00:00:10  *** Snail_ [~jacopocol@CPE78cd8e5ccf20-CM78cd8e5ccf1d.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #openttd
00:00:32  <Snail_> back, comp crashed
00:01:16  <frosch123> so we finally get non-railtype specfic tunnels?
00:01:41  <swissfan91> maybe they'd look better viewed in Ogfx? they seem to suit that more.
00:02:14  <Snail_> well, I'm drawing some sprites that can be the base on which custom tunnel portals can be built
00:02:40  <Snail_> they just include the grass/desert/snow, the slope and the area around the portal
00:03:05  <Snail_> then, a railtype set could ideally provide its own graphics for the track and the portals
00:03:59  <swissfan91> when I think of France, I think of these tunnels .. http://www.la-clau.net/imatges/noticia/tunel_del_pertus_febrer_2009_la_clau.jpg
00:04:12  <frosch123> hmm, i don't see what the 16 sprites represent
00:04:16  <frosch123> 4 per direction
00:04:23  <frosch123> one below the rail, one above
00:04:27  <frosch123> what are the other two ?
00:04:57  <frosch123> snow? grass density?
00:05:34  *** Adambean [~AdamR@82.hosts.reece-eu.net] has quit [Quit: Gone fishing]
00:05:38  <Snail_> frosch123: what sprites are you referring to?
00:07:04  <frosch123> +static const uint16 RAILTYPE_TUNNEL_BASE_COUNT = 16; <- those :p
00:08:32  <Eddi|zuHause> <frosch123> so we finally get non-railtype specfic tunnels? <-- no, we get railtype specific tunnels in the first place
00:10:11  <Snail_> 2 for the landscape and 2 for the portal for each direction
00:10:31  <Snail_> the landscape would be provided by OTTD (it's what I'm trying to draw now ;) )
00:10:46  <Snail_> and the portals by the rail
00:14:25  <michi_cc> frosch123: Grass and snow/desert.
00:15:14  <frosch123> no grass densities?
00:15:17  *** JVassie [~James@2.27.87.68] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
00:15:30  <Snail_> basically they get drawn with this order: (1) the landscape behind and below the train; (2) the track and the part of the portal behind the train; (3) the landscape above; (4) the part of the portal above the train
00:15:33  <Snail_> so, 4 parts
00:15:33  <planetmaker> hm, very good point
00:15:46  <planetmaker> we should start providing it for all snow and grass densities
00:16:22  <swissfan91> grassy tt-forums have returned! at least on mine..
00:20:48  *** vodka [~paper@41.Red-88-15-116.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving]
00:21:14  <michi_cc> frosch123: If snail draws them... But then, the original tunnel portals don't have that either.
00:21:36  <planetmaker> michi_cc: then we draw it all the new way ;-)
00:21:51  <planetmaker> but providing that for all grass densities makes much sense
00:22:09  <planetmaker> otherwise we make the path to nicer snow densities again much more difficult
00:22:20  <planetmaker> or rather ugly, if not more difficult
00:22:35  <frosch123> hmm, original tunnels don't have that? :o
00:22:39  <planetmaker> nope
00:22:52  <planetmaker> snow transition anywhere not plain terrain is binary
00:22:56  <frosch123> hmm, ok, then we should make it consistent with that
00:22:57  <planetmaker> as is desert transition
00:23:05  <frosch123> more is fore action 123 new landscape then :)
00:23:16  <planetmaker> :-D
00:23:27  <planetmaker> Do you think a Feature for landscape is acceptable?
00:23:58  <planetmaker> Probably would need a test, eh?
00:24:15  <frosch123> as long as it does not get animation or similiar cb-heavy stuff
00:24:38  <frosch123> (so it does not increase the cpu load for stuff not being visible)
00:24:57  <frosch123> zoom-out is slow anyway :p
00:25:13  <frosch123> there is that smallmap-like zoomout on the forums
00:25:21  <frosch123> maybe we should do that already for the current 8x zoom out

