Perl. Lots of nice, clean, readable, pretty perl. Starting to be forced to use python by a couple of programs we use - writing plugins for them mostly. Going from one to the other is kind of like going from a big city where you can just do whatever you want to a really small town where you have to drive a ways to get to anything interesting, and the police are so strict that you have to drive exactly how they say or you can’t go anywhere. Not everyone wants or needs to drive the same exact car at the same exact speed. Tan minivans for all, please import the one radio model available if you need one.

Also javascript and php for private projects.

link to article is OK but the link to the #comments URL has an extraneous “/” prepended that triggers URL encoding and consequently 404 result…

would cut and paste but will have to wait until iPhone 2.0 for that (hope so!)

keyboard entry not so bad even with my fat fingers (way better than any other cell phone I’ve ever owned and superior to tiny Blackberry keyboards I’ve tries using)…

Heh, so it does identify it as Safari on OSX. Interestng.

also, email link back to post is resulting in 404

Wait, what? Which email link? You mean the link in the email notification?

Can you paste in the URL you got from the email? I want to fix it, but it seems to be working for me.

Well, the code is all done now and I’m busily doing documentation stuff, so I think the boat has left on making changes (and I’d really hate to break it at this stage ) but thanks anyway

I think the problem is going from a generated value to picking out the line on the form with that number and doing stuff to it. Apparently VB has some fancy way of controlling multiple objects together (so you tell it that “2″ means to turn on/off lines to make a 2 shape, then just tell it to make a group of lines into a 2… maybe) but my way already happened… so, yeah

LOL! Good thing i didnt reply to this on my iPhone!

Actually, I wish you did. I wonder how this plugin would pick it up. How does the iPhone identify itself? Anyone knows? Does it actually say iPhone or does it display the name of whatever underlying kernel they are using in it?
