151302 -
151303 - Gary cites problem showing need to use savx for creating directories
151304 - in all cases when a file is opened. ref SDS 0 U15N  Analysis in a
151305 - letter to Gary, ref SDS 0 4O8K, indicated possible risks, and planning
151306 - suggested a way to address, if not solve the risk. ref SDS 0 4O8K
151307 - Made change requested by Gary, ref SDS 0 YW5W, and added new features
151308 - to alert users when management criteria are not filled out.
151309 - ref SDS 0 PL8L  Gary is using other programs for writing and editing
151310 - documents, and possibly for data entry in SDS. ref SDS 0 874H  to
151311 - strengthen productivity, we need to be thinking about how to
151312 - strengthen SDS editing so people can more easily learn to apply the
151313 - power that integrates information capture with adding structure and
151314 - management support. ref SDS 0 LQTU  Sent Gary an email notifying that
151315 - an update is on the web for the SDS program and my records.

151702 -
151703 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Gary saying...
151704 -
151705 -    1.  I'm not quite there [for entering a publication into the SDS
151706 -        Reference field for "Other Files"]
151707 -
151708 -            1.  Using F1 F5 F6 I get an OF entry in the SDS record.
151710 -                 ..
151711 -            2.  I enter F: 02 14 60 02 12 2501 as a file name, add
151712 -                description, etc. ref DRT 1 S05Y
151713 -                ..
151714 -            3.  Selecting the line opens a new file.
151716 -                 ..
151717 -            4.  I do "g x.txt" from the command line and et the text
151718 -                file I prepared from the article. ref DRT 1 S06T
151719 -
151720 -                  Good use of get command.
151721 -
151722 -                  On 021214 Gary is working on a utility to create a
151723 -                  uniform left margin for received documents, because
151724 -                  formatting with cut and paste takes time, ref SDS 25
151725 -                  LY3M, as reported on 021027. ref SDS 20 K87F
151727 -                 ..
151728 -            5.  In this file I add an anchor and save the file
151730 -                 ..
151731 -            6.  From the SDS record I create a link to the anchor (I
151732 -                remember now that linking will create the anchor.),
151733 -                ref DRT 1 00SX
151735 -                 ..
151736 -            7.  I try to return to the file using the link, and I get a
151737 -                "Citation Line not present!" error.
151739 -         ..
151740 -    2.  The file is not where it should be. Restarting SDS doesn't
151741 -        help. Using the control field gets me an empty file.
151742 -        ref DRT 1 S07U
151743 -        ..
151744 -    3.  What have I messed up?
151745 -
151747 -  ..
151748 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 responding to Gary's letter, per above,
151749 - ref SDS 0 4O2F, and saying....
151750 -
151751 -    1.  You may have found another "hole" in the system.
151752 -
151753 -    2.  On 021013 made a major improvement to handle documents received
151754 -        the same as docs issued, ref DIT 1 NV5M, and this solved the
151755 -        problem I think you had today, ref SDS 18 YV9I, by automatically
151756 -        entering savx to create directories.
151758 -         ..
151759 -    3.  One solution might be to use savx universally.  Not sure it
151760 -        causes any harm, and likely have not done so because of
151761 -        personal cultural inertia. ref DIT 1 R06L
151762 -
151763 -            [...below, adopted this change. ref SDS 0 PH7O
151764 -
151765 -            [...below, Gary wrote back concurring with universal use
151766 -            of savx.
151768 -    ..
151769 -    4.  Specifically, when you open a new file for a "publication"
151770 -        (which incidentally it looks like you did everything
151771 -        correctly), you need to hit the home key and enter savx [Home]
151772 -        to create the directory structure, since most of the time it is
151773 -        not there. ref DIT 1 W07F  Creating a link, executes a "save"
151774 -        command, but if the directories are not there, it doesn't
151775 -        really work.  That's what it sounds like happened in this case.
151776 -        The code created the link, executed "save" and then closed the
151777 -        file, since, if you need it open, you can get back by opening
151778 -        the link just created.  All makes sense, except Rod has not
151779 -        gotten around to filling this particular "hole" because there
151780 -        are lots of other things to do, per my letter yesterday, and
151781 -        since I personally know all about savx and use it
