Let's keep this all in one thread.

Also, please refrain from posting too many threads like this https://dis.4chan.org/read/prog/1378149103/1-40 on world4ch.

Report problems, make suggestions, request features here.

If I set up a fossil repository when I switch server, is that fine?

Okay, I was under the impression that FLOOD_LIMIT was IP based, but it isn't, it just stats the time of the last log file write and compares that to the current time.

Looks like I'll have to implement IP based rate limiting myself. Right now there's a global limit of 1 post per second. I'm surprised we ran into the 1 post per 10 seconds limit already.

FUCKING PERL WHAT THE FUCK PERL PERL PERL

Dear god. That sounds worse than Shiitchan's flood detection.

Yes, this software has some... issues. Mind you it's pretty amazing what the Tablecat guy has done with how restricted he chose to be in implementing this (no database, just a series of files and an index)... but some of the stuff makes me question his sanity, such as building the front page by parsing the HTML with regex, etc.

parsing the HTML with regex
What the hell, man!

Well, at least he gave us his software for free. Also, I like it how this software's quote doesn't add that superfluous extra newline.

Same. I think it's pretty neat in general. I'm not sure how well this implementation will scale over time, though. If we import the prog.db into this everything might just crash, I can't imagine how long it would take if I pressed "rebuild all threads" with over 20K threads in the folder.

I could probably write something in PHP in a day that would be equivalent to Shiitchan without being completely shit, but I really hate PHP at this point.

Better finish the Scheme FastCGI stuff quickly.

No, take it away.

Also, I am >>45 as well. I'm just not going to post with my cap code unless it's an announcement now. I'd say my writing style is recognizable enough, you should be able to figure it out.

I'll be working on the Scheme and FastCGI thing in the next few days to see if I can get a rudimentary textboard up in it. I've got a bit more work to do on the interpreter itself but I guess I'll just host it along with this one and I'll see what bugs are there and fix them.

I'm so in love with this BBS

textubord
That's how its called. Unless you are looking at something else.

Technically a simplified web forum

I kept feeling like something wasn't right, but couldn't place it. Then it hit me: there are only 10 threads on the front page instead of the standard 18. Please extend.

Do you hate PHP because of PHP4 and Wordpress? Just try a framework like Laravel and see if it's really so bad.

Please increase the padding of posts. They look really squashed.

I noticed that as well. I've remedied it now.

>>52
This isn't something I can fix without rewriting the whole HTML and CSS. The BBS renders differently on Webkit vs Gecko, so it might get fixed when I decide to switch to my own BBS.

>>51
I hate PHP because I hate PHP. Its implementation, the entire language, everything. A framework on top of a broken language isn't going to fix anything. The only plus the language has is convenience, but it's not an important factor here as I can actually program. As I've stated before, I'm working on finishing my Scheme BBS and we'll test it out soon.

You'd be surprised

Yeah, you'd be surprised at how it doesn't solve anything and introduces even more bugs and quirks.

No, no. I like it how everything is much more compact now. Please don't.

c'mon you could do your own userscripts for things like that!

You kidding me? It's all CSS only.

>>57
You don't even need userscripts, userstyles is enough.

BBCode tags won't work inside quotes.

> This is a {b]test[/b} shows up as malformed markup and it won't even let me post.

(I can't even post the actual tags because even when using {#}, I get the same error. I think it has to do with Tablecat not allowing you to post any BBCode failures. If I recall correctly, that feature is optional.)

I've turned it off. This software sure has a lot of quirks. We'll switch soon.

This is a [b]test[/b]
And it works now. Thank you.

Oh wait, it shows up fine in the Preview button, but it won't show up when I post it?

Well, I can wait for that switch, even if it takes another two decades. Shiitchan was worse in many ways, I'm fine with not using BBCode inside quotes.

I can probably fix it in the meantime, even though I hate Perl I can manage with it.

Just, not right now, it's late and I can't see straight. I'll end up breaking something.

It's okay, I don't mind.

I can't sage in the email field. Why can't we post our emails?

And why don't we have the option for signatures?
