ma: hi earle, nice to meet you here.
em: Hey Mattis. This is rather groovy.
ma: we do the sign abbreviations as we loose the colors when it goes out to wiki. I can enter svsavetxt in scripts and it get included for everybody readable on the www. Shall I do it?
em: Right - go for it I reckon.
ma: done, should be at http://is-root.de/wiki/index.php/Talk:TingWiki/ting15 . It is.
The ting is, when a discussion is hot, you can invite people to join showing them what exactly has been goin on until second or minutes ago.
em: Snappy. Whee, altering the past is fun. I wonder what you'd call this - ThreadMode in DocumentMode?
ma: it has a perfect history, even mor perfect than wik, f7 slide the bar (or f6 or f8 for finetuning) You can see who wrote what letter in sequence.
em: Oh my, that's rather beautiful. MoonEdit++
ma: Imagine irc, the nice translucent privacy as usual. Now an idea comes up, and the wind starts to blow. Someone makes a bot-export to a moon-edit page and all rework the text within the "hot" hour. Further tuning on wiki alone and later is no problem. (xcuse may english, got rough within the last months)
em: Forgive my compulsive spelling corrections - my Wiki:RedPenObsession is only worsened by this medium :) I can see myself using this tool a lot. (I wanted to try SubEthaEdit for a long time but a not a Mac user.)
ma: oh yes, following Ernst by 2 cm distance and correcting his comma errors - I still dream about this. I can understand you. :)
We also started to use two windows, tingn_document (n=number). Good stuff gets refactored and copied over, or live summarizing like lion did it on the session he was in. With some the right people caring for the right tasks it can get: h u u i -fast. We just started to develop a "culture" for tinging.
The worst about ( apart from the closed code) is that there is no mac-version. Inviting people and then being answered they are on mac is embarrasing. (theCrypto works on CoEdit, wich is supposed to be for all OS's)
em: Yes, I can see what you mean. I worry about what would happen if the bloke developing this app were to suddenly stop, or vanish, or what have you. I know there's a multiplatform equivalent that exists as a plugin for jEdit (written in Java so it works on most anything) that actually communicates over IRC! Which is... interesting.
jhb: and that it eats up files (we experienced that at least once).
ma: Tom, - the bloke - has been to several tings yet, he also made a working javascript thingie, but we lost the URL on a change of server. Tom is nice very cooperative and I think he seriously conciders opensourcing it. Not sure ;)
ma: copy and paste works but is different here. Use shift + arrow keys. You can not paste text into moon-edit. Between different pages yes, but not inwards from another program. Copying text outwards works.
Not perfect, not really "beautiful", but it's fast.
Stay logged, maybe the frenchies drop by later.
em: I'm sure that's something that will be resolved in due time. Will do.
ma: I think so too, yes.
exporting to wiki. Done (refresh cache if you can't see it = shift and reload in firefox)
...
18: 12 - Chuck Berry: And all those who will not ting must be playing with their own tingeling. :)
Patience. Tings blossom late and after hours sometimes.
em: I'm around again, in a sort of virtual here-not-here-sense.
