[00:02:57] <Bytram> I moved all the "Hold" stories to "Back" as they have been pseudo-merged into a new COVID-19 roundup story. Once *that* story is whittled down to what we will actually use, then (and only then) are the selected stories to be officially merged (to give credit to the submitter) and the others declined. So, IOW, itokay to look but Please Do Not Touch!

[21:49:38] <chromas> Not after rehash is done with it at least
[21:50:50] <Bytram> really? I thought I had seen some, but I could have been looking at the raw sub,
[21:50:54] <chromas> I should start doing edits in a local text editor
[21:51:08] <chromas> It's neat to be able to select a block and have it highlight all the other instances of what's selected
[21:51:37] <chromas> If you look at the one I linked, it's got lots o' extra spaces
[21:51:43] <Bytram> what editor do you use?

[22:17:14] <Bender> karma - bytram: 95
[22:18:17] <Bytram> Basically, adds a small "button" at botoom right of text-entry fields. When clicked, brings up the text in that field in your favorite editor.
[22:18:41] <Bytram> where'd you copy it from?
[22:18:52] <chromas> the sn edit field
[22:19:23] <chromas> You know what would be pretty cool? Remember plugins? It'd be neat if I could embed an instance of an external editor in place of the edit field
[22:20:07] <Bytram> that's kinda what this does
[22:21:04] <chromas> noice
[22:21:09] <Bytram> except, you gotta click the button .... the it brngs up an editor window with text in it. Edit. Save. Exit. See changes appear in the field.
[22:21:13] <chromas> I wasn't sure because the screenshot I saw didn't really show anything
[22:21:37] <Bytram> So, you DID find it?
[22:22:05] <chromas> I did a web search and found a blog post
[22:22:21] <Bytram> and?
[22:22:35] <Bytram> did you get it or no?\

[22:24:14] <chromas> ah I found a github repo
[22:24:24] <Bytram> nice!
[22:24:37] <Bytram> I have v1.9.2
[22:25:00] <chromas> project is considered dead. he suggests emacs chrome or ghosttext as a replacement

[22:25:29] <Bytram> clicky
[22:26:09] <Bytram> but... it still works on pale moon. =(
[22:26:21] <chromas> no updates for you!
[22:26:55] <chromas> I guess you could fork and maintain it with all the copious spare time you have
[22:27:59] <Bytram> I'm at v1.9.2 and the github one is 1.9.3
[22:42:57] <Bytram> chromas: fwiw, I still have the .XPI file for it, and since the author has expressly stated s/he is not interested in it any more, let me know
[22:46:16] <chromas> I made my own :D
[22:46:20] <chromas> thanks though
[22:46:24] <Bytram> that said, you're prolly better off with something newer that is still supported.
[22:46:35] <Bytram> np
[22:46:44] <Bytram> how'd you do that?
[22:46:44] * chromas has 1.9.3 now
[22:46:54] <chromas> git clone
[22:47:02] <chromas> then go into the directory and do rake build
[22:47:23] <chromas> Requires some ruby stuff installed. Rake is a ruby-based build thingy
[22:47:41] <Bytram> I downloaded the .ZIP and then got stuck
[22:48:00] <chromas> That works too.
[22:48:22] <chromas> If you have the ruby things then you can do "rake build" within the directory
[22:48:24] <Bytram> 'cept I ain't got ruby installed
[22:48:51] <chromas> sudo apt-get install ruby ruby-paint
[22:49:00] <chromas> +ruby-rake
[22:49:20] <Bytram> tx, but I doubt that will work too well on windows.
[22:49:34] <chromas> Build it on your lin lappy then transfer it over
[22:49:35] <Bytram> ;)
[22:49:43] <Bytram> I
[22:49:52] <Bytram> I spose
[22:50:01] <chromas> or I can send you a build if you trust that I didn't backdoor it
[22:50:27] <Bytram> otoh, whay I have works fine. no need risking breaking it
[22:50:42] <chromas> Hm. I wonder if I build 1.9.2 if the hashes would match your copy
[22:50:47] <Bytram> I do appreciate the offer!!!
[22:51:05] <Bytram> of the XPI?
[22:51:11] <chromas> True. Looks like most of the updates are just license and other nonfunctional stuff. A couple patches for something or another
[22:51:12] <chromas> yeah
[22:51:38] <Bytram> don't bother, I'm good. tx, though!
[22:52:12] <Bytram> anyway, have fun with your new tool!!
[22:52:38] <chromas> heh, looks like all the build does is copy the files to a spot then zip them
[22:53:19] <Bytram> would not surprise me.
[22:53:21] * chromas places with his tool in view of everyone
[22:53:37] <Bytram> ~grab chromas
[22:53:45] <Bytram> !grab chromas
[22:53:45] <Bender> Added quote 95
[22:53:54] <Bytram> ~quote 95
[22:54:00] <Bytram> !quote 95
[22:54:00] <Bender> Quote 95 - <chromas> heh, looks like all the build does is copy the files to a spot then zip them
[22:54:10] <Bytram> oh well!
[22:54:22] <Bytram> break time
[22:54:31] <chromas> oh yeah, the dark ages of restarting the browser to toggle extensions
[22:56:04] <chromas> neat
[22:56:12] <Bytram> =)
[22:56:13] * chromas edits, saves, edits, saves
[22:57:55] <Bytram> beware. It is all too easy to leave an edit window up, get distracted, and go back to the web page ... without the pending edits. You. Have. Been. Warned.
[22:58:47] <Bytram> Yes, I've done that. And more than once. =P
[22:58:59] <Bytram> break time for sure
