I am trying to port the ViewT(ooltypes)
??? I'd think it would be easier to do it in Python. Read/write a icon ".info " file with new tooltypes, yes? Or, is there something else? Why say it 'C'; it's a maintenance thing.

Thanks to those for fixing the glich! That's worth a donation from a favorite PAL...

re-installed quake II
Have no idea what you actually done, but the program exec needs a link to QuakeII. Is it in the Appdir ?

>JosDuchit #1
fileStats = os.stat ( 'Arch.gc' ) # a file in the current directory
The argument is wrong. It's 'os.stat(path)'. Try this at home:

#Amiga Python 53.29
import os
st = os.stat( "Ram:")
print st
>>>>
(16832, 0, 1822471436, 2, 0, 0, 0L, 1308634305, 1308634305, 1308634305, 1308634305, 1308634305, 1308634305, 512, 0L, 0)

The "STAT" module says -- 'All the variables below are simply symbolic indexes into the 10-tuple returned by os.stat(), os.fstat() or os.lstat().'

Well, it's a 16 tuple isn't it? I looked at help(os.stat_results) and the 'stavfs' module and can't determine what the tuple is saying.

I would be tempted to say RTFM but that would be rude of me ...
It sure would considering the depth of 2.5s Docs list. I read all the time, and it just too deep for one person to know all of it!

The todo list ...
Filer is great file manager tool...nice work!
I looked for reference to python...n0ne. If I click on a python script with 'Filer' it defaults to Python interactive mode; that's not what I want; execute the script is what I want. I tried creating a 'user button' with 'python {f}' and 'python {o}' and it defaults to interactive. Is there a way to set this up, or is this a 'todo' do?!

>JosDuchIt

Anyone interested in giving feedback?
GUI? I need an IDE like Python 'IDLE'. I recentlly finished my first Pygame and biggest headache was keeping the indentions in conformity. IDLE has nice edit/formatting routines.

What in the heck does --"wtf"--mean, or wtf does wtf mean?!

@JosDuchIt

With the following python script ospath.py i reproduced error messages that trace backt to the amigapath.py module....

Did you start off with ...

Python-Docs-2.5/lib/module-stat.html
11.3 stat -- Interpreting stat() results

"The stat module defines constants and functions for interpreting the results of os.stat(), os.fstat() and os.lstat() (if they exist). For complete details about the stat(), fstat() and lstat() calls, consult the documentation for your system. ..."

There's a sample script for 'walking a dir tree', but it's too technical for me. I don't know if even the file Stat'mode' is supported. I suspect it doesn't exist. Does it?

Incripted directory works. ISTR, that Lock() refers to IO and not security. Some file operations need to be locked to prevent interrupted operations.

Also need some help with Python, having a problem with Unescaping single quotes...

It's not about 'unescaping quotes', it;s about Python Dos ways and formatted List files.
You need to read Chapter 3.14:Lists and Chapter 5:Data Structures, in Python - Docs 2.5/tut/tut.html

Actually - just worked it out - its not the Python script after all - its fine!
I haven't figured what your script is doing. I don't see any definitions...

There is a Python module to decipher itc files, but first I need to decipher the folder structure.
<key>Library Persistent ID</key><string>76710B0D0E49CFBE</string>
That's a typical Python 'Dictionary' format.

Hi freddix,
If you have any idea, though, feel free to post them here :)
I don't; mostly too technical. Sometimes I'm lost about new stuff.
<Snuffy hugs freddix for all his great works!>
BTW, is AmiDark Basic available for OS4, or WIP?

Hi AmigaKit,
We do not charge Paypal fees on top.
I've noticed that..Love it!

Here's the think, I can't decide about the SAM. My A1-XE turned eight years old this month. I think a new machine would be nice, but I'm sceptical about the new stuff. I'm not hearing enough about the SAM 460. My "Customer Confidence" is a bit low. Sorry about that...

Hi @ Frédéric Aka AmiDARK

Thanks for update. I registered today. Where do I go to start writing my first program, or is that all in all in the SDK?

Nice!

LOL! That's a nice upgrade!

Did you try that poker game?

Ahh, the sweet sound of poker chips. I began my SDLBasic 'Poker Entertainer' program in 2009. I used EA's "Poker for Dummies" as my main model.

Isn't there a shell under AmiCygnix ?
ABCshell. A special 'Xlaunch' uses it I think to tap the X-Server.
Can u run Python under AmiCygnix ?
No, no interface to the X-server.

Now i'm running my sam460ex. And it's working...
Glad to hear you ironed out the problems. Quite a few people recently got Sam460s: Noel Fuller, Joe Howard, Bart Mathias, Ikir, and you! I guess some peer pressure is building-up for me to upgrade! Umm, all the Amiga players are not in the poker game yet. I would like to hear more about the X1000 before I decide about 'calling' or 'folding'!

@RNS-AMiGA-Club
The screenshot is taken from new version of my Icon Editor...
Your looking great!

Hi all to who run this joint, nice job! It's great to be back 'home sweet home"!

Hi @nubechecorre

...it seems that Clickboom pak files are not fully compatible.. try the pc's PAK files..
My Quake version uses Clickboom. Always worked perfect with the Hyperion Quake executive on A1-XE/G4. I don't know anything about SAMs.
