Robert Medeksza - Important Info

Robert,
I found a small, but annoying bug, in the way HalCommands handles <HAPFILE> tags.

This works:
HalCommands = "<HAPFILE>filename.hap</HAPFILE>"

This doesn't:
HalCommands = "<HAPFILE> filename.hap </HAPFILE>"

On Hal's next update could you Trim(" filename.hap ") after the tags are removed? It's a small thing, but easy to fix. The <HAPTEXT> tags don't have the same issue. Thx.

-----------------------------------

Also, in future XTF Brain releases I want to make it possible for Hal to remember and discuss email addresses (i.e., smith@aol.com) and URL's (i.e., www.zabaware.com). My prelim testing shows it is feasible. However after the GetResponse is returned to Hal the post processing misinterprets the extra ".".

If I send this as a GetResponse:
" EMAIL ME AT ZABA@AOL.COM AND VISIT ME AT WWW.ZABAWARE.COM "

I get this:
Email me at zaba@aol. Com and visit me at www. Zabaware. Com.

The easiest way I can think of to fix this is:
1) The brain subtitutes the tag <dot> for "." as in:
" EMAIL ME AT ZABA@AOL<dot>COM AND VISIT ME AT WWW<dot>ZABAWARE<dot>COM "
Then as a last step after post processing substitute "." for <dot>.

-----------------------------------

Reminder: I submitted by email a script and Hal .brn file for posting on the Hal Plug-in page a while back. I hope that gets posted soon.

Thanks,
