Sporadic notes about working with radio No Simpler than this Radio: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 <#>> 22:51  Radio  almost threading    Asc Mo ok! i got the missing ui tweaks in and worked out the how to maintain links between posts really simply. too bad i have a bug in the basic renumbering routine. # 18:38  Radio  quicker? symetrical assertion    Asc Mo this was so pretty that i'm not sure that there is not a built-in to handle it. didn't see one in many examples... anyway, here's the "pretty piece of code of the week" :) bundle { //assert path to day  if !defined(adrblog^.dates.[year].[month].[day]) {   if !defined(adrblog^.dates.[year].[month]) {    if !defined(adrblog^.dates.[year]) {     new (tabletype, @adrblog^.dates.[year])};    new (tabletype, @adrblog^.dates.[year].[month])};   new (tabletype, @adrblog^.dates.[year].[month].[day])}} is there a better way? <#> 18:34  Radio  datestamped permalinks    Asc Mo distracted myself into smartening up the perma-links. i wanted the link-title to tell you what i know about the post. i think its important for one to be real about whats being published. for example i know that there are a few posts that i want to 'tone-down'. i have my max.link.note.(*) and will probably use that. i want the weblog to reflect when i made the edits. i think thats just fair.. especially since i have the ability to insertpostsintothepast now. in the process i learned that the abs() of a delta date is still a date. idiosyncratic but coercable: local {tc=timeCreated(@adrpost^.text); tm=timeModified(@adrpost^.text);}; if number(abs(tw-tc))>(60*20) {s=s+" created "+max.dates.dtRelative(tw,tc)+"."} <#> 13:16  Radio  integrated pop-out edit windows into the site    Asc Mo <div class=small><a title="Edit a new post in a pop-out window." href="radio://# New Post" onclick="window.open('http://127.0.0.1:5335/?e=&popout','','width=590,height=540,resizable=yes'); return false;">New Post</a></div> YES! <#> 11:23  Radio  hyperlinking posts - optimistic first    Asc Mo a new 'design-time' icons for each post. click to open a 'receiver' window. navigate to another post, click the icon there.. you have connected the two posts and will get hyperlinks between them next time you render. i think i should write that tomorrow. <#> 02:10  Radio  hoping to 'be done' soon    Asc Mo i'm 90% ready to think of the chart and symbol processing as automated. i want to anyway.. and get back to me. * need to track new for posts and touch iblog.html whenever index.txt files get upstreamed. that should keep it in sync. * sort feeds on homepage, rewrite and add descriptions to db * how to generated the xml feed for dailySymbols from its data rather than its text? #> 02:03  Radio  enhancing pop-out integrations    Asc Mo tweaked my navbar-opt-out concept to leave just the bar in place while viewing recent posts. worked over archivelinks and added a local-only link to editing recents from each day-header. this makes potentially editing my contents seem a lot easier. archivelinks now truly integrate daily symbols and give me a place to track some 'net-history' and see my weblog in a symbolical context too.
