[02:05] <waltman> even Terminal.app in OSX land supports that :)
[02:55] <ChinnoDog> :-p
[02:56] <ChinnoDog> Someone tell me why there are two libmozjs packages in Ubuntu with completely different looking version numbers
[02:56] <ChinnoDog> idk how I am supposed to know which one is the current one
[02:57] <pleia2> there aren't, you must have a ppa or something
[02:58] <pleia2> or do you mean 17 and 185?
[03:00] <pleia2> good question, I don't know :)
[03:02] <ChinnoDog> 17 and 185 is what I see
[03:02]  * ChinnoDog frowns
[03:05] <ChinnoDog> Accoring to the Spidermonkey page release 17 is the latest and it implements Javascript 1.8.5
[03:06] <ChinnoDog> So, I guess they are probably the same thing in different packages
[03:25] <ChinnoDog> ok, that is not working. I just want javascript support in elinks. :-(
[03:25] <jthan> ChinnoDog: breaking everything?
[03:27] <ChinnoDog> not yet
[03:27] <ChinnoDog> I can't figure out why elinks won't run with javascript enabled. It is not even on the config menu.
[03:39] <jthan> I don't know what to tell you
[03:44] <ChinnoDog> :-\
[03:54] <TheLordOfTime> i have no idea what you're talking about but perhaps its a compile-time config option that's not enabled?
[03:55] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, i would check the elinks documentation to see what the specifics are
[03:56] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, but if you give me their site i'll look for you
[04:00] <ChinnoDog> TheLordOfTime: it is compile time but I would expect it to be here. There is an elinks-lite package for people that only want a barebones installation. This is dumb.
[04:00] <ChinnoDog> And the docs are at http://elinks.or.cz/documentation/html/manual.html-chunked/ch01s06.html
[04:00] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, which OS?
[04:01] <TheLordOfTime> out of curiosity
[04:01] <ChinnoDog> Ubuntu, of course
[04:01] <TheLordOfTime> in Debian, line 52 of debian/rules:  --without-spidermonkey
[04:01] <TheLordOfTime> looks like they disable spidermonkey/javascript support
[04:01] <TheLordOfTime> (and Ubuntu probably has that in the rules file)
[04:01]  * TheLordOfTime cracks his knuckles and digs around in the ubuntu code
[04:02] <ChinnoDog> :-\
[04:02] <TheLordOfTime> L, P, Q, R, S, and T all have 0.12~pre5-blah
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> cept for S and T, they have ~pre6
[04:03] <ChinnoDog> TheLordOfTime: that is ok. I give up for now. I will have to rebuild the package for my own use.
[04:03]  * TheLordOfTime looks at T
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, unless there's license incompatibility..l
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> or no spidermonkey packages...
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> you could file a wishlist bug to enable it...
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> but note according to the elinks site it's a highly experimental feature
[04:03] <ChinnoDog> There is no license incompatibility and the spidermonkey is in the repositories.. twice!
[04:03] <TheLordOfTime> probably why it wasn't built in
[04:04] <ChinnoDog> I found someone else complaining about it online
[04:04] <TheLordOfTime> [2013/11/20 23:03:46] <TheLordOfTime> but note according to the elinks site it's a highly experimental feature
[04:04] <ChinnoDog> Another person noted it can be enabled in the compile but disabled in the options
[04:04] <TheLordOfTime> lines 64, 85 in the code for Ubuntu's version of the debian/control has both lite and full marked "without-spidermonkey"
[04:04] <TheLordOfTime> so...
[04:05] <ChinnoDog> grr
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, if you want i'll rebuild it and dump it in a PPA tomorrow...
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> but i'll need to know the spidermonkey version to include in the PPA too
[04:05] <ChinnoDog> no, I'll do it. I've done it before.
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> (so i can copy that in)
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> cool
[04:05] <ChinnoDog> I should start my own PPA for packages I've "fixed"
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, but now we know why it's not configurable for you... they disable it completely
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, i have multiple PPAs for that
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> each for the different programs.
[04:05] <TheLordOfTime> (including nginx, but that makes sense anyways)
[04:06] <ChinnoDog> k, will tackle that tomorrow.
[04:06] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, if you want you can file a bug in Debian about it, asking them to enable it
[04:06] <TheLordOfTime> and see what Debian's devs for it say
[04:07] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, oh wait i found it
[04:07] <TheLordOfTime> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=721198
[04:07] <TheLordOfTime> ChinnoDog, apparently it was requested and commented on and left to gather dust
[04:08] <TheLordOfTime> apparently even with the libraries a lot of the JS on sites didn't work or w/e
[04:09] <TheLordOfTime> hence it being disabled
[09:42] <JonathanD> Morning.
[10:16] <rmg51> Morning
[10:54] <JonathanD> Hi rmg51
[10:55] <rmg51> o/
[10:55] <JonathanD> Just back from breakfast.
[11:11] <rmg51> didn't get that far yet
[11:46]  * waltman yawns
[12:59] <teddy-dbear> Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys and everything else
[13:56] <ChinnoDog> TheLordOfTime: Well, that sucks since I only need it to work on one site right now. Maybe there is another javascript enabled text mode browser.
[14:43] <InHisName> anyone know about Nix and / or NixOS ?   I just put a vbox version on my vbox, looking to investigate it.
[14:55] <ChinnoDog> NixOS sounds like the most boring name ever
[14:55] <ChinnoDog> Zero creativity
[14:56] <ChinnoDog> TheLordOfTime: Looks like there aren't any other text mode browsers with javascript. I think I'm going to solve my problem in a different way.
[15:12] <ChinnoDog> I ran Chrome using X windows forwarding instead
[15:12] <ChinnoDog> Uses lots of memory but gets the job done reliably
[15:20] <ChinnoDog> From what I have seen in benchmarks other "lightweight" browsers use about the same amount of memory. If that were not true I would pick a skinnier one.
[16:23] <jthan> ChinnoDog: ping
[16:24] <ChinnoDog> hey
[16:24] <jthan> Do you use task warrior?
[16:25]  * jthan knows you don't 
[16:26] <ChinnoDog> nope
[16:26] <jthan> Well you better start.
[16:26] <ChinnoDog> mmm, no.
[16:27] <jthan> But we're going to write an app
[16:28] <ChinnoDog> You write it, I'll think about using it.
[16:28] <jthan> :-(
[16:28] <jthan> hater.
