Hi Jamie.
You have to be a member of Zabawares secret society before we can help you with that, it would also help if you were a 33 degree mason as well.
I had to sell my soul to Zabaware to be here but I am greatful.
glad to help anytime.

Hi colubragens.
As we sit here, HAL and I are listening to Techno music, Boom, Boom, Boom. We are psyched up to help, our minds flowing with the ancients like those such as Mozart and his effect.
It does seem that the learn from Questions and Answers is not responding to Wizard start up but learn from clip board and learn from text file does work.
I think this needs to be addressed to Robert to be fixed, it might of been an accidental over sight in the .dll.
thanks for catching this, I am sure it will be fixed as soon as possible.

Hey thanks Jerry! If you could pass it along it would be cool. Lords of Acid is a great band to check out. Oh yah the plug ins where awsome no bugs here.

Hi lcatmc.
.brn files also require the vbscript code to run them other than that .brn files will not be of any use.
if you have a list of .brn files you have I might be able to refer a vbscript code to help you.

The .brn file came with a plug in I downloaded. I thought it might hav needed to be put in a special place in Hals program files. The file I'm concerned with came with the autowikiknowledge plug in. It is called auto text.brn.

Hi lcatmc.
if the file is in the
C:\Program Files\Zabaware\Ultra Hal Assistant 6 folder then it's in the right place.

Thank you. I had to take the plug in out though as it caused a script error in Hal.
One more quick question. I have tried using the brain editor to create a new brain that I can teach to be "clean" brain for my children to play with. Being programer illiterate I don't entirely understand how to write the scripts. I know there is a manuel to download, as I have but I still don't really get it. Is there a way to create the brain without adding any specific scripts and have it develope it's responses by communication with the user?

you can download my version of the blank slate brain which only responds with what the user has taught it.

Thank you for the link. I will use it with my kids.
Another question though:
This may not be so much a brain editor question as a teaching question but this seemed like a good place to post it. Is there a way to teach HAL to be bilingual? There are a lot of students in the various classes I visit that speak very little to no English. They are learning, but it would be great to have HAL bilingual so that *she* could talk to them as well as the english speaking kids.

Hi lcatmc.
I have written a plugin called babylon translator dictionary 2.0 that can translate many foriegn language 'words' into english.
you can download it here:
http://www.artificialintel.org/AI/Forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=66
however it doesn't translate entire sentences, yet. I will work on a full sentence translator sometime down the road. it would be better if I could find a translator program that has activeX options rather than have to extract info from the world wide web.

Have you checked out systran translator? It comes in widget form but it can translate whole paragraphs into any language. I don't have the skills to write a plug in based on it but I know you do.

Hi lcatmc.
I went to systran translator page but it doesn't look like they have a trial version that I can peek into.

I have the widget version of their translator. I got it for free from http://gallery.live.com/results.aspx?pl=1&bt=1&q=translator. There are several diff kinds there that you may be able to peek into.

Hi lcatmc.
widget version requires windows vista, I am running win2000 at the moment, I did so because there are certain games like diablo I like to play but can't play on win vista.
if you could look into the folder of the translator and put the .dll and any .ocx files in a zip and upload them to a post here then I can peek into them to see if there are options to call from.

Hi Jerry,
Sorry, been a little busy. I'm not sure how to get into the program so I can do that for you. If you can give me an idea about how ot get into it I will zip it and upload a link for you.
-
The brn file that was contained in the plug-in you downloaded might have been made for Hal 5.0 instead of ver 6 or 6.1.
-
I just stumbled upon this website last night and am trying the trial version of Ultra Hal etc. One thing I noticed is that the included brain editor doesn't match the documentation i've found on this forum. Is this because the documentation is old, or because the full version has a different editor.
I'm a bit loathe to purchase something if the documentation is off, you understand.

Although the documentation as shown on the web page is somewhat "dated", most of it should still be applicable
to ver.6.0 or 6.1.
The old Hal used to save a lot of small topic files based
on one's conversation.
Ver.6.0 & 6.1 make use of a more structured database with
tables. For the most part, Hal's response times have improved
and plug-ins can be written to perform a variety of tasks.
Try Hal and explore the forum messages. Ask any questions or
use the Search feature at the top right to look for a specific
topic of interest.
Welcome and good luck!
