When somebody who isn't pg learns ARC, maybe they will fix the URL parser, and add standard quote syntax.

- kick 7y agoHN stopped releasing source ages ago. There's a community-maintained fork, but the site we're currently using is opaque.
- microcolonel 7y agoSure, but if somebody made > terminate URIs properly in one of the forks, it might osmose into HN. One can dream. You can tell that they're still using the same broken code that is in the old ARC distribution.
- kick 7y agoHN actually has many improvements from the last Arc distribution, speaking as a person who runs my own fork of Anarki and used to run my own fork of the Arc distribution.
- krapp 7y agoUnfortunately, they can't distribute their improvements, due to not having the time or YCombinator not wanting to give up some of their "special sauce" for dealing with spammers and vote rigging, etc. And for what it's worth (which is likely very little) as a contributor to Anarki, support for > is on my list of things to add to sometime in the (mumble) future. Not that it will do HN much good.
