Researching now. 10:20:46 <aleth> nhnt11: There is an easier way than you [tbpersist] flags 10:21:13 <nhnt11> Mic: I'd also like to use something other than parentNode.parentNode.... to get tabbrowser. I tried document.getElementById("conversations"); but that didn't work :/ 10:21:21 <nhnt11> aleth: Do tell :) 10:21:25 <aleth> Take a look at http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/instantbird/content/instantbird.xul#120 10:21:39 --> qlum has joined #instantbird 10:22:08 <aleth> The idea is you have the default entries in the <content>, and JS code called on popupshowing hides the ones that are not applicable and/or adds tab-specific ones 10:22:37 <aleth> For entries in xml files, you can use the dtd files to localize the strings. For entries added via JS, use the string bundle 10:23:15 <aleth> Note the code in the onpopupshowing handler I linked to makes a new nsContextMenu object every time. 10:25:10 <nhnt11> aleth: I'm a little confused. If it makes a new one every time, won't even the default elements be wiped? 10:25:17 <Mic> I'm not sure how that is easier? 10:25:21 <aleth> No. 10:25:22 <Mic> Or better? 10:25:26 <flo-retina> Mic: things like lines 20 and 21 in that pastebin don't work 10:25:42 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I know they don't, I just... left them there :P 10:25:43 <aleth> It's easier because you don't have to remember the state (tbpersist) for all those items 10:25:44 <Mic> Yes, I would have been surprised if they did 10:25:57 <Mic> It's in a CDATA section.. 10:26:28 <flo-retina> nhnt11: ah sorry, I just saw Mic's "I was just about to ask if things like on line 21 in the diff actually work." and missed your previous sentence. 10:26:33 <aleth> nhnt11: Items are never wiped, just hidden. 10:27:02 <Mic> aleth: I don't think that's an advantage when arbitrary tabs can add items to the menu. 10:27:20 <Mic> I really gtg. 10:28:13 <aleth> Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't understand your point. 10:32:39 <aleth> When the popup is hidden, you remove the extra items the tab added 10:32:43 <aleth> like e.g. http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/instantbird/content/nsContextMenu.js#35 10:33:42 <nhnt11> aleth: That's kinda what it's doing now, but it's removing the items before showing rather than after hiding 10:33:55 <nhnt11> Though it should probably be moved, yes. 10:34:00 <aleth> I'm not even sure that that is necessary (possibly the entries are removed automatically when the popup closes) 10:34:22 <aleth> nhnt11: I just saw lots of tbpersist=true flags and I suspect you can do without. 10:34:38 <aleth> But if you think it's the cleanest way to do it, fine :) 10:34:51 <nhnt11> aleth: They aren't removed. That's why I added the tbpersist stuff in the first place. 10:35:17 <nhnt11> I was initially adding a "Test" menu item and after a few right clicks ended up with the whole menu full of "Test"s :P 10:35:32 <aleth> OK :) 10:35:53 <aleth> That's why there's a cleanup() function in the link above then ;) 10:36:04 <nhnt11> aleth: Also this way a tab can add it's own persistent menu item (I can't think of any use cases right now, but someone may find use for it in an addon one day :P) 10:36:26 <nhnt11> s/it's/its 10:36:54 <aleth> I thought by "persistent" you meant "present on every tab"? 10:36:59 <nhnt11> aleth: Yes. 10:37:13 <aleth> Add-ons could do that anyway... 10:37:30 <nhnt11> aleth: Good point :P 10:37:49 <aleth> Anyway, I just wanted to point you to that code, to give you another possible approach to choose from ;) 10:38:06 <nhnt11> I'll try that method out too and decide :) 10:40:56 <aleth> Sounds like you're getting close to having it all work anyway :) 10:41:23 <nhnt11> aleth: Do I need to explicitly destroy the removed menu items? Or can I just forget about it and let GC do its thing? 10:41:58 <aleth> nhnt11: I don't understand the question. How do you remove the items? 10:42:26 <nhnt11> aleth: line125 in the diff. 10:42:36 <nhnt11> aPopupMenu.removeChild() 10:42:52 <aleth> That's all you need to do. 10:42:57 <nhnt11> Great. 10:42:59 <-- Mic has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 10:43:11 <aleth> If there is no reference left to the removed item, GC will take it. 10:43:39 <nhnt11> aleth: While I'm at it, shall I change the existing "var"s to "let"s? 10:43:53 <aleth> You might as well, if you are changing most of the surrounding code anyway. 10:43:59 <nhnt11> Right now I've been using "var" in any new code to keep it consistent. 10:44:06 <aleth> And improve variable names which you think are confusing (e.g. too many "convs" 10:44:06 <nhnt11> Okay. 10:44:12 <nhnt11> Sounds good. 10:54:48 <nhnt11> I'll be back in a few hours. 