    Ok, 058-2 works for me. If cp866 is copied to 058-1 Electrum_SysFiles it works too.

    But is there any explanation why cp866 is needed at all? R047a lacks it and still works fine.

    I think it's due to some of the new localization code that was added in the meantime.

    Everything works fine now! Please take a look at the colors: http://i48.tinypic.com/73ibee.jpg
    As you see, in Vista it is a bit difficult to clearly distinguish this colors. Would it be possible to choose a kind of orange/red background for the frozen addresses?

    Another question: Thomas wrote some days ago, that the consolas font could be added as an option. Is this realizable?

    I send you some bacon  Wink


    Adding preference dialogs for font and color customization can be
    done by Thomas but I don't think it's a big priority for him at the moment.

    For colors, have a look here: http://colorschemedesigner.com/

    Just tell me the RGB codes for your preferred colors, and I can point you to the
    relevant changes you can make to the code (or provide you with a patch, as you prefer).

    For the moment my priority is to stabilize the servers.
    the increase of traffic caused by Satoshi Dice has revealed some inefficiencies in the server code.

    Excellent progress! Donation on it's way!

    I think i found one mini external bug: "Download" and "Portable" link is the same for v0.58.

    And a question: Addresses are now huge compared to label names (they look tiny). Is it normal that the font for "Label" tab is different?

    Thanks.

    Hi, I just fixed the font size issue (build 0.58-3).

    I just changed a few design details (colors, fonts, window size):




    I also inverted the checkbox for the change address. Now it never creates a change address unless i check the box.
    I changed the text next to the checkbox to: "Create change address"

    Thanks.
    As every command starts with "electrum ...", it would be nice if you could preset the "electrum" command example in the next build?

    I will check if I can do that in a clean way, but here's a tip: you can just type 'el' then hit TAB to autocomplete the name Smiley  

    (Yes I do speak some French too!)

    As of 0.59, in the console, it is now possible to just type 'e' for electrum. Smiley

    So, for example:

    Quote

    Sat 06/16/2012 20:58:29.53> e -o balance
    7.137

    Sat 06/16/2012 20:58:33.87>

    Does anyone else have problems with their clients not updating (on ecdsa.org server)?

    Yes, ecdsa.org seems to be stuck at block 185096. I would suggest to use electrum.novit.ro in the meantime - it's been quite stable lately.

    I did some more digging why I couldn't change servers, and I think I figured it out. If I change the server using electrum the wallet updates as
    Code:
    'server': u'electrum.novit.ro:50001:t'
    , where the (working) default was
    Code:
    'server': 'ecdsa.org:50001:t'
    . If I make adjustments to the wallet by hand so that "u" is not appended everything works perfectly (I am able to connect to other servers like that just fine).

    edit: confirmed by another friend, but only for tcp
    edit 2: found out "u" stands for unicode string. I have no idea why this wouldn't work then.  Roll Eyes

    Really strange... I haven't had that kind of issue at all.
    Just curious, does the wallet recovery procedure work for you, or does it also fail?

    Nope, not working either.

    Yes on both counts. I'll try on a different windows version when I get the chance.

    This could help us find out what's going on.

    I can't seem to restore or create a new wallet using the latest version. I'm not sure if it's due to my incompetence, lack of patience (That damn generating addresses box stays open for 30 minutes) or something else.

    Any advice?

    Hi,

    30 minutes is definitely not normal... Restoring a wallet can take between a few seconds and several minutes depending on your transaction history. For instance, my wallet (568 transactions currently) takes about 5 minutes to restore.

    I would guess both issues (restoring and creating a new wallet) are related, so let's try to work on the easier one first: new wallet creation.
    Can you try that from the console and let me know of any error messages?

    Code:
    electrum create

    Just hit 'Enter' at all questions to accept the default values.
    Generation should complete in less than 5 seconds normally.
