Oh, fair enough, I have not read through the documents completely but I wondered about somethings that I didnt see. If they are things that are there you can just tell me to read it and I will find it or point me to where in the documentation, but you need not explain if it is in the documentation.
1.Is Ymail application platform, in sync with browserplus? It would be cool if an app could select files from the computer or extract a file from the computer and put it as an attachment in a new email. Perhaps the zip function from browserplus could be linked to allow for zip files to be made and then attached. I didnt see that in the docs, and I wondered.
I ask this because when I look at Browserplus it is something that I got interested in and spurted out in terms of development at least in my view. I have to admit, you and this application platform has been more responsive than it when i tried to engage myself. But, extensibility is the key if you want to be able to do more on the platform.
second, is it possible for an email to be made that initiates the need of an app to another user. Say I have an email I made with an app but it requires the app for its output to be as i would like to my sender, but my sender doesnt have the app, would a signal to the sender come up asking to install the app?

(joecomotion @ 18 Sep 2011 3:30 PM)You're welcome. Also note that you can add a .bat file under Windows so that you can type "ymdt" instead of "php ymdt":

(Houyhnhnm @ 15 Sep 2011 10:58 AM)I see, thanks joecomotion:)
I ran an app, this will be fun to work with:) I wish yahoo would make its own package for installation of php and ymdt together

(joecomotion @ 13 Sep 2011 11:41 AM)No, it's working, but if you don't give it a command, ymdt spits out a summary of all available commands. Try, for example:
php ymdt apps
QUOTE
(Houyhnhnm @ 12 Sep 2011 8:33 PM)I put ymdt into a place and placed its location on the path, but when I run ymdt, i get this error
"Could not open input file: C:\Users\NL\Desktop\the"
but, when I run
php ymdt
where the ymdt file is located i get this
"Yahoo! Mail Development Tool Version 1.33
First argument must be a command
Usage:
ymdt [flags] [command arguments]
Type 'ymdt help ' for help on a specific command.
Available commands:
apps lists all of your apps
create creates a new app
destroy delete the entire app
del deletes one of an app's files
dev develop-o-matic mode
get get latest of an app's file(s) from dev server
help get help on a specific command
ls list all of an app's file(s) and their URLs
put upload apps file(s) to dev server
signup set up your account for doing development
tester list, invite, or delete testers
compress compress assets
uncompress uncompress assets"
so I have php running but I did something wrong with the ymdt path, I assume?
