I have regained composure and now have a question. Can the chat be invoked with sbasic and directed to a user or usergroup?

I will make a "chat function" for SBasic that will bring up the chat client.

It already has the ability to direct messages to a specific set of people. But it is limited to those that are already logged into the chat server.

You all seem to enjoy a challenge. Wink

Thanks for making possible, the 'impossible'. Sesame 3 is going to be incredible!

Since you all know none of us on this side of the Forum are ever really speechless, (ok maybe Steve  Wink )

I will just add that even though we have lots to say, there are NO Words that can express how exciting that feature is to us users, and how thankful we are for it.

Considering last week it sounded like additional features to Sesame chat was not on the short list of to-do's right now, It is even more exciting  than normal.

The way you all listen to our needs and desires are unreal. You really make using Sesame a delight. 

Just for the record you are all on my "To be thankful for" list  this Thanksgiving!

Sesame 3 - Breaking News
Development just finished implementing a set of SBasic functions that allow direct access to SQL-based databases like mySQL and Microsoft SQL Server. Those of you who want to interface with other company databases or the databases behind your websites will get a whole lot of use out of these new  commands.

As part of the external SQL functionality, Sesame can now also build a Sesame application, including data, just by pointing it at an existing supported SQL-based database such as mySQL or Microsoft SQL Server.

Let's say I have a SQL database that stores my Drupal-based website. Could Sesame convert that database into a Sesame database?

Yep. It would create a Sesame Application with a database (populated with your data) and a form for each table in the SQL database.

Very cool! I maintain about 4 Drupal sites (and a few with some other flavors), and I can see where this might be handy.

More additions to Sesame 3's SQL tools! You can now create a Sesame Application (with data) from any SELECT query. You can also export the results of any SELECT query to CSV.

Any way to tie into a PERL or Python script?

Over and beyond @RedirectProcess?

You can, of course call a Perl, PHP, Java, VB, Python, C#, compiled programs, etc... from @RedirectProcess and pass the inputs through stdin and capture ouputs through stdout, These scripts and executables can access the Sesame server through the free API. But we have not integrated the interpreters/compilers directly into Sesame.

Though, if you have the chops, the new shared library access commands would let you do so yourself, at least with the open source languages. The executables for the interpreters would have to be recompiled as a dll/so (some already are). The exposed methods in the shared library could then be accessed from SBasic. Tricky, but doable.

I'm thinking of calling a specified interpreter and receiving its output.

Just a rough idea: Somewhere in the Application global code, an ini file, or an include file the program specifies the path to the PERL, Python (etc.) interpreter.  Then a built-in function simply passes a script path/filename and parameter string to that program and returns the result. It might not be optimal for speed, but someone with the programming chops could go the recompiling, etc. route.  Someone who is more in a situation of, "I'm the only person at my company who has some idea of programming so they stuck me with this and I have to figure it out," would be a lot more likely to find a script somewhere and make small modifications.

MyVar = PERL(ScriptPath, ParameterString)