00:25:48  <Snail_> are snow densities implemented already?
00:25:56  <planetmaker> Snail_: they are in TTD
00:26:19  <planetmaker> and newgrfs have that variable for eons
00:26:27  <planetmaker> at least industries and houses
00:26:48  <planetmaker> implicitly via the snow height
00:27:20  <planetmaker> thus full snow awareness is mostly a matter of coding effort
00:27:44  <planetmaker> exceptions are bridges (no info at all) and railtypes (only snow yes/no)
00:27:54  <Snail_> but the tunnel sprites are all the same
00:27:56  <planetmaker> as they have both no tileheight info
00:29:03  <planetmaker> FIRS: have a look at the new FIRS or at OpenGFX+ Airports

00:37:26  <Snail_> I'd say to finalize the general shape first, using the grassy temperate sprites... once the general shading and length of the "bowl" are finalized, I can start drawing other landscapes and grass/snow densities
00:38:46  <planetmaker> that makes sense

09:16:14  <andythenorth> Alberth: no, the define will be in the file, I just want to use the filename as an argument (to set the value of the define)

11:52:52  <Alberth> you want to make a new toolbar?
11:54:37  <Alberth> if so, you are basically creating a new window, so any toolbar window will do
11:55:54  <Alberth> the airport build bar is quite simple, should be in airport_gui
11:55:57  <Alberth> Window *ShowBuildAirToolbar()
11:57:34  <Alberth> I am not sure that we have cross-window drag/drop.  you could look in the depot window perhaps
11:57:55  <Alberth> that is not cross-window, but it does show the functions involved

12:04:21  <kkb110_> Alberth, ok I'll give a shot thank you :)
12:04:42  <andythenorth> mornings
12:04:44  <frosch123> be careful, the order window is the most complicated window code we have
12:05:36  <kkb110_> most codes are already complicated enough for me lol
12:06:56  <Alberth> what do you want to drag/drop?
12:07:33  <kkb110_> I'm planning to "remake" copy/paste feature
12:09:22  <Alberth> the usual approach is like what happens with stations and airports and so, where you switch the mouse mode to 'placement' and then wait for a click
12:09:42  <Alberth> or the other way around, click 'raise', drag an area, and it gets raised
12:11:06  <Alberth> tbh I don't see the need for drag/drop so much
12:11:33  <kkb110_> then how to specify copying area?
12:11:50  <Alberth> just like terraforming does it
12:12:24  <Alberth> dragging until mouse is released already exists
12:12:24  <kkb110_> wait.. so it's drag-drop now?
12:12:39  <kkb110_> yes that's what I'm looking for
12:13:12  <Alberth> oh, I understood your question as drag from your new window onto the main display
12:13:55  <kkb110_> it hope it makes easier than before lol
12:14:20  <Alberth> the terraform window would be useful to study
12:14:39  <kkb110_> ok terraform_gui.cpp..
12:15:29  <TrueBrain> another copy/paste patch; like we dont have enough of them already :D Hehe :) You might also be interested to look into works of others
12:15:31  <Alberth> the station placement window can also drag an area
12:16:23  <Alberth> I would assume they have covered the UI already
12:16:31  <kkb110_> TrueBrain, I'm gonna look at it when I really don't get it :) I skimmed it.. thousands of lines... it's too long!
12:16:54  <Alberth> kkb110_: so focus on the window parts only
12:17:17  <kkb110_> ok~
12:17:48  <Alberth> kkb110_: and quite likely, those thousands of lines are mostly all needed :p
12:18:19  <kkb110_> Alberth, haha yes probably

13:15:05  <fonsinchen> Also I need to split up the code in even smaller parts, but in my current setup this would increase the number of branches even more ...
13:15:43  <Alberth> did you automate this handling?
13:15:47  <fonsinchen> Yes
13:16:07  <fonsinchen> I have that "gitmake.mk" script in my repo which does all the merging for me
13:16:25  <MJP> Hi all! Alberth, since you are a GUI expert, would you mind to take a look at the part5 of my zoom64 r26 patchset? In particular the 3 modifications of window.cpp, I think they could be considered as an independant fix. Thx

