  • Comment: par2cmdline (0.4) dies when passed a directory as a 'file'

    Logged In: YES user_id=329158 I realized when I woke up this morning that Win32 would probably not compile with the patch, so here's this version that will probably work. Untested.

  • par2cmdline (0.4) dies when passed a directory as a 'file'

    Previously closed threads don't fix "The source file does not exist:" errors. The problem is that when the shell expands the wildcards for you, it doesn't filter for files, but par2cmdline doesn't filter for files for anything it's given as an argument. (Except for a Literal */?, which I couldn't figure out how to escape through an argument to a shellscript... in such a way that...

  • orientation error for some imported pa

    I'm trying to draw something in in the silkscreen with a negative area in the solder-mask to expose an area under it as part of a logo for my project board. While doing that I came across an odd and very annoying error. This is a library part I started working on. Element(0x00000000 "insane design" "" "" 0 0 3 100 0x00000000) ( Mark(0 0) Pad( 0 -140 140 0 10 "1" 0x00000100)

  • Auto-Log Rotation?

    Is there some way to have a new logfile per connect? Ideally I'd be able to construct a custom format using some kind of combination of strftime symbols and an extension. Probably a pre-replacement of 'connection number' with %n. It would be ideal if printf style notation could be used to determine field width, fill character, and fill-position. So a network would then contain a few extra...

  • Comment: auto scan for extra files

    Logged In: YES user_id=329158 Actually the origional .par specification made a small checksum hash at the beginning of each file. It is a shame that .par2 doesn't keep such a sum, it would be VERY useful as usenet attachments can often be mis-named. It would also help on CDs with limited filename lengths. Actually, it would be useful if such a hash could be produced every % of a...

  • Set redundency by Space and/or Time constraints.

    Currently the only controls are redundency % and block count/size. It would be much nicer to set redundency by how much space the pars should take up (so that you can easily fit something on a CD) and to see how much time is left, if not guestimate redundency by how much time is allowed. (EX, I have this thing I NEED to get done ASAP to mail to someone. I've got 5 min left before I...

  • QuickPar for win32 seems to run MUCH faster... Improve Speed

    It seems to take a Lot longer to do anything on my linux system then on the Win32 system. True, the systems don't have the same CPU, however one's an athlon tbird 1ghz, and the other is an Athlon XP 2.2 (1800 clock) so the speed isn't THAT much different for what seems like a major difference in speed. Maybe it's the memory, Maybe it's the 2x speed increase in the CPU, however it...

  • I have no local news server. How do I start?

    What I want to do is just download all of the articles in a few groups to my hard disk. Then I'll use something else to go through and decode the attachments and stuff that I want. That's all I want to do. When it starts up, it tries to connect to a news server on localhost, which of course, I don't have. I just want the articles from another news server, and the files are specified on...

  • Overflow in unknown area...

    The program apears to be running fine... Then my memory graph makes it look like giFT-Zombie is attempting to much more and more memory (only my cdrecord process does that when I set a buffer size of 256 megs so I can abuse my disk and not worry about under-running.) and then my system would normally crash. I ended up running the giFT server at nice 18 and running giFT-Zombie at nice 19.

  • Followup: RE: Succesfully compiled on IRIX 6.2

    Hum, that would partially explain why I started getting HUGE memory grabs (I normally don't see this but I ran the clint just after startup. X and related apps take up a footprint of about 5-700 megs and quite suddenly the memory graph applet showed another 700 or so being eaten (until I ran out of ram...) over a period of about 10 seconds before my system would either lock or the app would...
