Hi. I need a font with the phonetic symbols compatible with OS X. Do you know a place where I can find one free ? thank you, Pierre

I think so. I don't agree with you. HyperTalk is famous. Maybe not "HyperTalk" itself, but at least "HyperCard" (people who knows HC don't necessarly know that the language is told HT). But it is known. It has been an example, a model for a lot of programmers and other languages (Lingo...

heuu ... I just remembered that some functions allowing that already exist in the NSString class : [myString substringFromIndex:anInteger]; [myString substringToIndex:anInteger]; ... ooops! :p ... I'm really absent-minded :D have fun! Pierre

yes ;) It should be something like this : - (NSString *) left: (int) a { return [self substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0,a)]; } - (NSString *) right: (int) a { return [self substringWithRange:NSMakeRange([self length]-a,a)]; } ... the harder is to understand what NSRange...

maybe ugly but worky. :) I'm making a little runtime interpreter. So I create a plist file with the description of each command and converting this file to a NSDictionnary I can do exactly what I want with some "special" commands then scripted case by case, the others, scripted in default...

Do you really use a LC 475 ? (it's my favorite Macintosh ;) )

it works, but it isn't as neat as switch ... you're obliged to repeat the [reference isEqualTo:***] :( ... That's what I would like to avoid and that's the purpose of switch/case. The best solution, from my point of view, is to use a NSDictionary : - (void) myFunction: (NSString *)...

Hi. You probably know the "swtitch"/"case" C control structure. It works with the basics data types : int, char, ... but not with NSString objects nor any non basic type. Do you know a way to make it to work ? (without converting the NSString to a char*) thank you, that's not...

I got it! :D The NSRange is not a Obj-C class but a simple C struc like this : typedef struct _NSRange { unsigned int location; unsigned int length; } NSRange; That's why there's no class definition ... since there's no class. :) sorry for all those messages. :) ...

NS : this page about Range is from the Java API and not the Obj-C one. Does somebody understand why ? ... that's so strange ...

about NSRange ... I found it!! :D It is not listed in the Foundation classes nor into the classes index of a project, but you can find it into the Apple Cocoa Documentation : /Cocoa Developper Documentation/Data Management/Geometry and Range utilities/NSRange ;) But I'm still...

I'm trying to deal with strings ... the problem is that I don't understand what NSRange is ... there is no documentation to describe the NSRange class in Obj-C. :( I'm really interested by your category. If you could post it there or send it by email (maccatalan@mac.com) ... thank you, Pierre

some mad guys did something like this with iMac rev A & B. They made a new computer changing the box (the new one was a CD-Video driver for TV ... something very smart) and some components. I saw (on a magazine) also an iBook put into a king of case. If I find the article I will post some...

iMacs are wonderful and powerful computers but they can't really be upgrated (memory and airport can be). That's their main problem and the price for a such design. :( good luck and don't regret your purchase ;) Pierre

thank you

Does anyone know what does the "Optimizing System Performance" process after an install on OS X ? Because it can be long, very long .. longuer than the install itself. thank you, Pierre

I didn't know if W2K is closer from WNT or W98 so I didn't put it ... Windows is a strange thing ... a lot of flavours but nothing coherent ... ;)

at your office, work, what kind of computer operating system do you use ?

Hey, be simple. Just look at the beginning : "MS". Isn't it enough to explain it crashes ? why it is bugged ? or anything bad else ? never forget that : when your PC crashes, just look at the bottom left corner of your screen. What do you see ? the reason, the why, of the crash : Windows.

thank you but I didn't have speakers before this week (I found my old AppleDesign Powered Speakers this last week-end. You know, the very old ones ... I used to plug them on my LC 475 ... so imagine how old they are. :) they work so well) -> I will call Apple, just to hear what they say. ;)...
