05:30 AM polprog: what is it then?
05:31 AM Tom_L: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipper_(programming_language)

05:34 AM polprog: interesting. ive never heard of it
05:34 AM Tom_L: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hmg/
05:35 AM Tom_L: they ported it to windows but i don't like it near as much
05:35 AM polprog: what are you running it on? DOS or Linux?
05:35 AM Tom_L: dos
05:35 AM Tom_L: still :)
05:36 AM Tom_L: you can hook c, asm etc into it which i did
05:36 AM Tom_L: but for most things you didn't need to
05:39 AM polprog: looks high level enough. nice

08:56 AM polprog: that makes 3 of us. rue_mohr did you see the encoder pics?
08:59 AM rue_mohr: ... not yet..

09:04 AM rue_mohr: oh yes, I saw that
09:05 AM rue_mohr: have you worked out the pinout?
09:06 AM polprog: not yet. i have a ton of work to do
09:06 AM rue_mohr: k
09:06 AM rue_mohr: I have a bunch of jobs today, hopefull it for the week
09:06 AM polprog: oddly enough it shares the edge pin with the switch on the PCB
09:07 AM polprog: so that may be the common pin
09:08 AM rue_mohr: might be ground
10:22 AM Tom_L: top of the morning to ya

02:46 PM polprog: its not the school stuff im concerned with
02:47 PM rue_mohr: I can send you groceries, but not eggs or toiletpaper stores are out
02:48 PM polprog: that would be pretty expensive
02:48 PM rue_mohr: yup
02:48 PM rue_mohr: I could dry everything
02:48 PM rue_mohr: and vacuum pack it
02:48 PM polprog: naw, we have foodstuffs. a lot
02:48 PM polprog: did i tell you
02:49 PM rue_mohr: nothing like vacuum packed dried can of corn!
02:49 PM polprog: yesterday we had a blackhawk flying around over the park..
02:49 PM rue_mohr: ok
02:49 PM polprog: just for the sake of it to get the people back homes
02:49 PM polprog: the park's been crowded
02:49 PM rue_mohr: huh
02:49 PM rue_mohr: bad idea
02:49 PM rue_mohr: your not in the usa tho
02:50 PM polprog: yeah

06:55 PM rue_mohr: I documented almost NOTHING for the spindle controller I did for my cnc
07:06 PM zhanx: finally got a job interview!

10:15 PM Tom_L: rue_mohr, how'd the primer bulb turn out?
10:37 PM rue_shop1: didnt work
10:37 PM rue_shop1: sounds like there is a leak, but I cant find it
10:37 PM rue_shop1: I think I found some on amazon, but I'd like to try the casting again
10:38 PM rue_shop1: the carb came apart where it was sitting, in a way I didn't know it could, and I'm rreally hoping that there wasn't something like a msall ball check that made a run for it
10:43 PM rue_mohr: ok I'm working on setting up aheated bed for one of the 3d printers so I can make face shields
10:43 PM rue_mohr: as apparently more help would be nice
10:43 PM rue_mohr: zhanx_,

11:42 PM Tom_L: still on the house boat
11:42 PM rue_mohr: yep
11:42 PM Tom_L: a danger to herself?
11:42 PM rue_mohr: I dont think there is anything to do when someone starts falling like this
11:42 PM rue_mohr: no
11:42 PM rue_mohr: she's just forgetting she just said things
11:43 PM rue_mohr: its new, about a month
11:46 PM rue_mohr: I suspect it doesn't bode well for my demise
11:46 PM rue_mohr: I been tracking my ability to juggle things in my head going down for a while
11:46 PM rue_mohr: most shows when I'm coding
11:48 PM rue_mohr: if I lose my mind, I have to hope its cause I forget what shelf I left it on
11:49 PM rue_mohr: why is the guy writing this editor seemingly so bad at it
11:49 PM rue_mohr: I can tell I'm going for another rewrite
11:50 PM rue_mohr: I just want to make it to the end of the tutorial
11:50 PM Tom_L: :)
11:50 PM Tom_L: i need to work on my MPG some. seems it's not tracking as good as it should be
11:52 PM rue_mohr: https://viewsourcecode.org/snaptoken/kilo/06.search.html
11:52 PM rue_mohr: I'm at step 140
11:52 PM rue_mohr: he's COUNTING OFF the string matches
11:52 PM rue_mohr: for find next and find prev
11:53 PM Tom_L: did you start on step 1?
11:54 PM rue_mohr: yes
11:55 PM rue_mohr: the second time I started at step one, I modified out all the stupid things
11:55 PM rue_mohr: so, my code looks a *bit* like the tutorial, but is moderatly diffretn
11:56 PM Tom_L: using gcc?
11:56 PM rue_mohr: yes
11:57 PM rue_mohr: you would not believe how long it took for him to realize '\0' and '\e'
11:58 PM rue_mohr: but as this goes along, the authors C gets WAY better
11:58 PM Tom_L: what's \e ?
11:58 PM rue_mohr: escape
11:58 PM Tom_L: mm
11:58 PM rue_mohr: #define ANSI_Cls "\e[2J"
11:58 PM rue_mohr: #define ANSI_Home "\e[H"
11:58 PM rue_mohr: .
