OS X will definatley have a probelm with SCSI CDR. Try replacing with the old one - probably gonig to need it for X anyway. Had major problems installing X on a beige. Finally w…

I couldn't install 10.0 on my Beige G3/300 until I returned it to its original condition (down to the master/slave IDE config). Once I installed, though, I re-customized the config…

Schwa, you had better luck than I did. The only way I can get 10 or 10.1 loaded onto my G3/266 is to pull the HD and put it in a G4. If I try to boot from the OS 10.1 CD on the …

hello, in some respects i have just started out in programming. while im good at art and writing storyboards i have my goals set on these two apps. Of course as a cruel twist of i…

First, calling someone a "bastard" isn't the best way to introduce yourself and ask for help. That rude comment aside, what's so bland about the information on the Internet? P…

Poor english and/or typos aside, I don't think Train of Death was calling anyone a bastard. Nice list of online resources!

I have a string that contains encoded URL data, it's not actually a real URL (in the form http://www.host.com/path/path), it's just a string encoded in the url format (with escap…

I'm using Cocoa and Objective-C, I can create an NSURL with the string, but there seem only to be methods that can extract host etc., not decode the whole string... I would write i…

There are some CGI libraries in C that have to do this sort of parsing. Try looking at cgi-lib or cgic. I was working on an Objective-C CGI library at some point, but haven't had…

Well I've decided to write my own, replacing the '+' characters with spaces is obviously simple, but I need to convert occurrences of %XX (where XX is the ASCII value, in hex) to t…

CFURL.h (in CoreFoundation) has some functions for encoding and decoding URL text. Others can be found in the open-source Omni frameworks: the stuff you'll find useful is split bet…

I tried using CFURL and CFString to decode the URL data, but I'm having a problem.. <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face="Geneva, Verdana, Arial">code:</font><HR>…

Oh, obviously I need to pass the allocator(?) in the CFURLCreateWithString.. but I haven't a clue what that is.

Well, I actually got the time to sit down and sift through the CF docs a little, and the solution was quite clear and simple. Here it is... <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1"face=…

When Jobs (or pirates, my memory's fuzzy like that) announced that X.1 would support Apple Events over IP, my first response was simply "Oh." I recently installed XFree86, and one …

AppleEvents aren't really anything related to remote control/display of programs... You'd be better off using something like OSXvnc, if I understand what you're trying to do.

I will throw in my 2 cents here but I haven't actually tried doing this yet (I only have one OS X machine). If you wrote a "client" program and set it up to communicate all the ac…

X11 does a similar thing to VNC and Timbuktu but it only exports window graphics, not whole desktops. It is how most Unix networks run and it is VERY cost-effective. Essentially,…

Hi everyone, I've been trying to compile some X11 apps to use on MacOS X with the new beta of XTools, but I'm having some troubles. I found the GNU Darwin site and the sources or …

Thanks, I had a look at the FAQ, and also at Fink. It mentions this: "If you get errors related to macros, use the -traditional-cpp option." Where would I add that option? I did…
