No regular daily stats yet, but I'm making progress; right now I can get the Statsman.org Folding@Home stats for TA from the non-W3C-compliant HTML that they're written in to a much simpler comma-delimited text file using only the search-and-replace functions of UltraEdit-32 (my favorite editor) and then into MS Access 2002. The next step is to automate the process with UNIX shell commands (guess I need that package of UNIX utilities for Windows; what's that called again? ;))

A few stats for now (the first two ripped shamelessly from the statsman page, the rest are from my database)...

Team Anandtech
Position: 17th overall
Position (mid-November): 18th overall
Total members: 193
Active members (this week): 69
Active members (yesterday): 46

We need increased participation if we want to maintain our 17th position (actually 16th, due to an anomality in the way F@H does the stats).

In the words of a famous SETI member, "More, more, more!" :D

Edit: I noticed that I forgot to include our WU and score count. :Q

Also, I need to date the thread title, so when I have more than one of these threads, we will be able to tell them apart.

Thanks for reminding me.. I gotta get that PC converted over. :eek:

Guess I should wait until the MTR is over though, then I'll switch it. ;)

Good idea jliechty, a daily stats page sure makes the project more interesting.
Thanks for stepping up to the plate.

I believe the unix package you would be looking for is Redhat's Cygwin. Provides a lot of unix functionallity, including perl, sed/awk, vi, cron, telnetd, ssh/sshd, ftpd, bash, curses, etc, etc. I use it quite a bit. My favorite editor is vi/vim, and luckily vim has a port for every environment I work in (HPUX, SunOS, OS/2, DOS, Win2k/XP). So, I know one editor pretty well, and I can get around in it very reasonably.

Anyway, if you want some help with some of the unix scripting stuff under cygwin/bash/cron, let me know if I can lend any assistance.
