I've got VC++ 5.0, but I'm in a time crunch. I'll give it a go shortly
if no one else does. The next 17 days are an uphill slide to
graduation.

REM, if you do work on this, maybe this will help a small bit...

I compiled the code with VC++6 and spent a short time looking at it. I
did find where the RED color is being set for the labels. The author
uses the same color for the labels as he uses for the markers. Line 266
of bmp.cpp has the code in question.

while (minfo->label != NULL)
{
mark_location(dc, minfo, RGB(255, 0, 0), 2);
minfo += 1;
}

I did play with changing the colors a bit, but I did not find a value
that I liked. I would be willing to work on this myself, but I have a
full-time job that eats into most of my time.

After a few more entries trickling in
the acf( location , name ) count
is now up to 92 ....

Maybe it will reach 100 yet ....

I thought we had more Danes and Deutschers ....

That's it. RGB(255,0,0) is red. RGB(0,0,255) should be blue..

that I liked. I would be willing to work on this myself, but I have a

It should be a matter of storing in the acf locations into another
linked list and calling the same function with different color values.

Congratulations!

"uphill slide" ???

Aw man, I have group projects and presentations in each class,research
papers due, and exams packing the remaining time. Then, the real world
is going to tap me on he shoulder I'm afraid. <G>

I'm actually going to finish the office in progress and relax for
awhile afterwards.

Rod is a lie:


Thank you!

have you...or anyone following this thread, seen the freeware "World
Time"? at http://www.pawprint.net/wt/ ? It has, in addition to
configurable clocks, a world map with longitude & latitude and
distances built in...move the cursor and read the info!..Lots more,
too..perhaps this would help the project in some way.... (The program
has been discussed before, but maybe not recently)

That sounds like an uphill *slog*.

When's graduation day - Dec. 15?

We should have a party. Karen's Merlot was very tasty, I'll bring a few
bottles of that if I can find a source. Omar *might" bring empanadas. .

My last exam is the 16th. I had thought the 15th, but I had not marked
one on the calendar. That's the day I'm ready for.

I've only recently tried Merlot. Very nice! I'll raise a glass to you
all after the last exam.

For a very nice dessert wine may I recommend, that one aquire a
nice late harvest white from the Bordeaux region of France.
There are three names I can only recall Semillion & Barsec, now.
I've not tasted better.

It won't compile in VC++ 5.0. I emailed the author and he suggested it
was too outdated to work right with 6.0 code. I did invite him to read
the thread.

Thanks to both of you for giving it a look.

the thread.

I hope he picks up that there are a number of us interested in this neat
little app, and ideally that he gets motivated to hone it a bit more.
Besides the font color as a user option, I'd really like to see the cities
data stored in external file. I have the feel that it'd be something good
for the XML format. I notice an increasing number of apps using that,
although I don't know how much is involved for a programmer to make such
a change.

I haven't tried the program and don't know what all it stores in the
registry, but for simple cities data, like per city latitude and
longitude, maybe also timezone, a simple text file would do nicely.
Calendar Magic has 7200 entries in its cities.dat.
I don't like to think of 7200 registry entries for that!

Agree. Basic principle, the registry should not be the repository
for user data files...

Sietse, while you're by this thread, how about hailing an official
count-in for the Netherlands? So far, we've got only a couple .NL'ers
to dot out our ACF map.

Current count is now at 98, trying to reach 100
