17:30: * Phlamethrower slaps computer for crashing
17:34: * Phlamethrower wonders what stuff chox will pr0t next
17:53: +++ aardvark has joined chat
17:53: aardvark> moo
17:53: Phlamethrower> lo 'ard
17:54: aardvark> what do you want chox to pr0t next?
17:54: Phlamethrower> dunno
17:56: * aardvark considers releasing cdparanoia 0.061
17:57: * Phlamethrower considers asking aardvark what cdparanoia is
17:57: aardvark> it extracts audio tracks from CDs
17:58: aardvark> with error correction
17:59: Phlamethrower> ah
18:00: aardvark> it's a unix pr0t
18:01: * aardvark should finish his nethack port sometime
18:02: * Phlamethrower should get his nethack port to work
18:02: Phlamethrower> I wonder if chox's port will use x11...
18:02: * aardvark is vaguely attempting to put a RISC OS frontend on it
18:03: Phlamethrower> I'm vaguely attempting to compile it
18:03: aardvark> been there, done that
18:03: Phlamethrower> I think I've got it sorted out, just haven't got round to trying it yet
18:04: Phlamethrower> Then I'll need to fiddle round getting TTY working
18:04: aardvark> yeah, before i used chox's ncurses port, but this time i'm going to try and put a RISC OS frontend on it... dunno how hard it'll be, the only trouble is i need regex stuff which i've not got yet
18:05: Phlamethrower> I've taken a look at the nethack interface thing and it's quite scary - there are about 40 complex functions, not all of which are explained fully
18:08: Phlamethrower> I've made a BBC font file containing the IBM graphics chars if that's any help
18:08: aardvark> well, if i'm going to do a GUI version, it'll use the nice tiles like you get in the Win32/QT versions
18:09: Phlamethrower> bleh! tiles are ugly! it makes it too hard to tell what's what. Instead of 'd' for dog and 'f' for feline, it's 'funny blob #1' for dog and 'funny blob #2' for feline
18:10: aardvark> i like tiles so there
18:10: * aardvark thinks he broke the frontpage on his website
18:11: Phlamethrower> Well as long as the user can replace them with their own I'm not bothered
18:14: * Phlamethrower is off now
18:15: Phlamethrower> bye
18:15: aardvark> ok, cya