13:20:14  <fonsinchen> Sometimes it's a good idea. michi_cc does it and he doesn't need 22 branches for YACD as his commits are what my branches are
13:20:16  <Alberth> it destroys history in the sense that you don't have a sequence patch1, patch2, etc ?
13:20:43  <fonsinchen> No, it intermixes trunk changes with my changes
13:21:17  <fonsinchen> So if I'm looking for some set of commits where I changed something it's likely they're not in a sequence.
13:22:06  <fonsinchen> and it creates loads and loads of "Merge blah" commits.
13:22:26  *** luxOOr [~chatzilla@HSI-KBW-149-172-8-25.hsi13.kabel-badenwuerttemberg.de] has left #openttd []
13:22:45  <Alberth> I am trying to picture what you want to achieve
13:23:27  <Alberth> basically have a repo for each revision?
13:23:34  <fonsinchen> At the moment I have that complicated graph of branches where each branch has a set of "precondition branches" and I'm using make to merge it all together if something changes somewhere.
13:24:19  <fonsinchen> for example one branch for feature "reservation", one for "MCF" and one for "cargomap" which depends on "MCF" and "reservation"
13:24:43  <Alberth> what if you consider each to be a separate project?
13:25:12  <fonsinchen> And then?
13:25:19  <Alberth> with its own repo, and releases
13:26:14  <fonsinchen> Then I have 22 folders each with one copy of OpenTTD and some changes on top of that.
13:26:23  <fonsinchen> Sounds like a mess ...
13:27:30  <Alberth> I am not sure what exactly the problem is, often creating more structure helps, but perhaps not here
13:28:36  <appe_> bah, i can see the ufo land
13:28:36  <appe_> but i cant prevent it?

13:28:40  <appe_> *
13:28:47  <fonsinchen> I'm also not quite sure, but I'm about to add 4 more branches and I somehow think a lot of that structure is actually not helpful.
13:29:21  <fonsinchen> I'm constantly switching branches, merging things back and forth, resolving conflicts and stuff like that.

13:30:13  <Alberth> appe_: quickly remove all tracks :p
13:30:19  <fonsinchen> However, I need the code to be split into small chunks as once I give that up I won't be able to easily recreate it if it needs to be merged into trunk.
13:31:39  <Alberth> I have those problems in patch queues too. I feel that the software could be made smarter in the sense that it understands there are relations between patches
13:32:28  <Alberth> ie I think it now treats each patch as a separate patch without taking into account it came from a queue
13:33:07  <Alberth> which gives the multiple conflict mess you talk about
13:34:04  <Alberth> but writing such software is a whole new project in itself :(
13:34:46  <fonsinchen> It should be possible to use git or hg in a more intelligent way, though.
13:35:20  <Alberth> maybe you should talk to some git gurus
13:35:22  <michi_cc> git rebase -i and git add -i
13:36:32  <michi_cc> Are the commits in your branches smaller, bigger or equal to a typical trunk commit?
13:36:50  <fonsinchen> they differ wildly
13:37:30  <fonsinchen> sometimes they're one liners where I only fixed some whitespace problem, sometimes it's a complete reimplementation of some class.
13:37:41  <fonsinchen> I don't like my commit history so much anyway
13:38:07  <fonsinchen> I should restructure the whole thing and rebase it on trunk.
13:38:59  <fonsinchen> michi_cc: Do you actually have more branches you work with or do you really keep exactly one commit for each feature? What do you do if you need to fix something? git commit --amend?
13:39:08  <michi_cc> My development process makes liberal use of rebase -i. If I notice some bug I make a fix commit which is then squashed into the broken commit when I rebase the next time.
13:39:55  <fonsinchen> and you make that fix commit on top of the one and only YACD branch I guess?
13:40:29  <fonsinchen> probably you mark it somehow as "belongs to commit X". I see ...
13:43:34  <michi_cc> Splitting features into proper sized commits is easy using git add -i (respectively git citool). If you take http://www.icosahedron.de/openttd/git/openttd.git/shortlog/refs/heads/yaim for example, I wrote everything (except the NoAI commit) more or less in one go the first time and then carved proper commits from my working dir. It's quite good to see in this case that all commits are mostly independent.
13:45:03  <michi_cc> After the first iteration I (of course :) discovered lots of errors, which then went into fixup commits which were squashed into the proper base commit (look up --autosquash in get help rebase).
13:46:22  <michi_cc> The YACD repository went through too many iterations that hide this process by now.
13:46:26  <fonsinchen> Ah nice, autosquash is what I was looking for, I guess.
13:46:56  <fonsinchen> what is git citool?

