The Design and Implementation of laffer1

I don't think richard gets it. I had to kick him twice from the server tonight. He then posts in the chat box like it wasn't that bad. After the last week, he's disrespected me enough. I am the clan leader. I don't think its too much to ask not to dis me on my own fucking server which I pay for. If he doesn't get it soon, I'll have to consider my options which are few.

I've got the just journal client posted to the server but i've also got a new version on my local disk here. I made several changes to the login form so it doesn't die if it can't connect in a bad way. The cursor changes during the connection and the form is disabled as well. I'm trying to setup a registry hive to save the password/username to. I still don't have spell check up yet. Its coming though. I'm going to rework the post form quite a bit. The graphics aren't bad but i'll go for a different look. I definetely need to add some more menus and drop some of the check boxes. Sometimes i think too HTML 3 when i make a form. :) I may have rich text format up soon as well.

In between our devistating defeat and evan's accusation time, I managed to get a bunch of housework done. vacuming, moping and a whole lot more! (fragment lol) Oh and i can't stress enough how stupid evan is. I kicked someone out of IoM for what he said to me on the server tonight in the past.

Richard, take the hint man. Pushing this thing isn't going to work. Formally threatening my wife is against the law and pisses me off.

I'm testing a new version of the JJ client right now. It now has a tray notification icon that accepts clicks to post. I'm considering adding it to run items or something with an option so users can automate loading it. The actual form sucks but the login screen is near perfect now. The icon is hideous but you can see it instead of the pencil that is near imposible to see in the tray. The new icon is the pencil with white lettering "JJ" and black square. It saves your username and password in the registry unencrypted. I will use the crypto api on it later. Maybe a SHA1 storage of it would be good. It warns you when saving about the lack of encryption and its totally optional. I still need to create a preferences window and integrate some other features in it too. I have registry key saving working for user/pass saves and auto login.

I toyed with the malloc flags today on my local file server and the production webserver. Both now don't zero out memory and use smaller cache sizes. Its a little risky if the code is written poorly, but it is a huge speed increase. Even caryn noticed. Dovecot is much faster in particular. I also tried to write some new JJ server code today. I somewhat gave up on that for now. I'll just port to maverick as much as i can and work on getting all the views in XSL/XML.
