Default text - should be newest gem
1 comment Created 6 months ago by jdsundberg

Title

Body
It would be far more valuable to see what is the newest gem -- vs saying the oldest gem. Generally - the new stuff is what you are working with. The oldest -- will never change.

I agree. I implemented this in my fork of gembox.

View options -- include - sort by date
1 comment Created 6 months ago by jdsundberg

Title

Right now -- sorting is by name -- as column or table view. Sorting by date -- would be helpful. That way - if you are having an issue -- you can easily see what is new -- which probably is where you should start looking.

Since I have four pages of gems, and I don't think I have an especially high number of gems, I think this would make a better default that to sort alphabetically. It would also help me to make sure I've properly installed a gem.

doesn't work on windows

Currently on doze... installs ok then vegas.rb needed "localhost" instead of "0.0.0.0" then it resulted in a fork error. Not sure if these are gembox things or not. I might use your gembox code sometime for a separate site :) Also you might want to link to info on gem server. Cheers! =-

Hey rogerdpack - I just pushed an update that should fix the fork error. Could you install the latest vegas gem from github and let me know if that works? Thanks, --AQ

it does fork now in windows! sweet!
For some reason it now starts itself twice...and only works on the second time, and pulls up a browser window with a search for the word "child"...

What OS are you on? Can you access the app at that port? I have a feeling it has to do with trying to launch the browser.

Well, I'm on Ubuntu Jaunty.
My bad, oops, yes on that port the gembox is running and I can simply access it.
But I don't remember when did I started it last time. Does the gembox starts automatically once installed?

OK - that makes sense then. You started it probably when you ran the following above. By default, gembox will daemonize and then try to launch in the browser using 'open' or 'start' depending on the platform. It looks like it started above, but there was an error trying to launch it. I'm not too familiar with Ubuntu as a desktop platform. Is there a way to launch a browser from the command line?
