Hello!

I've been working on a system to save and retrieve information in Algodoo.
The idea was to have something similar to a filing cabinet, where you can store a bunch of files and read them at your own leisure.

But over time, I forgot about it, hence why it took me so long.


But, now, it's finished!
Introducing the GPM (General Purpose Manual)!
The GPM is meant to be that metaphorical filing cabinet -- you can store as many "pages" of information in it as you want and read them back.
One use for this I'm excited about is having documentation for Thyme ready at hand, with just the click of a phunlet.


Instructions on how to use it in scene, as well as a library full of my most used scripts.

You may use your own libraries created this way in your own scenes, as long as you provide credit.

Nice scene.
How come when I search the user list for "Little", nothing shows up.

If I remember correctly, Xray said it was something about Little being too common of a word. :lol:

It makes me wonder how the username wasn't taken!

At the time Little was my nickname from my parents, hence why the account has said name -- but nowadays if I were to make an account, it would probably be a lot more personalized.

I'm still not entirely sure what username I would go with if I could choose again -- but it wouldn't be Little... :lol:


EDIT: It probably would be Little, now that I think about it. :lol:

s_noonan and Little -- You both probably know this, but just in case you don't here are some things about the Algobox Search feature that I discovered over the years:

1. If I search like this...

Search Words: General Purpose Libraries/Manuals
Author: Little
Search In: Title

Result: Sorry, your query didn't return any results!


2. If I search like this...

Search Words: General Purpose Libraries/Manuals
Author: (leave blank)
Search In: Title

Result: It displays every scene with the word General in the title, plus every scene with the word Purpose in the title, and the same for the words Libraries and Manuals. (Way too much information!) :lol:


3. If I search like this (added quotation marks around search words)...

Search Words: "General Purpose Libraries/Manuals"
Author: (leave blank)
Search In: Title

Result: Just ONE scene titled General Purpose Libraries/Manuals. :tup:

4.
Search Words: Libraries
Author: (leave blank)
Search In: Title

Result: Just (2) scenes. "Manuals" returns (3) scenes.

Pros:
You don't need to know the whole title before searching.
71-77% less effort when filling the "Search words" box.
