jjf28 -- FaRTy1billion
FaRTy1billion shouted: Vrael no, the correct answer is \n with no \r
qft
[2018-7-13. : 6:06 pm]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: FaRTy1billion The correct answer is spaces.
no, the correct answer is \n with no \r
[2018-7-13. : 2:21 pm]
Pr0nogo -- y
[2018-7-13. : 2:06 pm]
Vrael -- FaRTy1billion
FaRTy1billion shouted: Dem0n Mini Moose 2707
The correct answer is spaces.
[2018-7-13. : 6:07 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- ya, he didn't say cuddly xor fluffy
[2018-7-13. : 5:39 am]
NudeRaider -- jjf28
jjf28 shouted: NudeRaider I don't think those qualities are mutually exclusive
ya I meant if it's any of those he should have a go.
[2018-7-13. : 3:48 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0n
Dem0n shouted: why is this conversation still going
Mini Moose 2707
Mini Moose 2707 shouted: TBH, \r and \n the new tabs vs spaces
[2018-7-13. : 3:30 am]
Dem0n -- why is this conversation still going
[2018-7-13. : 1:21 am]
Lanthanide -- so in a grid system, \n lets you write at the end of a line
[2018-7-13. : 1:20 am]
Lanthanide -- hence to achieve new line in a fixed grid system, you need both \r and \n
[2018-7-13. : 1:20 am]
Lanthanide -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Lanthanide how does \n let you write at the end of a line? Also that's not what you said here. Lanthanide Tbh I give up trying to understand your theories about how things might once worked. Irrelevant today anyways.
a device that operates with \n is treating your input as normal writing. a device that operates with \r\n is treating your input as characters on a fixed grid

Suicidal Insanity -- jjf28
jjf28 shouted: NudeRaider I don't think those qualities are mutually exclusive
Bingo
[2018-7-12. : 10:14 pm]
jjf28 -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Suicidal Insanity depends, are they cuddly or fluffy?
I don't think those qualities are mutually exclusive
[2018-7-12. : 10:09 pm]
NudeRaider -- Suicidal Insanity
Suicidal Insanity shouted: So I should spend the next week making Unicode ascii cheetah art?
depends, are they cuddly or fluffy?
[2018-7-12. : 9:16 pm]
Moose -- Ya
[2018-7-12. : 9:06 pm]
Suicidal Insanity -- So I should spend the next week making Unicode ascii cheetah art?
[2018-7-12. : 8:51 pm]
Moose -- Merge your interests into cute unicode cheetahs
[2018-7-12. : 8:49 pm]
Suicidal Insanity -- Ya, well, priorities .... cute cuddly fluffy cheetahs, or double check my Unicode changes. That isn't a hard question :P
[2018-7-12. : 8:48 pm]
Vrael -- I AM BATMAN
[2018-7-12. : 8:46 pm]
jjf28 -- SI retiring to become a traveling animal photographer :O
[2018-7-12. : 8:20 pm]
Suicidal Insanity -- Cheetahs are distracting me from scmdraft ;D
[2018-7-12. : 8:15 pm]
Pr0nogo -- ya
[2018-7-12. : 7:51 pm]
Moose -- On a typewriter (monospaced) with point at line 20 character 40, \n would send point to line 21 column 40, \r would send point to line 20 column 0, and \r\n (or \n\r) would send point to line 21 column 0.
[2018-7-12. : 6:13 pm]
NudeRaider -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: NudeRaider let you type stuff at the end of a line without having to put in lots of empty characters or press the right-arrow key; let you go back to the start of a line and overwrite text you've already entered; both together lets you type from the beginning of a line
how does \n let you write at the end of a line? Also that's not what you said here. Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: \n is treating output like normal writing - you start the beginning of the next line, whereas \r\n is treating the output like a position grid of text
Tbh I give up trying to understand your theories about how things might once worked. Irrelevant today anyways.
[2018-7-12. : 7:58 am]
Lanthanide -- end is not the same as \n
[2018-7-12. : 7:35 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: NudeRaider let you type stuff at the end of a line without having to put in lots of empty characters or press the right-arrow key; let you go back to the start of a line and overwrite text you've already entered; both together lets you type from the beginning of a line
that's what home and end are for
[2018-7-12. : 7:20 am]
Lanthanide -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Lanthanide what things?
let you type stuff at the end of a line without having to put in lots of empty characters or press the right-arrow key; let you go back to the start of a line and overwrite text you've already entered; both together lets you type from the beginning of a line

Pr0nogo -- no, it's what i use to talk to women
[2018-7-12. : 5:41 am]
NudeRaider -- Pr0nogo
Pr0nogo shouted: it's called my FIST
Freedom Inclination Self Treatment?

