It has been a while since I have worked with newlisp, and posted here, so let me say hi to all.
I took som time to download the lates greatest and play with it. I was pleased to see the evelotion of blog and wiki, keep up the good work!
Then, came monday morning and I got the first phone call, many of the exsisting exsisting cgi's on my server were blowing up. The reason was simple, I hace not kept up with the depreciated subbers, and had jumped many versions of newlisp in one leap :(
First (substring) had to be replaced with (chop), ok (substring got chopped I can deal with that in thais age of cut backs and downsizeing.
Then (concat) had to be replaced with (append with a -1 appended in select places. Appending to (append to fix a distinct lacking of (conact was indead ironic to say the least. When I found myseld replacing (remove with (replace using a replace all, because (remove had been removed, I knew I had fallen into carefull crafted Syntactical trap. There were dark forces lurking here :) As it turned out that was all that was needed in a bunch of files.
Now that that problem is solved, and things are back running, I am back to playing in blog and wiki land.
My short term goal is to create a blog, where each new topic is centered around an image. I envision uploading a jpg or png using http put and placed as the focal point of the page. I do believe that everyone is using a modern browser these days that supports http upload.
As a Collectors, hobbyists, photographers, artists, ... we want to be able to upload a jpg or png of our latest great creation or find into a Blog. Be it fishing for approval or seeking answers, it is the feedback from the other in the Blog that inspires the posting.
I do plan on looking at wiki much closer, at first glance it looks like it would work well for maintaining a galery of a collection.
A bit off subject, the "gallery" project written in PHP is heading off in that direction but does not have the level of interaction, you have with wiki.
One final question:
Are there any example of http-upload that I may have missed ?
Now .. Back to the grind stone :)
