Mac RC Bugs and Suggestions

Suggestion: make it possible to open more then one window of RC instances from the same app

bug: cmd+z is bound to ctrl+z
Edit: didn't see this:

edit: also ctrl+f

i made this sort of possible by adding a '&' to the exec line (at the bottom) in rc file (open with textedit, or similar) in RC.app/Contents/MacOS/ and made a alias (shortcut) to it on the desktop

no need to make multiply rc app files

i was just wondering where the heck the PM's was stored because someone signed off just when i was about to open the PM he sent me.
i found them in "~/.graal/rc/pms/".

i don't like that location at all, as it should be in "~/Library/Application Support/Graal/" or even in the application itself, which would be "../Resources/pms/"

It shouldn't be stored in the application itself. The appropriate place would be in the same folder as the client (in Application Support).

I'm also having that issue. Also, I find the syntax highlighting to be off, some what annoying.

Okay, So I figured out how to fix the syntax highlighting if anyone is interested.

So using finder, locate your RC and open up its contents. Then once you get to graalcolors.xml, just open it with any default text editor.

PHP Code:

~/Applications/RC.app/Contents/Resources/language-specs/graalcolors.xml 


Then add the following line into graalcolors.xml, just make sure you keep it inside the style-scheme brackets.

PHP Code:

<style name="def:string" foreground="#C000C0" /> 


Enjoy (Strings was the only thing that bothered me, there's still a couple other fixes that could be done)!

Thank you! been so annoyed by this

will rep later (:

Edit: played around with it and added functions aswell.

PHP Code:

<style name="def:function" foreground="#32B3C1" /> 


however, if you just add that in, you'll have [], !, @, =, ==, etc also colored
so go into graal.lang and change the stylename of these, into whatever you like, i just added a "2" after function like such:

PHP Code:

<pattern-item _name="Operators" style="Function 2">
    <regex>[-~^@/%|=+*!?&amp;&lt;&gt;]</regex>
</pattern-item>

<pattern-item _name="Array Operators" style="Function 2">
    <regex>(\[|\])</regex>
</pattern-item>

Stefan, if you could do me a solid later and update Mac RC with the patches posted before my post; that'd be great. Just downloaded RC to another one of my Mac and the syntax was off and I had forgotten how to fix it till I found this thread.

Thanks!

Can you post your graalcolors.xml file?

Why, too lazy to actually add it yourself? ;P

yes of course, i can do that- just a quick note on that the Application folder isnt in "~/Applications/", but "/Applications/", if somebody has difficulties to find that folder hhaha

I don't have a Fisher Price computer, so I can't just 'download' it. I'm more interested in seeing if I can mod the Windows RC2 using it.

How'd you guess?
