DownLoad JanusNode 1.09 [Stuffed & Binhexed: ~2100K]
Version history
- Version 1.09, June 8, 2000: New coordinates: JanusNode.com is now on-line.
- Version 1.08, May 14, 2000: Fixed a bug which caused 'Random Sentences' to ignore its limit.
- Improved some of the early RJ Project files. They will need more work.
- Version 1.07, May 10, 2000: Fixed a bug which caused over-enthusiastic capitalization of pronouns.
- Made many additions to the Brain Food and Exceptions files
- Added a new song to the Robot Johnson Project and a new haiku rule set.
- Version 1.06, March 16, 2000: Added user-configurability to the conjugation and pluralization functions, having been defeated by the incredible irregularity of the English language in my quest to deal with all possible exceptions automatically.
- Enhanced the 'backspace' function.
- Added a new song to the Robot Johnson Project.
- Version 1.05, March 13, 2000: Fixed the automatic text-filer so that it only works if the current field is the JanusNode window. An anachronistic window name was making it hard to edit TextDNA and BrainFood files, since the JanusNode kept asking to file every selection.
- Fixed the file-save command so that it would remember the name of the current file.
- Fixed a bug which killed the 'click me to return' function on the Help field if you clicked on the Help button when the help field was already visible.
- Make a few more improvements to the 'ing' and 'ed' functions.
- Added a few new rules, and a new song to the Robot Johnson Project.
- Version 1.04, March 1, 2000: Fixed a bug in the way the JanusNode manages its windows if you click on the Janus icon when a window other than the JanusNode output window is visible. This method of activating the Node is now functional, as it was always intended to be.
- Fixed a misleading sentence in the documentation which implied that the GetRhyme function works differentl;y than it actually does. (The function itself was fine.)
- Added a new song to the Robot Johnson Project.
- Version 1.03. February 24, 2000: A small bug in the 'Write TextDNA' function caused it to call 'DemonXXX' instead of 'TextDemonXXX', which would not work. The function has been re-written. It now makes consistent global function calls instead of merely replacing the same word with a random word from the same field.
- Added 'ed' as a key word to make automatic past tenses of verbs, since the automatic TextDNA-writer now uses that functionality.
- Fixed a minor bug which would cause the help file to report an error under obscure circumstances that I won't detail here.
Version 1.02, February 20, 2000: Removed two (now unnecessary) dialog boxes referring to McPoet.
Version 1.01, February 15, 2000: Fixes the mis-mapped command-key menu equivalents in v1.0
