"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

ita, I'm sorry but I think I missed some replies during the switchover to Phoenix. Can you reiterate how you want the batch o' quotes file to be formatted for the random Buffyquote generator? If I do comma separated will that be a problem with commas in the quotes? Would semicolon separated work better?

Nilly just sent me a big batch of quotes which I can send right away.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hec, don't know how much detail you have, but the layout that we have now is:

  • character name 50 chars
  • season
  • episode
  • quote

Season and episode are optional, but nice. Commas are okay.

Read New? Oh! I didn't even realize it was there.

<edit> It works. That is so, so cool.

(Will it scan for the sidebar-ed threads, too, like COMM and this thread?)

Yep.

OK then that's one more reason for sidebar threads to appear in Message Centre.

Or maybe for it to be a preference in Profiles or whatever.

I don't understand, John. Don't they appear in the Message Center already?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I'm wondering if all the people who joined us at WX understand the message center, as that was a TT thing we all missed when we exited.

They appear on the right, where they always are, but even if you're subscribed to them, they don't appear in the list of threads in the centre column.

Just for the record, our Message Centre doesn't behave the way TT's did.

TT's showed post (X plus one) of any subscribed threads if it existed, where X is the number of the last post you read.

But, John, if you hit read new, COMM and such are there, and if you look in message center, they're on the side....(I like them on the side, as sometimes I like to catch up there first, before hitting natter, so I know what people are congratulating/condolences about, and this way it's easier to find)
