<Nob> That's why it's such a great idea, Zeb.

Yes. Next full version, like 1.1. After I fix the bugs of this one. I have grand plans for it too, it should be better than any other parser you've seen yet.

Way cool![]()
Perhaps when you finally implement the parser you can make the output customizeable, like font type and colors for different chat text like whisper and stuff. Some of the parsers I found dont even work like their descriptions say they do

- Follow up for the above suggestions, is a timer that plays a WAV file letting you know you've been playing for x amount of time, and that you should really consider eating, sleeping, spend time with your spouse, etc...

What about.. toolset stuff? It would be nice to have, maybe in another window/tab to not make the list too long for non-toolset freaks, the following things:
-nwtoolset.exe
-launch module from modules directory in nwtoolset.exe
-open http://www.nwnlexicon.com in default webbrowser
-and.. if it's possible.. run a single player moduleThat would be neat. BTW, if anyone knows how to make shortcuts to single player modules like there are to Avlis, please tell me!
Would be nice to be able to add shortcuts to files on my computer myself, I can add things like the Grimoire, DnD Books, Psionics Guide, Avlis Map, Player Guide, etc.

apandapion wrote:Run and parse the results of the netstat command. (easier) Netstat sits there and spits out data, so run it once and pipe the data into your process. Split out the ip and action, compare the ips to a known list, and if the ip is one you're interested in, note the action and if it determines a new connection or a closing connection. (This will probably involve having at least one thread, which may be something you don't want to mess with. I'd poll for real interest before you start.)
epiktetus wrote:Thank you, thank you, thank you. That's brilliant. I've done stuff like this before, but I didn't even think about netstat. Not only that, but I'm gonna one-up you on this one. There's an app called TCPView made by sysinternals.com. They actually have the source for how they made it. It's much simpler than the Ethreal source, and much closer to the language that I use.
I never would have thought of it without this suggestion... thanks again!
