New Support Site Notification Options

I will no longer be sending E-Mail when a new release becomes available.

Now, with the new XOOPS, the following modules have Notification options:

Forum
Download
Web Links

At the bottom of each page when viewing these modules, there are "Notification Options" that you can select. For those of us that had opted to use the "Monitor Forum" or "Monitor Topic" options of the previos XOOPS, must re-activate the notification options if desired.
This is because, the options in the previous version were programed by me, and now they are built in. Besides, the new ones are much better. Don't forget to edit your user profile, to select how you want to be "notified". Either by PM or E-Mail.

Have fun!

CaLogic Statistics (November 2004)

Did you know?
CaLogic was begun in April of 2002
As of version 1.2.2 (13.Nov.2004) it has 101 files with 47,265 lines of code and documentation.
It uses 22 MySQL Tables to store its data.
It has been downloaded over 5000 times.
I have answered well over 1500 support request E-Mails and posts. (and one telephone support request)

CaLogic is free, and it always will be.

I searched the web for years for an Open Source Calendar to use on my web site. I must have tried a dozen different Calendars. Some were written in PERL, others in PHP. None of them lived up to what I expected and needed. What really bothered me the most was that, none of them had taken the time to consider Time Zones. Which was really funny, because, how can you expect to create a web based application, which could have users all over the world, and not take Time Zones into consideration? When I use a Calendar that is based on a server in Timbuktu, I expect it to show the Date and Time where I am, and not that of the server it is running on.

Well, since I am a programer, the only solution was to program a web calendar my self. CaLogic is my solution. I started on it in April of 2002. It is almost finished, I expect it to make its debut around the middle of June, 2002.

You can check out the application as it is now:

I was born (3.3.1966) and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana. Joined the Military (Army Chemical Corps) in 1984. In 1985, I Requested to be stationed on Hawaii but got sent to Germany in 1986. Married a German girl in 1989. Got honorably discharged from the Army in 1991. Started working for Father-in-Law in 1991 in Germany. Been here ever since.

I started tinkering with computers when I got my first pong game in about 1974. Got an Atari 2400 in about 1975. Well, those may have just been game consoles to you, they were much more to me. I started programming RPG in 1981 in highschool. I rated the highest in my class on the "logic entry exam" they made all us kids take. The test was neccessary because there were more students than slots available in the computer class. Only about 20% made it into the class. My teachers were astound that I could program so quickly. So much, that I almost got banned (for hacking the mainframe). Actually, I was astound myself, never knew I had it in me.

Well, after highschool, went into the Army, and got seperated from computers. I really never missed it at the time. Then, in 1985 I got into some trouble, and was forced to take on other responsibilities. Which happend to be a coputer operator. Little do they know, but they actually did me a favor, and changed my life forever. Captain Demitrious P. Stephanopholous, where ever you are, THANKS!!!!

At that time, I started teaching myself basic and CPM. It didn't take long, I sold my car and bought my first computer. A Triumph Adler, Alphatronic PC. It had 64KB Ram, a 5.25" floppy and an orange MONO monitor.

I will never forget the first time I spent all night typing in a basic program (a game, at that time I only wanted to program games). Around 6 0'clock in the morning, with only 20 lines or so to go, I hit enter, and the computer said "beep" out of memory. I thought, no problem, I will just save it to disk, and use "call" to vector in the rest when it's needed. Well, I streched.... a long stretch... and my foot hit the power cord and that was it... the computer was off.... I kind of stared for a few seconds, wondering what had happened... then it dawned on me, I hadn't saved the program once the whole night. Needless to say, I almost trashed the computer (I really wanted to play the game I had just typed in). But instead, I just turned on the damn thing and started typing. Know what? I typed it in the second time twice as fast, and when I was finished, I could program anything in basic. I had even already started to make modifications and improvements on the program, so that I didn't get the out of memory error. The program ended up slimer. Oh yeah, I saved the damn thing after every line I typed in! (At least for the first 200 lines, after that, only every 5 minutes or so). Thats why I have no sympathy for people who loose thier work due to not saving.

Any way, after I got to Germany, I had to take on my regular responsibilities again, so no computer. But you can bet your ass, that I was the only guy on the plane with a dolly carting 3 boxes, in addition to all my Army gear. Yep, that damn computer came with me. I did get alot of funny looks.

Well, about 6 months later, the unit I was in got its first PC. No one knew how to use it let alone turn it on. The Captain (not Demitrious, a different guy, but just as important none the same), said "Hey, get Boone down here, he has a computer in his barracks room". As a matter of fact, I was the only soldier with a computer in my room. And, that was where you could always find me during my off duty time.

So, they called me out of formation and told me to report to the captain. (I thought "OH SHIT, what have I done now?"). I got to his office and this is what he did. He said "Boone, sit here" pointing to a chair in front of the PC. I sat down. He handed me a folder and said in a command voice, while pointing at each object "Computer", "book", "learn". And so I did. The PC was a WANG, it had a 20MB hard drive, a green MONO monitor, and 256KB RAM. It was also MS-DOS compatible, and had a GW-BASIC Compiler, and a built in word processor. But what really changed my life forever, was the folder he had given me. It read "dBASE II from Ashton Tate". I don't need to tell you, but I was in heaven. Not only did I get to work in the command center (as opposed to the motor pool outside brrrr Germany is very cold), but I also got to work on a PC. With in a week, they sent the unit clerk, who could only type on a typewritter ( and she was extremely fast, when she typed is sounded like a machinegun going off) back to the motor pool. She just couldn't keep up with me, and I could (can) only type with 3 or 4 fingers. But when she made a mistake, she had to type the whole document over, I would just have to correct the mistake and send the doc to the printer. She never liked me after that.

But where I really excelled was in dBASE, I had written numerous programs that did everything from form management to unit rosters. It was great, and all the command loved me. They loved me so much, that they allowed me to stay 5 years in Germany. Normally you only stay for 18 months.

I really wasn't allowed to program games on the PC, so I bought a Comodor 128 D (yes I still have it!). And taught myself comodore basic (which I think sucks). But mainly I just played store bought games on it. Pool of Radiance will always be one of my all time favorites, being an AD&D fan.

Well, after I got out of the army, I started to work for my father-in-law. My job was to bring them into the 21st century. They were still using typewritters to type thier bills. What a task. So I bought PC's got them networked, and started programming. with in 2 years, everyone had a PC (30 users), and I had written too many programs to count. Everything from billing and accounting to time control.

During that time, I found an Amiga 500 in the attic of the company (yes, I still have it too!). I used it to replace my 128D for a game computer (couldn't get 128 games anymore).

I abandoned dBase in 1998 when it went visual. It was just not working (it actually sucked). Si I went back to (Visual) Basic. Using access for my databse.

In 1999, I started writting buisness level web applications for IIS using ASP, javascript, vbscript and .Net. I also started using MS SQL for my database.

I also started getting interested in my own private use of the internet. And had to use languages like PERL and PHP with MySQL for the database. I started with guestbooks, and things like that. I always wanted a calendar as well. None of the open source calendars I tried worked for me, so I started CaLogic.
