21:55:25 It was reported that it just didn't do anything, and that was my experience with it on the Inkscape installer - I /had/ to go up to 2.46 21:55:44 Listen, open appinfo.ini, remove the empty lines, save it, and voila it works 21:55:53 That's not the point. 21:56:05 It works with NSIS proper, so it should work with Unicode NSIS. 21:56:31 I don't really care if there's a workaround, and I'm sure Jim Park feels the same way; it needs to be fixed to maintain as full compatibility as possible 21:56:40 NSISa 2.45 has the same behaviour as NSISu 2.45 21:57:56 It couldn't be long before he brings out 2.46 (I hope) 21:59:19 Did you find the problem with ${RunSegment} Core Init 22:08:12 gringoloco: it's entirely due to !searchreplace 22:08:57 And due to NSIS proper 2.45, it' not up to JimPark 22:08:59 Take a look at the SegmentFile macro, you'll see it uses !searchreplace to get the base name of the segment 22:09:16 Hey,wait 22:10:04 At first I wondered that, then I decided it was quite a different problem which was being manifested between the two versions, A 2.45 and U 2.45.1. 22:10:46 A 2.45 was as I recall it causing compilation to fail when !searchreplace was used. 22:10:58 Ah, now I get you, is this what's making the odd characters 22:11:12 Yes 22:11:42 It takes ${__FILE__} (e.g. "Core.nsh")and tries to replace ".nsh" with "" and makes a horrible hash of it 22:12:34 Could it have anything to do with you not using carriage returns for new lines in your .nsh files 22:13:06 Normally with new line there should be hex:0D 0A 22:13:19 Carriage return + New line 22:13:36 But you just use hex:0A 22:14:09 Can you follow me? 22:15:19 gringoloco: it's nothing to do with reading a file. 22:15:25 That's !searchparse. 22:15:35 The fact that !searchparse is broken doesn't worry me so much. 22:15:46 Whereas I depend on !searchreplace. 22:15:53 *** MaienM is now known as MaienM|Sleep 22:16:11 !searchreplace takes a string, and finds another string and replaces it with yet another string in it. 22:16:27 *** Oni-Neoxes (~Oni-Neoxe@unaffiliated/oni-neoxes) has joined #portableapps 22:17:21 You just got this script too complicated, 22:17:44 It's not too complicated for NSIS to handle... 22:17:44 it's getting the strings from a .nsh file, isn't it? 22:18:32 No, it's taking ${__FILE__} (Core.nsh in one instance) and replacing .nsh with "". 22:19:14 The same result is obtained if you try just `!searchreplace out abc a d` and `!echo out` - it /should/ put out dbc but instead makes a muddle. 22:20:10 Guys at this point you might want to move this to -dev 22:20:52 How, I'm new with IRC 22:21:13 /join #portableapps-dev 22:22:05 I think we're finished though. 22:22:14 And I need to continue my planning for going to Uni 22:25:38 *** Usbtastic (~Usbtastic@210.193.201.86) has joined #portableapps 22:28:58 *** Zarggg (~zarggg@65-78-69-194.c3-0.eas-ubr6.atw-eas.pa.cable.rcn.com) has joined #portableapps 22:30:26 *** Usbtastic has parted #portableapps (None) 22:53:16 *** gringoloco has quit (Quit: Leaving) 23:01:26 *** mister_ (~3e8cf221@gateway/web/freenode/x-ednctadwggmynsfe) has joined #portableapps 23:01:57 are there any developers right now?

