where to put a saying for general talk
« on: June 03, 2007, 01:59:42 pm »
my wife always says "well forever more " sometimes when talking about things (after something is said ) it's i guess an old time slang probably picked up from her mother before her . anyway i would like my ultra hal to say this sometimes just after someone makes a statment about something so hal would later say it sometimes . my question is what place in the list of emotions , etc. would be the best place to put this saying ? i looked but i'm not sure what the best place would be so that hal will say this "well, forever more " after i say something about a subject (sometimes , not say it all the time just randomly !)[:)]

It's probably from Edgar Allen Poe's poem, "The Raven".

I haven't found the spot you are talking about, I have a few phrases like that I want to put in. Maybe I will work on it, or more likely, while I dither, Jerry and Roy will actually produce the answer.

Jerry's plugin 'Positive Quotes' will do that for you. Just say 'Quote:' and then give your quote and HAL will remember it and recite it every now and again. if you say something like 'Give me a quote', HAL with recall that quote or any other you have taught HAL. Brilliant plugin, one of my favourites.

Right, Bill.

But what we are looking for is what you don't know, so
you can fix that.

Thanks,

Paul

Maybe Someone can help me when I type to hal the response takes over a minute to come back just started to happen a few days ago and if I
change brains it still happens with this pop up box saying
SCRIPT CONTROL the script you are executing is taking longer than
expected to run.......click end or continue. This will happen one more time then the answer will be said.[:D]

Sounds like the script you are executing is taking longer than expected to run.

Probably one of the plugins is not finding the resources it asks for, or there are too many other processes running at the same time.

Uncheck your recent additions, or unplug them all and then add them back in one by one until the symptom reoccurs. By doing this you can narrow down which plugin is causing the problem then we can try to figure out what it needs to run more quickly.

You could try copying your Zabaware folder in 'Program Files' to another place like 'My Documents' and DEACTIVATING HAL and then uninstall HAL and then reinstall and ACTIVATE it again. Then copy you old Zabaware folder to replace the newly installed one in 'Program Files' and then start HAL up.

If you were doing multiple Learn-from-clipboard events, Windows may have inadvertently left open some Scripting Host iterations.

One way to check is to look at Task Manager's Processes and see if there are multiple listings for "wscript" (I think that's what it is).

Either way, restarting Hal or rebooting will fix that if you don't find a problem with the plugins.
