Might be interested in this. I can't imagine it'd take too long to knock up, just have to find the time. I'd probably be doing it in C#. --cfp 10:39, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How about the disambiguation of China?

It is not a disabmg page... --Skyfiler 19:41, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Sometimes, if all or most of the links refer to one meaning of the article name, it may make more sense to redirect the disambiguation page to that article, and perhaps set up a disambiguation block. See Wikipedia:Disambiguation for more details. --Neo139 20:12, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] CorHomo

Hi there ! Do you know the wonderful software CorHomo, created on frwiki by Escaladix ? Ok, go here : http://tools.wikimedia.de/~escaladix/corhomo/CorHomo-en.html . It works on the en.wikipedia as well. Have fun :-) 193.133.69.202 20:16, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!! that is the program i was searching. I have tested it, its amazing. I edit the article adding the program description. I will expand it later.--Neo139 23:07, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Platform

A program like this needs to be ported to C. Unfortunately, Java's license is incompatible with those who use GNU/Linux systems. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yarou (talk • contribs) .

Even if you use the GNU Java compiler? -- ReyBrujo 20:48, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

I am considering a fixer based on Internet Explorer. CorHomo does not work on my PC--Skyfiler 16:41, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help please: CorHomo faulting

My PC is a few years old and runs Windows 98. 2 days ago I downloaded CorHomo. The first time I called it, it ran. Every time after that, when I enter my English Wikipedia username and password, I click on "Identification", and I get an error window saying "Error: couldn't open socket: invalid argument.". If in that error window I click on "Details", I get this:-

couldn't open socket: invalid argument
couldn't open socket: invalid argument
    while executing
"socket $host $port"
    (procedure "http_get" line 61)
    invoked from within
"http_get $wikiurl -query [http_formatQuery wpName $nomutf8  wpPassword $passutf8 wpRemember 1 wpLoginattempt Identification]"
    (procedure "identify" line 10)
    invoked from within
"identify "http://$langue.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Userlogin&action=submitlogin""
    ("after" script)

and it refuses to run further. What's gone wrong? (This happens also in the early morning here in England when the WWW is quiet because most Americans are in bed because of the time zone difference.) Anthony Appleyard 09:07, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] not recognizing disambig pages

i'm using version 1.3.2 and it doesn't seem to be able to understand pages like this. Perhaps there needs to be something adjusted in how Corhomo reads pages? -Zappernapper 16:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I have run up against the same problem. In your case, it seems that it doesn't recognize PP as a disamb page because of {{2CC}}. For me, REM has {{3CC}} and George Clinton has {{hndis}} and these don't appear to Corhomo as disamb pages. I'm not sure why, but I sure wish it weren't the case.--Fisherjs 15:43, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
