However the only mode is the puzzle-mode it doesn't have the other game mode 01:02:06 Do you like Panel de Pon game? 01:08:37 (I happen to like the Pokemon version, it is better than the original, in my opinion) 01:22:36 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 01:26:18 what about it makes it better (in your opinion)? 01:26:48 There are more options and game modes 01:27:35 ok 01:29:30 I'm looking at the guides to Pokemon puzzle league on gamefaqs so I understand 01:30:25 There are also some secret options, including one to allow 6 digits of the score; I don't know why that is even an option instead of always being 6 digits 01:31:38 And, it does work on black&white GameBoy even though it says it doesn't 01:34:16 ok 01:53:19 -!- hppavilion[1] has joined. 01:55:43 -!- Warrigal has changed nick to tswett. 01:55:50 Dammit 01:55:53 Missed him 01:56:22 Which one were you trying to not miss? 01:57:24 -!- variable has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds). 01:58:43 Okay, here's an esolang. 01:59:33 Memory is an array of numbers, initially the program source, followed by infinitely many zeros. 01:59:43 Execution consists of doing the following forever. 01:59:55 @tell fuinho_doido I have no clue what kind of search that is. Why did you ask me? <-- note that lambdabot isn't very reliable unless you know the other person is a regular in a channel with it 02:00:16 Doing the following which is what? 02:00:18 First, let x, y, and z be the values at the first three memory positions. Second, shift everything in memory three cells to the left. Third, copy z numbers from address x to address y. 02:00:21 oerjan: Oh. 02:00:23 Um. 02:00:28 Who made LambdaBot anyway? 02:00:37 hppavilion[1]: there's MemoServ which is a network-wide thing 02:00:40 Cale, I think... maybe? 02:00:47 for that, they need to be registered, though 02:01:10 ...and they aren't. 02:01:42 tswett: OK.

It also provides a collation for comparing IRC nicknames with ISO 646, so that can also be used 02:10:03 oerjan: right, it's an FSM. 02:10:56 what kinds of functionality shall I add? 02:11:44 `loudly This. 02:11:45 ​This. 02:12:10 That command is probably my greatest accomplishment ever. 02:12:24 Let's settle down 02:12:29 I'm not THAT good of a programmer 02:12:31 xD 02:14:42 Well, can you automatically turn the string "hello world" into "-h_e-l_l-o_ -w_o-r_l-d"? 02:14:47 Because that's essentially what this is doing. 02:14:59 Perhaps I should implement polls? 02:15:05 For voting and stuff? 02:15:11 tswett: i'm pretty sure /// is a greater accomplishment than that hth 02:16:07 oerjan: you're right. 02:16:10 I have thought of using NS SET PROPERTY to implement polls 02:17:35 Another way is RDF survey. 02:18:11 Should I add a "_mourn" feauture 02:18:15 *feature? 02:18:37 Basically, when a user leaves, it rather annoyingly mourns their "death" on command 02:18:39 NO 02:18:49 USERNAME! 02:19:04 (S)HE WAS SO YO-O-O-OUNG 02:19:06 * hppavilion[1] sobs 02:19:10 NOOOOO 02:19:16 NO!

