<0> wikipedia doesn't
<0> its a database description file
<0> can you show the first few bytes of it ?
<0> in hex ?
<1> a ADO UDL file is just an ini file, but I guess you mean another udl file
<2> all that new age mystics
<0> heh
<0> To call "I Ching" new age
<0> is pretty weak.
<2> never had enough money to pay for it
<0> clearly you don't know what it is :)
<2> picture the fact, you ever heard about iching because of newage
<2> 'because it sells well'
<0> no, I heard about it because it's one of the oldest texts in the word
<0> world.
<1> I've red the Art of War tho



<3> I Ching new age? heh.
<0> really?
<3> Funny.
<0> Drk`Angel: thats what I was thinking.
<0> it's older that christianity
<4> more new age :)
<0> :)
<4> anything more advanced than flint and cave paintings is new age :)
<2> suntzu is much more worthwhile
<3> I'm sure the ancient buddhists would get a nice laugh out of that.
<1> The Art of War is a rather short book
<5> it's an ADO udl file
<5> Maybe I'm just doing something stupid
<3> LordLarry: Which translation, though? ;)
<4> anyone see the movie "Art of War" with Wesley Snipes?
<3> I dunno which, if any, is actally accurate.
<1> the chineese ;) No the English
<2> ))))))
<3> Oh, you know chineese?
<3> cool :)
<1> hehe, I wish
<5> I have two UDL files, one I created using a TStringList and then .SaveToFile and one that I created using the MS UDL editor
<4> the story line from that movie is from one chapter in the book
<5> The MS one appears to be 16-bit chars
<5> that is the only difference I can see
<1> Chineese might become popular the comming years with Azia's economics rizing
<5> My file won't load, and the MS one will.
<4> something about winning a battle by sacrificing a spy
<2> oh
<4> LordLarry: I've always like chinese gymnasts ;p
<2> hollywood even able to steal acient strategems
<0> LordLarry: even if you were able to use chinese as it's spoken now.
<0> you couldn't read the art of war.
<5> I don't even know why I bother to come here to discuss Delphi anymore...
<1> probably not
<0> hell
<1> LiFo: I've seen loads of UDL files, none of them not editable by notepad. But they might be Unicode in some cases. You might want to try that
<2> and convent it into comics
<5> LordLarry: They both open in Notepad.... but only one (the one created by MS UDL editor) will open
<0> LordLarry: I wonder if there are any worthy old dutch texts
<5> LordLarry: (in the UDL editor)
<5> LordLarry: I believe ALL UDL files are unicode texts.
<1> ok, then use TWideStringList
<1> or anything else that can read and write unicode
<3> call the i ching new age is like saying java is a microsoft product just cause it runs on windows. :)
<4> nice analogy
<5> LordLarry: TWideStringList isn't in my help file, what version did they add that?
<1> ki9a: hmm, can't think of any
<1> no version. It's in TnT Unicode controls I think
<1> which is freeware
<0> the whole "New Age" word is something stupid anyway
<6> in strcmp(), in delphi lowercase() = lowercase() ?
<0> why call something "New Age" that's reiterating old religions.
<5> LordLarry: Aww hell. Okay. Thanks a lot for your help.
<7> http://www.thateden.co.uk/dirk/
<2> trademark?
<0> The New Age has borrowed from all the world's major religions with influences from Spiritualism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Shamanism, Sufism, Taoism, and Neo-Paganism being especially strong.
<0> (from wikipedia)
<7> An actual implementation of Dirk Gently's I Ching calculator.
<2> cleargreen shamanism?



<1> Aperantly dutch people used to write their texts in latin
<8> we did?
<1> We have some important Dutch inventors who must have written stuff
<3> I just think its funny that french was the offical language of the english court for so long.
<3> (court = royal court)
<0> LordLarry: that ****s.
<1> yuri`: SameText
<0> Drk`Angel: well the english still count weight in rocks.
<8> hur hur
<0> LordLarry: apparantly there is some love letter from 1100
<5> LordLarry: The Unicode library I found is Unicode20.zip from softgems. I can't find anything "TNT"
<0> and some psalms.
<0> dutch has been spoken since like 450 AD
<0> I never expected that.
<0> maybe even before english :)
<9> i actually wonder how dutch is gonna change in the future
<0> more import words
<0> what more ?
<9> no i mean .. now that there are written rules, i guess it kinda bogs down the development of the language
<0> would you actually know the rules ?
<0> given that you have it as first language
<0> I presume.
<0> I *know* the rules
<0> but I don't konw the formal rules
<9> well yeah .. i know the rules too
<0> it's all feeling right and wrong
<0> I wouldn't know the exact rules :)
<9> it's just .. in the past, there weren't really written rules, so over 500y the language evolved into something completely different
<0> old dutch isnt that different
<1> LiFo: then you're google impared ;) http://www.google.com/search?q=tnt%20unicode
<9> if you read that one line everyone gets to learn in highschool, i'd say it differs .. a lot ;)
<0> I didn't
<0> or odn't recall
<0> what was it ?
<9> "Hebban olla vogala nestas hagunnan hinase hic enda thu wat unbidan we nu"
<5> LordLarry: Crap. I was screwing it all up...too many keywords. Thanks man.
<0> ah yes.
<0> a love letter
<0> :)
<9> yeah :)
<9> i wonder, 500y from now .. will the current dutch still be the dutch then
<0> reminds me, the Camping channel now has Patty Brard as a presentator.
<0> I don't like her.
<9> i don't know her .. or the channel
<0> SBS6
<0> dunno if you get it in .be
<9> don't get that here
<5> LordLarry: That worked perfect. Saves the UDL file now using TTntStringList and ADO can load it. Thank you for your help!!
<1> np, glad to be of service
<0> last supernatural is pretty weird
