I think you need to spend a little more time with the program. A lot of what you are asking for is already available. It does take a bit of time to learn how it works. Patrike has done a phenomenal job of organizing all the different possible actions a miner would like to do in a nice easy to use GUI tempating system and monitoring system.
Thanks for your reply.
Do you KNOW for a
fact that all those things are possible?
Yes, I know all the things I said are possible, because I use them.
In other words, have you tried them yourself and see them work?
Yes.
Because for instance, even Patrike himself admitted that the algorithms are hardcoded.
You can always use a an "unspecified" category. You have to provide the info on the algo or coin though. If you look at the bottom of the algo tab, you will see "custom 1", "custom 2", etc.
Also, if you add a new coin, it will never be updated with new information (the program doesn't give you the option to add that).
Have you, yourself added a new coin and seen it update in the "Coins" tab?
There are APIs to do this yourself, but I just check once a day and manually update.
Regarding the miner software, please explain how to add it. I don't see any option to add "Program X" to the list of "Mining Software". You can only use the ones already there.
I think Patrike already answered this... but it's there. Spend some time with the online documentation. It will show you many of the advanced functions like this.
About the decentralized configurations, if someone messes up a config file, they can always revert back or copy the original ones and start over.
Just because some people can't drive a car doesn't mean the rest of us should be prevented from doing it.
Fair enough. You are assuming they made copies... or even knew what an XML file was at all. I think the original intent of AM was to make it as easy as possible with a point-and-click interface, not to throw people into a config file. But, like you said, there's no reason they can't have both.