151782 -        intrinsically, there is initial shock that this kind of thing
151783 -        goes wrong.
151785 -         ..
151786 -    5.  Anyway, I think "savx" is the solution to your issue today.
151787 -        ref DIT 1 VL8F
151788 -
151789 -            [...below, Gary wrote back saying this solved his
151790 -            immediate problem.
151792 -         ..
151793 -        We could make savx the default function.  But, is there any
151794 -        down side to this, or is it a "no brainer" as they say?
151795 -        ref DIT 1 PPUS For example, in the case of just opening any old
151796 -        file, the save command helps people avoid a mistake of putting
151797 -        something in the wrong place, by forcing the user to think
151798 -        about structure, rather than just put anything anywhere, under
151799 -        your recent dictum about people avoiding thinking at any cost.
151800 -        On 010425 Morris noted SDS is a utopia because everything is in
151801 -        the right place at the right time. ref SDS 12 EP7F
151803 -             ..
151804 -            [...below, adopted this change. ref SDS 0 PH7O
151806 -         ..
151807 -    6.  If we use savx it will not know the directory structure needs
151808 -        to be established by careful thinking. ref DIT 1 0R9K Without
151809 -        thinking, files wind up anywhere and everywhere, and so they
151810 -        are nowhere to be found when needed; it is a KM dilemma
151811 -        observed by Eric Armstrong on 010916, ref SDS 15 KA6H, 2001, and
151812 -        again a few weeks later on 0110003, he noted that problems
151813 -        finding information when needed paralyzes productivity.
151814 -        ref SDS 16 EC5N Earlier on 001207 Reuters reported that too many
151815 -        people having too many problems reduces productivity, like Eric
151816 -        says, but a lot of people don't care about productivity.  They
151817 -        care are user friendly that is easy to learn, noted recently on
151818 -        021212. ref SDS 24 7M3J However, Reuters goes on to report a
151819 -        "ripple effect" of lower productivity causing lower earnings
151820 -        and stock prices, which people care about deeply. ref SDS 11
151821 -        V54M
151823 -             ..
151824 -            [...below, added messages to alert users when fields needed
151825 -            for Knowledge Space have been omitted. ref SDS 0 PH7O
151827 -         ..
151828 -    7.  We might say that linking for sure needs to use savx, yet that
151829 -        too has the potential for error. In the case of formal
151830 -        correspondence, the Doc Log fills out secondary fields that
151831 -        establish location in Knowledge Space. ref DIT 1 1C4L
151832 -
151833 -            [...below, adding savx to create structures for all new
151834 -            documents, eliminates need to add code for linking.
151835 -            ref SDS 0 YW5W
151837 -         ..
151838 -    8.  Actually, for publications, which you were defining today,
151839 -        secondary doc log fields are used.  Maybe we could let the
151840 -        system query to verify everything is filled out, and, if not,
151841 -        return a message before opening the file, and if so, then open
151842 -        the file and execute savx, like with formal correspondence.
151843 -        ref DIT 1 TF5L
151845 -             ..
151846 -            [...below, added messages to alert users when fields needed
151847 -            for Knowledge Space have been omitted. ref SDS 0 PH7O
151849 -         ..
151850 -    9.  You can see an example of secondary fields for publications,
151851 -        ref DIT 1 SG6H, in the record for 020816. ref SDS 17 0001  You
151852 -        have to open my records on your computer to see the structure
151853 -        on line 031004.
151855 -         ..
151856 -   10.  What is your take on this stuff?
151858 -         ..
151859 -        So, very sorry about today.  I know how discouraging it is to
151860 -        struggle with new and unfamiliar instructions, ref DIT 1 UI3G,
151861 -        and yet do everything right, only to have a lot of work and
151862 -        time wasted because of a "little inconsequential detail," noted
151863 -        by Morris on 921127. ref SDS 3 0674
151864 -
151865 -           Gary says in a response that he expected there would be some
151866 -           frustrations in learning SDS. ref DRT 2 A39K
151868 -         ..
151869 -   11.  The number of conditions people can encounter that cause issues
151870 -        seems to grow and grow, as the level of support is broadened.
151871 -        We actually, need a study to identify similar kinds of issues,
151872 -        get them on a list and work it in a coordinated way.
151873 -        ref DIT 1 VJ3O

