Just wanted to share an application I created for Chip's Color Web Log today (with some direct help from Chip to find a simple oversight when configuring mu TCP/IP Server...BONEHEAD ALERT: make sure you enter 0.0.0.0 in the address field for the server)
Anyway...here's the app:
The client wanted a way to delete a song playing on her AudioRequest Server by pressing a button on her TPS-3100. After assessing the feasibility of doing this with good confirmation from the ARQ, I decided there was *NOT* a good way to do this.
Enter the CWL.
What I ended up doing was doing a simple makestring of SONG+~by~+ARTIST+~from~+ALBUM and landing that on a ABUF. (The simpl+ logic creates the string based on on a CHANGE of song$)
When the user presses(actually on the out*) the "Mark This Song For Deletion" button, it opens the ABUF and passes the string to the CWL to create an entry.
There is also a "Clear Log" button on the TP.
She then sits down when convenient, pulls up the CWL, and deletes those unwanted songs from the ARQ server at her Mac.
That's it.
Nothing crazy...but I thought it was a useful app.
