Learning new tricks

Well, I’ve been trying to get the Gallery module to work with Drupal. Both of those don’t play nice. In fact, I think messing around one too many times resulted in a corrupt .htaccess file for my Gallery Installation. After much fiddling around, I think I’ve got both installs working fine … separately. I’ve also been having fun with an awesome (and free) tool called Help Maker. Ever wonder how those nifty .chm files are made? .CHM files are help files that are bundled with almost every application worth its salt. Another old Help file format is the .HLP file which is uglier (in my opinion) that a .CHM file. However way you like it, the Help Maker has got you covered and some because it has some other help applications like an Icon Maker, Button Maker, Image Maker, CHM Register, Graphics Converter and Map Editor. Now, I haven’t used all those but it’s essentially got all the tools you need to make the best help manual for your customers. The Help file helps the user to make sense of the application, explains concepts, you get the picture. I’ve tested Help Maker out and it’s so easy to setup that “a caveman could use it”TM. :)In other news, I’ve been busy re-igniting the flames of old friendships. In one day, I’ve managed to bring healing to myself with regards to one friendship that went sour and talk with 3 old friends. Life takes some seriously funny turns. I’ll be praying for the best for everyone. I’m thinking of resuming yoga starting tomorrow or today. If I can get up early… lol
