Title: Day Function
Post by: n2wxb on September 24, 2005, 08:02:57 pm

Is there a way to Toggle Thee appointment function on and off? Its annoying when you say a day of the week and hal automaticly turns it in to an appointment. I have been checking the forum, and haven't seen a topic on this, or I just don't know how to word it right for the search feature.

To borrow a quote from vonsmith:
"The Appointment Book function in Hal is hard coded in the main part of Hal's program. It sometimes isn't selective interpreting your inputs. Sometimes Hal thinks you want to make an appointment."

If you search for appointment you'll see a lot of postings in this area.

Thanks Art!  I guess I will have to think carefully before I talk about days of the week. Oh well, Thanks again for the info!

Jon,

You're welcome! Sometimes I find Hal to be too literal when I chat. Once I said I find clowns amusing. It said, "I will now search for clowns." And it opened IE and displayed pages of clowns!

With Hal be careful what you wish for...you might get it!!

Take care!
