New optional param, flLastSeparator, default true. If false, we don't include the last separator character. In some cases the days don't represent folders, they are files, so you don't want the separator character at the end. - Dave Winer
Add optional "since" param to get all posts since a certain date-time. Loop over "pages" of results so we aren't limited to 20 at a time. Major upgrade. - Dave Winer
Add param, thumbtext, an img element that displays the thumbnail if there is one, the emtpy string if none. Strip the markup from the description to prevent the redundan display of thumbnails there (Flickr does this). - Dave Winer
Really want to try this. I think there's a conflict with the old Mac FlickrFan tool I tried to install some months ago. Tell me where you grab a fresh build of the whole OPML editor again? Forgot where you moved it. Also thinking about trying to install it in MS LiveMesh. It runs anywhere, right? That could eliminate the need to sync between computers. - Amyloo
Amy, follow the instructions on flickrfan.org - Dave Winer
Yeah, I wanted to reinstall the whole schmeer. But no blogging tool yet, will have to piece together. Will try over the weekend. You've really been in the zone with this. - Amyloo
Amy, I was thinking more along the lines of adding some 'glue' to the OPML Editor rather than installing into the Live Mesh directly. Once we have Mac, XP & Vista all playing nice with file paths in the OPML Editor we can look at how to either add the 'glue' or install it in the Mesh so to speak. - Stephen Edgar
Amy you should be able to just copy dotopml.root into the tools folder and dotopmldata.root into the datafiles sub-folder of the ops folder and do your blogging as you did in previous versions. Or, alternatively, you could just update your current installation -- should accomplish exactly the same thing (that's how I produce the new versions, by updating old ones). - Dave Winer
Amy, can you send me an email with the Windows LiveID you are using for Live Mesh and I will 'share' the OPML Editor Live Mesh folder I just created with you. (stephen@netweb.com.au) - Stephen Edgar
It worked, the LiveMesh part. It's just the new streamlined editor, Flickrfan the only tool to test. Of course the executable won't run in the live desktop, but does work on 2 computers -- one Vista the other XP -- once the folder is synced on both machines. Pretty cool. - Amyloo
Plus, the LM folders seem cordoned off in a way I don't pretend to understand, so that more than one installation of the editor can be present on the same box. The only way I ever was able to accomplish that before was by setting up the second instance under the control of another user of the computer. - Amyloo
Stephen did you ever send that folder invite? Or maybe it slipped into my spam folder or something. - Amyloo
It should be in your inbox Amy, I resent everything again yesterday. At the same time I changed ISP's Monday and some emails are doing weird things for me. - Stephen Edgar
