I need help understanding this flossmanual English, please. . .

In http://en.flossmanuals.net/thunderbird/composing-messages/ , under "Signature Delimiter", the following text appears:
"Signature Delimiter
"When placing a signature in a text based email, a default "-- " (dash, dash, space) is inserted to separate text. To switch it off for all identities of your accounts, you can access your Configuration Console and change mail.identity.default.suppress_signature_separator to "true"."
It then states:
"It's important to note that removing the signature makes it a part of the message you compose. "
What does this mean? Is it referring to removing the signature separator? Or is it a completely new topic -- ie, referring to removing a signature? And if it means removing a signature, how is a removed signature "part of the message"??
The article then states:
"When replying to messages where the signature is placed below your reply, but above the quote, signatures won't be removed if you choose to change identities."
This seems (to me) to suddenly introduce even more new issues.
I deeply appreciate that the flossmanual was the result of dedicated, hard work on the part of intelligent volunteers -- I just sometimes have trouble interpreting the language used. I'm sure it all makes perfectly clear sense to someone who's already part of the flossmanual team, but - alas - I'm not even a coder, let alone developer. . .
Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the very speedy reply, Zenos -- I appreciate it!
</blockquote>
You're welcome.
<blockquote>
The separator was/is used by some software as a way of knowing what isn't ''essential'' to the message, so that it can discard it from subsequent threads -- yes?
</blockquote>
Yes
<blockquote>
By eliminating the separator, my signature is considered to be part of the text of the email - yes? Well, I guess it stands to reason that I would ''want'' my signature to be included in any email in which I'd send it, no?
</blockquote>
That is certainly what most people actually do these days.
<blockquote>
So, the bottom line, for me, would be: If I want to send a signature (mine will be an image only), and don't want to see those "--" separator indicators, I should ask TB to remove the signature delimiter -- yes?
</blockquote>
Yes.
It does seem, to me, polite to have two signatures, at least in business.
One big one giving your contact details to use in a new message, and something more discreet for continuing conversations thereafter. Some short-sighted organizations (including my own employers) come out with a big garish monstrosity that is intended to be used on ''every'' business message.

  • New to Java and need help with this program..please!

    I'd really appreciate any helpful comments about this program assignment that I have to turn in a week from Friday. I'm taking a class one night a week and completely new to Java. I'd ask my professor for help, but we can't call him during the week and he never answers e-mails. He didn't tell us how to call from other classes yet, and I just can't get the darn thing to do what I want it to do!
    The assignment requirements are:
    1. Change a card game application that draws two cards
    and the higher card wins, to a Blackjack application
    2. Include a new class called Hand
    3. The Hand class should record the number of draws
    4. The application should prompt for a number of draws
    5. The game is played against the Dealer
    6. The dealer always draws a card if the dealer's hand total is <= 17
    7. Prompt the player after each hand if he wants to quit
    8. Display the total games won by the dealer and total and the total games wond by the player after each hand
    9. Display all of the dealer's and player's cards at the
    end of each hand
    10. Player has the option of drawing an additional card after the first two cards
    11. The Ace can have a value of 11 or 1
    (Even though it's not called for in the requirements, I would like to be able to let the Ace have a value of 1 or an 11)
    The following is my code with some comments about a few things that are driving me nuts:

    Thank you so much for offering to help me with this Jamie! When I tried to call change value using:
    Card dealer = (d.changeValue());
    I get an error message saying:
    Incompatible types found: int
    required: Card
    I had my weekly class last night and the professor cleared up a few things for me, but I've not had time to make all of the necessary changes. I did find out how toString worked, so that's one question out of the way, and he gave us a lot of information for adding another class to generate random numbers.
    Again, thank you so much. I really want to learn this but I'm feeling so stupid right now. Any help you can give me about the above error message would be appreciated.

  • Another Videora Post- I just need help with this one problem, please!

    I am guessing that the best way to convert your videos to an iPod compatible format is Videora. It works lovely, except for one glitch. I notice that the audio is noticeably off when I play the video. Any solution on how to fix this? I would really appreciate it if anyone helped me out on this
      Windows XP  

    It is on both, I am thinking.. I tried it with a movie avi file, and it always comes out off.

  • Need help understanding this UEFI/GOP business

    Good morning all,
    I think what I'm asking is pretty simple, and hopefully someone here can help me.
    I just built my new system with a MSI Geforce GTX 780 TI Gaming. I have not yet installed Windows 8.
    My question is:
    If I want to install Windows 8 in UEFI mode, do I need to update my graphics card BIOS?
    OR
    Is the UEFI/GOP BIOS only to allow users to make use of the Windows 8 fast boot features?
    I'm hoping the answer is "it's only to allow you to make use of the ultra fast Windows 8 boot mode". Otherwise I'm going to be posting a request including my s/n for a bios update before I begin the Windows installation.
    Thank you!

    Installing in UEFI mode means using Win8 feature otherwise it is still alegacy mode. So yes, GOP is required then.

  • Please I really need help with this video problem.

