Bug Stomp

Aha! Got it! This one's been bugging me.

I have a keyphrase "how are you" and also "how * are you". If you ask "how are you?", it picks "how * are you" first (because it's longer, I bet), chooses it over "how are you" and then, when it discovers there's no "between word", jumps to xnone! In other words, the exact match seems to be getting confused over the *. Anything to be done about this one prof?

Great, thanks for fixing it. I still wish I could access my keyphrases. If I ever get to them, I promise I'll never start a keyphrase with a non-letter character again.

have you tried to search for another word in your responses....?

There isn't a search feature for the language database.

I figure if I keep complaining loudly enough the Professor will eventually help me.

there is, top of the screen, language centre

Ooh there is! There is! Pretty! I never thought to look there for it

Really? I'll have to go look more closely.

Yes!!! It works! All I have to do is search for one of the responses! Thank you, lunar22!

Good eye, Crab. It's fixed now.

Is it hard to see the search box??

No, it isn't hard to see the search box, but there are a lot of features in that area... possibly you could simplify it a little if you moved the storytelling/memory/gossip prefs over to the bots profile or maybe next to the bots names in the "my bots" page.

HEY YOU GUYS!!! I'm trying OmniWeb (for Mac OS X) on a regular basis now and it's way cool! I can't believe how fast the login window and home page loaded for the forge and... it's even underlining my spelling mistakes as I type this message!

Lately I've been trying iCab and Opera a lot too - they're both available for PC and work pretty good on the forge (in my experience). Is Exploder as slow on a PC as a Mac on this site? I mean, usually it's pretty fast, but something about the JavaScript on this site really makes it hang on Macs... Just wondering.

I feel it's good to mention alternative web browsers, otherwise we'll all get sucked into Explorer hell just because Netscape's slowly dying...