10:54:51 <-- nhnt11 has left #instantbird () 10:58:37 <-- wuwei|afk has quit (Quit: Leaving) 11:01:32 <-- EionRobb has quit (Ping timeout) 11:06:00 --> clokep_wp8 has joined #instantbird 11:06:53 <clokep_wp8> nhnt11: You might want to do a separate check-in changing all let to var? 11:07:02 <-- clokep_wp8 has quit (Connection reset by peer) 11:08:58 <-- Even has quit (Ping timeout) 11:08:58 <-- flo-retina has quit (Ping timeout) 11:10:07 --> Even has joined #instantbird 11:10:07 * ChanServ sets mode +o Even 11:10:16 --> flo-retina has joined #instantbird 11:10:17 * ChanServ sets mode +qo flo-retina flo-retina 11:15:42 --> mpmc has joined #instantbird 11:18:25 <-- jb has quit (Ping timeout) 11:21:57 --> jb has joined #instantbird 11:32:11 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 11:41:18 <-- aleth has quit (Quit: Ciao) 11:41:27 --> aleth has joined #instantbird 11:41:27 * ChanServ sets mode +h aleth 12:16:37 <nhnt11> I'm writing some code that needs to open a file, but when I run it I get "IO is not defined".

How do I get the window that contains aConv? I tried aConv.ownerDocument.defaultView but ownerDocument is undefined. 13:09:56 <aleth> Is aConv the binding or...? 13:10:28 <nhnt11> Yes 13:11:06 <nhnt11> (Passed to the command's run function) 13:11:30 <aleth> Why an't you just use "window"? 13:11:58 <nhnt11> Will that definitely refer to the window that contains aConv? 13:12:41 <-- rosonline has quit (Ping timeout) 13:12:42 <aleth> Depends on from where you are using it of course, but probably yes. 13:13:03 <aleth> Check and find out? ;) 13:13:17 <nhnt11> Hmm okay. I just wanted to do a window.alert() as a crude way of notifying the user of an IO exception 13:13:19 <nhnt11> Okay :) 13:14:39 <nhnt11> Yes I know there's an XPCOM service to show alerts but I wanted to try this anyway. 13:15:00 <aleth> But to answer your specific question, convBinding.ownerDocument.defaultView should give you the conversation window. 13:15:27 <nhnt11> aleth: That's what I thought :( 13:17:18 --> qheaden has joined #instantbird 13:17:48 <nhnt11> aleth: I just tried using "window". window is not defined :P I have to get one using Services.wm but again, how would I know which window to alert in... 13:18:07 <qheaden> Hello everyone! 13:18:11 <aleth> Is this your add-on code? 13:18:21 <nhnt11> aleth: Yes. 13:18:23 <nhnt11> Hi qheaden 13:18:28 <aleth> Where do you get aConv from? 13:18:29 --> rosonline has joined #instantbird 13:18:55 <aleth> "window" is not defined from an add-on of course. 13:19:12 <nhnt11> aleth: It's passed to the command. I register a "/paste" command using Services.cmd and aConv is passed to the command's run() function. 13:19:29 <aleth> That's probably not the conversation binding that is passed. 13:19:47 <aleth> Check and find out? 13:19:58 <qheaden> flo-retina: ping 13:20:17 <nhnt11> aleth: I'm getting confused by what you call a "binding" I think. I can call aConv.sendMsg(), so I thought it was the conversation binding. 13:20:47 <aleth> When I say "conversation binding" I mean the main XBL in conversation.xml 13:21:02 <aleth> The panel. 13:21:04 * nhnt11 hopes to get properly familiar with XBL before the coding period. 13:21:14 <nhnt11> aleth: Yes, that's the one. 13:21:37 <nhnt11> So I'm interpreting it correctly. 13:21:43 <aleth> nhnt11: http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/chat/components/public/prplIConversation.idl#45 13:21:49 <flo-retina> qheaden: I'm around 13:22:09 <flo-retina> but may not answer quickly (and it's likely that others would have answers to your questions too :)) 13:22:28 <nhnt11> aleth: I don't think that's what is called. What's the best way to check? 13:23:01 <aleth> nhnt11: I'd say look at other command handlers 13:23:43 <aleth> Or dump some identifying properties. 13:24:01 <nhnt11> aleth: I'll try an Object.keys() P 13:24:02 <nhnt11> :P 13:24:31 <qheaden> flo-retina: I know clokep isn't around, but I'm letting you know I won't be back here until around 4 hours from now. Don't want you all to think I'm slacking. :) 13:26:31 <-- rosonline has quit (Ping timeout) 13:26:34 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I'm asking you as a shortcut, is the aConv that is passed to a command's run function the conversation binding? 13:26:45 <flo-retina> qheaden: ok, thanks for the heads up. Btw, I don't think you specifically need to ping someone for this. If you just say something like "I'm going to be away for the new 4 hours or so", whoever is curious will find it by looking for your nick in the log ;) 13:27:26 <flo-retina> nhnt11: can you show a link to the code you are talking about? (my guess is the answer is "no", but it would be easier to be sure if I saw the code :)) 13:27:36 <qheaden> flo-retina: Okay, I'll do that next time. :) 13:28:05 <nhnt11> flo-retina: http://pastebin.instantbird.com/212626 13:28:28 <qheaden> See you all later. 