Good AmigaGuide viewer for Windows? YES, finally.

[PeterK]

Thank you.

I've changed my background color settings now:

.button2
{
background: #dddddd;
.....

body
{
background: #eeeeee;
}

The one I was reading was for Zeus BBS. I will review again on my A3K and then with the 1.31 version on the Win7 box just to be sure.

The bugs I reported have been fixed for V1.31, many thanks.

It should be possible to change the destination drawer for the generated HTML output files, for example setting it to %TEMP%\AGWViewer.

Even better would be an option to turn HTML generation off entirely, otherwise you have to delete lots of files every time after using it.

Found a problem of AGWViewer of processing some links in ReqAttack.guide in the chapter "Configuration". The links for the buttons there seem to be related to a number that represents the text line offset. For example:

  @{" How does it work?            " LINK "Configuration" 22} NEW
  @{" Children age                 " LINK "Configuration" 51}

So, LINK "Configuration" 22 points to line 22 below @NODE "Configuration" "Configuration"
@TOC "Main"

AGWViewer can't find the targets of such sort of links.

Hi PeterK,

Thanks for that info and sample guide, I didn't know one could specify line numbers too. That require some thoughts how to solve :-)

[StoneOakvalley]

At least the temporary file creation is working now - v1.32:

For the line numbers support, v1.33 has been coded and seems to be working with that function. Will have to check with a bunch of other guides that nothing else breaks. If not, its released within a few days.

What happened to the standalone version?

Also noticed that the search function doesn't work reliably, it often misses occurrences.

The standalone version is basically just the exe file, you can move that around where you please. I didn't care to bother with it for now, since there was so many versions made.

I'll look into the search, I noticed too it was kinda "off" right now.

For now: Check out the version with linenumbers anchor html linked :-)

Thank you !!
It seems to work as expected now, only "Retrace" doesn't jump back to the previous location in all cases yet. Sometimes it jumps two steps back at once.

The retrace would probably get messed up since there are regular HTML anchors involved with a javascript:history.go(-1) triggered on my own retrace button (or possibly, haven't checked, that my code takes over somewhere).

It might just be possible to do a filter in my code there and try to fix it, so it appears "normal" and how we would expect the retrace to function.

Just checked out the latest version, have only tried it with the guide for ButtonMenu v1.23, but it worked flawlessly for that, top work.

[hooverphonique]

Just checked V1.33, it seems to have a compatibility problem in that node names containing spaces causes a node not found error..

[Doc Mindie]

Any plans on getting the best thing since sliced bread (aka, AmigaGuide) viewable on OSX?

AGWviewer has been updated to 1.35 last year (1.1 crashed for me):

Stone Oakvalley's Text Database Searcher got an update aswell. version 2.9

while looking through it, i found c-zar adf:
huge_bbs_collection\up_yours_archive\image57\c-zar.adf

i cannot find the "up_yours_archive" collection :/

Mr. Oakvalley, can you upload this disk to the zone, please?

Thanks for the tip. Installed the AGViewer, works like a charm.

@StoneOakvalley

It would be nice to support links to external guide(s).

[StoneOakvalley]

@kamelito

Indeed, I miss that myself. I'll put it on my todo list :-)
