[09:53] Morning [09:56] Morning. [10:28] morning [10:29] 3 mornings yesterday and one comment + 2 morintings today with waltman due soon. we're over due for long discussions. [10:38] so start talking [10:39] and while you do that I'll go eat breakfast :-D [10:40] 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] *YAWN* [14:07] that's your good morning or comment to above, waltman ? [15:34] is there a good application to manipulate large xml tables with and run queries and such? [15:34] grep [15:34] lol [15:35] I don't think it's going to cut it [15:35] it's really a problem suited towards a actual xml library [15:35] shhh i have to see whose doing this cover [15:36] ? [15:36] can I split a file based on a delmiter? [15:37] cut [15:37] yes [15:37] grep and cut together are surgeon's tools [15:42] yeah [15:42] I think xquery might work better :- [15:42] ) [16:48] herm [16:48] I suck at text manipulation in general [16:48] I guess I should use sed or awk though [16:58] No, you should be using perl. [16:58] Or maybe python or ruby. I don't judge. [17:00] xml isn't a regular language, so you can't use regular expressions (e.g. in grep) to parse it. [17:02] eh sort of different use case now [17:02] I am working within xml [17:02] but it's not the xml that needs manipulating [17:06] so you wanna minuplate the comments to see who notices ?, heh MutantTurkey [17:09] err [17:09] actually I am trying to use sed to replace some strings but I suck at it [17:10] 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] Title: Image:* - Search results - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org) [17:10] wat. [17:10] no idea what just happened... [17:10] my irc client has autoreplace for wiki? wow [17:11] basically I need to make [[Image:*]] turn into [[view-image:*=1;2]] [17:11] there we go [17:17] MutantTurkey: Is this inside a shell script? [17:20] no [17:20] should it be? [17:21] Not necessarily. [17:21] definitely not [17:48] gobble [18:32] raAJGKASJLKDAJ NO PROGRESS AT ALL TODAY [18:32] WASTE OF TIME [20:22] Good bacon to all!