Also there are 32 opcodes; that is all that fits.) 03:45:04 All registries are 64 bit in this xD 03:45:10 Ah 03:45:47 Well, this one uses 16-bit memory cells. There are no separate registers; even the program counter is memory-mapped. 03:45:56 Interesting 03:46:49 The assembler provides GOTO, RETURN, DEC, and INC instructions, but all of those are just built-in macros, not actual instructions. 03:48:05 Cool 03:48:30 The instruction byte contains the 5-bit opcode, 3-bits per operand (there are three operands), and then one bit tells it that it has a predicate branch and one more bit tells it that it should store its result. 03:48:37 I'm a monster xDF 03:48:39 *xD 03:48:44 I'm implementing my ISA in Python 03:48:47 zzo38: What do you think of the Mill architecture? 03:48:49 It's just the prototype 03:48:52 But still 03:48:56 shachaf: I don't know. 03:49:00 xF 03:49:18 -!- PinealGl1ndOptic has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 03:49:20 zzo38: You might like it. 03:49:30 OK, what is it? 03:49:50 The files are just flat binaries 03:49:54 Is that a good idea? 03:50:08 hppavilion[1]: That can work. 03:50:12 OK 03:50:28 Is there something better I could do? 03:50:30 QUACKVM binaries consist of a series of banks, where each bank starts with the bank size. 03:50:42 But if you don't need banks then just plain binary data works. 03:51:20 -!- variable has changed nick to trout. 03:51:26 OK 03:51:44 Hi, variable/trout! 03:51:52 hppavilion[1]: hi! 03:52:03 :) 03:52:10 Do you know anything about binary file formats? 03:52:11 * trout wonders what happens if he tries hppavilion[2] or hppavilion[-1] 03:52:15 hppavilion[1]: depends on the format 03:52:28 now a bit about html, and random archive formats 03:52:30 The instructions in my system are do more than one thing, such as ADD will add together the first two operands and that will be the result, and then the predicate succeeds if the result is greater than the value of the third operand. 03:52:31 nothing about images 03:53:10 hppavilion[-1] returns the same as hppavilion[1] as hppavilion is a 1-item list and uses pythonic list comprehension 03:53:40 (You can ignore the result and/or the predicate due to the instruction encoding; you can even ignore both but that isn't so useful, but it does allow an instruction byte with a value of zero to mean no operation.) 03:54:41 hppavilion[1]: oh, I thought it was a C style pointer 03:54:57 No 03:55:00 It's a list index 03:55:34 It's equivalent to hppavilion.get(1), assuming get gets an item from a list 03:56:58 My VM supports two files for each program, the ROM file and the disk file (optional); currently only the Minesweeper game uses the disk file (to store game statistics), and it will check if it does not exist and still work correctly without it. 03:57:41 (Both files have the same format, although bank numbering in the ROM file starts at 0 and goes up, while the bank numbering in the disk file starts at -1 and goes down.) 04:00:56 The instruction set and assembler syntax resemble the Z-machine just a little bit. 04:01:40 How many lines is lambdabot btw 04:02:03 I don't know 04:04:15 However I also wanted to know your opinions about the draft of the document of SOUND and EXTOP commands since those currently are draft. Even if they can be as is, their implementation is remain to be optional 04:12:02 zzo38: Wait, I thought the IS was frozen... 04:12:50 Yes, except the SOUND and EXTOP which aren't even implemented yet. Those instructions are still SOUND and EXTOP, although some details about their semantics are only draft so far 04:13:01 should I add devanagari? 04:13:21 Also it is possible in future that further input devices for use with INPUT command might be added, although their implementation will be optional; only device 1 is required 04:14:36 -!- Walpurgisnacht has quit (Quit: Fuck me). 04:18:19 Also EXTOP can be used to define extensions; the number of extensions is unlimited. 04:20:19 Ugh 04:20:25 I don't feel like implementing this xD 04:20:49 If only I could defer the document to someone else xD 04:23:04 If you post a copy of document to public then anyone could try to implement 04:33:07 I know 04:33:08 But... 04:33:12 I don't know xD 04:35:37 ⌚⌛ 04:37:24 -!- Thisbe has quit (Quit: Thisbe). 04:43:25 I'm manually compiling a file xD 04:44:13 Manually compiling what file?

04:55:02 The instructions are each 2 bytes, followed by a 1 byte arglength indicator, followed by n 8-byte args where n is the ord() of the arglength 04:55:20 SET takes a registry and a list of values 04:55:28 Then sets that registry to that value 04:55:34 Then the next registry to the next value 04:55:39 Then the next registry to the next value 04:55:45 etc... until it runs out of values 04:55:50 Ah, OK. 04:55:51 It makes string handling MUCH easier 04:56:03 I assume 04:56:26 Can you have different formats of arguments?

