Ok, I've got a few things on my mind before I go to sleep tonite
(it's 1:19 am).
first of all.
I see in many places the
#if(n)def __SOMETHING_C__
and i also see
#if (!)defined(__SOMETHING_C__)
i was wondering if there is a real (codewise) difference or if the
only difference is that one is a GNU C extension and the other isn't.
b/c if this is true, i may as well keep it the way i've been doing it
(#ifdef)
another thing:
I've finally completed the basics of my Spell Checker code.
it requires Ispell and right now, i gotta get up early so i'm
not gonna post it tonite. It only has the options (when a word
not in the dictionary has been found)
Replace (A)ll, (I)gnore, or E(x)it Spell-Checker.
basically Ignore will continue, Exit will stop spell-checking no matter what.
and replace will bring up a prompt like so
Replace all 'to_replace' with what? _
and you enter something and it does a manual replace (which allows for 's
to be
replaced instead of using the replace function)
currently i can only get the Replace All working b/c I can't think
of a way to Replace JUST that word (considering you can spell-check only
certain lines using a word counter (to point to the to_replace word)
is kinda (IMO) out of the question). I could prolly hack something up
but i need some sleep right now :-P
umm. oh yeah. something else.
I hacked DG's Code to pull out the do_pose function (class-based social)
it's pretty interesting. I have 6 more class-based poses to add but
right now i use a modulus to keep it in range :-P
I've been planning to look through DG's code some more for some
more "ideas" to port to Circle (C) or to my (C/C++) mud.
anyway, i'm beginning to, or have been, babbling. So I'll leave you
all to your ideas. Post some. Lemme know if you'd like to use the
spell-checker.
I may (if i get the Replace Only working) add in a (number of times
spell-checker has been used) to see if it's really worth it.
I know for a fact on my mud that at least 20 outta the 200 or less beta
testers have used it. of course we only have like 30 come on often.
shrug.
