The AI Engine

Oh what? You don't enjoy the unique sound you make when that happens? I really dont hear myself making that part-gurgle- part-roar-part-whimper noise enough now that I do most of my editing offline

lol- that is a pain when it happens.

offline editing is evil.. i don't trust it ... [or my ability to make all the nesscary changes]

Offline editing is great. Importing is evil. lol

Importing: as I said I dont hear that sound 'enough' as opposed to 'at all'- importing is when I make it. EX: after trying to import 8-10 times you may hear me yelling " [insert noise] NEEDS A RESPONSE!!!??? IT IS A RESPONSE!!! @#^$$@%$%@#$@@!!!" if you live within two blocks any direction of my house.

I gave up on exporting and importing--I can never keep the formatting. But thanks to Sonora, I've had to rewatch the Laybrinth and add that sequence to all of my bots.

i offer $0.00001 (rounded down) to anyone who can program a cool offline editor with source code included

Does anyone know offhand if you can do this: (-|) for words that can be hyphenated or not?

I think you'd have more success using the two diferent versions of the word. But check to make sure the spelling engine doesn't just respell the hyphenated version.

thanks- the reason I ask is that I bump up against that 150 character limit a lot trying to account for common mispellings (which I know 'alot' about)

Going back a bit, I always make that unique noise, so eloquently described by Rev, when I import using expert mode and I get a seek error. "Seek (*) has no rank" - yes, but the seek from which bloody keyphrase? I have lots of (*) seeks! So I either have to hunt through Oz's loooooong language centre file or load the whole thing in normal mode. Grr.

AND I get to sit and watch all my carefully-programmed AIscript disappear for some unknown reason. Offline editing - you can't live with it and you can't live without it.