1519 -

1521 - 1953
1522 -
152201 - Received ref DRT 2 0001 saying that savx suggested in the letter to
152202 - Gary, per above. ref SDS 0 VL8F, solved his problem.
152204 -  ..
152205 - Gary supports changing the code to use savx for everything,
152206 - ref DRT 2 C131, per analysis in the letter to Gary. ref SDS 0 KITW
152208 -  ..
152209 - Gary says...
152210 -
152211 -       I think this is the correct approach. When the user has
152212 -       specified the file path, use savx to make that a fact.
152213 -       ref DRT 2 UQ6M
152214 -
152215 -       The user specifies paths implicitly in the case of publishing
152216 -       HTML and explicitly in the case of correspondence and Other File
152217 -       documents. ref DRT 2 PPTQ
152219 -        ..
152220 -       There may be instances where the path is not known, but I
152221 -       haven't come across them yet. Certainly whenever the user
152222 -       attempts to import files into SDS, the path is known.
152223 -       ref DRT 2 PPTU
152225 -  ..
152226 - This issue is subtle.  Often we can fairly directly recognized that a
152227 - document pertains to a project and organization or is a publication,
152228 - but the subjects within those high-level structures are more
152229 - complicated, and this causes people to avoid adding a subject.

401506 - Gary says in part...
401507 -
401508 -       I am finding it easier to use other programs to setup documents.
401509 -       In this case I used MultiEdit to wrap the paragraphs for the
401510 -       file, and TextPad to copy sections for quoting in the SDS
401511 -       record.  Here the only glitch is that any paste which goes
401512 -       beyond the end of the file kills SDS, so it is necessary to
401513 -       insert enough blank lines for the paste to work. ref DRT 2 005O
401515 -        ..
401516 -       Essentially all that this shows is that I am more used to
401517 -       Windows editors than DOS ones by now. ref DRT 2 L65K
401519 -  ..
401520 - This is a good strategy everybody follows transforming from IT to a
401521 - culture of knowledge; making the transition between 2 worlds, we all
401522 - rely on what is familiar until new methods are learned.

401534 - Sounds like Gary may not be getting familiar with SDS editing
401535 - functions because the keyboard is not yet hooked up.  We discussed the
401536 - keyboard on 021109; at that time there was planning to investigate the
401537 - DIP switches. ref SDS 22 9Y7O
401538 -

401542 -  ..
401543 - SDS functions and editing are designed to integrate data capture with
401544 - adding structure, subjects and links that make information useful. If
401545 - it is too difficult to use SDS functions for writing a document, for
401546 - example to wrap text in a file, as Gary notes today, then how can this
401547 - be accomplished in SDS records which present a more complex
401548 - environment?
401550 -  ..
401551 - On 010510 Steve Balmer announced that Microsoft is working on
401552 - improving productivity. ref SDS 14 YG5K  A few weeks ago Bill Gates
401553 - announced Microsoft is planning on integrating commands to make
401554 - customers more productive. ref SDS 21 EFBE
401556 -  ..
401557 - Gary might comment on the following concerning transformation...
401559 -  ..
401560 - Microsoft is beginning to grasp that besides being familiar and easy
401561 - to learn, at some point productivity is important.  Gary is not
401562 - productive now with SDS because the keyboard is not fixed up and he is
401563 - not familiar with using both hands to execute functions.  Doubtless,
401564 - SDS editing can be improved.  This requires becoming familiar with
401565 - capturing information accomplished as an integrated process with
401566 - "intelligence" support.  Understanding how these elements combine to
401567 - leverage innate cognitive functions drives desire to learn.  SDS
401568 - "intelligence" support is designed with editing features to support
401569 - that objective, as explained in POIMS. ref OF 1 2300 Microsoft is
401570 - familiar to a lot of people for information technology, but does not
401571 - support KM.  How then do we transform from IT that is familiar, to KM
401572 - that is needed to improve productivity?  How do we make things that
401573 - are not familiar, and so are awkward, unfriendly and slow, - become
401574 - familiar, so people can benefit from the power of integrated
401575 - functionality to work smoothly, friendly, fast and easy, reflecting
401576 - Lynn Conway's question 30 years ago, reported on 960612? ref SDS 5
