Advenio MacXword: Yay, no more Across Lite in Classic for my crossword puzzle solving (not that I've had much more time for it). Looks and works very well, although it needs some more keyboard support.

A quick tip for resource-editor-savvy Mac OS X users (perhaps you can do this with QuicKeys too?) who work the way I do. Edit the Finder's View menu so you can switch views from the keyboard. That way, you can work normally in icon view, but if you encounter a hierarchy of unorganized files that you want to go through quickly (MP3s, DocServer pages, the contents of an application package, etc.) you can quickly switch to column view to find what you want. I find it works really well.

Found a mini-bug in html.writeFile, probably my fault actually, but it assumes 'folder' is a string. Change:

path = string.mid (f, sizeOf (folder), infinity)

to:

path = string.mid (f, sizeOf (string (folder)), infinity)

and all should be happy, as I wait for the DocServer site to render locally.

Sorten Muld is very much the right music for this wet, rainy, gray weather. Thanks, Fredrik, for introducing me to it. (We miss you…)

Well, if Jim is doing the upstreaming-to-Conversant thing, it shouldn't be so much of a surprise that I'm working on the upstreaming-to-WebDAV thing. My first upstreaming success is here. I haven't tackled the hard problem of deleting yet, but this is a start. (This post should be upstreamed there, too, I hope...)

Question about the #upstream.xml files for anyone who's watching: As a test, I added an #upstream.xml to the www/categories/webdavTest folder. When I added a theme to that folder, Radio created an images folder inside the webdavTest folder. But that images folder got upstreamed to UserLand's server using the xmlStorageSystem driver, not using my #upstream.xml. Is it normal behavior that the #upstream.xml does not affect an entire hierarchy? (This is different from how #directives have worked since Frontier 4, in that case.)
