I’ve got Felix working with Memory Serves now. There are still a couple of kinks to work out; for example, memories on the server aren’t fully integrated with the Memory Manager dialog in Felix. But normal memory and glossary searches are working, so I’m making this early release.
I expect to have the final release of Felix 1.2 and Memory Serves 1.0 within about a week, right on schedule. In addition to the network capability, I’m planning on adding a couple more improvements to Felix for the 1.2 release, along with some improvements to Memory Serves for the 1.0 release.
You’ll need the latest version of Memory Serves in order to use it from Felix, because I had to make a couple of changes to get them working together well.
Download Felix version 1.1.8 (6.7 MB)
Download Memory Serves version 0.3 (6.9 MB)
Using the Network Function
To connect to a memory on the server, copy the connection string for the desired memory/glossary in Memory Serves, then from the Felix File menu, select Connect… (you can do the same thing from the glossary window).
The Connection Dialog appears. Copy in the connection string, and click OK.
Now you should be able to use the networked memory just like an ordinary Felix memory.
There are still some kinks to work out before the official 1.2 release, but if you’d like a preview of the network function, I’d greatly appreciate any feedback and bug reports.
