[Verse-misc] Verse server/wishlist

[Henk P. <hp...@dd...>]

Another thing for my wishlist, a --silent option for the Verse server, so
you can pipe the output into a textfile (for watching the errors) without
having all these:

161635 (0) [0 0] \
162704 (0) [0 0] |
163774 (0) [0 0] /
164915 (0) [0 0] -

I've collected almost everything on internet related to Verse and I'm now
bundeling it together. Hope to be able compress it enough to upload it via
my slow connection.

btw, just had a server crash 'experience'. It's kinda wierd since I didn't
do anything special with it. So I just tried to see if everything works. It
could be that it crashed because the 'pipe was full'. DOS has some kind of
64k file limit, and the output-piped file seems to have flushed and started
over before the server stopped responding.

I have connected to it with a couple utils (render, adamant, editor) and
Quel Solaar, which didn't gave anything like an error. I couldn't find the
exit widget, used the QS 'escape-button' F12. Could be that. There was
nothing loaded via loader, I did only create some nodes via the utils.

Anyways, it seemed to be crashed when I came back after half an hour. The
stdout-pipe didn't update anymore (didn't pipe stderr...), and trying to
connect to it with any of the programs gave back an error from that
program. After three attempts the server-proces itself crashed (windows
error popup).

And a question, why does the server use 4% of CPU on my P100 while idle
(fresh start)?

PS: The version of Enough I downloaded (some time ago) can't connect to the
server. It apperently uses an older VLL...
