hrmmm, having some trouble with split
00:21
< Yossarian>
probably from lack of sleep, I want to split and move the generated file, split -b 1K -a 4 chunk 00 | mv 00* /mnt/rd1
00:24
< Yossarian>
buttt doesn't quite work that way it seems, foggy brain
00:27
<&[R]>
split -b 1K -a 4 chunk 00; mv 00* /mnt/rd1
00:27
<&[R]>
But that seems stupidly pointless
00:27
<&[R]>
Do: split -b 1K -a 4 chunk /mnt/rd1/00
00:29
<&[R]>
That way it'll output directly to where you want
00:29
<&[R]>
Note the files will be named 00aaaa, 00aaab, 00aaac, etc...
00:57
< Yossarian>
takes a [FILE] for input according to groff or man or whatever
00:57
<&[R]>
Right, that's "chunk"
00:57
< Yossarian>
but does [FILE] typically also denote a
00:58
< Yossarian>
did I do an oopsie?
01:01
<&[R]>
That just means stdin is the default if you don't give a file name
01:02
<&[R]>
But you did, "chunk"
01:06
< Yossarian>
ah
01:07
< Yossarian>
I messed up the math for dd though in creating the files, there were supposed to be less and at 64K size
01:08
< Yossarian>
like, so I just have two 128MB tmpfs mounts I created from RAM and when I was thinking earlier like, problem with making a leap to coding on linux is not using the environment itself as a tool.

It offends my sensibilities that they synchronised on completion time, not run speed, so they all look like they're equally effective.
08:42
<~Vornicus>
I agree
08:45

I think best would be if the slow ones got a head start

Yossarian, hey. were you on Indymedia IRC?
10:58
<@sshine>
jeroud, I *cough* also write Perl at work.
11:01
<&jeroud>
sshine: But can it be read and understood by mortals?
11:50
<@sshine>
jeroud, I don't think I should be the judge of that. :-P

< Yossarian>
sshine: "I" might have been, but it wasn't me. Yossarian is the protagonist of the kafka-esque/burecratic/slapstick commedy anti-war? novel Catch-22
14:42
< Yossarian>
I should probably pick a new nickname or something. I learn then people were using more obscure names from William Gibson's Neuromancer, in particular I was suprised to see the nick or handle of Paulie McCoy being used. Wintermute and Armitage are givens. Hell, Armitage is the name of the Shadowrun character in the SNES version of the game.
14:42
<~Vornicus>
now that's a novel use of that formatting
14:42
< Yossarian>
Does it display like shit in your client, this?
14:43
< Yossarian>
I'll refrain from using it if that is the case.
14:43
< Yossarian>
somewhat better?
14:43
<~Vornicus>
It's reverse video, so it's very eyecatching
14:44
< Yossarian>
bold, reverse video, this should be italics like but doesn't show up for me
14:44
<~Vornicus>
italics does italics here
14:44
<~Vornicus>
underline?
14:44
< Yossarian>
Not on weechat version ehhh, but it might be an ssh issue
14:44
< Yossarian>
escape character + u ?
14:45
< Yossarian>
what's this one?
14:45
<~Vornicus>
I don't see anything for that at all
14:46
<~Vornicus>
Other formatting commands are color and clear formatting
14:46
< Yossarian>
Oh dear, I'll look into it later. Just have to use quotes like a LISPer uses parens ;P
14:46
< Yossarian>
And some bold.
14:49
<&ToxicFrog>
Yossarian: esc,U has no meaning in IRC; underline is \x1F UNIT SEPARATOR (aka ctrl-_)
14:49
< Yossarian>
hmm?
14:49
< Yossarian>
ah
14:50
<&ToxicFrog>
The default weechat binding for it is ^C,_
14:50
< Yossarian>
maybe
14:51
< Yossarian>
oh
14:51
< Yossarian>
matte screen and not enough nits of brightness, I
14:51
<&ToxicFrog>
And yeah your "hmm" showed up as underlined.
14:51
< Yossarian>
I missed the underline after the escape/control character
14:52
<&ToxicFrog>
The ^C doesn't go on the wire, it's an introducer for weechat's formatting mode.
14:53
< Yossarian>
yeah, I understand that, just my screen wasn't bright enough and I didn't see, I thought you meant ^C+, or ^C C
14:55
<&ToxicFrog>
As for italics -- weechat has supported italics for years, but (a) you need ncurses >= 5.9.20130831, which I think everyone should have by now, and (b) your terminal and font need to support italics, which is a lot more dicey
14:56
<&ToxicFrog>
(since a lot of monospace fonts don't have an italic mode and expect the renderer to emulate italics by skewing the characters, and a lot of terminals expect the font to have an italic mode and don't implement skewing)
14:56
< Yossarian>
I'm not totally useless, just that a majority of my education both personal and academic was done on Windows; Got to liking Linux at start at real university starting point and at the lab and such and then fell off and forgot many things. Monospace fonts (some) not having italics mode, think I've seen that.
15:01
<&ToxicFrog>
Oh yeah, and if you're running weechat inside screen or tmux, you have to make sure that screen/tmux actually believes that the tty supports italics; in my case the tty does but tmux thinks it doesn't, so italics get rendered as inverse video in the shell and not at all in weechat.
15:01
<&ToxicFrog>
And italics are used rarely enough on IRC that I haven't bothered to take the time to fix this.
15:02
< Yossarian>
Yeah, I still have some issues with my tmux locally like, need to increase the scrollback limit and I think I handle the fight for the clipboards pretty well.
15:02
< Yossarian>
So on [R]'s ssh server I simply use screen.

15:16
<&ToxicFrog>
Hrm. Ok, I have italics (and 24-bit colour) working in tmux now, but not in weechat...
15:16
<&ToxicFrog>
Maybe it needs to be restarted to pick up the new $TERM

24bit color in tmux is fun, went back to 256 to better work with csapprox for vim I guess
16:23
<&ToxicFrog>
Why would it cause problems with vim? Indexed colour modes should still work even when 24-bit available.
16:25
< Yossarian>
Well, I mean for compatibility purposes in general, figure 256 is the standard.
