- Hi there. Just plain old me here. I am working on a cool new project, and
- seeing that everyone here is an Amiga user, I would like to know some of
- your input.
-
- Im writing a new project, which connects to a global server when your amiga
- goes online. Unfortunately, I will be writing it in Blitz basic, as I think
- a few people would be using AMOS whilst it is running.
-
- It has the ability to be able to notify you when users which you add to a
- list come online. For example, say I was added to some guy's list, I would
- be sent a conformation telling me that I have been put on the list. Then,
- whenever I go online and have my program running, the server would notify
- him, and all other people with my info on it, that I am now online.
-
- I am also going to have a WWW pager, which is issued to every user, and
- anyone with a WWW browser can send them a message directly from the pages.
- Its very handy, as the messages are delivered to you almost as soon as you
- go online.
-
- It can also handle online messaging, and also a DCC Chat type scenario,
- which enables you to be able to chat to a user without having to run IRC
- and use loads of memory for the MUI part of it. The program is being
- written with the help of GadToolsBox 2.0 and incorporated into Blitz Basic
- by myself.
-
- I am proposing this here, as I would like to hear all of your comments and
- suggestions. Before you blast me off for using Blitz, I intend to use this
- project to bring all of us AMOS coders together with our Amiga's, as we can
- all be in each others notify list etc. If you have any suggestions as to
- features which should be added, then please inform me of them.
-
- I intend to use CGI scripting to control all of the server options. I am
- currently in deliberations with my redrose provider about getting me some
- space so I can do my own CGI scripting. I also will be incorporating an
- option for the Amiga browsers, to call them through their AREXX port for
- various different options and stuff.
-
- Anyone out there had any experience with Blitz? Im having problems actually
- calling a URL (with a CGI script in the command) and actually getting the
- reply back from the CGI script. Help would be nice.
-
- Well, hope you enjoy!!
