press F5, Enter, Enter. This will stop the transfer and apparently also the retrieval of the directory listing so you'll end up with a blank FTP panel. Ctrl+R to refresh doesn't work. AH, basides fixing this issue, can you please implement Ctrl+R for FTP? Just in case the transfer somehow goes wrong or the contents of the FTP folder is updated externally. Thanks, Dan

1. In one panel, go to C:\ 2. In the other panel, go to an FTP site, place the cursor on a file 3. Press F5 to copy. Notice that NDN starts copying immediately. This is bad because: a) you don't get a chance to change the destination B) if by habit you press F5, Enter, you will have stopped the transfer

1. Go to a folder with some files. 2. Select all files. 3. Place the cursor on the '..' entry. 4. Press Ctrl+Insert. 5. Paste the clipboard contents somewhere. Notice you have as many paths to '..' as selected files.

I tried to set an alarm for January 1st 2006 and noticed that the alarm was set in the list for 16.01.2005. I'm trying to replace Outlook as a PIM and use NDN instead, so the calendar feature becomes quite important. Nice features to have: + snooze/postpone button (by given number of days, hours, minutes) + large text field for notes (useful to enter URLs, confirmation numbers, addresses and well, just notes) + some indication as to whether a certain alarm has already occured or not (e.g. a divider between alarms that have already occured, i.e. completed tasks, and the ones that will occur; or a checkmark to the left of each alarm, indicating its state) + generally, mimicking Outlook would be a good idea + option to disable sound. In that case, however, NDN needs to pause somehow before displaying the alarm window (the current sound does that very well) because if the user was typing and the alarm pops up, the characters will end up being received by the alarm window (particularly the space key, activating the OK button) Hope that helps, Dan

1. Download the free HDTune disk benchmark utility 2. Place its window over the NDN window. 3. Alt+Tab between NDN and HDTune. The display is OK. 4. Alt+Tab to HDTune, then click in the NDN window. NDN does not refresh its window contents.

1. Create a directory on a network path, such as \192.168.0.3\Users\Dan 2. Delete that directory (F8) 3. NDN crashes with the following NDN.ERR: http://home.arcor.de/dandv/bugs/ndn/del_di...m_net_drive.err

1. Probably any NDN.HGL will do, but just to make sure, start with the NDN 2.15.4950 beta published on ndn.muxe.com 2. Download this HTM file: http://home.arcor.de/dandv/bugs/ndn/wrong_..._before_EOF.htm 3. View the file and press F2 to enable wrapping. Notice how lines that wrap are incorrectly highlighted in the 'comment' color up until the last column of the last comment. 4. If you add an EOL before the EOF in the file, the bug won't be reproduced.

1. Uncheck Options -> Editor -> Found block = str 2. Edit a file, F7 for something that will be found. Notice that the first occurence is not highlighted as a block, but subsequent occurences (Ctrl+L) are.

Suppose you have C:\NDN and you go to C:\ and press Sfit+F1 on NDN. NDN will generate $$NDN$$.LST in C:\NDN, so that file itself will get included in the archive! (it's listed as the last item of $$NDN$$.LST) Hope that helps, Dan

1. When you create a subdirectory in an FTP directory, you are not asked for confirmation as when you are when creating a dir on a local drive (with NDN 2.15.4564, this 'bug' is a feature actually, because NDN requests directory confirmation even when you expressly press F7 :-) 2. After creating the director, NDN does not put the file cursor over it. Dan

The NOD32 antivirus http://www.eset.com detects NDN as being a potential NewPE virus (heuristic). You can test by downloading a trial version from http://www.eset.com/download/trial.htm Maybe AH could talk to these guys and convince them NDN isn't a virus :-) Dan

No matter what setting in Configuration -> Viewer for "Tab replace", and no matter what wrapping (F2) style in the Viewer, if you view the txt file from http://home.arcor.de/stasis/tabs_wrap_line.zip in NDN Version v2.15.4360/ENG, NDN will wrap the numbers to the following line. Compare with editing the file, which shows up correctly.

1. On Windows 2000 Professional US English, Service Pack 4, go to Control Panel -> Regional Options and pick Japanese in both the "Your locale" drop-down list and the one which appears if you click the "Set default" button. Reboot 2. After rebooting, launch a cmd.exe window and from its system menu (Alt+Space), choose Defaults. In the Default code page drop-down, select the 437 - US code page. 3. Launch NDN.EXE *without any shortcut (.pif file)*. Just type the path to NDN.EXE in Start -> Run. To check you launched it this way, from the Alt+Space menu of the NDN window, go to Properties and make sure you have the 437 code page in the "Current code page" box Those steps are important. On the US English locale I could not reproduce the bug. OK, now to the bug itself: 1. Create a 2-byte file containing two $9A bytes. 2. Edit the file and copy the entire text (I did F4, Home, Shift+End, Ctrl+Insert) 3. Paste the clipboard somewhere, such as in the SmartPad (Alt+Q, Shift+Insert) 4. Notice the extra $13 character that you get. 5. Try to copy to the clipboard just one of the $9A characters. Notice that when you paste, nothing happens. Can anyone reproduce? Haman? :-)