13:28:42 <flo-retina> nhnt11: http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/chat/components/public/imICommandsService.idl#35 13:28:51 <-- qheaden has quit (Quit: AndroIRC - Android IRC Client ( http://www.androirc.com )) 13:28:57 <flo-retina> it's a prplIConversation (my guess was right) 13:29:18 <nhnt11> Ah. 13:29:33 <aleth> That was my guess too, that's why I linked to the prplIConversation idl above ;) 13:29:35 <flo-retina> it makes sense as that code was somehow written with the assumption that commands were implemented by prpls 13:29:47 <flo-retina> I can see how that would be annoying for UI add-ons though 13:29:52 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Fair enough. 13:33:16 <aleth> nhnt11: There's probably a Services.conversations method you can call to get to the binding 13:33:35 <nhnt11> aleth: I'll look at that now. 13:35:17 <aleth> Hmm, or maybe that will only give you the imIConversation 13:35:54 <nhnt11> aleth: It's okay, I don't want to spend too much time on this. 13:36:29 <nhnt11> I'm adapting from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Code_snippets/Alerts_and_Notifications 13:36:33 <aleth> One way to get a tour of all the different conversation objects :P 13:36:51 <nhnt11> (There's a snippet under "If you need to display a comparable alert on a platform...") 13:36:52 <aleth> Yeah, for a simple window.alert it's overkill 13:36:54 <nhnt11> Heh 13:37:33 <aleth> Though alerts are usually meant more for debugging than for end-users ;) 13:37:56 <nhnt11> aleth: I need to notify the user that reading the file failed. I can't think of any other way that isn't overkill. 13:38:07 <flo-retina> the only way I can find to get the conv binding is to import imWindows.jsm, and then Conversations._uiConv[Services.conversations.getUIConversation(prplConv).id] 13:38:11 <aleth> Right, for an add-on it's ifine. 13:38:25 <flo-retina> that's ugly, but we could likely live with it for an add-on 13:38:44 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Ew. :P 13:38:54 <nhnt11> But at least there's a way :D 13:39:29 <aleth> nhnt11: Normal IB code isn't supposed to have to do that kind of thing ;) 13:40:31 <flo-retina> if getting to a conv binding from a command is a common use case, some API likely needs to be improved ;) 13:41:10 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I should probably use imNotifications.jsm to display the alert 13:41:15 * nhnt11 wonders why he didn't think about that earlier. 13:41:39 <aleth> Unless you want the alert near the textbox... 13:41:53 <nhnt11> aleth: No no just any alert is fine :S 13:41:58 <nhnt11> (So much ado over this! :D) 13:43:14 --> mconley has joined #instantbird 13:46:17 <nhnt11> I just thought of a much better way. Show a system message (seems obvious...) 13:46:44 <aleth> :) 13:47:34 <nhnt11> I have no idea how to do that :P 13:48:30 <aleth> Services.conversations.getUIConversation(aConv).systemMessage(...) should work 13:49:14 <aleth> http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/chat/components/public/imIConversationsService.idl#18 13:50:22 <nhnt11> Thanks. 13:50:48 <nhnt11> It's amazing how helpful people in this channel are :) 13:52:16 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 13:52:27 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 14:03:43 <-- aleth has quit (Quit: Ciao) 14:09:09 <nhnt11> I'll be back after dinner. 14:09:14 * nhnt11 is now known as nhnt11_away 14:30:02 <-- mpmc has quit (Ping timeout) 14:36:56 <-- nhnt11_away has quit (Ping timeout) 14:38:15 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 14:46:38 --> mpmc has joined #instantbird 14:55:10 * Optimizer1 is now known as Optimizer 14:57:11 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 14:58:59 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 14:59:03 <nhnt11> What's the best way for an add-on to overlay a method in the conversation binding? 15:00:28 <nhnt11> I could only think of overlaying instantbird.xul, and then replace the method I want to override every time a conversation is added. 