| superfly | magespawn: Quassel has a "monolithic" version as well, which is everything in one | 06:41 |

| Kilos | hiya maiatoday jr | 07:57 |
| Kilos | jrgns, | 07:57 |
| jrgns | hi all, Kilos, bye all, Kilos! | 07:57 |
| Kilos | hi Zarw | 07:57 |
| Kilos | who are you? | 07:58 |
| * staticrat waves hello | 08:04 | |
| Kilos | hi staticrat | 08:04 |
| staticrat | hello kilos, everyone else :) | 08:05 |
| staticrat | so it seems that ubuntu fever has set in. I downloaded a app on my phone that teaches you to use the terminal | 08:06 |
| staticrat | and I found this command "webster" that I think would be handy | 08:07 |
| staticrat | but it not working :( | 08:07 |
| staticrat | tried sudo aptitude install webster .....but says that there is no such package | 08:08 |
| staticrat | anyone here know how to get the webster command to work? | 08:08 |
| === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za | ||
| Kilos | hi Trixar_za | 08:21 |
| Trixar_za | webster? | 08:21 |
| Trixar_za | Never heard of it | 08:21 |
| Trixar_za | What does it do? | 08:21 |
| staticrat | i know been looking on the net for it cant find it | 08:21 |
| staticrat | online dictionary from terminal | 08:22 |
| Trixar_za | Sounds like a scripted utility | 08:22 |
| staticrat | think the app I have where I got this might be dealing with a older version of ubuntu | 08:22 |
| Trixar_za | Doesn't Ubuntu have an app for it? | 08:22 |
| Kilos | http://voices.yahoo.com/how-add-dictionary-tool-ubuntu-4867690.html | 08:22 |
| staticrat | I saw that kilos | 08:22 |
| staticrat | was curious about the webster command | 08:23 |
| Kilos | if you look in synaptic there are lotsa dict options | 08:23 |
| Trixar_za | Let me google a bit | 08:23 |
| Kilos | never seen it | 08:23 |
| Trixar_za | I'm pretty sure it's a shell or perl script | 08:23 |
| staticrat | according to this app you type webster word (word being the one you want to define) and it should return the definitions | 08:25 |
| Trixar_za | Nope, no debian package for it using content search | 08:32 |
| Trixar_za | Well, there is two 'matches', but it's for scripts/extensions to existing programs | 08:32 |
| Trixar_za | surfraw and epic4 in case you're wondering | 08:32 |
| staticrat | thx Trixar_za .... wonder where this guy got the command from then or should I then ask how reliable his app is in terms of ubuntu command | 08:33 |
| Trixar_za | And yeah, surfraw is a terminal interface for several search engines | 08:33 |
| Trixar_za | Searching Ubuntu brings up the same ones | 08:34 |
| Trixar_za | surfraw or sdcv is probably the closest you're going to get | 08:36 |
| Trixar_za | lol | 08:38 |
| Trixar_za | http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/T/TE/TERJE/webster-2.19_2007.0205 | 08:38 |
| Trixar_za | found it | 08:38 |
| Trixar_za | It's a perl script | 08:38 |
| Trixar_za | There's also this one: http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/Z/ZH/ZHOUXIN/mw2.2.1 | 08:39 |
| Trixar_za | http://www.cpan.org/scripts/ + searching for "webster" ftw | 08:39 |
| maiatoday | Hi Kilos | 08:41 |
| staticrat | cool thx Trixar_za | 08:49 |
| tonberryE352 | ok so with all the auto disable java stuff going on at the moment how exactly do you get java working in a browser? | 08:52 |
| tonberryE352 | and now it magically worked... | 08:52 |
| tonberryE352 | never mind then | 08:52 |
| === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za | ||
| magespawn | Trix[a]r_za: i had a look at the 2nd one you posted in the 4 or 5 th line of the script where the host is listed is it possible to have more than one? | 11:23 |
| magespawn | superfly http://xkcd.com/353/ | 12:07 |
| superfly | magespawn: indeed | 12:11 |
| * magespawn spends lunch time doing meaningful things like readin xkcd | 12:24 | |

| === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za | ||
| Trixar_za | magespawn: Probably, but you'd probably have to modify the syntax engine a bit to work with the different sites | 15:20 |
| Trixar_za | I don't use perl that often, so you'd have to ask in #perl (also good luck :P) | 15:20 |
| magespawn | ty Trixar_za was just wondering, i know nothing about perl | 15:35 |
| tumbleweed | Maaz_: define ubuntu | 15:36 |
| Maaz_ | tumbleweed: I don't have a definition for that. Is it even a word? | 15:36 |
| tumbleweed | aww | 15:36 |
| tumbleweed | Maaz_: define fish | 15:36 |
| Maaz_ | tumbleweed: Crawfish \Craw"fish`\ (kr[add]"f[i^]sh`), Crayfish \Cray"fish`\ (kr[=a]"f[i^]sh`), n.; pl. {-fishes} or {-fish}. [Corrupted fr. OE. crevis, creves, OF. crevice, F. ['e]crevisse, fr. OHG. krebiz crab, G. krebs. See {Crab}. The ending -fish arose from confusion with E. fish.] (Zool.) Any decapod crustacean of the family {Astacid[ae]} (genera {Cambarus} | 15:36 |
| Maaz_ | and {Cambarus}), resembling the lobster, but smaller, and found in fresh waters. Crawfishe… | 15:36 |
| tumbleweed | ^ perfectly good dictionary | 15:36 |
| magespawn | not really a fish | 15:38 |
