Markov3 (by Joe Buck)Here's the old markov3.l program posted to net.sources in 1987 by Joe Buck.
I tried it on a modern Linux system today (in Sept 2005) and it still makes. (But you young ones will have to figure out what command you use to extract a "shar" file!)

PL/I"At first I hoped that such a technically unsound project would collapse but I soon realized it was doomed to success. Almost anything in software can be implemented, sold, and even used given enough determination. There is nothing a mere scientist can say that will stand against the flood of a hundred million dollars. But there is one quality that cannot be purchased in this way--and that is reliability. The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay."-- C. A. R. Hoare, describing the development of the PL/I programming language

/set field = valueIf you have "write" privelege to a field due to your auth level and the FieldDesc, you will see lines like this when you edit pages:/set field1 ?= value list ... /set field2(subkey) ?= value list ... You can use these to edit fields, but you must change ?= to = When you save the page, these are processed if the first word is "/set" and the third is "=". Omit (subkey) if no subkey (i.e. empty subkey). Setting the list to empty deletes the field record. If a field does not exist, it is not shown. You can add it. |
ALT TEXT now caption in /galleryWhen you used Alt Text with syntax /imagefile filename alt text... inside a gallery, the Alt Text was not added to the caption (the lines following). Now it is. This fixes gregr's recent intended caption in rp's wz3 gallery. |
