serialisation lib

L244[21:21:43] <Izaya> but you can turn

file:read("*a")L252[21:24:32] <Izaya> you unserialise

don't know where this window decoration style came from but I
rather like the borders https://social.shadowkat.net/media/e07222b06a1901cbde72386a1b48a4d46f7f9bf2b859f231134e2e12478f843f.png
L288[22:19:28] *
CompanionCube would randomly guess NeXT or Motif.
L289[22:20:01] <Izaya> It's called
"Gtk" but it looks CDE
L290[22:20:42] <Izaya> only downside is
that the title bars are pretty big
L291[22:20:51] <CompanionCube> doesn't
really look 'CDE' to me
L292[22:21:03] <Izaya> but it's still
better than most CSD programs so ???
L293[22:21:03] <CompanionCube> CDE was
motif, it didn't do the whole 'flat' thing
L294[22:21:35] <Izaya> yeah but the flat
thing is unrelated to the window decorations
L295[22:22:20] <Izaya> oh wait there's no
actual window contents
L296[22:22:23] <Izaya> never mind was
looking at a thing
L297[22:22:24] <CompanionCube> https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ae/CDE_Application_Builder.png
L298[22:22:32] <Izaya> with a different
theme there's a lot more 3D effects
L299[22:22:38] <Izaya> colour scheme that
is
L300[22:22:42] <CompanionCube> yeah i'm
going with 'motif' for the borders
L301[22:22:51] *
Izaya nods
L302[22:23:07] <Izaya> I nuked my home
folder and re-did all my setup and noticed that one just then
though
L303[22:23:09] <CompanionCube> probably
could do it better by running actual mwm
L304[22:23:17] <Izaya> must've been
recently added to XFCE or something
L305[22:23:25] <CompanionCube> which still
exists
L306[22:23:38] <Izaya> yeah but most of
CDE is a pain to get running on Linux
L307[22:23:42] <Izaya> you're better off
with fvwm2
L308[22:25:34] <CompanionCube> I wonder if
GTK1 or something had it
L309[22:26:00] <CompanionCube> Izaya:
also, never use onetab on firefox for android
L310[22:26:02] <CompanionCube> just
don't.
L311[22:27:10] <Izaya> also,
semi-unrelated, but thoughts on libcurl but OC?
L312[22:27:49] <CompanionCube> good
idea
L313[22:27:50] <Izaya> I want a library I
can use to download an arbitrary URL, and I figure a library that
can handle stuff using plugins is probably a good way to do
that
L314[22:29:01] <CompanionCube> (as to the
why: it only saves *a few* of the tabs, but closes them all - even
the non-incognito ones when uses from an incognito tab!)
L315[22:29:25] <CompanionCube> 0/10, left
bad review on AMO
L316[22:29:31] <Izaya> What is this onetab
business actually meant to do
L317[22:29:54] <CompanionCube> Izaya:
click button -> turns your open tabs into a nice list instead of
actual tabs.