Nethack has such a hard cap of 1000 weight units, no matter what type of monster or how strong you are, but maybe D&D doesn't. 15:19:40 -!- nycs has joined. 15:19:43 Eg. if the target is already of strength 30 and is a beast of burden with a special ability to have extra carrying capacity when the stuff is on their saddle, does it still increase their carrying cap? 15:20:08 As far as I know D&D doesn't, so yes it may increase carrying capacity beyond whatever, I think 15:20:36 "Cause a circular area of the ground to rotate." -- sounds good, but for how long duration? how deep does it go? can I use this to burst water pipes in a building? 15:21:06 "Make any spell language-dependent." -- what does that mean? 15:21:41 "Penalize target for any magic they are using." -- sure, that can work if you balance it right. 15:21:54 wait, any magic, not only spells? 15:21:56 even items? 15:21:56 hmm 15:22:06 Those are good question, some details I don't know (including the spell level) so I didn't mention them. 15:22:32 But I would expect most durations aren't very long (you could use metamagic to extend them), but some might last longer 15:22:32 "Automatically alphabetize the pages of a book." -- um, one page as a unit, or can it move entries around within a page too? 15:23:14 Wait, I have a non-D&D question related to that 15:23:15 in the list 15:23:28 http://scifi.stackexchange.com/q/95289/4918 15:24:33 "Make any spell language-dependent" would mean you can make up a language-dependent fireball so that it does not damage those who do not speak your language, was my idea 15:24:47 "Use one spell to determine which of two other spells to apply." -- as in a low-leve divination spell? sure, could work 15:25:19 ah! can it work the other way, damaging only those who don't speak that language? 15:25:37 this could be useful, yes 15:25:48 b_jonas: No, language-dependent doesn't work that way, unless you apply language-dependency to a protection spell instead and then cast the damaging spell as normal. 15:26:03 hmm ok 15:27:04 you can try to use this language-dependent fireball to fry elven spies who speak elven, with some false positives. would cull cultural diversity quickly if it spreaded. 15:27:13 but yes, it's a good idea. 15:27:58 "Suppress a spell during even-numbered rounds of its duration." -- oh no, phasing! 15:28:52 "Delay a spell according to weight or hit points of target." -- um what? this coudl mean anything, just like that other delay thing. 15:29:04 "Create an extra timelike dimension." -- um... I don't see how that would work 15:29:20 "Change an effect that normally has a minimum of 1 or 0 to instead have 15:29:36 no minimum (e.g. 3 damage with DR 5 heals you 2 points)." -- no way. not without some very strong limits enumerating on what it can do. otherwise this can break everything. 15:29:42 Well, I do not see how "Create an extra timelike dimension" would work either; that one is just strange 15:30:07 b_jonas: My limits in my mind were a 9th-level spell that affects only one thing one time, but maybe that isn't enough I don't know 15:31:16 like, it will allow you to summon -100 fiendish wolves with a Summon Monster II spell 15:32:02 or maybe not 15:32:05 but crazy stuff like that 15:32:32 Summon Monster II doesn't seem to work that way 15:33:08 It doesn't allow you to select how many 15:33:15 I mean, that spell is basically like Look at Me, I'm R&D, which is something you can never allow outside silver bordered land 15:33:48 Also I didn't intend it would affect any number you choose anyways; only calculated results can be affected. 15:33:52 Oh, it removes a limit? 15:33:56 https://github.com/alevchuk/vim-clutch awesome 15:34:16 Then it's like that hypothetical card that removes a word from a card, which was too scary to even be silver-bordered. 15:34:23 From the text of a card that is. 15:34:28 Or a sentence or something. 15:34:42 Just no. 15:35:06 "Detect if an item is a suitable component for a spell." -- sure, good idea 15:35:11 we always need more divination spells 15:35:25 "Variant of True Seeing: Simply view things as if all magic was absent." -- um... I dunno 15:35:46 At least my brother, as well as the DM of the game I am in, likes that variant of True Seeing 15:36:02 "Make a single dice roll in advance." -- hmm, isn't that basically like a re-roll one dice ability, just a bit better? 15:36:25 Ok, maybe not, because it doesn't easily let you re-roll multiple dice that are rolled together. 15:36:44 "Feign invisibility." -- what is that? an SEP field? 15:36:48 Sometimes it is better, sometimes worse, I suppose. 15:36:55 I don't even know what "SEP field" means? 15:37:09 as in the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy 15:37:35 -!- marginale has joined. 15:37:48 -!- rodgort has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 15:37:53 I don't know what SEP means; luckily it's somebody else's problem 15:38:07 "Create a map of the area (only fixed features)." -- magic mapping, sure 15:38:20 myname: Thank you I didn't know that! I don't really need such thing but it can be helpful to know how these footpedal are hacked to be programmed for released 15:38:32 "Change an object into its mirror-image form." -- uh, is this a spell that requires biochemistry knowledge to DM or something? 