DIFF BETWEEN SCRIPTS N SMARTFORMS
SAPscript technology is based on a mainframe product from the 1980s, while Smart Forms have only been around since (roughly) 2001. With that sort of time gap, there are bound to be significant differences between the two tools. Client dependence is a fundamental one. Although SAPscript has had some incremental improvements over time, its forms have always been -- under the hood -- relatively ...
1. script is client dependent one while smartform is client independent.
2. In scripts we have to write print program while in smart forms it is not necessary.
3. In scripts we can print background logo while in smartforms we cant print background logo
4. In scripts we have 99 main windows while in smartforms we have only 1 main window.
5. In scripts we should write paragraph format otherwise we cant execute program while in smartforms no need to create paragraph formats .
6. In scripts we can print the text in only two character formats.
while in smartforms we can do with more.
7. In scripts we dont have line types while in smartforms we have linetypes.

9) using smart forms we can design web forms but bot possible with script.
10) we can maintain background graphics in smartform wher as in script not
possible.
11) in smart form we use transaction codes SMARTFORM for designing FORM

Convert Illustrator script from cs3 to CS5

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to illustrator scripting I did some simple InDesign script before but this the first time I am ask to create script for Illustrator.
We have an old script that will create a report for the properties (e.i.: fonts, linkedImages, strokeWeights, dashes, strokeColors, etc.) of illustrator file. The script is working in CS2 and CS3 but since most of production people are now using CS5 and CS6 they ask if we could migrate this script to CS5. The script is using hashtable.jsx to get those properties. Does the CS5 script still need hashstable file or I have to create the script from scratch with out using the hashtable script?
Any suggestion or information on how I could convert the script to higher version is mostly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
--elmer

I can't see #include in the script the only thing hashtable is called by this function. According to what I've read about the hashtable.jsx since it is in the startup script folder illustrator will autoload this script upon launching of the application.
function TechArtProperties(parent) {
this.width = 0;
this.height = 0;
this.colorMode = DocumentColorSpace;
this.fonts = new Hashtable();
this.embeddedImages = new Hashtable();
this.linkedImages = new Hashtable();
this.lockedObjects = 0;
this.hiddenObjects = 0;
this.strokeWeights = new Hashtable();
this.dashes = new Hashtable();
this.strokeColors = new Hashtable();
this.fillColors = new Hashtable();
this.effects = new Hashtable();
this.brushes = new Hashtable();
this.transparencies = new Hashtable();
this.gradients = new Hashtable();
this.layers = new Hashtable();
this.parent = parent;
this.total =0;
this.artName = "";

So I created a button on my home page, and it is linked to this XML file. Everything works great except it only shows the item that I coded in...I want it to show ALL items.
Can I do this without having to input each item individually?
Is this how I should do it anyways with a button linking to this xml file?
I really want to have like 3-5 of the posts to auto update on my home page but I dont know how to embed the RSS into my HTML home page file.
Also, the way I have it coded, will it automatically update the new posts?
or do I have to wait for the new post and input the item into the xml file?
I am very new to the RSS feed so please help.
Thanks,
cp

How do i create a single sign on environment from scratch?

setting up a single mac mini 10.6.6 server in a small law firm and want to create a sso environment from scratch. i have currently got everything working fine as an open directory master, but every reference to sso that i can find, talks about joining an existing sso environment, or joining ad, creating a triangle, but never a stand alone od master to create the sso. am i missing something, or is it not possible or practical to do in such a small office with just a few users?
thanks for any help understanding this.

