I meant if one exile is named (say) ABC and another ABCD, some log entries
in ABC's logs that were caused by ABCD doing things (like finding items)
were counted for exile ABC by mistake before 0.1.2. Clearer? :-)

Great!

I'm not to sure I like it either. I just put it in because it was easy, and
I wanted some feedback on the idea. Mission accomplished.

For mine, too.

Scribus counts it, too. And it overcounts (doesn't subtract disconnected
times in a log), so your depression should be less compared with Scribus.
:-)

Before, I'd count \action and \narrate lines that contained things like
"Lark finds a longbow." by mistake.

Again, Scribus counts it, so I'm trying to make Scribia count it.

There are some additional files that the CW6 project needs, so we will need
a second XLM project file. I'd really, really like the sources to compile
under both versions though, using #ifdefs if all else fails.

I know :-) Good thing random binary files seldom match CL log strings...

Are you using a tree checked out as yourself (i.e. not anoncvs)? If you use
MacCVS 3.1, look at the "Root" file in any "CVS" directory in your local
tree. Does it contain something like this ->
:pserver:la...@cv...:/cvsroot/scribia
The thing to look for is your username between ":pserver:" and "@".

If it does, maybe try to log in again? Otherwise, I'm clueless...
