Logged In: YES user_id=202636 Gonna close this now. patthoyts added on 2003-03-29 09:20:04: Logged In: YES user_id=202636 We have applied another patch for a find function that uses /?regex typed into the entry widget. However, we might want to add a Find menu item like this too. lukekalemyers added on 2003-01-01 11:33:18: File Added - 38579: patch.diff Logged In: YES user_id=241231 Yet another revision. This patch includes support for navigating between results in the chat window and obsoletes all previous patches. lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-22 05:59:41: Logged In: YES user_id=241231 Hmm, it says: File Delete: ArtifactFile: Permission Denied well, that's okay since they are identical AFAIK lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-22 05:58:06: Logged In: YES user_id=241231 Looks like there were two identical .tar.gz archives added. I will try to delete one duplicate... lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-20 11:02:27: File Added - 37998: final-patches.tar.gz lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-20 11:02:26: Logged In: YES user_id=241231 EE, Thanks for all your help as I tried to get up to speed on these development tools. -- Luke Myers lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-20 10:59:08: File Added - 37997: final-patches.tar.gz lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-19 23:24:01: File Added - 37972: tkchat.patch Logged In: YES user_id=241231 Updated comment for the second patch This code provides to highlight interesting text in the tkchat message window. The user interface can be invoked in two ways: 1.) Through the Find entry on the FIle menu. 2.) By entering /find in the message post window. (command line) The /find command may have an optional argument, which will then be used as the search string. To highlight an exact string or regexp pattern, enter it in "Find text" field. All matches in the chat window will be highlighted. Should the search be a time consuming one, it will pause when the Find dialog is closed and resume when it is re-opened. To remove all highlighting, clear the "Find text" field in the Find dialog. Known caveats: Sub-strings are not highlighted separately from the rest of the matching text when using regexp sub-matching. The whole match will be highlighted the same. This is a limitation of of the [text] -search command. lukekalemyers added on 2002-12-17 10:22:27: File Added - 37763: patch.txt | |||
