 Swath
Well... I guess I will start off by asking if anyone else is having issues with Swath not authenticating?
Swath.net not found either...eww

 Re: Swath
I've noticed that mine sometimes won't if I try to connect too soon after opening swath and twx. I just got into the habit of waiting several seconds after it seems to be all the way open before trying to connect and I no longer have any problems. Related to your problem? Who knows, but can't hurt to try...

 Re: Swath
My only complaint about swath is the way it handles that startup verification. It should default to allowing you to use it instead of disallowing, someday that swath server is going to die and we're all going to be hosed.

 Re: Swath
Mine always says Offline Mode: Denied.
Is there a setting somewhere I am missing that will allow it to work offline? That would be really good, because sometimes I write my TWX scripts during my MBA classes, and I don't always remember to open Swath up before hand when an internet connection is available.

 Re: Swath
Quote: I guess many trade warriors are software pirates... hence the online authorization in Swath Laff, ya... apparently so. I still wish it was a little less strict tho, one site glitch (like a faulty code applet on their server) and the prog suffers fits.

 Re: Swath
Be interesting to see the day when Macahan and Stein decide they no longer want to work on SWATH and decide to take down the SWATH servers. Where would that leave the registered users? I know there are still plenty of helpers not supported that still work (anyone remember TWAR ?) but SWATH is different because of its online verification. Perhaps they'll write a final code that allows registered users to continue to use SWATH after the verification servers get taken down. Just my guess.

 Re: Swath
The offline mode has been working bad for a while, but is now restored and improved with the new version of SWATH (1.9.3). If the servers are down you can play in offline mode for 15 days since your last successful authentication. I see some users fear that SWATH support will suddenly be discontinued and the application will stop working. Don't worry, when the time comes, the last version won't require any online authentication  /Stein

I use them for common scripts and or macros that i use alot but not often enough to set a Ctlr-(hot key) If your asking how to set them up......create a macro.....then click the little bell (beside the record macro button) this is the Trigger Section and follow the direction, need more help or better instructions.
