I wrote a random access library.  Go to the archives and look for random.e.
 It has binary and ASCII type storage.

If you just want to write and read sequences to and from a file, use get and
print.

Euphoria's built-in print() procedure will write out sequences to files as
well as the screen. The library function get() [included in get.e] will
retrieve sequences from files.

Also, check out the User Contributions and Archives pages at the Euphoria
website. Other Euphoria programmers (myself included) have written various
routines for saving and restoring sequence data.

Derek,

Jesse Kint submitted an earnest request for help. You responded by
shamelessly promoting your own library, without even mentioning Euphoria's
print() and get() routines! We're here on the list to *help* one another,
not to go around promoting ourselves!

Your conduct has recently been somewhat less than admirable. I trust this
trend will not continue.


Be seeing you?

6. Re: saving and reading sequences from files

NO, wait a minute....  I did not shamelessly promote my library.  In fact,
I meant to send it personally to him but accidentally replied to the list.
I'm not looking for any credit or anything.  Yeah you may try to kick me
while I"m down (since I"m already pretty unpopular for sending the all
advantage message).
  I think you interpret this as competition between the two of us.  Don't be
ridiculus.  Now, what you just wrote was shameless.  I just suggested my own
library because one it's easy and two because if there was anything he didn't
understand he could ask me a question about it.
  Gee, would you consider that spam too?

This statement reveals a lot more about your own mind-set than it does mine.

  Explain what that means.  C'mon.  You attacked me!  I recommended my
library b/c I can easily help him if he had questions (I wrote it).  Also it
is more advanced than print and get, and I'm under the impression he needs to
store more than one sequence to the file.  That's why I wrote mine in the
first place.  Why not use it?  I DON"T CARE ABOUT GETTING CREDIT, I WAS JUST
TRYING TO HELP SOMEONE.  I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW I CAN GET ATTACKED FOR
HELPING A GUY OUT.  Therefore, it seems to me you're trying to make me look
bad.  Which will cause me to lose my credibility.  Go ahead, if you write
something better, we've made progress.  That's what we're trying to do,
right?  Make progress?  Or are we trying to cut each other down?

It means, "Please do not project your paranoia onto me. Thank you."

How can my promotion of Euphoria's get() and print() be viewed as
"competition" with you?!

10. Re: saving and reading sequences from files

I have to say that this is mainly Gabriel and Derek's argument, but I feel I
need to say something on Derek's behalf.  The reason each of us writes a
library is for two reasons
1) To make part of a program we are writing easier.
2) To make a certain tedious part of programming less tedious for others.

By suggesting his own library, Derek was only trying to help.  What has he
got to gain?  Money..........no, his library is freeware.  Fame........no,
there is no fame on the listserv.  Respect...........again I say no,
everybody has equal respect on the listserv.  I personally respect someone
who just writes a question or two every once in a while as much as I respect
pillars of the Eu community like David Cuny or David Gay.  You're suggestion
of the get() print() routines are perfectly okay, but your behavior of
demonizing Derek is uncalled for.  Please stop the childish banter and lets
stick to the subject at hand, the beautiful language called Euphoria.

oh... yes... because It's a bit sad that half of the messages in my mailbox was
about a kind of war between 2 guys,,,

That's not the way it came across. The original help request was, and I
quote, "does any one have a program / procedure/function to save/ read a
sequence to a file?" This is not a person asking for specialized routines --
this is someone requesting general sequence file I/O. Derek's response was
to immediately point to his own library -- not even mentioning the fact that
Euphoria comes standard with print() and get(), which is most likely what
this person wanted to know in the first place.

Had Derek not submitted his self-promoting SPAM to the list earlier, I might
not have reacted the way I did, and I am certainly to blame for
inadvertently starting this mess. However, it is Derek's continuing
reactions -- inflammatory, insulting and immature -- which have lowered this
"argument" to the lowest of the low. I should probably have just ignored his
posts, but I had no idea he would react the way he did.


>You're suggestion of the get() print() routines are perfectly
>okay, but your behavior of demonizing Derek is uncalled for.

?!! I reprimanded Derek for not mentioning Euphoria's get() or print()
routines. He responded by accusing me of being selfish, greedy, immature,
jealous of his library, and participating in file I/O conspiracies with Ralf
Nieuwenhuijsen. You'll forgive me if I get the impression that Derek was the
one doing the demonizing.

13. Re: saving and reading sequences from files

Gabriel, I believe you were a little too harsh here. So he promoted his
library. Big deal. His library IS a resource for saving/retrieving
sequences... just what the guy asked for.

Somebody else mentioned the get() and print() routines (you,  I think), so
all bases were covered.

14. Re: saving and reading sequences from files

Personally i just asked one simple question and actually got it answered on
icq before the listserv messages even got to my computer. This is a good
example of how some people can take simple questions on this list SO far out
of wack. Does a simple question like mine really need all of those replies
that have nothing to do with the actual question. So can we PLEASE put this
thing to rest?
