The inserter is sort of done

Well, the inserter is finally kind of sort of finished … sort of.
The last glitch I found was not including the %B tag. Nobody knows what it does anyway, but it was needed to make a perfect copy of the script. Given the extracted script and reinserted script were 1-to-1 matched, you may think hell is over.
WRONG!

There are 681 matches for “Derrick Sobodash” on Google.
All of them are me.
Does this make me, officially, the most important person to graduate from my high school?
Inserter is almost done

I finally learned why my script dump was so large–the pointer table is full of false pointers that go to earlier addresses.
I’m consulting Jacky on what to do about this … if they don’t matter at all, I should be able to skip over them and dump normally, but I don’t know yet.
Hopefully he can figure it out. If he does, everything else is set to go for the translation I believe. It will be nice to have it out of the way since it’s really all I’m contributing to the translation. I’ll just have to do about an hour of hacking work on the demo version’s EXE.
Setting up PHP-CLI on Windows XP

This is just a quick one, but something I found information about strikingly absent.
All the PHP-CLI guides explain how to install it so typing “php -v” gives you the expected CLI response, but nobody bothered to explain how to link PHP scripts so you can run them like an EXE without having to type PHP first.

No, really?
I’m sure if you’ve been by in the last … year, you probably noticed it looks different today. My goal was to do an all CSS layout with a minimal number of graphics but still having a professional look.