13:47:43  <Alberth> o/ Wolf01
13:47:49  <Wolf01> o/ Alberth
13:48:01  <michi_cc> short from of git gui citool, i.e. the integrated GUI tool. With that the process of picking diff hunks or even just lines is much easier than the text interface of git add -p/-i
13:49:12  <michi_cc> Just to spell it out explicitly, my kind of workflow completely relies on working with the index/staging area of git.
13:50:22  <fonsinchen> Now, say you want to add a major new feature somewhere in between. What I'm doing so far is creating a new branch, working on the new feature until it's complete and then adding the new branch to the merge hierarchy.
13:50:49  <MJP> well, if I have two extra viewports, I move the first, so it gets the focus, then I right click in the middle of the second and it does not receive focus (though I'm interacting with it)
13:51:09  *** valhalla1w [~valhallas@193.52.24.37] has joined #openttd
13:51:26  <fonsinchen> You would probably edit the head until the feature is ready and then reorder the commits with git rebase -i, right?
13:52:03  <fonsinchen> Saves a lot of checkout and merge action and makes a nice commit history ...
13:52:20  <michi_cc> In principle yes, but why would I want that feature in between? If it's a new feature, the old code can, by definition, not rely on it, so just leave it at the head be good.
13:52:22  <MJP> the other thing is the news window can get focused while I'm interacting with another window... I don't think that's normal

13:53:43  <fonsinchen> For example I'm adding code to support transfer and "unload all"/"no unload" orders. This touches several distinct places. For example I have to add a linkgraph normalizer which should logically be placed between the linkgraph creating code and the demand calculator.
13:53:59  <fonsinchen> and so I think the commit (or branch) should also be there.
13:55:06  <Alberth> MJP: maybe I don't understand "getting focus" here?   A viewport also doesn't have an edit box
13:55:07  <MJP> Alberth: this is strange because when the news shows up, _focused_window points to its window
13:57:34  <Alberth> MJP: the whole focus stuff already existed when I came in, and I 'only' changed how widgets are created and sized.

13:58:29  <michi_cc> If I don't really code a completely new feature but instead change/extend the existing code I basically create two types of commits intermixed, squash commits for earlier stuff and new commits that will be moved to a good place in the commit history. Mostly I would completely code and test the new stuff and then use selective stating and commit to carve good commits from it.
13:58:30  <Alberth> so far I never really understood what its function is
13:59:44  <Alberth> michi_cc: I tend to code a feature, then use diff mode of gvim to copy the changes in the right order to a new patch queue
13:59:59  <MJP> well, it does not seem to be very important for the rest of the game... it only "corrupts" the position and size of what I draw on my map while the news window rises (after that, it goes back to normal)
14:00:01  <michi_cc> This does require some diligence to make sure you carve the commits in the order they will end up in the commit history (i.e. commits that will end up further from HEAD have to be created first). If you don't do that, the result will still work, but most likely give merge conflicts on rebasing.
14:01:12  <michi_cc> Alberth: That's a bit similar to partial staging I guess. git can do it down to line level, no idea if gvim can do that too.
14:02:10  <Alberth> MJP: that sounds weird to me. Perhaps have a closer look how the news window gets risen? There have been other problems with it in the past, but I cannot remember the details (but svn blame can :) )

14:03:49  <Alberth> michi_cc: down to single characters if you want to :)    basically you get an old/new window next to each other, and you can copy/edit both in any way you like. gvim just highlights the differences for you, nothing more
14:04:18  <MJP> ok, I'll see if I can understand the problem better... seems that there is only a problem with the news window... I didn't read that code yet... anyway, those 3 modifications of window.cpp did fix my specific problem
14:05:23  <Alberth> MJP: afaik focus is only about where to draw the caret, and where to send keyboard input to. I don't understand how that would interfer with drawing stuff at the screen
14:05:44  <Alberth> perhaps your fixes force a few extra redraws or so?
14:06:39  <michi_cc> Ah, then it is not really the same as partial staging, just with a somewhat similar result. Partial staging basically means that you look at the output of git diff in your working copy and select for each diff hunk or even line if it shall be marked for the next commit or not. And if you're crazy enough you can even edit the to-be-staged diff hunk in a text editor.

