I don't code in that font, but I thought it was funny http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

ADM - well, on the PC I highly prefer and suggest ConText Programmer's Editor - http://www.context.cx/ - it's much, much more robust and better language support. Give it a try!

I haven't found a Mac rival yet, maybe BBEdit but I don't wanna buy it. For now Taco works.

Are the colours normally that funky in Mac scripting programs?

Phait
03-15-2005, 04:02 AM
No, you can set your own colors. I generally keep the PHP colors close to the original source code render colors.

Ahh the stench of elitism. Why don't you offer the guy some CONSTRUCTIVE feedback then.

I doubt nothing you've ever written couldn't be picked apart by an armchair coder.

Sure. "Format your code sensibly before claiming it's beautiful."

I wouldn't go claiming my earlier code is pretty so this wouldn't be an issue.

Phait
03-15-2005, 09:55 PM
But you DID miss the point. I was not claiming my coding style was beautiful, but the sillyness of the font use.

I've just repeated myself, why did I need to?

Oh for shit's sake, Phait, grow a ***** brain. He said your code looked like ass. Obviously he got the point of your post, so stop acting like it's a goddamned argument you have to win.

I'm the one needing a brain? Is everything I'm saying here going over a couple people's heads?

TerminX believes I was claiming my coding style was beautiful, I corrected him, and he still says this is what I claimed.

Ironically, seems like that's the same requirement all of your posts must meet before you hit submit. On the bright side, at least your posts are so consistently devoid of value I won't feel like I'm missing anything when I put you on ignore, which I will do shortly after making this post. And just think, then you won't be able to send me any more PMs that roughly translate to "durr! I'm whining because I can't read!"

Speaking of that, since neither of you can seem to comprehend my posts any better than phait can format code and because both of you obviously need things explained in their entirety as one would explain them to a child:

I got the point of the thread. Code in a pretty font, very funny. HOWEVER, the code is formatted as if someone decided having a seizure was more important than hitting enter and tab a few times, detracting from any amusement the thread could have provided.

Funny how Usurper didn't have any problems with the meaning of my posts. Must be that whole "educated, intelligent individual" thing he has going for him.

Actually you told phait that...

"It's not obvious because that's not what I said or what I meant. "

I was obviously referring to what you meant about your statement.

I KNEW you were talking about how badly the coding style was. You stated that's not what you meant or thats not what you said. Then you contradict yourself by saying exactly what you said the first time.

Sure, reading on a message board can show ones' intelligence and amount of education. It can also show how one tends to post, being a complete ass[/i]hole.

Are you honestly missing his point, or is what you're doing just more sinister than that- you know, like weaseling around his fairly obvious statement to detract from what he's trying to say? I'm amused at how often this occurs. Seek some dirt to throw at someone you hate, come up with a spiteful thing to say that goes along with the dirt, then try to back up the spite afterward with logic. Maybe my idea of how the scientific method should work is wrong. I always thought you were supposed to draw the conclusion based on the observations you found beforehand, not contort and/or make up observations to better define a pre-drawn conclusion of spite.

Oh, and I've already predicted your argument and I find that it won't be worth replying to.

What it comes down to is a very slight difference between what TerminX said and what you're reading. He didn't say you claimed your coding style was beautiful. He knows when you called your code beautiful that you were referring to the font style used. His point was/is the style of formatting you use in coding detracts from the beauty of the font used. In other words, an ugly subject was painted in a beautiful medium.

This is what I gather from his posts. I'm not 100% certain I'm right.

John
03-18-2005, 11:58 PM
Well I knew that. That's the first thing I picked up from what TX said.

But then TX went and said "that's not what i meant", which is why I asked what he meant by THAT statement.

That's what I first did when I saw your reply. No "hehe, the actual code is ugly, tough" or any joke about it. How do you expect people to react to this?


There's nothing beautiful about the actual code. In fact, I'd say the coding style itself is rather horrid..



Which plainly translates to "I think the joke is lame. It's not funny and furthermore you deserve to be bashed about your coding style". I didn't like it either (nor the joke nor the code :P), but if that's all you have to say about it don't say anything. You've seen the reactions.

I figure Roger's going to write another ongoing yet invalid paragraph about how I obviously don't get why I'm agreeing to this.

(But really, it's ok. I understand where Terminx is coming from. I know that he has to seem cool and popular on a gaming forum for the lack of popularity around him.)

I looked at this thread due to the high number of replies.

It's funny how one comment (by TX) can set people so a fire with misunderstanding and accusation.

Context looks pretty similar to the program I'm using to
to edit Max Payne 2 script files and develop QuietSky HTML now, Crimson Editor (http://www.crimsoneditor.com).

I've found that program very good, you can even add custom file extension filters (I added .bas for BASIC source files for example) and costum syntaxes for new languages. Also has tabbed viewing like Context. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