    Hi!
    Please I need help with this app I am trying to make for an Android cellphone and I've been struggling with this for a couple of months.
    I have a main flash file (video player.fla) that will load external swf files. This is the main screen.When I click the Sets Anteriores button I want to open another swf file called sets.swf.The app is freezing when I click Sets Anteriores button
    Here is the code for this fla file.
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    preloaderBar.visible = false;
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    btHome.enabled = false;
    var filme : String = "";
    carregaFilme("home.swf");
    function carregaFilme(filme : String ) :void
      var reqMovie:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filme);
      loader.load(reqMovie);
      loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.OPEN,comeco);
      loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,progresso);
      loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,completo);
      palco.addChild(loader); 
    function comeco(event:Event):void
              preloaderBar.visible = true;
              preloaderBar.barra.scaleX = 0;
    function progresso(e:ProgressEvent):void
              var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;
              preloaderBar.percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();
              preloaderBar.barra.scaleX =  perc;
    function completo(e:Event):void
              preloaderBar.percent.text = '';
              preloaderBar.visible = false;
    btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onHomeDown);
    btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onHomeUp);
    btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onSetsDown);
    btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onSetsUp);
    btVivo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onVivoDown);
    btVivo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onVivoUp);
    btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onHomeClick);
    btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onSetsClick);
    function onSetsClick(Event : MouseEvent) : void
              if (filme != "sets.swf")
                          filme = "sets.swf";
                          carregaFilme("sets.swf");
    function onHomeClick(Event : MouseEvent) : void
              if (filme != "home.swf")
                          filme = "home.swf";
                          carregaFilme("home.swf");
    function onHomeDown(Event : MouseEvent) : void
              btHome.y += 1;
    function onHomeUp(Event : MouseEvent) : void
              btHome.y -= 1;
    function onSetsDown(Event : MouseEvent) : void

              btVivo.y += 1;
    function onVivoUp(Event : MouseEvent) : void
              btVivo.y -= 1;
    Now this is the sets.fla file:
    Here is the code for sets.fla
    import flash.utils.Timer;
    import flash.events.TimerEvent;
    var video:Video;
    var nc:NetConnection;
    var ns:NetStream;
    var t : Timer = new Timer(1000,0);
    var meta:Object = new Object();
    this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
    function init(e:Event):void{
    video= new Video(320, 240);
    addChild(video);
    video.x = 80;
    video.y = 100;
    nc= new NetConnection();
    nc.connect(null);
    ns = new NetStream(nc);
    ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onStatusEvent);
    ns.bufferTime = 1;
    ns.client = meta;
    video.attachNetStream(ns);
    ns.play("http://www.djchambinho.com/videos/segundaquinta.flv");
    ns.pause();
    t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,timeHandler);
    t.start();
    function onStatusEvent(stat:Object):void
              trace(stat.info.code);
    meta.onMetaData = function(meta:Object)
              trace(meta.duration);
    function timeHandler(event : TimerEvent) : void
      if (ns.bytesLoaded>0&&ns.bytesLoaded == ns.bytesTotal )
                ns.resume();
                t.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,timeHandler);
                t.stop();
    The problem is when I test it on my computer it works but when I upload it to my phone it freezes when I click Sets Anteriores button.
    Please help me with this problem I dont know what else to do.
    thank you

    My first guess is you're simply generating an error. You'll always want to load this on your device in quick debugging over USB so you can see any errors you're generating.
    Outside that, if you plan on accessing anything inside the SWF you should be loading the SWF into the correct context. Relevant sample code:
    var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
    context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
    context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
    var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.[your_domain_here].com/library.swf");
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(urlReq, context);

    If you're doing this on iOS you'll need to stripped SWFs if you plan on using any coding (ABC) inside the files. You mentioned iOS so I won't get into that here, but just incase, here's info on stripping external SWFs:

    Apps downloaded with an Apple ID are forever tied to that Apple ID and will always require it to update.
    The only way around this is to delete the apps that require the other Apple ID and download them again with yours.
    Or simply log out of iTunes & App stores then log in with updated AppleID.

  • I need help understanding how the Apple components integrate to create a system across all my devices?

    I need help understanding how the Apple components connect to create a whole system across all my devices?
    Is there a resource that describes current system and associated functionality?
    For example:
    Buy A, B, C to achieve "X" 
    You will need:
    an internet provider which supports <specs>
    add D to achieve "Y"
    You will need:
    an internet provider which supports <specs>
    add "E" to achieve "Z"
    You will need:
    an internet provider which supports <specs>
    For example, I am looking at the Gen 6 Airport extreme.  For intended performance do I need broadband? if so what are the specs, or will basic internet service suffice?  Do I need the internet provider's modem or does the Airport extreme replace that?  And then I think, if I am doing this, I should also look at Apple TV....What do I need and Why?  Then I look at the New Desk top coming out in the fall, and I think well, if I wait and get this, what does this component do for the system, and what becomes redundant? What does this awesome desktop do for my ability to sit and use a new macbook air when I travel  or sit on the couch in my PJs?
    If there was a place that plainly stated "if you buy the new dektop you can configure a system including only these components and achieve <this result> and by adding <additional components> you will achieve this result.
    I have been to the genius store a few times, but I come out of there more confused unless I have SPECIFIC questions or already know what to buy. 
    A "System Configuration App" would be a really great sales tool--Just saying.

    I have no idea what "fully optimized" means.
    No Apple device will let you watch broadcast TV. The Apple TV is a good option for watching streaming TV from iTunes, NetFlix and Hulu. If you want to watch from other sources, you may need to look at other devices.
    Any Mac computer or iPad will allow you to surf the web.
    What business software?
    Time Capsule is a good option for back ups.
    Update what across all devices?
    For accessing documents from all devices, a service like Dropbox is your best bet.
    I have no idea what "step as far away from an internet provider as possible" means. If you want Internet access, you need an Internet provider.
    Lighting fast speed for what? Processor? The specs are listed for all devices in the Online Store. Internet? We're back to the service provider.
    Technology changes. The only way to keep pace with it beyond a couple of years is to buy new stuff.
    The bottom line is you need to look at the specs for devices availble and at your budget and decide what best meets your needs. If you are unable to do that on your own, there are lot of technology consultants out there who will, for a fee, look at your exact situation, make recommendations and even handle the purchase and set up. Perhaps that would be the best route for you.
    Best of luck.