[2018-7-12. : 5:33 am]
NudeRaider -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: those actions all let you do different things
what things?
[2018-7-12. : 1:16 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- "text mode" meaning fopen(w/e, "t")
[2018-7-12. : 1:15 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- also, Mini Moose 2707
Mini Moose 2707 shouted: I've heard of \r\r\n :sick:
sounds like somebody opened a file in text mode and then used \r\n anyway
[2018-7-12. : 1:15 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: jjf28 I personally use \n only. Because screw windows
even in windows \n is all you need, because opening a file in text mode will automatically convert \n to \r\n (which is why I think \r\n is dumb)
[2018-7-12. : 1:14 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: FaRTy1billion that's 'cause the "invisible" characters are used on the unit names, and staredit reads the whole string and puts them into the appropriate menu
that's incorrect. Unit names and groupings are separated by null characters. SC just reads the first one, StarEdit reads subsequent strings after the name
[2018-7-11. : 10:38 pm]
jjf28 -- KrayZee
KrayZee shouted: jjf28 no

[2018-7-11. : 9:06 pm]
Lanthanide -- those actions all let you do different things
[2018-7-11. : 9:06 pm]
Lanthanide -- and a key you can press that does both \n and \r together
[2018-7-11. : 9:06 pm]
Lanthanide -- then you have a key that you can press that does \n and another key you can press that does \r
[2018-7-11. : 9:06 pm]
Lanthanide -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Lanthanide okay but if there's already every possible character on screen accounted for, what's the point of inserting a new line? Are you saying that /r/n is a move cursor down and to the beginning of the line in such a terminal?
you start typing on the left and characters naturally result in the cursor shifting to the right after each keypress (otherwise you'd just be writing characters on top of each other in the same cell, which is pointless)
[2018-7-11. : 8:38 pm]
Suicidal Insanity -- reminds me of an OS I seldom use :P
[2018-7-11. : 7:52 pm]
Suicidal Insanity -- NudeRaider

I love this dedication to compatibility and user friendlyness

forward slash? smh
[2018-7-11. : 11:18 am]
NudeRaider -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: if it stores a screen worth of data as a grid
okay but if there's already every possible character on screen accounted for, what's the point of inserting a new line? Are you saying that /r/n is a move cursor down and to the beginning of the line in such a terminal?
[2018-7-11. : 8:36 am]
Lanthanide -- so all the menu stuff is written after the "invisible" character
[2018-7-11. : 8:36 am]
Lanthanide -- FaRTy1billion
FaRTy1billion shouted: also interestingly, the "invisible" characters just stop the writing function from writing any more characters, but do not stop the function that calculates the string's width
that's 'cause the "invisible" characters are used on the unit names, and staredit reads the whole string and puts them into the appropriate menu
[2018-7-11. : 8:34 am]
Lanthanide -- then it's entirely possible to edit later characters in a row without editing earlier characters
[2018-7-11. : 8:34 am]
Lanthanide -- if it stores a screen worth of data as a grid
[2018-7-11. : 8:34 am]
Lanthanide -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Lanthanide that terminal needs to have memory or it wouldn't display anything for longer than a display frame / processing cycle.
yes: Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: \r\n makes sense if you have fixed width displays that are always 80 characters (or whatever other fixed number), but otherwise doesn't make any sense
[2018-7-11. : 6:32 am]
NudeRaider -- Lanthanide
Lanthanide shouted: NudeRaider you're assuming that the data is being written to memory. It may just be displayed on the terminal, until an action occurs that writes it to memory (perhaps a "page down" key press), at which point the text shown on the screen is serialised to memory/disk
that terminal needs to have memory or it wouldn't display anything for longer than a display frame / processing cycle.
[2018-7-11. : 4:22 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- also interestingly, the "invisible" characters just stop the writing function from writing any more characters, but do not stop the function that calculates the string's width
[2018-7-11. : 4:21 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- it's just weird that they treat it as a special character
[2018-7-11. : 4:21 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- oh cool, that makes sense
[2018-7-11. : 3:57 am]
DarkenedFantasies -- <1A> is either End-of-File or Substitute character. To the best of my knowledge, it has no uses in SC other than appearing as a zero-width character in-game.
[2018-7-11. : 1:41 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- it's also documented as being the default blue color, however from what I've seen it does not have any color assigned to it
[2018-7-11. : 1:39 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- but what I was talking about was in SC \x1a breaks up words like spaces, tabs, \n's, \r's, etc. and breaks out of loops and stuff in the same places as either \n or \r
[2018-7-11. : 1:38 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- but in notepad if you open a file that does not have either \r or \n, then all of the newlines are zero-width spaces which is fucking dumb
[2018-7-11. : 1:38 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- which is stupid, should just be \n
[2018-7-11. : 1:37 am]
O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like opening a file as a text file will turn \n in to \r\n or read \r\n as just \n
