| MrAureliusR | I know budgie is written in vala, but I'm having a hard time finding ebooks about Vala... any suggestions? | 08:44 |

| dreamcat4 | MrAureliusR: you can run that same --replace command on either budgie-wm or budgie-panel. the reason for doing it on budgie-wm is to make sure everything is fully killed and restarted. it might not matter which one either way. budgie-panel is a child process of budgie-wm | 09:46 |
| dreamcat4 | MrAureliusR: vala is a psuedo-language that compiles down to C, it's apis are probably tightly integrated with other technologies used by gnome. such as GTK etc. | 09:48 |
| dreamcat4 | so therefore other existing code of projects which use similar libraries / apis would be a good initial place to get your bearing from | 09:49 |
| dreamcat4 | *bearing | 09:49 |
| dreamcat4 | for example there might be some very complete and well written 'small projects' or standalone utilities written in vala. which are more self-contained and use a limited subset of these apis / dont have such a sprawling source code / keep referring to stuff outside of the scope that you are looking at | 09:50 |

| MrAureliusR | ugh it just froze again. so it wasn't the forecast applet | 22:24 |
| MrAureliusR | ah crap I just ran that replace and reset command, and it wiped all my customizations... sigh. I meant to edit it first | 22:25 |
| MrAureliusR | that took me like the better part of an hour to get it set up the way I wanted | 22:25 |
