Detah@Dead Souls Dev: what does changing the extention from .c to .txt do? I would think 99% of the chars should translate automatically.
Mon Jun 29 21:01:29 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: It's already .txt. It's a file I stole from somewhere else, and it's got a lot of weird characters with umlauts and stuff that are in codepage 437, apparently.
Mon Jun 29 21:02:03 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: The one utility I've tried just stripped out the offending characters, which isn't QUITE what I'm going for.
Mon Jun 29 21:03:03 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: Note that I'm using the file with the original author's permission. I just tend to use the term "steal" rather loosely.
Mon Jun 29 21:04:28 2009
[dchat]
Detah@Dead Souls Dev: if you know what the char is supposed to be in ascii, then you could do a Find/Replace. Its cumbersome, but it will work.
Mon Jun 29 21:04:59 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: I'm having a little difficulty figuring out what the characters are supposed to be, but I'll do that if I have no other choice. Thanks.
Mon Jun 29 21:05:01 2009
[dchat]
Detah@Dead Souls Dev: if its code {} [] and ;, then you are probably only looking at about 10 Replaces.
Mon Jun 29 21:05:44 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: It's pretty much using the whole range of weird characters from differently languages.
Mon Jun 29 21:21:40 2009
[dchat]
Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: If its using the whole range of strange characters, how can you convert it to ascii? There won't be characters to map to.
Mon Jun 29 21:22:41 2009
[dchat]
Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: Well really -any- strange characters outside ascii don't have anywhere to map to.
Mon Jun 29 21:23:10 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: I believe ASCII has equivalents for stuff with umlauts and such, doesn't it?
Mon Jun 29 21:24:00 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: Hm. Well my final goal is to be able to simplify everything down to what can be typed with a standard US keyboard, so that kind of works. I just need to be able to read it so I can easily search and replace...
Mon Jun 29 21:24:26 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: I have ways, it's just cumbersome. I'll work on it later, I think...
Mon Jun 29 21:25:04 2009
[dchat]
Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: Well 'iconv' can do a conversion between types but you will lose information if you want to go to strict ascii
Mon Jun 29 21:25:29 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: Okay, extended ASCII, then. I just need to read it... iconv, you say?

Aransus@Pyloros: yeah, those were useful for creating menus on boot disks
Mon Jun 29 21:29:44 2009

Mon Jun 29 21:30:06 2009

Mon Jun 29 21:31:42 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: That would be nice... There aren't ASCII equivalents? I thought it had an extended character set?
Mon Jun 29 21:44:33 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: You have some midunderstandings. ASCII is a 7-bit character set with no funky graphics nor accented characters.
Mon Jun 29 21:45:01 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: I can see that, now. I believe the term I wanted to use was Unicode. I get confused regarding these things...
Mon Jun 29 21:45:05 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: all of the ISO-8859-* and CP* series of encodings use ASCII as their low half and various ther things in the hifher half.
Mon Jun 29 21:45:14 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: And yea, unicode is the catch-all thingy.
Mon Jun 29 21:45:44 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: There are many variants of unicode, for most stuff that doesn't need asian stuff UTF-8 is best.
Mon Jun 29 21:46:23 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: in UTF-8 you still have ASCII as the lower half, and multibyte variable length elements for non-ASCII chars.
Mon Jun 29 21:47:04 2009
[dchat]
Raudhrskal@Dead Souls Dev: Note, that the FluffOS srive is currently 100% unibyte, so strlen() on a string containing a multibyte unicode character will return its length in btes, not chars.

Mon Jun 29 21:48:17 2009

Mon Jun 29 22:24:47 2009

Haldir@Pending: Well, the reason why would be I had a friend who I became a fierce competitor with in everything, and he knew pi to like 130 places or something, so I had to try to be better than him. I failed, of course. The way I did it was 5 digits at a time.
Mon Jun 29 22:29:18 2009

Tue Jun 30 17:38:47 2009

Tue Jun 30 17:39:09 2009

Tue Jun 30 17:40:31 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: I think the simplest way is to add more hours, but I could be wrong.

Brian@Titanus: it seems that the mud time is handled by the seasons daemon
Wed Jul 1 08:49:01 2009

Brian@Titanus: and- it says tick tick() and some currecnt local time / 1200, which means I migt be able to go like, * 2 and it would last 2 days for example...

Detah@Dead Souls Dev: there's some initial amusement at watching moderately intellegent people tackle some social quandaries. Its the completely lack of context and complete lack of learning that keeps me away after reading just 3 posts. *sigh*

Brian@Titanus: I just had some koolaid i mixed with about 3 cups of sugar, you didn't have any of that did you?
Wed Jul 1 19:45:35 2009

Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: i've heard that sugar highs are psuchosomatic
Wed Jul 1 19:48:35 2009

Brian@Titanus: well I didn't mean to put that much in but I didnt use a cup and I dont have the best eyesight

Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: The annoying thing is different versions seem to have different commands.
Wed Jul 1 20:21:33 2009

Brian@Titanus: and that was the original, the mud version is not theirs but it is very simular

Brian@Titanus: Could you imagine having to use ed as a word processor back in the day?
Wed Jul 1 20:27:53 2009
[dchat]
Tahin@Kar Unol: It wouldn't be that bad as a word processor, actually.

Kalinash@Fire and Ice: i spent years programming cobol with a line editor
Wed Jul 1 20:28:36 2009
[dchat]
Brian@Titanus: maybe not. I don't use Ed a lot, i usualy just use vim, and if ssh is bugging me, I just vim it localy and svn commit it
Wed Jul 1 20:29:15 2009
[dchat]
Brian@Titanus: which is a good thing because if someone screws up the mud I can just rollback the version
Wed Jul 1 20:31:04 2009
[dchat]
Brian@Titanus feels alone for probably being the only one who would use version control on a mud

Tahin@Kar Unol: I've considered it, but it's not really worth it, honestly.
Wed Jul 1 20:32:53 2009

Detah@Dead Souls Dev: no matter whow many times you say 'ed isnt too bad', it doesnt change the fact that ed is bad.

Kalinash@Fire and Ice: it's not bad at doing the task for which it was designed
Wed Jul 1 20:35:10 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: No, I mean, what's the "task for which it is designed"?
Wed Jul 1 20:35:14 2009
[dchat]
Detah@Dead Souls Dev: well lets see. the real issue is, is there a more efficient way. Answer: I think so. If you are local to the host, then edit in text editor and paste into directory. update. if you are not local and you have write access, edit in text editor and ftp. update. If you are not local and only have localdir privs, then use creweb and upload to your own personal dir. update. I think that covers it.

Kalinash@Fire and Ice: designed in the day of line-mode only connections

Tahin@Kar Unol: I kind of want to figure out how to add syntax highlighting to creweb.
Wed Jul 1 20:40:21 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: I was thinking Javascript, but that might do it too.
Wed Jul 1 21:23:28 2009

Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: I've never found a decent javascript code editing component.

Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: If somebody finds a good (free!) one with syntax highlighting and other codish features the please tell me.
Wed Jul 1 21:24:35 2009

Ideysus@ShadowMUDii: Would it conflict with the 'Your Soul is Cratylus's now!' license?
Wed Jul 1 21:26:06 2009

Tahin@Kar Unol: http://shjs.sourceforge.net/ looks kind of promising.
