[20:38:25] ski ComputerTech : use `puts' or `fputs', if you're not using any formatting specifiers with `printf'

[20:38:42] ski for `moo.c'

[20:39:52] ski puts("moo");

[20:39:53] ski or

[20:40:06] ski fputs("moo\n",stdin);

[20:40:22] ski er, s/stdin/stdout/, obviously

[20:40:59] ski h4 : can't ComputerTech read manuals ?

[20:41:25] ski well, there's `woman' as well

[20:41:38] ski (although you might not have it installed)

[20:42:13] ski reminds me i need to install some `info' docs, too

[20:42:42] ski don't swear, h4

[20:43:20] ski ComputerTech : "Unified Modelling Language", if you must know

[20:43:56] ski you'd better stay away from it .. i'm not sure your pure soul could handle its iniquities

[20:44:28] ski anyway, it's part of the general OO nonsense craze

[20:45:45] ski ComputerTech : obligatory reading : "PHP: a fractal of bad design" <https://www.pixelstech.net/article/1334166417-PHP%3A-a-fractal-of-bad-design>

[20:46:56] ski ComputerTech did this, to themselves ?

[20:47:12] ski blyat ?

[20:49:43] ski s/not/now/

[20:50:22] ski n0s3y|afk : *aaah*, the horror

[20:51:59] ski senpai : tool you built ?

[20:52:34] ski cool

[20:56:45] ski s/godless/godess/ ?

[21:05:54] ski oy

[21:08:50] ski someone should perhaps compile statistics on how long CT's "brb"s last

[21:09:01] ski database

[21:57:30] ski JohnnySin : oh, atm looking a little at "Acheron VM - Virtual 16-bit CPU for 6502 computers" <https://www.white-flame.com/acheron/>,<https://acheronvm.github.io/acheronvm/>,<http://forum.6502.org/viewtopic.php?t=2236> by White_Flame

[21:58:01] ski .. oh, rails is a user in here. sorry, didn't notice

[22:08:19] ski ComputerTech : ever tried running HexChat in a terminal ?

[22:08:38] ski https://web.archive.org/web/20040219095549/http://zemljanka.sourceforge.net:80/cursed/screenshots/xchat-1.png

[22:08:44] ski https://web.archive.org/web/20040419075108/http://zemljanka.sourceforge.net:80/cursed/screenshots/xchat-2.png

[22:08:54] ski using Cursed GTK

[22:10:52] ski (<https://web.archive.org/web/20080511194130/http://zemljanka.sourceforge.net/cursed/>,<https://web.archive.org/web/20141228082809/http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/cursed/cursed.html> for some more info)

[22:13:04] ski i'm sure h4 would be willing to cycle ComputerTech, for them

[22:14:32] ski regexen are overrated

[22:15:11] ski s/moo/mud/

[22:16:57] ski Cheney didn't think of unknown knows, now did he ?

[22:18:47] ski nin

[22:52:36] ski sushi would perhaps call herself ordinateuse

[22:52:59] ski what hue of color ?

[22:54:16] ski Billy knew

[22:54:32] ski .. "Outlast" quote

[22:55:03] ski Billy knew about the Walrider, iirc

[22:55:38] ski an adversary (of sorts) in a horror game

[22:55:54] ski possibly taken/inspired from german folklore

[22:56:12] ski many are, sure

[22:56:15] ski a few are nice

[22:56:45] ski Soma was interesting. also The Cat Lady and Fran Bow

[22:57:09] ski to a large extent, they seem to be pretty mindless, though

[22:57:24] ski well, the game mechanics wasn't that good, at times, sure

[22:57:57] ski the philosophical concepts brought up were the more interesting part

[22:59:20] ski building up an eerie atmosphere is more interesting

[23:00:04] ski what is, senpai ?

[23:02:42] ski hm, i know of a F[i]sh shell

[23:03:15] ski (based around logic programming as a core concept. you can spawn named pipes, and pass them as arguments to commands)

[23:03:42] ski (and being able to define your own commands, using pattern-matching)

[23:04:45] ski so is your terminal named "fish", or a shell (that you're not using for the script) ?

[23:04:58] ski which ? :p

[23:06:03] ski <http://fishell.sourceforge.net/> is the one i had in mind

[23:06:19] ski a terminal is not a shell

[23:08:02] ski ah .. yea, that's the terminal :)

[23:08:42] ski (i've played around a little with Konsole before .. mostly to test if it does some features differently than other terminals)

[23:09:17] ski XTerm works okay, for me

[23:10:11] ski .. long time since i last played any Quake (I or II or III Arena)

[23:10:27] ski yea .. i know

[23:11:33] ski (unfortunately, a lot of terminals, including Gnome Terminal, insists on lying (in environment variable `TERM') and pretending they're XTerm, despite not supporting all (program-facing) features that XTerm does. this often causes breakage in programs, getting garbled output from them)

[23:12:04] ski long time ago, i played some multiplayer Quake I with someone on an IRC channel

[23:12:55] ski (i've done one for terminal colors and markup, before)

[23:13:21] ski yea .. apparently Ircle invented an incompatible (but apparently arguably more sensible) format for colors

[23:13:30] ski (learned about that, yesterday)

[23:18:08] ski so far (excepting colors), i'm aware of BboldB,_underlined_,VinverseV,]italicized],FblinkingF,^strokethrough^,QmonospaceQ

[23:18:17] ski (not all those work in all clients, though)

[23:19:58] ski see <https://www.mirc.com/help/html/control_codes.html>,<https://www.mirc.com/colors.html>,<https://web.archive.org/web/20120211151852/http://ircle.com:80/colorfaq.shtml>,<https://modern.ircdocs.horse/formatting.html>

[23:21:44] ski "subsplease" ?

[23:21:58] ski a protocol for requesting subtitles ?

[23:58:06] ski senpai : "CR" ?

[23:58:58] ski (hm, also recalled "In Sound Mind" is a nice horror game)
