[08:58] <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.
[09:05] <lubot> [telegram] <lynorian> I think part is dependencies and based only on qt stuff what other editors did you like better
[09:07] <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
[09:08] <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)
[09:10] <lubot> [telegram] <lynorian> line numbers by default is in prefrences
[09:15] <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.
[09:16] <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
[09:17] <lubot> [telegram] <lynorian> given that would only fix it on new installs
[09:24] <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.
[09:25] <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.
[15:46] <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?
[15:47] <lubot> [telegram] <N0um3n0> 18.10
[15:47] <lubot> [telegram] <teward001> that's what I thought, thanks.
[15:49] <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
[15:55] <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.
