Graal--->Mac

Goboom · #1 01-10-2003, 10:09 PM

Well since there are plans to port graal to the mac, they will have to change alot of the script commands to be compatable with the mac and the pc. This is because all mac OS's accept for OSX (Jaguar) have not had the right click. This could cause problems with the mouse functions i would figure. Any thoughts?

Yep.

Well it should be ok then

I hate using MAC due to the one button, it feels like a childish fake playing cimuter with a big mouse with one button, as if they feel the users cant handle 2 buttons!

Also Weird News:
Bill Gates is trying to copyright and say that he owns the word ''windows'' as Linux brought out ''Lindows'' so Bill got annoyed and now is trying to own the word Windows so they cant use Lindows! What the point? We cant advertise glass windows without breaking copyrighted laws if that happens!

Well yes it wouldnt go that far, but you get the point, No Bill, its not your word.

Well, now that the Mac has put out OSX (Jaguar) that operating system and the ones after that will have left and right mouse buttons. But I belive that they do not have a scroll button (the mouse wheel). And I have hated Macs up until they released OSX, which has proven to be a very usful, fast, reliable, computer with a sleek gui

Contextual menus (Right-click function) has been available since Mac OS 8.0 or so. That's been quite a few years, by the way. To activate, control+click.

I have a multi-button mouse for my mac laptop...It has left click, right click, and GASP, A SCROLL WHEEL.

Heh, I read on the Apple webpage that they didnt have right click until OSX (Jaguar) and I said I belive they dont have Scroll Wheel Support :P

You can be politically correct and call it Jaguar instead of OSX, you know.

I think mouse wheel is a must, clicking on the buttons in the Q menu for scrolling the item panel is annoying

How would copyrighting the word windows stop Linux from using Lindows?

He's not even quoting news article's properly; just ignore what he said.

If what he posted were true......

You can't have a name that is confusingly similar to another name. Such as if you tried to have a company named Cyberjuoeurs the company Cyberjoueurs could sue you....

You could contact him though forum PM or Email for that, dosen't need to be talked about publicly unless he annnces it. And don't you know, Stefan hardly ever posts on the same forum more than once.:P

The C++/Linux version needs work with the interface, then it should be ready for beta tests I think.

When can we play Graal 3d?

And AlexH, They would use Windows as a copyrighted word and a Trademark, and they can sue them not for only one thing such as takeing the whole name.
