Weird or wrong? I'm a bit rusty on regexp but it looks ok to me. Found it on the net.

and dont some smtp servers have passwords ?

Hmmm, didn't think of that. I'm pretty sure my ISP blocks access to smtp servers other than its own. It' supposed to combat spam.

Anyone have an ISP that doesn't do that that would like to expand the code to include a password?

Walkabout.

I have received all work done by Jeremy/Brian and have been working on modifying the basics UDF standards to be able to publish them. (see link below)

Also been modifying lots of UDF's adding Optional parameters (Great stuff this new feature! ).

I am going to try to get all below listed UDF's ready for the next release and plan to have the UDF's also included in the SciTE intellisense option for ease of coding.

==> Page containing all info needed to qualify for inclusion of a UDF.

==> List of "Latest versions of all UDF libraries (updated Feb 17, 2005)" include files

==> Installer which will update your V3.1.0 Helpfile and UDF files to the latest version (updated Feb 17, 2005) (contains these changes)

I welcome input on the listed UDFs like errors/ideas/Helppage-typo's etc..

Also new UDF's are welcome as long as they adhere to the standards and are usefull for a larger group of scripters. (and time permits to get it included )

Thanks to Jeremy Landes/Brian Keene for all the work they have done.

I'd like to recommend that all UDF's have accurate and appropriate documentation, so users don't have to read the code to find out how they work.

It would be great if all documentation has the same look/style/format, like the AutopIt helpfile.

Each UDF should have a 1-line synposis/description explaining the UDF, as well as a seprate paragaph describing arguments, ereturn values, and other details.

Documentation is more important than the UDF itself!!

If I am not mistaken... that is what the very first post in this thread describes. I am unsure if everyone has followed the rules of the UDF post though.

I know back in the beginning when I made a UDF, when I submitted it, I had to write like 3 different documents for it to be included.

I agree that the documentation is the most important part.

Where are these UDFs, and the helpfile for them tha tpeople keep referring to?

I've run the installer for 3.1.1, but there is no reference to _Singleton in the hlpfile, nor are there any udfs included in the installer.

_Singleton and some other UDFs are installed with the beta and the docs for them are in the beta helpfile. Each UDF also has a header which can be seen if you open the include file for the UDF. Also others such as _ArrayDisplay are already in the stable (aka 3.1.1)

No I have it.

I didn't understand why Scite has two runs/compiles. I asn't seeing anything different between thw tow.

I'm surprised that the BEta feautes aren't greyed out when they are not installed.

Thanks for the tip.

I really need the _Singleton feature. My Autoit script started misbehaving miserably, after running fine.

It had aborted, but there were 4 copies still running in Task Manager.

First time having to ask something that I could not find after enough searching through the forums.

I was under the impression that the result of Func _ArrayPush(ByRef $avArray, $sValue, $i_Direction = 1) will be $sValue at the location $avArray[0] and each original value from $avArray[0] to $avArray[2nd last] will be moved up one position.

e.g. Array with 1,2,3,4,5 --- Push 8 with direction 1 will result in 8,1,2,3,4

Currently it returns 8,2,3,4,5

In the UDF the line is :-

"For $i = (UBound($avArray) - 1) To 1"

Shouldn't it be

"For $i = (UBound($avArray) - 1) To 1 Step -1"

for the loop to be effective at all?

-I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but the help file says

"A For loop will execute zero times if:

start > stop and step >= 0"

Maybe an Error?

GuiListView

_GUICtrlListViewDeleteItemsSelected

If no Item is selected in the respective listview, this one crashed for me.

Cured for me with change from

For $i = $items[0] to 1 Step -1
    _GuiCtrlListViewDeleteItem($h_listview, $items[$i])
Next

to

if IsArray($items) then
    For $i = $items[0] to 1 Step -1
        _GuiCtrlListViewDeleteItem($h_listview, $items[$i])
    Next
endif

more appropriatly it would be changed to:

Local $items = _GUICtrlListViewGetSelectedIndices($h_listview, 1, $s_WindowTitle, $s_WindowText)
        If $items = $LV_ERR Then Return

[Polyphem]

Edit: Works the way you mentioned it.

$LV_ERR gave me a -1 all the time.

that's the code for $LV_ERR if no items selected then $LV_ERR is returned.

[Daniel W.]

I wrote an _isPrime function.

it tests if a number is a prim number or not

I posted another script for this before but i had some errors and now here is the improved code in the .rar file

[BlindWanderer]

I've made some additions and changes to the "Date.au3" UDF

I've maintained functionality and adding 3 new functions.

Func _DateShiftMonthYear($iMonthNum, $iYear, $iDirection)

Func _DateShiftWeekdayNum($iWeekdayNum, $iDirection)

Func _DateShiftMonthNum($iMonthNum, $iDirection)

they make the Next & Last functions kinda pointless.

_DateNextMonthNum

_DateNextWeekdayNum

_DateNextMonthYear

_DateLastMonthNum

_DateLastWeekdayNum

_DateLastMonthYear

Date.au3

Added two new constants to GuiEdit.au3

Global Const $SB_TOP_LEFT = 6

Global Const $SB_BOTTOM_RIGHT = 7

They work with _GUICtrlEditScroll, the help for _GUICtrlEditScroll should be updated.

I'll look at adding them, and IF I add them In then the help file would be updated.

Would be helpful to know where you got the values for those two.

I'm not finding any documentation to support those, and until I do they won't be added.
