What version of PtokaX are you working with? I designed Jumble for TestDrive4 and looks like you're using some newer version of lua that does not like .4 & .5. You may want to try 0.4 and 0.5.

There is no reason that line should be generating an error in Lua 4.0. However, I have no means to test this newer version of PtokaX so you are out of luck.

Petition for the release of betas!

PM me the copy of the PtokaX you are using. Hopefully people won't explode at this. "Blah! Blah! Blah! It wasn't released yet."

I tried Jumble with 15.25 and it worked fine. You might of done something incorrect in the config file. Try a fresh copy and see if it works.

"blah blah 15.25 is half year old"

Yes, and VERY few scriptors have access to it OR the latest versions. Another reason to release betas.

just browsed this old thread, and now i know the solution

locale has been set in some of my scripts, so it stuffed al others

i tried with it, and got to kill ptokax completely :D

QuoteThe setlocale function gets two string arguments: The locale name and a
category, which specifies what features will be influenced by this locale. There
are six categories of locales: "collate" controls the alphabetic order of strings;
"ctype" controls the types of individual characters (e.g., what is a letter) and
the conversion between lower and upper cases; "monetary" has no influence in
Lua programs; "numeric" controls how numbers are formated; "time" controls
how date and time are formated (i.e., function date); and "all" controls all the
above functions. The default category is "all", so that if you call setlocale
with only the locale name it will set all categories. The setlocale function
returns the locale name, or nil if it fails (usually because the system does not
support the given locale).