23:04:55 yes: I didn't want to register :( 23:05:03 mister_: http://portableapps.com/forums/support/firefox_portable there specifically 23:05:16 what, in a nut shell , is the problem mister_ ? 23:05:44 *** dabossbv has quit (Quit: Leaving.) 23:06:04 can anyone of u post this issue? 23:06:07 just 1 psot 23:06:14 what, in a nut shell , is the problem mister_ ? 23:06:35 Here ( http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=1700995&p=8492755#p8492755 ) is described an issue with firefox portable and a new extension that was just developed: it doesn't work correctly for me, as it doesn't ask me for any other path to my profile other than standard one ( %application_data%/Mozilla/ folder), 23:06:48 but I have it in another folder and I can't point the extension to use another path, as it probably calls for AppRegD and CurProcD which (in opinion of extension's developer) are decided at compile time, rather than run time. 23:06:57 He says that for a portable app, it should be figured out at run time. Could you please take a look at it and to fix it, if possible? In any case, please, email me. 23:07:22 *** pa_0108 (~6d7945fd@gateway/web/freenode/x-jwxgwewdjvtccyty) has joined #portableapps 23:07:30 *** pa_0108 has quit (Client Quit) 23:07:33 no, the developer of the extention needs to fix it 23:07:47 he said it's a portable firefox's issue 23:08:10 i doubt they will rewrite the ffp launcher to fix one poorly written extention 23:08:27 what does this extenstion do anyway 23:08:44 it's a private session window opener with 1 click 23:09:01 he said: It would be great if the portableapps folks wrote a fix, rather than me writing a work-around. I'm guessing that directories like AppRegD and CurProcD are decided at compile time, rather than run time. For a portable app, it should be figured out at run time. 23:09:24 as i said, I doubt that they will hack the FFP launher to fix one extension 23:09:30 It's also possible that the command-line flags -CreateProfile or -P aren't working correctly in portable firefox. 23:09:38 dammit, it's a matter of fixing a bug 23:09:42 mister_: the creator doesn't understand FFP 23:09:43 mister_: the bug is his 23:09:45 not to fit 1 extension 23:09:52 FFP USES the profile flag to specify 23:09:59 it's the extension's issue, not FFPs. 23:10:01 plain and simple 23:10:05 He's clearly not storing settings or something in the proper profile directory 23:10:07 are you sure? 23:10:12 Absolutely 23:10:14 Yes mister_. 23:10:19 It is NOT an issue with FFP. 23:10:28 It absolutely IS an issue with the extensions 23:10:32 *extension 23:10:35 mister_: this will entail a good deal of back and forth, I think you should register and post a topic if you think it's that important 23:10:39 thx for your replies, but can anyone take a short look into the code of that extension plz? 23:11:11 I am not qualified to do that mister_ , sorry, i'm not a dev 23:11:12 mister_: it is unlikely 23:11:39 I can't speak for everyone, but I'd say a majority of the users here do not understand how Mozilla extensions work. 23:12:02 WAIT 23:12:03 STOP 23:12:12 well, there should be plain XUL inside... 23:12:13 You see this mister_: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=8493665&sid=09aa2044cf8e735aac7b527573378dc4#p8493665 ? 23:12:19 yeah, just saw that 23:12:24 that is the creator of FFP. 23:12:25 seems like I'm blind 23:12:28 There is your answer. 23:12:31 i didn't notice this answer AT ALL 23:12:32 :( 23:12:36 my bad 23:12:36 plain and simple. 23:13:12 *** kaeos has quit (Quit: kaeos) 23:13:15 :( 23:13:42 good call Gizmokid2005 23:14:07 guys, does anyone of you uses miranda, btw? 23:14:13 He's the developer, nobody here knows any better than he does. 23:14:34 mister_: I do not. 23:14:41 *** ChrisMorgan has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) 23:14:51 nope 23:15:08 ok, thanks for help and good luck 23:16:49 take care, and note mister_ that john/critter jumped in the day you sent your email :) 23:17:45 yeah, I just didn't notice that he is the developer of portable build, and as I didn't get any respond via email - I thought my message was ignored 23:17:48 sorry, my bad 23:17:57 good luck, guys 23:18:02 *** mister_ has quit (Quit: Page closed) 23:24:34 Gizmokid2005: you are good :D 23:24:35 *** Oni-Neoxes has quit (Quit: Quit...
