| GumbyBRAIN | It's up to speed it up? |

| F | hello everyone |
| action | ew73 entertains himself for a few minutes with bash.org. |
| ew73 | entertains himself for a few minutes with bash.org. |
| imMute | ew73: only a few minutes? |
| ew73 | imMute: I'm kind of tired, I was thinking about taking a nap. Or masturbating. Or both. In no particular order. |
| action | f00li5h waits 8 hours, and witnesses ew73 pasting his 100th bash quote |
| f00li5h | waits 8 hours, and witnesses ew73 pasting his 100th bash quote |
| imMute | righto |
| ew73 | In either case, bash.org doesn't belong. |
| xbansheex | lol |
| ew73 | f00li5h: The keys are like, right next to each other. |
| xbansheex | I want to make a bash scraper... |
| f00li5h | ew73: yeah |
| imMute | xbansheex: PoCoIRC! |
| arpwatch | is Test::LongString is a requirement for Mechanize? |
| f00li5h | xbansheex: i'm sure you can crawl the whole site, and generate out fortune cookie files |
| imMute | i think either purl or workbench scrapes bash |
| ew73 | xbansheex: If you say 'And then make an ircbot' I will come to your house and I will remove your spine. |
| imMute | heh, its purl :) |
| xbansheex | Actually, I was thinking about an ircbot however I'm really not patient enough to write one. |
| ew73 | You're lucky. Today, you keep the spine. |
| xbansheex | The bash scraper wouldn't take more than 50 lines I anticipate... Less if you're a better programmer than me, which most of you probably are... |
| geekdom | dumb question, what is wrong with $a=chomp<STDIN>; |
| xbansheex | chomp $a=<STDIN> |
| geekdom | THANKS |
| xbansheex | look at it with parantheses: $a=(chomp(<STDIN>)) vs. chomp($a=<STDIN>) chomp returns the number of lines chomped so $a would prolly hold the value '1'. |
| ew73 | chomp! |
| geekdom | cool. I have learned I need to learn perl to be a unix admin and there is no way round it. Problem is I learn it, three years later I forget it again. |
| xbansheex | lol |
| geekdom | :) |
| xbansheex | lol |
| geekdom | You are not in the RTP area ? |
