Greg,
How about getting a few opinions about that before the request
is formalized. To my way of thinking, another color assigned would detract
from the Blank vote and create a mish mash of colors, unless there was a color
key or something on the page. What do others think?

Races highlighted in red are obviously not voted.
Could races under-voted be highlighted with another colour?

the Cast ballot button is still red in these
- it needs to be green doesn't it?

They are small
enough to attach.

Would it be possible for you to post just those four
files on the ftp with a password, so those of us with slow modems can
download and replace them? (In addition to 1.18.8 that
is).

TSText
1.18.8 will be out momentarily. The files changed
are:
RVD_Instructions.rtf
RVD_NoVotesInstructions.rtf
VEF_RecordedText.rtf
VIF_Instructions.rtf
The
changes are to English (1033) only. If the Spanishly inclined
among you could take these and make 1034 equivalents it would be
appreciated.
Ken
thank you can't wait

I'll
try to get it out early next week.

Ken do you anticipate this being
released in the near future - for use in the March CA
primary?

A
heartfelt thank-you goes out to Greg, Cathi, Jane, and Rodney
who all sent in their TSText directories. It looks like
Jane is the person guilty of the improvements I saw in
Los Angeles. Well done everyone.
We
will incorporate the best of these into the next TSText
release. Everyone should review these when they come out
and follow up with their own suggestions and
requirements. We need to settle into a standard set that
works for all but very exceptional cases.
Ken
You have also reminded me of something I was meaning
to post after I got back from Los Angeles in December
but completely forgot. Someone created a really nice
TXTest set that I saw during my demo there with Chen.
It had for example the Next text in reverse
green, better font sizes, etc. Whoever did it did a
really great job. I have my theories as to whom, but
won't tip my hat for fear of being incorrect. At any
rate, would that individual please raise his or her hand,
and then send me a zip of the directory. Why have
you keep it to yourself? We will incorporate it into
the next release.
Yes, a version
number in the TSText file is a good suggestion and is in the
works. I hope that in another couple of iterations of
VIBS TSText will calm down again and this problem will solve
itself somewhat. The AVOS AccuBasic reports went
through the same thing back in the day.
Ken
Could we put some form of version ID
onto the TSText stuff, (a readme or something) so we can
keep track of items like the instruction pages etc.
Also, if folks make up a new page that is nice, perhaps
you could send it to support so that we could all look at
it and use it as appropriate.