14:07:56  <Alberth> michi_cc: sounds useful
14:12:04  <Alberth> when a news window rises, you get a second source of redraw requests, perhaps that interferes in some way
14:12:04  <Zuu> MJP: Why do you need to not give keyboard input focus to a text box if you are scrolling the map at the sime time?
14:13:28  <MJP> Zuu: take a look at http://www.tt-forums.net/download/file.php?id=154289
14:13:39  <Zuu> Yes, I have patch5 open here.
14:13:55  <MJP> the white box on the map moves as I scroll the extra viewport
14:14:22  <MJP> to draw that white box, I use _focused_window
14:14:57  <fonsinchen> brrr, my patches are between 2.1K and 71K in size. I definitely should restructure the whole thing ...
14:15:11  <MJP> but when the news rises, the white box has size and position of the news window and not the extraviewport I am scrolling
14:15:22  <Zuu> So you draw this white rectangle automatically if a extra viewport is open and is focused?
14:15:40  <MJP> and scrolled, yes
14:15:40  <fonsinchen> OK, the largest one is smallmap-refactor which is only syntactical sugar.
14:17:28  <Eddi|zuHause> the 64x zoom out patch starts to look interesting (basically like "smallmap in main viewport")
14:17:32  <Zuu> Is there case when news need focus? Unless changed, focus is so far used for deciding if and which text widget that should grap the key input.
14:18:25  <Zuu> Ok, I guess then scrolling a small map will qualify as grabing input.
14:18:28  <Eddi|zuHause> the space bar to close the news?
14:18:53  <MJP> Eddi|zuHause: thanks :)
14:18:54  <Zuu> Could be a global hotkey
14:19:05  <Zuu> I don't know actually, but I would guess it's global.
14:19:40  <Zuu> Meaning thas as far as no text input has focus, you can execute a global hotkey.

14:27:04  <MJP> err, no
14:28:12  <Zuu> You can just provide hooks that will end up in hotkeys.cfg without assigning default hotkeys for things that you don't think qualify to grab a key in the default config.
14:29:17  <MJP> ok, I'll do that for the next release
14:29:39  <Zuu> For example in the filter sign list window I added one to focus the text edit control. In my hotkeys.cfg I've assigned Global+Ctrl+L to it. That way whenever I press ctrl+L, that window is opened up and I can filter signs. Still, others who don't think it is important are not bothered by it.

15:33:59  <TrueBrain> things like Move are also accepted; but that is of little relevance to most :)
15:34:22  <fonsinchen> OK, I can recreate that list myself.
15:34:36  <TrueBrain> it depends on the project :)
15:35:44  <fonsinchen> I just want to make sure my commit messages look like yours and I'm notoriously mistyping them
15:37:32  <Alberth> fonsinchen: can you use a Python script? I have written a check thingie for hg
15:37:46  <fonsinchen> yes
15:38:02  <fonsinchen> a python script would also be nice
15:38:20  <TrueBrain> fonsinchen: I doubt the commit message will ever be a real issue :) And by following the wiki, at least the idea of the wiki (so the -, the: and the space), and the rest will follow :)
15:38:33  <TrueBrain> I would not worry too much if you pick the right word, like Fix, Add, ...
15:38:47  <TrueBrain> the devs already have different interpertations of it :P
15:39:21  <Alberth>  http://devs.openttd.org/~alberth/check_commit.py
15:41:17  <Alberth> but quite likely the commit message is typed again manually when merging to trunk, so I wouldn't worry too much about them
15:43:08  <fonsinchen> nice
15:43:47  <fonsinchen> I know it's not terribly important, but the commit history I have now is quite a mess and I want to properly clean it up.

16:42:05  <appe_> what kind of parameters decide whether new industries open on a normal map?
16:42:16  <Zuu> What is the state with readmes now, should content providers insert hard line breaks or not?
16:43:36  <frosch123> readmes use monospaced fonts now
16:43:50  <frosch123> so they may do any kind of ascii formatting they like to do
16:44:18  <frosch123> no idea about wrapping though

16:46:07  <appe_> no, all standard
16:46:11  <appe_> im playing online
16:46:26  <appe_> the server settings allow new industries (they occationally pop up)
16:46:40  <appe_> but i need ways to make new pop up
16:48:01  <appe_> the server settings are: manual primary ind.. ..method: none, allow multiple similar industries per town = off.
16:48:04  <appe_> that is what i find
16:49:35  <frosch123> it's random then, no chance for you to influence it
16:49:53  <Rubidium> except disabling industries at all
16:50:12  <appe_> ah, ok.

