Dear,
Because the "Today's active Topics" list does not show new or modified FAQs
we will point you on one of them
Cannot find what you are looking for? still questions? (2nd edition)
It tries to give you an answer on questions like
- cannot find what you are looking for? looking at the forums
- where can I find the "kixtart.org" UDF's and FAQ's, when this board isn't available?
- is there an easy way to see "who are the most active users"?
- sometimes it is very hard to find something back by subject description. are there alternatives?
- is there a more extended version of "Today's Active Topics"?
- where can I find the latest status of kixtart release.
- I have printed Kixtart word document, but are there also other versions available?
- are there other interesting sites which handles about Kixtart?
- we have still a question. we need some advise.
Also it includes a script which collects information of your kixtart environment.
Information very handy for the people on this board when they are trying to help you.
An example from such run is:
code:
-sunday 2003/03/09 08:50:55- kixtart 4.20 script starting (collect_info.kix)
-
-curdir: d:\
-scriptdir: d:

MCA,
I think the content of this post needs and must be trimmed down!! While the original post may not cover all of the ground you are covering, it does a pretty decent job. It may not be updated, but we can accomodate on that score too.
Viewing the content that you posted is way too much most people would become quickly frustrated and go on. We need to keep posts, FAQs, short and sweet. If there is code to offer that is relevant, that is another thing. We really should use the idea similar to the "résumé rule" used at most companies and corporations where the HR Dept is only going to take 10-15 seconds to scan (and not really read the content) of a résumé and they are going to go on to the next one. Likewise, a reader on this or any other web site would operate in much the same fashion.
Kent

Dear Kent,
When it is necessary to trim it a little bit down.
Please move it to this forum, but don't forget to reopen topic.
Also we like to hear how you like to see it.
A short review shows me, that it will be good that a possible questions were
putting on the front.
The script was here included, because we doesn't have the time to put it on our
site.
