way cool !

i'm green with envy, i have neither the motivation nor the round tuits to get beyond the logging in stage myself. partly because i'm trying to write the whole damn thing efficiently, at once, rather than just checking i know how things work, and partly because "i'm lazy".

*smiles* Well don't forget I have nothing else to do and this is something that's keeping me sane :)

Plus it really is incredibly simple. OK so far I haven't got anything user-interface-wise, but the bare bones are stupidly easy :)

ah, yes. (g)ui-design is half of what's holding me back ;-)

Hardest bit to do well of any project. At least with text-only it's slightly easier! This is where I wish I paid attention in "Human Computer Interaction" lectures!

Dammit Phil! I come back from lunch and find my "Inbox" has 4,642 emails in it from you saying "This Is a Test From My Client"!

[Well, I'm assuming they all say that - I've only looked at 162 of 'em so far...]

Who's gonna come and delete all these, huh?

I guess I'll just have to get my ass over there and delete them all for you with yet another nifty utility I could write :)

Though be warned, my software comes with no warranty!

Nah... that's okay... I'm deleting 'em as I look thru 'em. 353 done so far.

I am assuming and hoping in a HUUGE way, *coughs*, That you are joking... aren't you? Please??

Har. Of course. I couldn't be that dumb, could I?

Could I? ;)

okay, I know what a keyboard is, I recognise a mouse when I see one, I've used IRC clients for about 5 or 6 years, I can post to lj and write emails; tell me, just what have you done and should it be something I want/need to have/won't survive without?
Any geeky or techie talk will be cheerfully ignored...now there's a mission for you to keep you occupied, write exactly what it is you've done in non techie talk, ohh did I say please anywhere?

*grins*
Well it depends on how you write your LJ entries, I guess. If you write them using the Windows client, it's easy to explain. All I have done is write another client that is capable of uploading journal entries and a few other bits and pieces from any computer that can use a Perl script (it's a different programming language.)

If you don't use the windows client, I'm stumped - it's late and my brain is fried - will try later.

Thanks, clear as mud. No actually, understood perfectly...what is it they say is a girl's best friend, perl? oh no, it's diamonds. ;)