i appreciate your input Rikakiah, although i am glad i don't have to pronounce your alias out loud
anyway, that's starting to sound like something i might want to try, because so much of what i want to do is not really working the way i'm doing it. it had crossed my mind, but wasn't sure i was going to avoid problems by using network home folders instead of mobile accounts. at this point, i have only one of the four workstations bound to the server, which was purchased as a mac mini snow leopard server with the dual internal drives, and was set up as a mirrored raid with the 2 internal 500 gig drives.
i am seeing what seems to me like some odd behavior with network accounts working with the log in screen (all the users show up in the log in screen properly as network accounts, but only one account, the one that matches exactly the local account user name and password and allows log in) and auto mounting group shares are not seeming to work at all. what seems odd, is that management of the local account seems to be working great, and has merged management with the local account. the user still has all their existing documents and settings, but i can see that the things like the control panels i locked them out of are grayed out. so to be try to be clear here, i have 4 network accounts set up in wgm, and on the log in screen, i see 3 network accounts with the typical network user icon, and what looks like the original account with the original icon. i can only log in using that account, but when i get in there, it's managed ok. i expected to see the original local account and 4 network accounts, but evidently using the same user name on the server as the local account caused this. when i try to log in with one of the other network accounts, the login screen shakes it head no.
for the record, from another post talking about network log in issues, on the local system, setting System Preferences>Accounts>Login Options>Allow network users to log in at login window>Options>Only these network users: can mess this up, but my settings there are fine, since i had never messed with that. it says "allow all network users" or something like that.
here's what i am trying to get to: auto mounting group shares and single sign on for afp group folders and ichat, and as you said to allow the users to move around from workstation to workstation as needed. as you know, there's a myriad of settings to make this all happen. i don't see how anyone can help me fix the 2 things that aren't working, unless i give a long winded explanation of what my settings in workgroup manager and server admin are, so here goes…
i have dns and open directory running fine, a static map of ip addresses so that i can do authenticated directory binding, which seems great so far. in wgm, i have under preferences / computer list the one computer i have bound - computername$ and under window checked always, heading - directory status, list of users, show local users, network users, computer administrators, and other. under options checked always, enable fast user switching, computer administrators may refresh or disable management, and start screen saver after 5 minutes. under access checked always, clicked the gear button once which caused network users - allow - * to appear in the access control list, local only users may log in, local only users use available workgroup settings, and combine available workgroup settings. scripts and items have never checked.
then for workgroup folders to auto mount, i have set afp auto mounts for each of my 2 groups, partner admin and support staff in server admin / afp. under accounts / groups / support staff / group folder, the support staff auto mount is selected, and the user i am working with is obviously a member of that group under the members tab. finally, under preferences / groups / support staff / items, always and add group is checked and the support staff volume shows up in the list. authenticate selected share point with user's login name and password is grayed out and not checked, and merge with user's items is grayed out and checked. i'm not sure what i am missing to get auto mounting group folders here. btw, the user can for sure log into the group folder with the same user name password that she logs into the workstation with, if she does so manually under the go / connect to server menu.
oh, and ichat seems to work as expected. she gets sso there! sweet!
if i do end up trying to go for network home folders, (i would like to see auto mounting group folders working first, before i try) i found something that looks like a no-brainer to add to the mix…

How do I stop Apple Script from leaving a Text.txt file with each image downloaded using Photo Downloader in Adobe Photoshop CS4_Bridge???

I use Adobe Photoshop CS4_Bridge _Photo Downloader to import images from CF Cards into my 11" Mac Book Air. I have an issue with the Text files
that seem to accompany each and every image that I do not need. How do I stop Apple Script (which I assume is the culprit in this case) from interferring with this process.

Your iWeb Site is stored not on your iDisk, but on a file named Domain.sites in your ~/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb/ Folder.
If , for whatever reason, you wipe your HD and/or lose this file (Get a new computer, Re-Install your OS, Stolen Laptop, Crashed HD, Etc.) without backing-up your Domain.sites file then you will have to re-build your iWeb sites from scratch again.
Of course you can edit your Published HTML files in a different program such as Dreamweaver or even Text Edit. You just can't edit Published HTML files in iWeb. Not at this time at least.
Use iWebBackup to backup your Domain file to a Blank CD or DVD. Backing up your Domain file to another folder on your computer is not fully backing it up. If your computer gets stolen you still lost the file but if you have your Domain file burned onto a CD you have a backup!
Download iWebBackup Here
You can use iWebExtender to automatically consolidate your files into one folder and delete multiple images.

How to create a bootable OEL5.8 .iso from scratch?

Are there any instructions available about how to create a bootable .iso file, for installing OEL5.8, from scratch?
We need to build a system which is a customised version of OEL5.8; we want to add some extra RPMs and remove others. We have an older build system which does this based on OEL5.5, but the way it has been built makes this hard to upgrade. We'd like to try starting from OEL5.8 again.
One possibility would be to download the initial OEL5.8 .iso; mount this as a loop-back filesystem; adjust some RPMs and config; then re-create an .iso from this file. However, this doesn't allow us to update the kernel very easily. We'd prefer an approach which starts from a set of RPMs (perhaps including modified kernel RPMs) and builds the .iso from scratch.
Many thanks for any pointers.

You cannot simply edit an .iso image file because the iso9660 filesystem is read-only. And even if you create your own iso image from scratch, with a bootable code, any package you add will not be part of the initial installation, unless you recreate the appropriate software repository database and anaconda installer. Sounds like overkill to me for what you are describing.
Why would you want to go through the endeavor to adjust the Oracle Linux distribution DVD for the purpose of creating a customized system? Why not using Kickstart instead, or a simply create a post-installation script to modify the installation to your needs?

Restarting from Scratch

My Macbook pro has been running slower and slower for quite a while. I have just ordered Snow Leopard to upgrade and whilst at it, I figured now would be a good time to completely clean out the computer and start again. I have lots of photos and music etc as well as some documents I need to keep, but otherwise not that much of massive significance. Is there a step by step guide to what I need to do, to do a complete system reset and reinstall? My only problem that I worry about is that I run an old iWork and iLife, which I no longer have the disks for - can i keep these? Thanks for any help?

