Well....
It works!!
I even installed it while recooping from "twilight sleep" from my trip to the hospital... (which turned out fine)
I extracted the FPDB from the tar.gz file and just dropped it on top of my existing directory of the same name. I had already made a backup of the config file... in fact I backed it all up just in case.
The only problem was the HUD_config file which someone typed with no carriage returns, paragraphs or much, if any spacing...
Really hard to read.
Anyhow, changed all passwords, fonts and other displayed stats to my own preferences. Recreated the database. Boy, is the Player's Stats page different, that took some looking. Only thing I didn't care for was the bulk importer keeps defaulting to FullTilt, where I don't play anymore.
Sat in a game (Won $4) and the HUD came up and worked, after I figured out some of the new settings you coders slipped in. Eventually, it all worked as good, no, much better than before. GREAT job all. And thanks. At least the first test on a Vista works.
----- Now the minor aches and pains....
When I right clicked on the HUD "right click" comment bar and took a while to realize what all the new setups were, I could not exit that screen until I picked something. That was annoying since I was involved in hands and it stole the action totally. I had to quickly just pick something (usually "save hud") just so I could act on a hand. That shouldn't be...
A question I had.. if I am not playing at sites, can I just eliminate them from the config file to clean it up, and have less selections in the importing screen, and other stats screens that keep popping up FullTilt, and/or other sites?
Would be nice to have the "abbreviations" part complete for editing the config file for display changes.
No other real serious complaints... it opened, it recreated the database, the hud showed up.... stats seemed close enough, too tired to check the math. Very good experience for a first shot at version 0.12 or whatever it is called now. Need to make a few personal tweaks tomorrow... yawn... But all in all, glad to see it works so well.
I did seem to get quite a few error files while bulk importing, around 111 files, I think it said, out of about 350 files, have no idea why, don't care at nearly 2am right now...

p.s. Oh, graphs didn't work, but that might have something to do with the fact I never installed the graphing program
, can't even remember what/where it is....
