Hello All. Stefan, would it be possible to add one more option to the Suppress Default flag? I'd appreciate a setting that would suppress emails being sent and remove the option from the page. Or, has this been accomplished? And, if so, what is that setting. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great work.


I added
Suppress default = 3

which always suppresses email notifications. The addition is under CVS and will be included in the next release.

Thanks Stefan.

How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect.


You need the current CVS version which has this implemented, or you wait for the next official release.

The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used).


MS Exchange Server has and SMTP server inside, I use this all the time.

Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box?


By clicking on the smiley on the top row next to "FONT".

And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails?


You can put a
Suppress email to users = 1
into the config file, but the checkbox will still be there, but non-functional. Maybe I should remove it in that case...

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.


You are not supposed to <b>rework</b> the source code, but if you want the cutting edge features, you need to recompile from CVS or wait for official releases.


I apologize for my using the incorrect language. I did not mean I would be rewriting your code, merely compiling, linking, and running the new version. The computer elog is loaded one is not one I have access to a compiler on. Sorry if I misspoke!

Hello Stefan. I used this setting with the beta2 version and it works great. THANX!!! Many kudos to you for an elegant solution to the logging 'problem'.

Hi,

long lines in an entry are not printed correctly (the lines are cut off), if the text is encoded as plain text. This works correctly, if the text is encoded as ELCode. I tried this with Firefox and Internet Explorer. Does anybody know a solution for this?

Thanks,
Bertram

Can you post an example here? If I try a
veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery
 long line, it's shown correctly. You just have to scroll right in your browser.

the lines are displayed as expected on the screen, but they are cut off when the browser window is printed via
the browsers print function.
This did not occur in a previous version (V2.5.6).

Your problem is related with the fact that I changed the formatting from fixed font to proportional font ("ELCode"). This gives you three options:

  • Enter your elog entries in "plain" text, which brings you back to the old mode
  • Change the page setup of your browser. Mozilla Firefox has File/Page Setup/Shrink to fit page and left and right margin
  • Reduce the entry window via the config setting "Message width"

Executing "make" on MacOS X is OK, but "make install" failed due to the following error:
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -d /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/man/man1/ /usr/local/man/man8/
/usr/bin/install -m 0755 -o bin -g bin elog elconv /usr/local/bin
install: bin: Invalid argument
make: *** [install] Error 67

The reason is that the account "bin" and group "bin" are missing on MacOS X. I also found that the following lines in "Makefile" doesn't work:
ifeq ($(OSTYPE),darwin)
CC = cc
endif

I have fixed this problem. The diff of Makefile as following:
diff Makefile.darwin Makefile.origin
