Well, I'm using it :P I think I may also have community news, so I may add stuff like TI-Calc news, and things like "KnightOS Released!  Click here to download"

Sounds great! And how about special notifications for Omnimaga news articles to separate them from normal post updates (e.g. in a different format)?

Mhmm it might be best to keep Omni news and articles together. Otherwise it will get hard to filter.

I'll think about it.  I may just add Cemetech and leave it at that.  Who knows?

Maybe UTI but idk if that would be easy without RSS feeds. Besides that, maybe TI-BANK.

Strange, I haven't noticed that, but I'll check to see if it's the case for me too. Maybe something SirCmpwn might want to look into.

That's weird, Netham.  I'll look into it, I haven't noticed.
As for UTI, it's dying, honestly. TI-Bank is in French and I don't feel like figuring out where it hides its syndication.

Well I suggested UTI since its "death" was not really certain yet. If we only count calc discussion, they have more activity than they had in early 2005, right now. All will depend how new members are treated or how new members will treat others, IMHO, seeing as the lacking in this area in 2009 has caused several UTI members to migrate to Omnimaga. However, seeing how MaxCoderz went with the years, I am not so confident United-TI will enjoy a major activity increase anytime soon. I would say wait for a bit and if they get more Nspire news we don't get, then maybe add support for them if possible.

For now I would say go for Omni and Cemetech. Also for TI-BANK I am now confirming that they have no RSS feeds.

Grrr...
"Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile (x86 and x64)" is required... which I usually don't mind, since either Mono or WINE can handle it on Linux. But....

(click above to enlarge)

Of course, I said no.
I poked around to see if I had to crack the setup.exe open, or if it's in the subdirectories.
It was indeed there! But...

Needless to say, it didn't work. As usual, Mono is two steps behind Microsoft.

This is *EXACTLY* why I have .NET so much - tons of bulk, and annoyance like this.
No one gave me the memo that .NET 4 is >1GB... :P

Anyway, complaining won't help the situation. I'm an OK programmer, I do have some time this weekend, and... (*wink* ;) *wink*) might be able to write a PostNotifier for Linux/Mac! :) Obviously, I would like to see demand before I actually commit to writing code, so say YAY to signify that you want it. ;)

Aw that sucks x.x

Maybe a Linux version would be a good idea. I would link to it on the front page where is located the other at the bottom of the latest posts list.

Ooh, yes, I'd like a Mac version, please. But no admin requirements if possible. And Linux would be nice, too, but I'll be using the Mac one more :)

Okie dokie, I have 2 people. Anyone one else who would want a Linux/Mac version? :D
(And btw, the toolkit and language I will use *is* crossplatform, but I will not build a Windows version since SirCmpwn already has one up, and I don't want to interfere with his project.)

@Deep Thought: Mac user? Ooohh! Could I use you for testing? I need some Mac testers to ensure that it works, and that the GUI looks as native as possible. :)

Yes, and for the record, I'd be glad to test for Linux as well. I'm kinda wary of testing for Windows because it is my parents' comp :P

EDIT: If I screw something up really badly in Ubuntu running off a flash drive, could that affect the hard disk?

Just make sure the hard disk is umounted and that you're not running the program as root. You should be fine :)

Oh, thanks.

Would "safe mode" work? I think that's the mode that doesn't allow writing to the hard disk, but I'm not sure. And then I don't know how to use it. What is it?