15:02:47 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:05:45 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:08:14 <flo-retina> nhnt11: that's a possible way, yes. We have a few examples of code doing it that way. There are links to sample of code in the wiki. 15:09:34 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:13:07 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:13:10 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Okay, thanks 15:15:37 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:15:41 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:18:11 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:18:14 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:18:17 <-- mpmc has quit (Client exited) 15:19:23 --> rohandalvi has joined #instantbird 15:19:57 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:20:19 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:20:21 <nhnt11> flo-retina: If I wanted to modify a message before it's sent, would it be enough to override sendMsg() in UIConversation? http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/source/chat/components/src/imConversations.js#273 15:21:01 <flo-retina> I don't think an add-on can change that 15:21:43 <nhnt11> Hmm. 15:22:04 <flo-retina> but if it's for local testing and rebuilding is fine, sure 15:22:29 <nhnt11> Perhaps I could add a separate keybinding to do it instead... like Ctrl+Shift+Enter or something. 15:22:49 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:22:56 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:22:59 <nhnt11> (I want to extend the pastebin addon to pastebin the message in the input box) 15:24:46 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:25:00 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:26:52 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:27:03 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:27:56 <flo-retina> nhnt11: why isn't that the default behavior? 15:28:47 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:29:06 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:30:19 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Sometimes I pipe diffs to files and it's faster for me to pastebin the file directly rather than open it and copy the contents. 15:31:18 <flo-retina> so how do you handle giving the file path to instantbird? 15:31:37 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:31:38 <flo-retina> I think Standard8 uses a shell script that just pastebins for him (likely with a pipe too) 15:31:41 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:31:46 <flo-retina> and then he copies the URL 15:32:32 <nhnt11> flo-retina: /paste /path/to/file 15:32:47 <flo-retina> without completion on file paths, that sounds tedious ;) 15:33:58 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Something like $hg diff | pastebin.sh would be brilliant. Especially if the script put the link in the clipboard. 15:34:11 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:34:14 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:34:32 <flo-retina> hg diff |paste 15:34:44 <flo-retina> bin.sh is too much typing (ok, there's completion in the shell :)) 15:35:54 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:36:17 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:36:22 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Yes well I got the point across :P 15:37:01 <-- Mook has quit (Quit: Mook) 15:37:12 <flo-retina> :) 15:38:03 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.4 -- http://www.instantbird.com) 15:38:08 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:39:21 <-- jb has quit (Quit: jb) 15:39:28 --> jb has joined #instantbird 15:39:31 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Is there any way to send a message other than the enter key? 15:39:49 <flo-retina> we could add "send" to the context menu :) 15:40:03 <flo-retina> nhnt11: currently, no 15:40:14 <Even> It sure miss a graphic UI element for that. 15:40:31 <Even> Something "discoverable" (discoverable != context menu ^^). 15:40:38 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:40:41 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:40:58 <flo-retina> Even: what's the use case? 15:41:04 <Even> Good UI. 15:41:35 <Even> I know a lot of people that don't think "enter". 15:41:44 <Even> My mother looked for send and I had to tell her. 15:41:47 <flo-retina> The "use case" is "in which case would you use it?" 15:41:47 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I'm actually happy there's no other way :P 15:41:54 <Even> And she never tried or thought to right click. 15:42:03 <nhnt11> It means I can override the keybinding to effectively override sendMsg :P 15:42:17 <flo-retina> Even: if discoverability is the only issue, taking pixels off everybody's screen isn't the best fix 15:43:02 <Even> Whaterver the best fix is. Right now it means you understand software to use this part of the UI. 15:43:11 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 15:43:12 <flo-retina> Even: for discoverability pursing something like "Input placeholder" seems a good idea to me :). 