Hej, Maurice!

22 Aug 05 20:11, you -> me:

ARS>> Do as you know, I haven't seen the scripts. :)

MK> That is because I haven't sent it.  I did write an email to you just
MK> to start things.

It came, I answered.

ARS>> Hope in a couple of days I'll be downloading the kernel-source
ARS>> 2.6. It's 30Mb (I'm on dialup), so I've chosen the later one.
ARS>> WTF, they are both stable anyway. ;-)

MK> Good plan.  We'll see what is the better way to talk about
MK> configurations once you have the source.  It might be more useful to
MK> talk about it in this echo.

Praying qico that it doesn't skip it because of its (qicos) bugs!
Two major problems with qico:
1. It thinks that file is finished if the remote system holds it.
2. Very-very bad sending speed to KittenMail etc. At least for my point... He
already has 78Mb on hold. :-(

MK> I think Fido can be handled better then it currently is and then
MK> things like

MK> encodings

Not a problem except for Terminate etc old stuff that can't be edited... GoldED
can be, but either it's too crappy, or some people are currently doing that.
It'd be better if more people did that, but it's impossible that I do that, as
I don't know the language. ;-)
Damn the buggy ncurses! It'd be sooooo good w/o then and with better xlat...

MK> (fonts),

Pkt can easily handle XML, but Terminate etc won't like it at all... if they
don't have the ability to run a processor before reading a message...

MK> currently handled since to change would still mean that the outbound
MK> pkt's would have to be the same anyhow.

If a tosser converts mail encodings, it's bad... but if the intermediate
encoding is Unicode, nothing is corrupted, IMHO. And well, it wouldn't
necessarily convert transit messages. ;-)

Though I've grown bad at programming, maybe I could write a tosser in Perl...
but I don't understand its Unicode features very well. Python is the only
Unicode-supporting language I've used, but I don't like its regexp features.
Wouldn't like to write in C/++ with all its dangers.

Hej hej!
