| rmah | oh |
| Kulrak | it's been done many times! |
| merlyn | the Doctor has simply "reversed the polarity" a bunch of times |
| dec | merlyn: you kept hilighting me on 'dec' ;) |
| merlyn | oh |
| dec | merlyn: so I figured I'd return the favour. |
| merlyn | $x-- is dec-rement $x! however, my irc client doesn't do that fancy highlighting anything invented since 1990 probably doesn't get done in my client |
| mmlj4 | how boring |
| merlyn | DCC was only half implemented, so I turned off the other half |
| mmlj4 | BitchX? |
| dec | heh |
| merlyn | irc.el darn it... I'm hungry. that means putting my shoes back on, and slowly making my way next door to the jack in the box again |
| mmlj4 | i do need to get round to writing an irc client from scratch one of these years... ought to be a neat learning experience |
| merlyn | I wish I had stayed in a hotel with room service now |
| mmlj4 | seeing as I know zip about sockets, etc. |
| merlyn | use PoCo::IRC and Curses.pm or Tk |
| dec | indeed |
| Teratogen | naw, use POE |
| dec | merlyn: Term::Visual is POE+Curses ;) |
| merlyn | Teratogen - that's what we're saying :) 'Hey guys - use THE INTERNET!' |
| mmlj4 | hmm... Tk? um, all I'd want is a glorified telnet interface to port 6667, really |
| merlyn | you'll want curses trust us |
| rmah | mmlj4: why? |
| mmlj4 | i'm sure I'll do a lot of cursing while writing it rmah: the goal of that project is to learn, not to actually use the finished (yeah, right) product |
| rmah | if you say so |
| merlyn | those are opposed goals oh - "not" |
| action | merlyn needs to read |
| merlyn | needs to read those scrappy things often end up getting used thuogh |
| rmah | scrappy? is that a mix of shitty and crappy? |
| merlyn | like scrappy doo, scooby doo's evil clone |
| rutski | hi all |
