| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Is there somewhere documentation of why specific programs were selected as defaults and which alternatives were rejected? | 08:58 |
|---|---|---|
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> I just encountered featherpad in a VM and it seems to be quite inferior to alternatives - I am curious is it reasonable to propose replacing it. | 08:58 |
| lubot | [telegram] <lynorian> I think part is dependencies and based only on qt stuff what other editors did you like better | 09:05 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> geany can show tabs/spaces and shows line number by default | 09:07 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> featherpad has no option to show tabs/spaces that I found, uses tabs in Python files intended with spaces and is not showing line number by default, even in code files | 09:07 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> (I switched to geany because I remember it from the first linux computer I used and is simpler to install than VSCodium) | 09:08 |
| lubot | [telegram] <lynorian> line numbers by default is in prefrences | 09:10 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Yes, but at least I expect code editor to have it enabled by default. In the same way as I expect text to not be white on white background. | 09:15 |
| lubot | [telegram] <lynorian> I mean I find that a thing that could be done in packaging for lubuntu default settings if we really want to | 09:16 |
| lubot | [telegram] <lynorian> given that would only fix it on new installs | 09:17 |
| lubot | [telegram] <aptghetto> Fortunately featherpad is a plain-text editor with syntax highlighting for some languages. | 09:24 |
| lubot | [telegram] <aptghetto> It is also very easy to enable line numbers. | 09:24 |
| lubot | [telegram] <aptghetto> And if this is not enough: open a bug report on the upstream project and it will be included automatically with the next packaged featherpad release. | 09:25 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> remind me: the last 32bit Lubuntu release was...? | 15:46 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> i believe it was the same time as Ubuntu dropped 32bit, no? | 15:46 |
| lubot | [telegram] <N0um3n0> 18.10 | 15:47 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> that's what I thought, thanks. | 15:47 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> people on Ask Ubuntu said "I thought a few flavors had official 32bit images as recently as 20.04" but they're not the smartest people nor authorities. I could pull my Lubuntu Council hat out on 'em but I'm lazy | 15:49 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> and have enough things to worry about today first :P | 15:49 |
| lubot | [telegram] <N0um3n0> hahaha, no, the last one was 18.10, the first with lxqt and the last with 32 bits, the last with 32-bit support was 18.04 for being lts. | 15:55 |