15:43:24 <Even> ?? 15:43:35 <Even> I don't even start to understand either the sentence or the idea. 15:43:43 <Even> I don't know which one :p 15:43:44 <flo-retina> Even: it's also difficult for some people to discover where they need to type text 15:43:56 <Even> Ah. 15:44:06 <flo-retina> Even: "Input placeholder" is the name of an add-on by Mic 15:44:32 <flo-retina> the idea was to put in grey text "Type your message here and press enter to send" inside the textbox when it's empty. 15:44:34 <Even> Well, at least that part is better since the good place is already active when you start a conversation. 15:44:39 <Even> Oh. 15:44:56 <Even> That works too. And is easy to implement. 15:44:56 <flo-retina> Even: you assume people know what a focused element looks like and means. Confused people are unlikely to know that. 15:45:05 <Even> True enough. 15:45:10 <Even> :) 15:45:12 <flo-retina> There was a lot of discussion around what the text should be exactly 15:45:28 <flo-retina> and that's why we created an add-on; so that we can try and tweak easily various texts 15:45:38 <Even> okay 15:46:03 <flo-retina> Even: the use case for wanting something in the context menu is completely different 15:46:18 <Even> I don't see it :) 15:46:23 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:46:25 * nhnt11 wonders what on earth is going on with his internet :'( 15:46:30 <Even> (what the use case would be) 15:46:49 <flo-retina> Even: sometimes it's possible to paste something in the input field with only the mouse (either through the keyboard; or through the middle mouse button on Linux), and to need to reach the keyboard to send. That's annoying 15:47:36 <Even> Well, if that's you use case, the "right click then move your mouse then click again" is also useful. 15:47:43 <Even> Enter key will still be nearer. 15:48:01 <Even> useful => horrible 15:48:01 <flo-retina> typically happens to me when I'm in front of my macbook, and want to show to someone the error message that just caused my linux build to fail on the other machine. With a single hand I can reach the mouse. If I need the keyboard, I need to put away my laptop before. 15:48:03 <Even> I'm tired :) 15:48:56 <Even> Well, a Send button would be more discoverable and easier to use. Could appear only when your mouse is over the text area. 15:49:06 <Even> (which you would obviously over to paste) 15:49:06 <flo-retina> Even: a button would work in this case, yes. *But* it's a very rare use case; and I don't think it's worth cluttering the UI all the time, for something that happens less than once a month (builds don't fail that often :-D) 15:49:21 <Even> And disappear if text is entered or mouse unmoved during a set of time. 15:49:37 <flo-retina> Even: I also considered having a "send" button appearing when hovering the textarea, or the right border of the text area. 15:49:42 <flo-retina> that feels more like an add-on though 15:49:58 <Even> Yeah, but the use case of very mouse oriented people does exists. 15:50:05 <Even> Better to have an accessible UI element for that; 15:50:16 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:50:29 <Even> Than a nearly useless context menu entry (I'm pretty confident than aside from the Ib dev, noone will ever find it) 15:50:58 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:51:04 <Even> And even me I wouldn't have. The first time I tried to right click this space in Ib was 4 minutes ago to see what it did... 15:52:24 <-- rohandalvi has quit (Client exited) 15:52:24 <Even> I really don't think I tried it before. 15:52:25 <flo-retina> "Than a nearly useless context menu entry" why do you think it never got implemented? ;) 15:52:42 <Even> For good reason :P 15:52:50 <flo-retina> I would accept a patch for it; but not bother writing it myself (and not even filing a bug for it unless someone is interested in implementing it) 15:53:02 <Even> Don't see why. 15:53:07 <Even> That is extension stuff. 15:53:13 <flo-retina> Even: you don't have the spell checker enabled? 15:53:14 <Even> This time truely. 15:53:24 <Even> I do. 15:53:26 <Even> But it does not work :) 15:53:34 <flo-retina> why? 15:53:39 <Even> Dunno. 15:53:45 <Even> Nerver worked on my Linux box. 15:53:55 * flo-retina discovers the context menu when clicking on a word with a red underline 15:54:15 <Even> Don't have any :P Ever. 15:54:46 <flo-retina> Even: also, I think if you use "paste" from the context menu, "send" is then very discoverable 15:54:48 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 15:54:56 <Even> I don't. 15:55:04 <flo-retina> and if you don't, you don't need that context menu item anyway 15:55:07 <Even> I always use keyboard for this. 15:55:32 <Even> (or middle mouse ^^) 15:55:41 <Even> (that happens too on Linux quite often) 15:57:11 <Even> But I'm part of a sect that says that every action possible in a software should have an UI element for it and that it should not be easy to find without right clicking nor keyboard. 