120704 - more work on SDS for configuring a new user. ref SDS 0 9E6F  Teri and
120705 - Morris have a house guest, who was helpful setting up SDS on Morris'
120706 - computer.  Enjoyed discussing SDS with James, and hearing his views on
120707 - a number of issues. ref SDS 0 2C7K  Morris suggested an exercise to
120708 - pare down the sd 01 directory that has program exe files.  He also
120709 - suggests using original program names, ref SDS 0 GG54  Morris
120710 - discussed product security to reduce incidences of thieves selling SDS
120711 - on the black market and otherwise circumventing distribution
120712 - configurations. ref SDS 0 XF9F  Some of this might be resolved by
120713 - putting SDS and work product files on a memory stick.  Morris
120714 - demonstrated this technology. ref SDS 0 PV3N  The memory stick idea
120715 - might reduce the urgency of providing flexibility for users to install
120716 - SDS program files and work data in locations of choice. ref SDS 0 FA6K
120717 - We can eliminate Pkzip ops and let customers make their own
120718 - arrangements for backup and file transfers. ref SDS 0 GG61  Morris
120719 - demonstrated that it might be possible to replace wsftp and the

121144 - Back at the house, Morris looked through some of the files for SDS.
121145 - He also examined the existing user interface for launching the

150403 -
150404 - Morris asked about "Help."
150406 -  ..
150407 - Originally, a printed help manual was prepared.  Pat Welch reported
150408 - that SDS Help was pretty imposing.  Ross Armstrong at IBM said the
150409 - same thing.  Morris had the Help manual for a year or so, and felt
150410 - this method of presentation was hard for a user to apply.
150412 -  ..
150413 - As a result, in about 1992, SDS Help was placed entirely online for
150414 - access in context.  Currently it is out of date with interceding
150415 - development.  In the last several years a hundred major improvements
150416 - have been made, listed on 000824. ref SDS 12 AX8J  Very little of
150417 - this has been added to Help.

150420 - Help is called in SDS with Ctrl F10.  New users are given some
150421 - training records that present a number of exercises using Help called
150422 - with Ctrl F10.
150424 -  ..
150425 - Still, the platform could be a stand alone environment, because this

160403 -
160404 - Morris raised a raft of concerns about people studying SDS code to
160405 - break processes that manage distribution and ownership rights.  He
160406 - described a group of highly skilled people with nothing to do with
160407 - their skills but wreck havoc on software programs.
160408 -
160409 -        [...below, Morris presented an idea to install SDS on a memory
160410 -        stick, which might solve part of the problem. ref SDS 0 PV3N
160412 -  ..
160413 - An example is the setting in 04702 that controls the version level of
160414 - the program. ref OF 1 SN7H
160415 -
160416 -    This can be moved to within e.exe.

160419 -    put it someplace that is not easy to distinguish.
160421 -     ..
160422 -    On 980722 Morris reported efforts to reverse engineer SDS.  He
160423 -    advised having found that SDS is difficult to reverse engineer
160424 -    because program logic is hard to follow. ref SDS 7 3744  Since
160425 -    Morris is highly skilled in this work, this may suggest hackers
160426 -    would not have an easy time with SDS, and may turn their attentions
160427 -    to softer targets.  On the other hand, Morris points out that folks
160428 -    don't necessarily need to reverse SDS to the point of recreating
160429 -    it, but simply bypassing product levels, and copy protections.
160430 -
160432 -  ..
160433 - Another concern is creating product unique identifications so it is
160434 - not distributed to other people.
160435 -
160436 -    This is a bit complex, but would like to give people the option to
160437 -    designate the number of users in a family, or even a small project.
160438 -    Maybe the simpler answer is say people can install on up to 5
160439 -    computers, and then installation will fail.

