Here's the API for 1.4.4a and below, from the github history. See the 3rd paramenter to "algorithm.add" where it says "Username and password (split with Smiley"

Ah thanks mate you are a champion...that will help with rejected shares... i prefer static differ over var diff.

Where does the Nicehash excavator team take donations? I don't think it's a donation-based miner. They're a proprietary, closed-playground project. Their funding is from Nicehash. If you want to pay them for their miner, just mine at Nicehash. In which case, you'd use the more recent 1.5+ versions. If you want to use 1.4.4a, they've clearly abandoned it and don't support it connecting to other pools, so I wouldn't worry about paying them for that lack of support.

You are correct, i cannot find a bitcoin address to donate too in the read me file...
Also Dropky did help a few posts back.. i wouldn't say 1.4.4a its abandoned completely , as u said they are updating to more recent version such 1.5+...

call me old, but im kinda used to using legacy style mining software, furthermore im not sure i could mine the coin i want on supranova pool with the recent ver 1.5 , im assuming i need to connect to a nice-hash stratum..

Regardless thanks for helping me with the password and user name command ill give it a try and report back ... Smiley
