In my favorites list (BNO last Day and The BNO Community) the little blue Microsoft e Logos that precedes the wording on every other favorite, is preceded by a red BNO logo on a white background and blue corners top right and bottom left. The BNO is diagonal running from the top left to the bottom right. I tried to copy and past it, but it would not paste into this message. Please do not tell me it has always been this way and I never noticed it before. Richard PS I just emailed it to you. | ||

You have discovered our "favicons"! They are little graphical elements that appear on Internet Explorer's "Address" bar, if you add the page to your "Favorites" list and in Netscape if you visit the page and/or "Bookmark" the page, it appears on the "Location" bar. Another very neat thing: from a page that has the little favicon showing on the "Address"/"Location" bar, click your mouse pointer on the favicon, hold down the button and drag it to your desktop. Now, close your browser, then click the favicon on your desktop. It launches your browser and sends you directly to that page. The webmaster directs your browser to do this by placing a line of "code" on a web page which you don't see (unless you view the source page). Your browser seeks a favicon from the page you're on and if it's not there, it searches for it on the root page of the web site (home page) and if it isn't there, it sends the default favicon to your address bar - in your case, the little blue "e". I've had favicons on just about every page of BNO for a couple of years. Thanks for asking! Ian www.busnut.com | ||

It's actually a "pipe", commonly used to redirect input/output from a command line, typically used most often in Linux/Unix, but sometimes used (by the really talented amongst us) in the DOS window in Windows, OR... For the truly gifted, in a true flavor of DOS such as 6.22.... But few of those types exist any longer. So, it'd be "pipe-at-n"... :p Cheers! -Mac | ||

Yeah, yes you are right. GEESH, I used to program with IBM basic and the pipes were an interesting part of it. See how Windows takes you away from all the drugery - lol Actually, it was quite fun, I sort of miss it. IBM basic could do a lot of fun things. We had converted a program over from APPLE basic to IBM basic, hmmmmm THAT WAS FUN! The formulas are just about the same but the sound, enter and something else are PEEKS and POKES, lol And ya know what, Got it to run great too. Thats ok PIPE-AT-N, You still run a great board. lol cd | ||

"It's actually a "pipe", ... But few of those types exist any longer. " Not to burst your bubble, but this ASCII character has been around on keyboards since well before Unix came along and usurped it for the "pipe" function. Yes, many people call it a "pipe" character, but, technically, it is a "Vertical Bar," ASCII 124(decimal). -Sean (one of those "types") | ||

It's really sad. One of my kids graduated several years ago with degrees in Computer Science and Business, and he knows nothing of Unix or DOS. It's amazing what still I can do with dead horses. Chuck Newman Oroville, CA |
