| paddatrapper | morning inetpro, nsnzero | 06:29 |
| thatgraemeguy | morning all | 07:34 |
| chesedo | morning thatgraemeguy and all others | 07:39 |
| nsnzero | spent some time reading through c++ tutorials ... but spent even more time trying to get a perfect theme on geany ... | 08:19 |
| chesedo | nsnzero: so what have you tried/coded yet? | 08:23 |
| theblazehen | hi all | 08:26 |
| nsnzero | chesedo: just messing around with the tutorial stuff - basics but i can now i can edit geany and gtk2 themes to my preference | 08:34 |
| jerit | http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/tar.png | 08:44 |
| chesedo | hi theblazehen | 08:51 |
| theblazehen | jerit Is it just me, or are the tar commands not that bad? | 09:01 |
| jerit | theblazehen: hell if I know... I hardly use them | 09:02 |
| theblazehen | Ah | 09:02 |
| theblazehen | http://xkcd2.com/1168/ alt text as well | 09:02 |
| paddatrapper | theblazehen: they always make sense to me... | 09:15 |
| theblazehen | paddatrapper glad I'm not alone | 09:31 |
| paddatrapper | c for Create x for eXtract | 09:32 |
| theblazehen | Hell, `tar --help` | 09:36 |
| theblazehen | Even bsdtar has that | 09:36 |
| theblazehen | Ah. Wait. "Unix". Hmm. Dunno if they all have it, or exactly how are they counting *unix* | 09:37 |
| theblazehen | Ah wait. Rob's just a unix admin, but it _may_ not be a Unix system, but some other *nix or even Linux | 09:37 |
| nsnzero | i had to keep a small notebook to jot down all the arguments and examples of most linux commands | 09:45 |
| paddatrapper | I let maintainers and developers create mine - it's called man :) | 09:56 |
| paddatrapper | actually --help is more helpful usually... I just need the highlights | 09:57 |
| nsnzero | after 2 months using the terminal i had to get a bigger book .... | 10:00 |
| nsnzero | paddatrapper: i install lots of little cli programs - easy to forget they are there , so i make a little note of them in my book ... helps me in the long run | 10:04 |
| paddatrapper | nsnzero: yeah fully understand that | 10:08 |
| andrewlsd | Mornings all inetpro jerit nsnzero nuvolari_ paddatrapper superfly thatgraemeguy theblazehen chesedo | 10:15 |
| andrewlsd | And those to whom I still need to introduce myself :-) | 10:15 |
| paddatrapper | Morning andrewlsd | 10:17 |
| nsnzero | hi andrewlsd | 10:19 |
| jerit | not even sure why I'm on IRC today... Today isn't a good day for me and I'm far from even pleasant company right now | 11:03 |
| chesedo | hi andrewlsd | 11:03 |
| * chesedo can remember `tar -zxfv <tar file>` of the top of his head | 11:04 | |
| andrewlsd | \o | 11:04 |
| andrewlsd | chesedo: with the "-" or without it. methinks unix tar doesn't want -xzf file it wants tar xzf file | 11:04 |
| chesedo | this example has them with the '-' -> https://kb.iu.edu/d/acfi | 11:07 |
| chesedo | Tape ARchives = tar | 11:08 |
| * chesedo never knew that | 11:08 | |
| paddatrapper | andrewlsd: it doesn't matter which way round you do it. As far as I remember it follows Unix spec or something... | 11:12 |
| andrewlsd | (it seems quiet) | 16:33 |
| * nlsthzn lurks in the shadows | 17:22 | |
| superfly | ohi | 17:29 |
| nlsthzn | sup superfly , how's Trumpville? | 18:10 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: largely the same as it was when it was Obamaville | 18:10 |
| nlsthzn | I guess you have about the same experience under both of them :p | 18:12 |
| nlsthzn | in your limited time there I mean :) | 18:12 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: I'd rather live in Trumpville than where you are though ;-) | 18:13 |
| nlsthzn | dunno, I have no experience in the US to compare | 18:14 |
| nlsthzn | but who knows what the future holds :) - with the oil price like it is things are getting... tight | 18:15 |
| nlsthzn | but other than that superfly all well? Family happy? | 18:24 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: yep, we're happy. I'm job hunting, but in our spare time we are doing a few things... yesterday we went to the zoo | 18:26 |
| superfly | I went to an installfest with the AZLoCo on Saturday too. | 18:26 |
| nlsthzn | nice | 18:37 |
| nlsthzn | gl with the job search | 18:37 |
| smile | bye :) | 20:24 |
