The status of the next update and 2.0

Excellent! I’m glad we’ve cleared that up.

The standard programatic negation is one of two options: ! or -.

So I would suggest the following for negating DDAA-- !DDAA or -DDAA

But then what do i know?

Mr Jaysen, may I suggest a quiet room, and a cold compress to the fevered brow (if you can remember wher you`ve left it).
Do take care

I was wondering which of the scrivenistos/scrivenistas from Stockport would pick up on the Great Shane’s moniker, though “sh …”

William: "if DDAA means “doesn’t deserve an answer” what is an appropriate abbreviation for “does deserve an answer?”

If a post deserves an answer, the appropriate thing to do is to answer it, obviating the need for an abbreviation.

… or not, depending upon the vigor, accuracy, beauty, style, tone, clarity, and overall goodness of that answer.

I suppose.

Dear Fluff,

I would love to watch it, but I’m afraid that the internet people here in the land of silk think it would be morally damaging for me to do anything of the sort … so I’m afraid I have to take it on trust.

Consider the source of the recommendation to view the video. I think the “internet people” there are probably correct.

To rename a project in 1.5.x Use the backup feature (alternative to Save As).

But in all reality with all the changes we have gleaned from comments made by Keith & Co about 2.0 it just makes sense to upgrade as many things have been changed or improved (Keith mentions many changes under the hood which that alone makes sense to upgrade). So since about everyone is going to pay to upgrade to 2.0 the “Save As” feature is just a small bonus compared to all of the other improvements made not only to the interface (like that screen shot keith) but as well as all of the coding changed under the hood so the discussion about “Save As” is moot in my opinion. You are going to upgrade anyway.

I would assume the reason why not much information has been released about 2.0 is the simple fact it is still in Beta. Keith would not want to mention a feature this early on and then if that feature was not working as intended and he had to take it out before release then some person would probably come on the forums and complain about the mentioned feature “missing”.

Patience is best. Let us wait until Beta is over and Keith is assured everything is working as he intends then I am sure he will start to release information and screen shots of 2.0 and all of its new nifty features.

PS: I am really amazed at how far Keith has taken SCR since SCR Gold. I am sure 2.0 will be well worth the wait!

Sheesh. Just let me pay already. I want Scriv 2. Bad. I can’t handle the truth! I mean, the WAIT. I can’t handle the [EDITED] wait! And ain’t Jack [EDITED] cool. Okay, I think I’m finally [EDITED!] losing it. Somebody shoot me. Hey I mean the [EDITED!!! By George, woman, what were you thinking?] tranq gun, not the one chock full of buckshot!

Cadence,
The only way you`re gonna get through the next few weeks, it to start snorting, ‘offtopickings’, like the rest of the crew.

Mr Mark,
By way of consolation prize, here are the lyrics to Dirty Old Town, penned by Ewan MacColl, plus a piccy of its most famous performer: Shane MacGowan

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I Kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring’s a girl from the streets at night
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
I Heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I Smelled the spring on the smoky wind
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I’m gonna make me a big sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I’ll chop you down like an old dead tree
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Amazing and magical!

Bad Ass does not nearly describe it.

(Although I did suffer a tad from sad panda when I found out there would be no Commodore 64 version. :slight_smile:

Awesome Work!

Yes, a pity. Keith has obviously NO IDEA where the mass market is headed. He’ll probably go bankrupt if he doesn’t make a version for C64. I mean, it’s Basic V2, what’s the holdup?!

Wha… Ho… I uh… Evil. Plain old evil.

Not really, but that makes my soul ache.

GeoScriv

And I am not sure what bothers me more, that you have a c64, that I can think of 3 ways to make this look real but still be fake, that even if it is fake I am envious of your c64, or, as i suspect, you not only have a WORKING c64, but that you still have the ability to poke the image into the proper registers to display.

Evil.