Because you do not have the discs to reinstall iLife or iWork you cannot erase your drive and start from scratch or you will lose both. So you need to upgrade your system to Snow Leopard which does not erase the drive.
To clean up your existing system see the following:
Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc. Other utilities are also available such as Onyx, Leopard Cache Cleaner, CockTail, and Xupport, for example.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Backuplist
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
iBackup
JaBack
Silver Keeper
MimMac
Retrospect
Super Flexible File Synchronizer
SuperDuper!
Synchronize Pro! X
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
After you do some maintenance your current system should be in decent shape for upgrading. The next thing you need to do is make a backup. I suggest you do that as follows. You will need an external hard drive you can erase that will be used for the backup.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Check the box labeled Erase destination.
5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
You can then boot from the Snow Leopard DVD and follow the onscreen instructions for installing. The installation will be an upgrade that preserves all your files.

I've lost iWeb and thus my web design. I must start from scratch. Should I reinstall iWeb 09 and use that, or is there a better way?

I've lost iWeb and thus my web design. I must start from scratch. Should I reinstall iWeb 09 and use that, or is there a better way?

The file you really need is named Domain.sites2 which resides in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb foldler. It's independent from the iWeb application. If it's not in there do you have a backup of your hard drive from an earlier time?
Resinatll iWeb 3 from the iLife 09 disk or wherever you got it from originally and then try what's described below:
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Mac Batch File from scratch

Anyone have any advice on how to get a batch file running on OSX 10.6.6 from scratch?
Need to open an Ableton Live file using Flash but if someone shows me how to even open a text file using a batch file I should be ok to figure out the rest myself.
Thanks!

Welcome to apple discussions.
The closest thing to a batch file in MacOS would be a bash shell script. That said it sounds like you might be better off using an applescript. Many GUI apps on MacOS are applescriptable.
Here's an applescript example:
http://putnamhill.net/applescript/open-file
Here's a shell script example:
<pre style="border: 1px solid #bbb; padding-left: .75ex; padding-top: .25em; padding-bottom: .25em; margin-top: .5em; margin-bottom: .5em; margin-left: 1ex; max-width: 60ex; overflow: auto; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #333; background: #e6e6e6; line-height: normal">#!/bin/bash
open -a TextEdit ~/Documents/file.txt</pre>
Here's a mixture of both techniques:

Run Scripts from windows command line

Hi, We're creating a test enviroment and we need to "rebuild" our Database (Tablespace) from scratch everytime we run a test.
What we need is to run all scripts files from windows command line, there is any command or application we can use here?
thanks.

Create a scripts.bat file with something like this in it:
@sqlplus -S username/password@connect @scriptname.sql

My first from-scratch pkgbuild - [solved]

Hi Archers!
Yesterday, I set off on writing my own PKGBUILD from scratch for a package I have adopted - monkey. (http daemon) I had used it previously on Damn Small Linux, and it was one of the programs that spurred my initial interest in Linux. Enough history...
So, I copied over the PKGBUILD.proto into my working directory, and set to work. I filled in the fields per the wiki's packaging guidelines, and stared down the build() function. As much as I know, what happens in here was (and kind of is) still a mystery to me. From my reading, it appears that the build() calls fakeroot and runs the ./configure && make && make install while inside a fakeroot, of course allowing me to record changes made to a fake root filesystem, tar them up, and make a package out of it. Now that I've toyed with it for a while, I see thats not the case. (or maybe it is?) I'm noticing that if I place the ./configure --(opts here) && make && make install inside the build() function, I run into permission errors as the make install tries to install the files on the real root filesystem. hmm.
So I go back and check a few other similar PKGBUILDS. I notice that they use either the prefix= env var or INSTALLDIR= env var to control where to drop the files. So, I tried both (make prefix=$pkgdir install, or make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install ) but nether of those changed anything, and after closer inspection of the Makefile, it appears that neither of those vars are referenced. Poo.
So, I changed the ./configure line to read: ./configure --prefix=$pkgdir/usr --confdir=$pkgdir/etc/$pkgname etc etc... for all the configure opts. That seems to at least drop the files in the right place (the pkg/ dir under the folder that the PKGBUILD is in)
But... there are some changes I would need to make to the Makefile, first of which is that the Makefile actually starts the daemon as part of make install. I tried to write a little sed one liner, but it doesn't seem to work, and I'm getting a little confused at this point. (check the attached PKGBUILD) Also, I tried using diff -u and making a patch which also cut out the last few lines of the make install (@echo *** instructions here) which would be better placed in an .install file, but I can work on that later.
Anyway, I would appreciate any help getting this to work the right way (i.e. not having a bunch of install commands in the build() func), but I may end up going that way anyway. Tell me where I'm going wrong.
Thanks,
Gary.

Andrwe - he already posted the Makefile - it doesn't use DESTDIR, prefix, of any other variable that could specify an alternative package root.
wrigarry - here's my version. It installs everything under $pkgdir, doesn't try to run the daemon, and doesn't echo any message - that's as far as I'm going. You can do the rest.
