| 14:46 | <GPHemsley> | so... RFC 4288 does not appear to specify how MIME type parameters should be separated from the MIME type itself... |
| 20:32 | <annevk> | "you sound surprised" |
| 20:36 | <zewt> | a special place in spec absurdity hall of fame must be reserved for OpenGL, and their omitting of "gl" on function calls in the spec, making it impossible to search for "glBegin"--it's just the unsearchable "begin" everywhere |
| 20:36 | <zewt> | those guys sure saved a couple letters! |
| 20:38 | <moo-_-> | GPHemsley: if you have read Terry Pratchet's novels there are usually imps living in little boxes for tasks like these |
| 21:24 | <Philip`> | zewt: Sounds like you need a case-sensitive search function |
| 21:26 | Philip` | likes how he can't search for underscore-separated identifiers in the GL spec, unless he replaces the underscores with spaces |
| 21:27 | <zewt> | wouldn't really work, since begin can begin a sentence |
| 21:28 | <Philip`> | It can, but I expect it very rarely does |
| 21:41 | <annevk> | is begin a method? |
| 21:41 | <annevk> | begin( should work then |
| 21:43 | <zewt> | haha i copied text from the spec and the word "final" became "final" |
| 21:44 | <zewt> | "begin(" doesn't work since eg. "If the number of vertices speci?ed for a quadrilateral strip between Begin and End is odd, the ?nal vertex is ignored." |
| 21:48 | <annevk> | or if you know the interface... dom-XXX-begin |
| 21:48 | <annevk> | but I guess they don't follow that pattern |
| 21:49 | <zewt> | talking about the core opengl specs; webgl is more sane here |
| 21:50 | <zewt> | (webgl doesn't include "gl", but they're also not part of the symbols--opengl actually calls glBegin "begin") |
