I think it's interesting that we often qu-ote each other in our sigs and attribute the qu-otes to "The Lounge". --- Daniel Fergusson, "The Lounge"

I don't mean to appear rude ? But that looks kinda like VB, no wonder you didn't wanna post an article. :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

it's true. I'm so ashamed. Ok, JScript version:

//javascript for determining if CP is up
var WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
while (true)
{
if (0 == WshShell.Run("ping www.codeproject.com", 6, true))
WshShell.Popup("Woo Hoo!");
else
WScript.Sleep(240000);
}

Yeah I shouldn't laugh, Because I don't indestand any of these script languages, And you guys are all making the big bucks now. :-( Regardz Colin J Davies

Played a handful of games of MiniPutt Part Deux, still don't like it. Did laundry. Got my car washed. Did some coding. Drank 4 bottles of Sapporo beer. Watched tape of last Sunday's Alias. Watched tonight's Alias. Well, ok, not all of those were done during the outage. I think by the time I got into the coding mood I'd given up on hitting refresh every 30 seconds. ;) --Mike-- Actual sign at the laundromat I go to: "No tinting or dying" Like the Google toolbar? Then check out UltraBar, with more features & customizable search engines! My really out-of-date homepage Big fan of Alyson Hannigan and Jamie Salé.

Nothing wrong with VB - though I'm a little dissapointed it wasn't done in C# ;) cheers, Chris Maunder

Jon Sagara

In no particular order:

Watched Law & Order, both Criminal Intent and Special Victims Unit.
Watched The Simpsons.
Watched King of the Hill.
Watched The Masters.
Ate dinner.
Worked on my website.
Sat in a lawnchair and drank beer while my neighbor washed his car. (very King-of-the-Hillish, wouldn't you say?)

All in all, a meaningless, and yet somehow satisfying, day in my life. :) Jon Sagara There is no spoon.

Michael P Butler

Watched the football (come on you Gunners) Played Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. Did a support call to an idiot user. Looked at the Return to Castle Wolfenstein source code Read slashdot Michael :-)

Michael P Butler

Does C# run with the Windows Script stuff? If it doesn't, it would be cool if it did. Have a word with your buddies at Microsoft :-D Michael :-)

It wasn't the 3d engine part, it was the game mechanics. ID have released the source to most of their software in the past. You can download Quake, Doom and Wolfenstein3d from http://www.idsoftware.com/archives/sourcearc.html You can get the Return to Castle Wolfenstein source from http://www.bluesnews.com/files/rtcw/source/wolf_source.shtml Michael :-)
