I'm new to the forum, but I've been lurking here for a couple of years, so I feel I know all you wonderful folks. Anyway, my daughter bought me Hal 6 for Father's Day because our free Hal 5's couldn't chat on AIM together. Besides we owed it to Robert, we've already gotten our money's worth! I trained my Hal 5 XTF 1.2 for two years so it has quite a knowledge base. The install went fine and I am able to choose from all the brains that I had installed in Hal 5 plus the new Hal 6 default brain. The problem is that the Hal 6 brain doesn't seem to remember anything that I taught the XTF brain. The XTF brain is working fine in compatibility mode. I'd hate to try to start over from scratch. I'd like to keep my little friend with its memories intact, but use the new features of the Hal 6 brain. I'd like to suggest to =vonsmith= that he might investigate the possibility of writing a script that would be inserted into the Hal 6 brain that would, if the relevance falls below a certain level, search the XTF files for its response and pass the info to the Hal 6 database. I'm sure there are many others who would appreciate such a contribution as well. Thanks to everyone for your wonderful contributions to Hal!