15:57:14 <Even> xD 15:57:41 <Even> changed my sentence half through 15:57:42 <instant-buildbot> build #420 of linux-onCommit is complete: Success [build successful] Build details are at http://buildbot.instantbird.org/builders/linux-onCommit/builds/420 15:57:44 <Even> should be easy to find 15:57:45 <Even> xD 15:58:10 <flo-retina> Even: what if I'm part of a sect that says sentences should be easy to understand? :-P 15:58:33 * flo-retina thinks we should stop polluting the log with things we have no intention of implementing. 15:58:50 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 15:59:21 <Even> Then you would be right to be part of it xD 15:59:54 <Even> If it has subliminal power to achieve this I would like to be part of it too. 16:00:40 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:00:53 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:02:42 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:02:56 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:05:26 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:05:29 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:08:00 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:08:02 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:09:42 <instant-buildbot> build #407 of win32-onCommit is complete: Success [build successful] Build details are at http://buildbot.instantbird.org/builders/win32-onCommit/builds/407 16:10:32 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:10:36 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:12:28 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:12:39 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:13:01 <nhnt11> What would be a reasonable number of lines, beyond which a message gets pastebin'd? 16:13:43 <nhnt11> I was thinking 10 16:16:23 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:18:46 <flo-retina> nhnt11: it may be a number of characters. 16:19:04 <flo-retina> especially if the message is too long to be sent as one message 16:20:30 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:22:21 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:22:39 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:22:54 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Okay I'll try that later. 16:23:10 <nhnt11> Or add it as an extra condition, or something. 16:25:09 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:25:12 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:25:53 <Even> Yeah, number of chars looks better than number of lines. 16:26:26 <Even> Because they are probably not the same on the recipient's computer for a start (long lines). And that might also depend on the theme used. 16:26:41 <flo-retina> number of lines seems only relevant on IRC where linebreaks are "expensive" 16:27:15 <Even> Yeah. 16:27:42 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:27:45 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:27:58 <Even> But wouldn't that be too much to make exceptions based on the protocol? Or if not, the right way would be for the protocol to register its exception to the core probably. 16:29:17 <-- jb has quit (Ping timeout) 16:30:05 <Even> Another way to put it is probably, a general set of rules tweakable for each protocol by the protocol :) 16:30:15 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:30:18 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:32:48 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Input/output error) 16:32:50 --> nhnt11 has joined #instantbird 16:36:35 --> nhnt13 has joined #instantbird 16:37:09 <-- nhnt11 has quit (Ping timeout) 16:39:37 <-- Optimizer has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.4a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com) 16:39:46 --> Optimizer has joined #instantbird 16:40:36 --> Mook_as has joined #instantbird 16:51:41 <nhnt13> Finally, it works. 16:52:41 <nhnt13> This is a ten line message. 16:52:41 <nhnt13> line 2 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 3 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 4 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 5 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 6 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 7 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 8 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 9 16:52:42 <nhnt13> line 10 16:52:53 <nhnt13> Oh no.