17:06:58  <TrueBrain> I wonder how hard it is to write a GRF interperter in GS :P
17:07:22  <andythenorth> to achieve some things, GS needs control of, e.g. vehicles directly,
17:07:54  <Terkhen> NewGRFs are slow already
17:08:42  <Terkhen> besides that, I don't see why the format makes a difference regarding "who has control"

17:09:40  <andythenorth> GS authors who want things like tech trees then need to provide the vehicles

19:42:15  <DorpsGek> SmatZ: -Fix [FS#4912]-ish: when fitting another engine the cargo capacity of wagons could become lower, causing them to contain more than they should. This caused the cargo transfer from the replaced parts to put even more stuff in the already full wagon. Prevent this from happening by reducing the amount of cargo in the vehicle to the capacity when moving vehicles/wagons around, or when autoreplacing
19:43:19  <andythenorth> make it a road-vehicle-only special flag, not valid for lead vehicle?
19:43:32  <frosch123> just solve it with nml
19:43:33  <frosch123> much easier
19:43:42  <andythenorth> hmm
19:43:56  <andythenorth> nml can change props dynamically in the game? :o
19:44:07  <andythenorth> can it also make tea?
19:44:32  <andythenorth> I can solve it fast with templating + liberal use of vehicle IDs
19:44:40  <andythenorth> that's my plan right now
19:44:41  <frosch123> yup, do that
19:44:52  <andythenorth> "IDs are cheap" ?
19:44:58  <frosch123> that's why we extended artic parts to more than 128
19:45:14  <andythenorth> k
19:48:45  <andythenorth> also
19:48:51  <andythenorth> I've added too many trucks :P
19:51:51  <frosch123> andythenorth: if all your articulated parts have the same refittability as the front, you might actually consider to use the same id for all articulated parts as the front
19:52:35  <frosch123> though that might cause trouble with properties like weight

20:21:37  <andythenorth> is there any problem with BANDIT disabling default trucks?
20:21:53  <andythenorth> or do I have to make that optional? :P
20:24:52  <andythenorth> hmm
20:25:18  <andythenorth> Yexo: could nml contain a macro or such for 'disable default vehicle [type]'
20:25:19  <andythenorth> ?
20:29:02  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: just leave the busses alone
20:29:32  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: disable_items()
20:29:38  <Eddi|zuHause> or something

22:27:35  <Hyronymus> yes, I do
22:27:47  <Hyronymus> want to share some stuff with you guys
22:27:49  <TrueBrain> take the invite :)
22:27:49  <Yexo> make a channel and send some invites
22:28:04  <TrueBrain> Yexo: I just invited him to dev channel :P
22:28:08  <Yexo> fine :)
22:28:17  <TrueBrain> but he doesnt have auto-join-on-invite :P
22:28:23  <planetmaker> :-)
22:30:02  <__ln__> makes me curious what's so secret it needs a private channel

22:48:42  <TrueBrain> lol; curious people :P
22:54:30  <FLHerne> So what is it? :P
22:55:05  <Yexo> a conspiracy of course!
22:57:28  <frosch123> something about replacing the forums' captcha with some ottd applet. e.g. fix the signalling of this junction to proceed
22:57:39  <FLHerne> Ooh, underground building at last :-)
22:57:51  <FLHerne> Or NewGRF penguins?
23:02:01  <planetmaker> NewGRF ice bears meet NewGRF penguin
23:02:18  <TrueBrain> hmm ... penguins
23:02:23  <TrueBrain> "does this count as annoying?!"
23:03:00  <DorpsGek> /me is bored
23:03:08  <TrueBrain> DorpsGek: again?!
23:03:14  <TrueBrain> and use action
23:03:15  <TrueBrain> not say
23:03:17  <TrueBrain> :P
23:03:17  <supermop> frosch123: that would be great for AI development, as suddenly there is an incentive for spambots to intelligently signal junctions
23:03:18  <Yexo> you must be really bored now ;p
23:03:48  <supermop> thus we co-opt all the effort of the malicious coding industry to improve our game
23:04:11  <TrueBrain> haha, lol @ who used DorpsGek, I did not expect you to say that :)
23:04:16  <TrueBrain> that is, you are not my usual suspect :P
