Fw: From Alone Coder

Hello(s), All...! === Cut === Message: 1990 of 2000 ZX.SPECTRUM From: Dima Bystrov 2:5029/77.48 Mon 06 Sep 04 20:53 To: All Topic: Appeal to Ivan Roshchin "Dear Ivan, 'substitute your middle name.' Not everyone can use your BestView program due to its shortcomings, namely: 1. turbo disk driver, instead of the standard one #3d13. 2. size is too large due to excess functions (all the same turbo driver, initial splashscreen, deleting files, frequency table flip, one-frame scroll, screensaver, preview, capture text from an arbitrary window) and support formats that are practically not used. Also hampered by the size of help, which never optimized for brevity and compressed by Hrust 1.x, which is not optimal for text. 3. small buffer for text, non-standard font typeface (due to 4x6 mask) and low text window, which is all connected with the same one-frame scroll. We don't really need him users. 4. unfixed pt3 player (player correct since v3.67) and lack of support for common formats lc5.2, rip, rar. We are forced to assume that the cause of these shortcomings was lack of feedback from users. This is also indicated by the fact that there are no links to users in the change history. Please correct situation, for which it is desirable: 1. organize a forum, mailing lists,correspondence with users. 2. correct the listed shortcomings, although publishing another line of program compilations (if the author himself cannot use a program that corresponds to the proposed concept). 3. start distributing the source code of the program to study it users and their creation of more specific proposals. 4. Publish the author’s home address/telephone number and any other methods connections in addition to those already published. The appeal was made on September 5, 2004. This appeal is signed by: 1. Alone Coder aka Dima Bystrov 2:5029/77.48 2. KSA-7G aka Sergey Koluzanov (minus the words about deletion, preview and capture) (Alone Coder's note: to delete you need rename and preferably move) your suggestions on points of appeal? We'll agree, sign, send...
