Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: SS on May 26, 2003, 08:54:55 PM Okay, for those of you that don't know, Ri'than Lian is a specialised text editor. It's specialisation is IRC/RPG logs, in particular, searching and replacing within them, the intent being to transform into a nicely readable version.
I'm just letting people know that the text-editor side of things is done. Current features include: File: New/Open/Save/SaveAs Edit: Undo/Cut/Copy/Paste/Clear/SelectAll/SelectNone/SelectClear Format: Bold/Italic/Underline/Strikeout/Fonts/Sizes/Colours [Individual and Complete selection] And a few minor selections like asking you to save before opening a file, a lovely little About screen, proper Windows interface, including properly togglable, movable, resizable, dockable toolbars etc. (yay) Features yet to do include: Options [Edit default paths/settings/etc] Functions [The actual important search & replace bit of things] Help Topics [A simple context-sensitive help system] Once I have got at least the next two of these bits done, I will upload it and post the URL here, so y'all can tell me how wonderful it is. :D Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Rug on May 26, 2003, 09:15:31 PM Ugh, you used the word Lovely *hack, spit*

Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Filran on May 29, 2003, 04:20:03 PM Wheee. I need to fiddle around with it, because I can because I named it. :o
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: RipperRoo on May 29, 2003, 05:09:08 PM What does the name mean?
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: SS on May 29, 2003, 06:02:52 PM It doesn't mean anything.
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: mole on May 29, 2003, 06:11:37 PM some old tongue bable by the looks of it
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: RipperRoo on May 29, 2003, 08:42:01 PM Whats the point in having a lame name that doesnt mean anything?
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: mole on May 29, 2003, 08:43:55 PM so it confuses u?
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: SS on May 29, 2003, 09:02:16 PM It sounds cool.
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: RipperRoo on May 29, 2003, 10:37:56 PM It does? It just looks wierd to me.
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: mole on May 30, 2003, 12:42:00 AM looks very elvish or WoT
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: SS on May 30, 2003, 09:23:06 AM Well that aint a bad thing, seeing as without WoT it wouldn't be in existance. :P
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: mole on May 30, 2003, 11:35:52 AM ah rite
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Filran on May 30, 2003, 04:15:00 PM I make up words, and sometimes languages on a daily basis, so naming things like that is very helpful to me. I draw on things I know, subconsiously change them into something that is not used before, and spit it out for use. :P I've been making up mumbo-jumbo languages since I was about 7, and didn't read WoT and LoTR. :D
Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Shadow Hawk on June 16, 2003, 12:05:10 PM Hey SS...
wondering if you've updated Ri'than yet? and if so, could u please post the URL for me, cos i'd be interested in having it. cheers Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Guest:SS on June 16, 2003, 12:21:40 PM I'm sorry to say that the only progress I've made since that post is to create the menu for deciding how to search (case sensitive yes/no, find at start/end/anywhere in line, etc) nothing much else. :(
I have just marked on my calendar Wednesday evening for working on Ri'than Lian... assuming I do get to work on it then I should get something which is somewhere near usable. I doubt four hours is enough to finish it, though tis not impossible. :) Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: Rug on December 16, 2003, 09:00:20 PM *Puts his Necromancy boots on*
Can I get a finished version of Ri'than? Twould be useful for editing a few things... :). Title: Ri'than Lian Update Post by: SS on December 16, 2003, 09:09:09 PM Heh. I'd completely forgotten about this.
Um, I'll go have a look at how far I'd managed to get with it. edit: Hmmm, the previous post is relatively accurate - four to six hours of work and I can probably get something nice. After I've finished my pizza I can give it half an hours worth of work, and tomorrow morning I can add another couple of hours. A couple more in the evening and I'll see where I'm at, and probably upload whatever stage I've reached. |