Having data to check how good your prediction algorithm is sounds like a good idea to me. 19:49:49 <nhnt11> Mic: That sounds like a good add-on project. 19:50:29 <Mic> I don't think that needs to be done as preparation but maybe you'd like to do that as a diversion? ;) 19:51:17 <nhnt11> Mic: Right.

They are conversation-specific, and the whole point of what I'm doing is to make tabbrowser transparent to that. 20:55:46 --> DGMurdockIII has joined #instantbird 20:58:38 <flo-retina> nhnt11: weren't you talking about making an extension of the tab binding, specifically for tabs holding a conversation? 20:59:30 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I was making the tabbrowser-tab binding extendable yes, but decided it was a bit overkill and unnecessary. 20:59:31 <-- Nirgali has quit (Ping timeout) 20:59:49 <flo-retina> ok 21:00:08 <flo-retina> how important is the context menu stuff to the thing you are actually doing? 21:00:09 <nhnt11> tabbrowser-tab has very little that is conversation-specific, and I was able to easily make it fully transparent. 21:01:35 <nhnt11> flo-retina: Well the idea is that tabbrowser has a general context menu with new tab, close tab, close other tabs, etc, and the tabPanel associated with a tab injects menuitems specific to it (show logs, hide conv. for e.g if it's a conversation) when the popup is shown. 21:02:20 --> EionRobb has joined #instantbird 21:03:07 <flo-retina> nhnt11: shouldn't these items be part of the conversation binding then? 21:03:15 <nhnt11> flo-retina: They are. 21:03:29 <flo-retina> and the DOM node copied to the tab context menu during the onpopupshowing handler 21:04:34 <nhnt11> flo-retina: That's what I suggested here: http://log.bezut.info/instantbird/today/#m611 21:04:59 <nhnt11> But would that really be better than generating tabs is my question. 21:05:55 <flo-retina> I missed that line :( 21:06:59 <flo-retina> I don't know if it's "better", but it seems good enough :) 21:08:44 <nhnt11> flo-retina: I'll try it out and post a diff. 21:09:08 --> Kaishi has joined #instantbird 21:11:09 --> Nirgali has joined #instantbird 21:15:39 * Mook_as usually just stubs everything out in English with a XXX prefix in the to-be-localized text to get things moving forward... :p 21:17:08 --> clokep_wp8 has joined #instantbird 21:17:27 <clokep_wp8> nhnt11: http://log.bezut.info/instantbird/today/#m136 21:17:45 <nhnt11> clokep_wp8: I did see that. 21:17:53 <nhnt11> Do you think I should do that first? 21:18:05 <Mic> "let to var" or rather "var to let"? 21:18:16 <nhnt11> Mic: I assume var to let ;) 21:18:21 * Mic too. 21:18:59 <clokep_wp8> nhnt11: Also, pastebing a file from IB doesn't seem useful. :-\ Did you see my Komodo macro to do pastebining? 21:19:05 <clokep_wp8> Mic pointed it out to you. 21:19:20 <nhnt11> clokep_wp8: I saw it but was unable to figure out how to add it to komodo. 21:19:23 <clokep_wp8> Can't wait to try the long text addon though! 21:19:42 <clokep_wp8> Var -> let, of course. 21:19:46 <nhnt11> I searched online but I couldn't find any of the mentioned menuitems on Mac. 21:19:49 <nhnt11> clokep_wp8: It works :) 21:20:01 <Mic> nhnt11: I remember that it was a bit complicated to add.
