Some work for zzzzz on the sanitary checkups app and for EnergoPro, nothing substantial, just generated the crashed tables rebuilder, just in case. Something useful to do when you got nothing important to do.
A small but interesting change in unosc.prg in GenerAll, on this day: the driver checks for the date of last backup, and if it finds it older than a week, it won't allow new entries until a new backup is made. I did that? Wow.
In general ledger, a special version of automatics for some tool selling outfit in my area. It's a family shop, and the lady (still wearing minis, not exactly a dopičnjak but not far from it*, and looking good at that) used to work in Bangro and they're close friends with Brlja. This could have stayed his private tezga but he needed me and full support from Avai, so. Later they were very grateful for this automatic transfer (from warehousing and sales into general ledger), because all the taxes were calculated to the last decimal exactly as the law says, and the financial inspectors couldn't find anything to pin on them, and not for the lack of trying. Saved their butts.
Of course, I couldn't have done that without her precise instructions on what goes to which account. The rest is just... technique, once I had a solid coding engine on which to build. Simple, once it's done right.
One of these days the radio in trabant survived by sheer power of will, mine. It was 14:50 or thereabouts, and I was leaving Bangro's parking lot. To get out of there it takes almost a kilometer of a round trip, must drive under the overpass, then around two blocks, to get to a place where I can take a left onto the magistrala road. While waiting at that light (same as on 23-V-1975.), the radio announced 15:00, and I expected to hear Alexis Korner's instrumental version of „Whole lotta love“, which was the opening music for the news ever since last winter's victory (v. 06-II-1997.) and The Walk). All of a sudden it's not that, it's „Radio Belgrade first programme, broadcasting daily news“. I hit the button, and somehow had the presence of mind to not break it, just turned it off rather violently. I knew what happened - after that cunt, the guy who taught oto in Zmaj, sold out, now yet another MP in the city hall did too, and Sloba's socialists now had the majority. Of course, the first thing they do is take over the local radio, no you won't broadcast your own news, you got to relay the state's. Vermin.
Later I also found out that they replaced half of the pop&rock time with narodnjaci.
Before that, most probably, I saw „music of american whites“ on their schedule.
On fifteenth, I wrote rimski.prg, you pass it a number between 1 and 999 and it returns the roman numeral of it. Took me half an hour, what with testing and simplifying. Around september it happened that Pali needed such a piece, and concluded that he better write one... but then thought of house rules on naming stuff, how would Paće name it, seeing as it's a candidate to include into GenerAll... So he tried to write a rimski.prg and look at that, it's already written.
