[09:56] <JonathanD> Morning.
[10:28] <InHisName> morning
[10:29] <InHisName> 3 mornings yesterday and one comment + 2 morintings today with waltman due soon. we're over due for long discussions.
[10:38] <rmg51> so start talking
[10:39] <rmg51> and while you do that I'll go eat breakfast :-D
[10:40] <InHisName> I got error in updating, something failed.   But then all 71 items seemed to be done updating and no new ones left.  Strange.  Comments anyone?
[11:53] <waltman> *YAWN*
[14:07] <InHisName> that's your good morning or comment to above, waltman ?
[15:34] <MutantTurkey> is there a good application to manipulate large xml tables with and run queries and such?
[15:34] <jedijf> grep
[15:34] <jedijf> lol
[15:35] <MutantTurkey> I don't think it's going to cut it
[15:35] <MutantTurkey> it's really a problem suited towards a actual xml library
[15:35] <jedijf> shhh i have to see whose doing this cover
[15:36] <MutantTurkey> ?
[15:36] <MutantTurkey> can I split a file based on a delmiter?
[15:37] <jedijf> cut
[15:37] <jedijf> yes
[15:37] <jedijf> grep and cut together are surgeon's tools
[15:42] <MutantTurkey> yeah
[15:42] <MutantTurkey> I think xquery might work better :-
[15:42] <MutantTurkey> )
[16:48] <MutantTurkey> herm
[16:48] <MutantTurkey> I suck at text manipulation in general
[16:48] <MutantTurkey> I guess I should use sed or awk though
[16:58] <waltman> No, you should be using perl.
[16:58] <waltman> Or maybe python or ruby. I don't judge.
[17:00] <waltman> xml isn't a regular language, so you can't use regular expressions (e.g. in grep) to parse it.
[17:02] <MutantTurkey> eh sort of different use case now
[17:02] <MutantTurkey> I am working within xml
[17:02] <MutantTurkey> but it's not the xml that needs manipulating
[17:06] <InHisName> so you wanna minuplate the comments to see who notices ?,  heh MutantTurkey
[17:09] <MutantTurkey> err
[17:09] <MutantTurkey> actually I am trying to use sed to replace some strings but I suck at it
[17:10] <MutantTurkey> basically I need to make http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?go=Go&search=Image:* turn into http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?go=Go&search=view-image:*=1;2
[17:10] <PennBot> Title: Image:* - Search results - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)
[17:10] <MutantTurkey> wat.
[17:10] <MutantTurkey> no idea what just happened...
[17:10] <MutantTurkey> my irc client has autoreplace for wiki? wow
[17:11] <MutantTurkey> basically I need to make [[Image:*]] turn into [[view-image:*=1;2]]
[17:11] <MutantTurkey> there we go
[17:17] <waltman> MutantTurkey: Is this inside a shell script?
[17:20] <MutantTurkey> no
[17:20] <MutantTurkey> should it be?
[17:21] <waltman> Not necessarily.
[17:21] <MutantTurkey> definitely not
[17:48] <ChinnoDog> gobble