230429 -        Morris' demonstration conformed about 10 directories, all at a
230430 -        single level.  This took about 30 seconds or so.  What is
230431 -        required is hundreds of directories in a variety of levels.  If
230432 -        a batch operation can be configured like t11.bat, this could
230433 -        work, where the user executes the op, and everything gets done.
230434 -        If the user winds up having to go locate all of the structure
230435 -        to conform, then this would not be a practical solution.
230436 -        Normally, the transfer takes about 30 - 40 seconds to construct
230437 -        5 zip files for each drive, and another 20 - 30 seconds to
230438 -        install on the target computer, for a total of about 50 to 90
230439 -        seconds, depending on the amount of data to transfer, which
230440 -        relates in part to the period between transfers.  If briefcase

340402 - SDS Data and Program Files Need Flexibility
340403 -
340404 - Morris wants to eliminate specific drives and directories for SDS by
340405 - creating some conversion commands.  The basic SDS directory structure
340406 - remains, but users can specify where to put files, e.g., in Windows
340407 - Programs.  He proposes consideration of a memory stick that could be
340408 - very useful, and in fact eliminate some aspects of program location
340409 - issues. ref SDS 0 PV3N
340411 -  ..
340412 - We considered a couple of ideas...
340413 -
340414 -    1.  Create an Medit command reads a string created by a new user
340415 -        during program setup to identify the location of data files for
340416 -        SDS. Morris suggests some people might select something
340417 -        like...
340418 -
340419 -            c:\microsoft\windows\my documents\my diaries\the life of Billy Joe Bob
340421 -         ..
340422 -        This storage string would have to be maintained in the program
340423 -        somewhere, possibly in 04702, and read at run time.  The string
340424 -        would then be substituted for a symbol, possibly like...
340425 -
340426 -           e: $:\sd\08\000101\02\96\07\21\280412
340428 -         ..
340429 -        Morris feels he can modify Medit to intrepret...
340430 -
340431 -                         $:
340432 -
340433 -        ...as an example, and substitute the string read in the stored
340434 -        location at program launch, again say from 04702.  Medit would
340435 -        then execute the e command as follows...
340436 -
340437 -           e c:\microsoft\windows\my documents\my diaries\the life of Billy Joe Bob\sd\08\000101\02\96\07\21\280412
340439 -         ..
340440 -        A challenge presented by this design is Medit limits on the
340441 -        length of filenames.  We have struggled to get it out to 40 or
340442 -        so.  In Windows 40 characters is barely a warm up.
340444 -         ..
340445 -    2.  Morris proposes allowing users to install the program anywhere
340446 -        they choose.  He feels some customers will want to store the
340447 -        SDS program in something like...
340448 -
340449 -            c:\microsoft\windows\Program Files\Schedule and Diary System\

380506 -
380507 -        Morris demonstrated using a 500 MB memory stick that plugs
380508 -        into a USB port.
380510 -         ..
380511 -        He discussed coding SDS to access data and save to the memory
380512 -        stick, with only SDS program files installed on the computer
380513 -        hard disk.  This permits people to take their records anywhere
380514 -        and plug into the computer that is available, and off they go.
380516 -         ..
380517 -        What seems kind of attractive is to put SDS entirely on a
380518 -        memory stick, and sell a physical object that folks can carry
380519 -        around with them to work on their stuff with any computer
380520 -        available.  This could be downloaded to a permanent work

380531 -        flexibility and organizations would lose some control.
380533 -         ..
380534 -        This could resolve the issue of data trasfer between computers
380535 -        by eliminating it, per analysis of pkzip, above. ref SDS 0 GG61

380538 -        As long as performance is not degraded with a memory stick,
380539 -        this seems attractive.

380542 -        If there is a way to prevent copying SDS program files from the

380546 -         ..
380547 -        Key to making this work is figuring out how to specify which
380548 -        drive SDS code executes...
380549 -
380550 -            A possible simple solution is to eliminate the drive letter
380551 -            in all SDS calls.  The program should then run on only the
380552 -            local drive.
380554 -             ..
380555 -            People could then install SDS on c, d, e, f, or a memory

380559 -            There are likely some problems that will have to be

430430 - We had a few hours to talk before Morris arrived.  James follows SDS
430431 - objectives well, and grasped the theory of Communication Metrics, as
