Mathrick no PATANKO PRESS!

A new ccharset version is out, courtesy of LaC.

The installation and everything stay the same.

Yep. It’s not my accomplishment, mind you, I was too lazy and just got used to the shortcomings. So the new version of ccharset comes courtesy of teh_LaC. Here you can get it. Readme stays the same as in the old version, but bear in mind the config file is no longer compatible, so you’ll have to set channel encodings again. Ah, and topic setting doesn’t, and isn’t going to work, yay XChat.

(This post is written in Japanese. I don’t think it’ll look pretty on advogato, but I can’t help it either)

今日#nihongoで日本語の私という意味の言葉についての会話が出た。それで、次の表ができた。

• わし
• うち
• おれ

• あたし
• わっち
• あちき
• 自分
• わたす （何か北の方言だと思う）

面白いよ。ポーランド語とか英語とかには一つだけの言葉がある。西洋語が詰らないw

Introducing CCharset!
If you were ever annoyed by XChat’s perpetual inability to follow per-channel encoding settings, then be no more! CCharset allows you to override encoding on a per-channel basis, so now you can use iso-2022-jp in the ever stubborn #nihongo and utf-8 everywhere else. Isn’t that cool? It does exactly this one thing, manages your encodings, nothing else, particularly won’t spew stupid messages on all channels you’re on and fuck with your colours, unlike certain other plugins (coughfreecharcough). Also supports saving your settings, so you don’t have to ever enter that info more than once.

Of course, the usual disclaimer applies, so if this plugin runs over your cat, then sorry for the cat, but you have only yourself to blame.

Update: It has come to my attention that the plugin messes with non-ASCII topic setting badly. So there. You have been warned. I’ll probably (attempt to) fix it someday, but right now, it’s not a top priority.

reason #84.

(For those of us who need smart IME anyway, check out UIM, great stuff. Japanese and Polish diacritics at the same time are finally possible.)

Whoever at MSFT decided to replace undisplayable CJK characters with ? deserves my most sincere kick in the nuts, deliverable whenever we meet.

Woah
