Now I had a similar case that the browser froze when showing 24h of data. Tuned out that 80k points are a bit much. I changed the code so that it starts
binning when showing 8h or more. This is not a perfect solution. The code should check at which interval data is written, then
automatically start binning when approaching 4000 points or more. That would however require more complicated code, so I leave it as it is right now. Feedback |

Hi,
unfortunately I don't have a documentation link to the feature, I just know that it works on my machine ;-) The general idea is that you place a custom |

Hi All,
I just did a fresh download of midas (revision 3184) onto a newly setup FC5 box. Compilation bombs. Printout of compiler output as follows:

Hi All,
I switched to Sci. Linux 4.3, from FC5, and was able to get the guts of MIDAS to compile without any difficulties. Now, I have followed the "Quick Start" |

[quote="Stefan Ritt"][quote="Shawn Bishop"]Anyone have an idea what's going on here?[/quote]
The Makefile contained the outdated target [B]fal[/B], which is a combined frontend/analyzer/logger. You don't need that, so I removed it from the makefile. |

Hi, I'm having some trouble getting ss_thread_kill() to work properly. It seems
to kill the entire program instead
of just the thread. Here is a test program to show the error:

Hi Art,
you can make the process somewhat less painful by using the Plink (from PuTTY) to run mhist as a remote command, piping the output to a local file:

I have a possibly simple feature request for the MIDAS sequencer. It would be
helpful to be able to save an ODB key's value to a variable, for later use, and
would be the analogue of the ODBSET command. I had in mind an application where
