Ideally 64 it would be about a 3 month full-time situation (or equivalent if 65 several were involved), and is TP5.5 based using Object Professional's 66 libraries (in part). The application is a fun one (at least for me!): 67 it's for networked high school/college labs w/lots of screen sharing 68 and application coordination to support group work/cooperative learning. 69 Expertise needed includes TP5.5 OOP, familiarity with Opro, and 70 technical knowledge of ISR control of hardware (keyboard, screen, 71 mouse). 72 73 I'd be glad to share further details if you'd like.

I 129 suppose this means you want to see the algorithm now? :-) 130 It uses an array of records for the point stack (5 bytes per point), 131 and is not recursive. A large fill such as yours requires about 200 132 points to be on the point stack, max. It's SLOW, though. It uses 133 getpixel() and line() to read and draw pixels.

This is in preperation for the next 160 change which will increase the size of the mail room which has been 161 experiencing indigestion. Normally it isn't a problem unless old mail 162 backs up and the room gets full. Anyway, the change is to move the 163 mens, and ladies rooms to a sperate disk drive. The new room is being 164 created to test the new configuration out. I had been meaning to add the 165 room ever since the new system was brought on line, but space limitations 166 prevented it from being added to the same drive as all the other rooms. 167 I've changd the software to allow the ifles to be moved to a seperate disk 168 I don't want to actually move the files until the new setup is tested out 169 though, so I've added thenew room to test the waters first. 170 The new room will be called the Blue room, and like the mens and ladies rooms, 171 it will be limited access. The room will be like the old Blue Parrot 172 blue room, orientedtowards "blue" subject matter. The "F" word is allowed, 173 but keep in mind that the "F" word will still attivate the auto-twit 174 function if you are outside the blue room, so be careful if you 175 have a desire to use the word. 176 Let me know what you think about all this.
