Uh Perl 5 is in ACTIVE development and has gotten new features. Everything you said about Perl 5 is wrong. Perl 7 (skipping Perl 6 obviously) is on the table and being talked about and Perl 5.34.0 is going to be released in a couple months

There's a Tcl blast from the past.

BECAUSE is a great reason to do it.

I used the feedback on the site. Is that ok?

This is an excellent resource. Thanks.

Wow, so very sad.

If there was no threat, it would not have happened.

You just described just about every OS that isn't Microsoft of Apple. Good luck with that attitude.

Use pandoc to export or transform it (if you can).

Isn't that exactly what is happening in Java land now?

The core developers are very thoughtful bunch on what gets into Tcl as well. It's nice to watch the back and forth traffic.

The good thing is that it is under a grant to get the work done. Should be interesting to watch it get fleshed out.

Agreed. Now both projects can more forward for whatever someone's definition of forward means. I am just glad it happened.

It wouldn't surprise me if Signal was working on something like this already.

They would have to apply that metric to ALL communication apps. I don't think it would fly.

No, but that doesn't mean they aren't just as bad.

I absolutely hate the way Go does packages. I've heard they've improved it, so maybe I need to take another look.

No, not even close. It is 100% ethical to sell software but not the source to it. It isn't a social obligation of any kind to do so. You may choose to do so but you can't force that choice on others.

If I was building one, I would buy it. It is very cool.

It sounds like their move to GitLab is really helping development. I hope that trends continues for them. Xfce is a great DE.

He didn't say it never has bugs. It does have a great track record and Dr. Hipp fixes things quickly when found.

It must not be in the windows build yet. I downloaded the daily and it still doesn't remember. I'll keep checking though as I do like Kate. Thanks!

It still doesn't remember its Window size/position on Windows.

Facebook does it and they mostly suck at it too. At that level, you just make the changes.
