@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org

I can’t remember if the hex viewer back then had these options. Don’t even recall what software that was. :-)

The one that I used during my Windows 95 days was “Hex Workshop”. It had similar features, just not as promimently displayed. It shows them down there in the statusline as “Value”:

Newer versions can probably do more, haven’t checked. 😅 (Assuming this program still exists.)

Apart from selecting text to copy into the clipboard. But that probably has the potential for trouble and interference with button clicks, etc.

Yeah, that’s a big problem: Once you activate mouse mode in the terminal, the terminal loses the ability to select text. 😞 You’d either have to emulate that in the program itself (like Vim does) or give the user an easy way to turn mouse support on/off during runtime.

How did the startup times develop?

They’re pretty stable at around 230 ms on my old NUC. It’s just fast enough so that it doesn’t annoy me.

Some pretty pics to illustrate the much improved reference Salty.im client, salty-chat.

In-reply-to » Ah, nothing quite like a cold beer after a day of moving house without the use of a vehicle.

@dce@hashnix.club Wow! Moving without a vehicle, that seems impressive to me. Was it just down the street or how did you accomplish this? I hope you didn’t loose all your belongings due to a fire or similar catastrophe.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Nice, it’s coming together! Despite it being ages ago that I used a hex editor or viewer, these different representations of information appear very handy to me. If I had to mess around on binary formats, I’d definitely appreciate them. I can’t remember if the hex viewer back then had these options. Don’t even recall what software that was. :-)

I, too, only very, very rarely use the mouse in the terminal. Apart from selecting text to copy into the clipboard. But that probably has the potential for trouble and interference with button clicks, etc. If one isn’t careful.

I’m inclined to remove all mouse support, except for moving windows. 🤔 I originally wanted this to emulate the behavior of DOS programs, but a) mouse support is a lot of code, b) using the mouse is cumbersome anyway and I would rarely do it.

In-reply-to » It was so great going to the sauna again, we were looking forward to that the whole week. :-) It's been over a year, holy cow, time flies. We definitely have to pick up on that tradition again, that's for sure.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sauna is awesome – if it wasn’t for other people. 🤣 A little mökki in Finland with a private sauna, that would be it.

In-reply-to » @lyse I don’t know a number (wait, why can’t I google a Wetterbericht but only a Wettervorhersage?!), but it was enough for public transportation to shut down. 😅 I think I saw around five trucks on the side of the road who couldn’t continue, too icy. Some cars stranded.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Found some numbers now, they’re saying it was around 10cm in 3-4 hours. I don’t know, felt like more. 😂 The forecast wasn’t really good either, now that I think about it. They said there’s going to be some snow, okay, fine, but then, boom.

Haha, that old ad is lovely. Those days are over. 🤣

In-reply-to » With RAM crazy prices being what they are, I guess my PC is gonna be stuck on 16GB RAM for some time. I originally bought the DDR4 16GB kit for like $49 AUD, and I thought I'd just buy another 16GB or more later down the track (this was like a year and a half ago), thinking it would be similarly priced or even cheaper...

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yep sounds about right 🤔

Boy was that a mistake in hindsight LOL. The same kit is like $229 AUD now….
