Also try Unless this is a different operation with a similar name, don't bother. Computer Rennaisance is pricey and, based on a scientifically inadequate sample of one (oh, I wish he had asked me for help *before* pissing the money away), not very good at fixing simple problems. When he finally asked me to lok at it, after months and many trips (with a toll each time, of course) to CR, it was something almost as trivial as setting the hard drive's parameters correctly in the BIOS. That wasn't it exactly, but it was about as close to rocket science as that. Let me put it this way: I had told him, more than half in jest, that I'd look at it and if I fixed it he should pay me half as much as CR had charged him for not fixing it last time he took it in. After it was done, I felt bad taking that much for healing it (but at that point he was insisting, and I had to be firm to keep it at half their fee). Hmmmm, I hadn't realized that I still needed to talk about that. Thanks, doc. Nice restful couch you have here in my office. ;-) --- ChicagoLand Linux Users Group: general discussion mailing list.

I'm working on a program, that is, upon user's choice, produce a verbose output of a process; i.e. how much is done, and how much is left. I have seen programs using a bar such as these: [............ ] [........................ ] to summarize the progress. (Unfortunately, none of the program's source code is available, AFAIK) Now, I have no problem printing the dots. :) The problems creeps up when the number of operations to be done are larger than one line's characters (usually, 80), and I want to use only *one* line for status. Any ideas? Thanks, Nikita. P.s. Following is the source code, showing how little I was able to accomplish. ------ #include #include void main(void) { unsigned int sampleSize = 800; unsigned int sampleDone = 0; unsigned int otherNumber = 0; unsigned int count = 0; sampleDone = sampleSize; if(sampleSize < 80) { printf("Small\n"); otherNumber = sampleSize + 1; } if(sampleSize % 80 != 1 && sampleSize > 80) { printf("Multiple\n"); /* otherNumber = (sampleSize - 9) / 9; otherNumber = 72; */ } else { /* Primes, and numbers not evenly divisible by 80 */ } while(sampleDone > 0) { if(sampleDone % otherNumber) { count++; printf("."); } sampleDone--; } printf("\nOtherNumber = %d\n", otherNumber); printf("Count = %d\n", count); /* How many dots we have. */ } >From owner-bugtraq(_at_)netspace(_dot_)org Wed Jun 30 13:35:39 1999 Return-Path: Received: from localhost (root(_at_)localhost [127.0.0.1]) by imaxx.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id NAA28488 for ; Wed, 30 Jun 1999 13:35:38 -0500 Received: from mail.imaxx.net by localhost with POP3 (fetchmail-4.7.9) for jmd(_at_)localhost (single-drop); Wed, 30 Jun 1999 13:35:38 -0500 (CDT) Received: by mothra for know (with Cubic Circle's cucipop (v1.21 1997/08/10) Wed Jun 30 12:35:18 1999) X-From_: owner-bugtraq(_at_)netspace(_dot_)org Wed Jun 30 12:21:28 1999 Received: from brimstone.netspace.org (brimstone.netspace.org [128.148.157.143]) by mothra.imaxx.net (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id MAA13095; Wed, 30 Jun 1999 12:21:28 -0500 Received: from netspace.org ([128.148.157.6]:8714 "EHLO netspace.org" ident: "TIMEDOUT2") by brimstone.netspace.org with ESMTP id <51619-10933>; Wed, 30 Jun 1999 13:51:15 -0400 Received: from NETSPACE.ORG by NETSPACE.ORG (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 1792024 for BUGTRAQ(_at_)NETSPACE(_dot_)ORG; Wed, 30 Jun 1999 17:51:01 +0000 Approved-By: aleph1(_at_)UNDERGROUND(_dot_)ORG Received: from customer.refract.com (root(_at_)customer(_dot_)refract(_dot_)com [206.170.13.5]) by netspace.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id RAA25989 for ; Mon, 28 Jun 1999 17:52:46 -0400 Received: from lappy (ppp-207-214-213-145.sntc01.pacbell.net [207.214.213.145]) by customer.refract.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id OAA23508; Mon, 28 Jun 1999 14:54:43 -0700 References: <19990625132402(_dot_)A13194(_at_)area51(_dot_)verge(_dot_)net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 Message-ID: <005e01bec1b0$8bc4fbe0$0400000a(_at_)refract(_dot_)com> Date: Mon, 28 Jun 1999 14:52:34 -0700 Reply-To: "Nicholas W.

But I think we've solved that." > - Marcus Larry, 1999 As Neil Christie pointed out in private email is this the fault of Outlook and not Qpopper. Here is what he had to say: The POP3 RFC suggests that duplicate UIDLs are acceptable for example in the situation that there are two identical copies of 1 message in a mailbox. As such the fault is with Outlook etc in failing to handle this as opposed to in qpopper for generating / allowing them. Whether the POP server should accept incoming UIDL headers in the message or always generate its own is another issue.
