Title: To Mister J River.
Post by: KingSparta on May 12, 2003, 11:57:50 am

To Mister J River.

I have Been Working on a Program (Chart, Lyrics, Cover Art and Bios Finder) As You Might Already Know.

Today I Got Get Bios Working And Is Working On The 1.0.51 Version I Just Uploaded (And It Is Working Good But Still in Testing). Currently The Info is Being Saved to the Notes Field.

What I Would Like to Know Is:

Would It Be Possible To Get Word Wrap In "Notes" And "Lyrics" Edit Box?

Also a Bios Edit Box with Word Wrap?


PS. Check Out Bios For 10cc

this looks like a neat program.  does anyone know of a site with online liner notes?  it would be cool to have them for the music i have ripped, especially the box sets.

King,
your plugin is taking off and becoming a crazily cool tool for extra info for the tracks. It's great.

That bug where it has to keep focus however is becoming more annoying as your plugin is becoming more useful as it means it's effecting us more.

I'm not sure if you've ever used IRC or anything but there are rooms in there full of programmers, I'm sure one of them could help you fix it so it didn't come to the front.
Either that or maybe even just ask on here for someone who is good with whichever language you program it in.
Maybe one of them could help.

It would just be soooooo much nicer a plugin if we could run it while still doing other things on our machine instead of it insisting on being in the foreground the whole time.

Great job on the even more features :)

if this info goes to the 'notes' box, will it then just add to what is there already, or will it overwrite? just curious, because 'notes' is where i keep my list of musicians' info . . . .

If there is something in notes it will not over write the bios unless you Press The "Get Bios" Button

If You Use The Batch Or Just Click On A File In The List. If There Is Something In Bios More Than 19 Chrs Then That Will Not Be Saved To.
