@movq@www.uninformativ.de No argument that threading is an improvement. But I think (#hash) does that, and I think figuring out how to search should mostly be up to the client.

I don’t have any issue with the (foo) subjects, it’s the proliferation of the (foo url) tags. They’re just too long and ugly.

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk “@niplav (#4qeibma) Hadn’t heard of this; thanks for the tip! Been getting lost in your text reviews; the Benatar piece piqued my interest: I’d been reading a critique of his earlier work – in Overall’s Why Have Children? – that really wasn’t up to scratch. Now I’m reading about pure replicators, which is a new concept, to me. :-)” -> Nice :-) Looking over my text reviews, they’re not quite finished (especially the Benatar one), so take it with a grain of salt

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve just never had it be a rewarding experience.

@prologic@twtxt.net yep. it actually extracts everything at parse time. like mentions/tags/links/media. so they can be accessed and manipulated without additional parsing. it can then be output as MarkDown

@prologic@twtxt.net as promised! https://github.com/JonLundy/twtxt/blob/xuu/integrate-lextwt/types/lextwt/lextwt_test.go#

the lexer is nearing completion.. the tough part left is rooting out all the formatting code.

@oevl@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net (#) for the most part a subject is just the content in the perens. Usually it’s a tag. It appears near the start after any mentions. It can also contain text like (re: subjects)

@prologic@twtxt.net Txtnish adds a 28 character timestamp to the message, so in Bash: tweet=tail -1 the current twtxt.txt file and then pipe echo body=${tweet:28} to twt.

@prologic@twtxt.net (#keh22ka) maybe a custom linking method on a pod level? like can pass a template that gets translated. ex https://{domain}/wiki/{nick}/{tag} + !somepage -> https://sour.is/wiki/xuu/somepage

@prologic@twtxt.net do you have any info on how the ‘!’ tags are supposed to work? are they just a different kind of hash tag?

@prologic@twtxt.net I have some ideas to improve on twtxt. figure I can contribute some. 😁 bit more work and it will almost be a drop in replacement for ParseFile

Kinda wish types.Twt was an interface. it’s sooo close.

@xuu@txt.sour.is Not too happy with WKD’s use of CNAME over SRV for discovery of openpgpkey.. That breaks using SNI pretty quick. I suppose it was setup as a temporary workaround anyhow in the RFC..

i just realized i have no idea how to tag/mention someone else on this thing. i tried but i don’t think it worked?

@prologic@twtxt.net (#https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tsvhqdq OK. Im upgrading my tools. twtxt works pretty well inside an Emacs shell window…

and then ignore it “notmuch search not tag:unsubscribe and date:yesterday..”

tag anything with the word “unsubscribe” by “notmuch tag +unsubscribe unsubscribe”

in the original twtxt your URL is your identity. No need for anyone outside your control to do account managment. One reason I’ll likely be sticking with command line. But, great work

FWIW, I put up a quick blog last night about using twtxt command line https://eludom.github.io/blog/hello_twtxt/

What flavor or regexp? I tried here https://regexr.com/ with both PCRE and JavaScript and neither seems quite right. I’m relatively good with regexps, but they tend to be write-only :-/

yes. I read that. Nice post. Brave browser at least has trouble with formatting. The regexp got lost when renederd. Eww (emacs text browser) doees just fine with it :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.

as the person who motivated CompuServe’s USENET gateway https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1994-10-07-9410070309-story.html I’ve see what happens when the unwashed masses are turned loose in techie playgrounds

One very real problem to be aware of is “Eternal September” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September

one problme I’m seeing already is that the “micro” part is loosing out. Things are routinely getting longer than 140 characters

@prologic@twtxt.net I will probably stick with command line client just to make sure it keeps working

@prologic@twtxt.net and the fact that I just used /bin/ed to fix spelling before pushing :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net also the lack of a login and complete decntralization is a big win.

@prologic@twtxt.net twtxt is so simple one could read with netcat, cat and tail. I like that.

@prologic@twtxt.net For now I think I will stay with primitave tools.

@lyxal@twtxt.net My thoughts exactly! :-D

parsing expression grammars coming in real clutch right now. punctuation can now exist after wiki reference tags. Thanks !janet!

I’ve been actually thinking about introducing a ‘#+RELAX’ tag in !worgle that would explicity turn off strict mode, allowing literate programs to be written more casually.

a new fix to !weewiki will ignore all org-mode command strings by default. Now things like PROPERTY tags won’t show up in the output.