15:38:57 b_jonas: anitmatter takes care of itself quickly 15:39:01 *antimatter 15:39:07 Actually I wrote some draft like that once and it said it explicitly does not affect biochemistry or antimatter or whatever. 15:39:08 "Make any surface into a mirror." -- ok 15:39:21 as long as it's some ordinary cheap mirror, not a very valuable one 15:39:35 b_jonas: heh, can that be used to blind monsters? 15:39:45 Yes, an ordinary cheap mirror. 15:40:02 int-e: probably no, you can't target them 15:40:04 (turning the surface of their eyes into a mirror 15:40:06 ) 15:40:23 No you can't do that you have to target unattended object or your own object 15:40:34 int-e: no, that'd be similar to targetting an item in their inventoyr, it's banned for normal magic that targets object, except when explicitly written. 15:41:26 "Force target to decide his action in advance." -- oh, can work, as long as it doesn't last very long 15:42:23 "Redirect damage from summoned creatures to yourself." -- sure, at least if you have to cast this when they're not very far from you, like within your visual range 15:43:09 "Apply metamagic to opponent's spell." -- ugh... I'm not sure. this would have to restrict what kind of metamagic, at which point it's better to have separate spells for slowing down an opponent's spell, delaying it, reducing its effect, etc. 15:43:38 "Save part of the duration of a spell for later." -- could work, at least in most cases. 15:44:02 but only if it requires you to still hold that spell slot as used as long as you're saving the spell 15:44:17 otherwise you could delay spells for a year and then discharge them all in a battle 15:44:25 Gain a temporary slot prepared with the spell that would be the least 15:44:31 -!- rodgort has joined. 15:44:38 Yes you have to still hold the slot and there would be a limited amount too, you can't save it indefinitely! 15:44:43 useful one in the current situation. -- um... that sounds very useless, but ok 15:45:23 Wait, why'd you ever cast that, instead of just preparing or casting a useless spell to that slot? 15:45:25 b_jonas: It is a kind of divination, so not too useless. And even if they think it is the least useful one, you could figure out how to use it anyways... 15:46:17 I'd just prepare some other mostly useless spell instead. 15:46:23 I don't see what I'd lose. 15:47:01 "Change one gem into another of equal value." -- a restricted transmutation on items? sure! 15:47:11 but needs some limits on the quantity probably 15:47:45 -!- marginale has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 15:48:06 Yes clearly does have limit on quantity, like most spells would have. 15:48:36 "Cause target to believe he is your parent." -- what? a Darth Vader spell? 15:49:33 "Create coloured water (functions like normal water)." -- um, if this didn't exist, couldn't you just use prestidigitation to create those kinds of paints they use to debug where the cooling liquid pipes of a car is leaking? 15:49:51 but ok, it could work as a spell 15:49:59 Prestidigitation may make it temporary I think 15:50:06 it's just that I think those paints are very cheap so it's not worth a spell slot 15:50:11 you _want_ it temporary 15:50:24 you need it for up to a few days, until you've debugged the problem 15:50:45 if it's temporary, you won't have stains remaining on the insides of the car 15:51:17 But you could make a more powerful variant: 15:51:23 Yes, but this isn't to do pipes in the car, there isn't the such thing in this game. It is so you can do in the time of just one spell to create it work colours 15:51:36 In place 15:52:19 mark water or oil in such a way that it's not colored or radioactive or changed in its function, but you can still detect it with some magical means easily. 15:52:45 That isn't my intention though 15:53:02 That would be useful for doctors, because they could apply it more easily than the current methods which generally require radioactivity or other markers. 15:53:12 And the level could depend on how detailed image you can get. 15:53:35 Eg. to get something like a high-powered MR image with contrast material, you'd need a high-level detection spell. 15:54:10 But to just find in which of two bays the underground river flows into, you'd need a lower level detection spell. 15:57:09 -!- Virgolang_ has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 15:58:28 -!- Virgolang_ has joined. 15:58:51 -!- marginale has joined. 16:03:28 One example of apply metamagic to opponent's spell might be to extend the duration of an opponent's spell without their knowledge 16:03:59 (But it isn't limited to opponent's either; you can use with other spellcaster on your team too) 16:05:46 without their knowledge? 16:06:37 One example of causing one spell to start when another one ends might be, that Drawmij's Instant Summons is discharged when you summon an item so that can trigger another spell, or Explosive Runes will be discharged when the runes exploded, or Invisibility ends once all targets of the spell have attacked, etc 16:08:46 -!- marginale has quit (Excess Flood). 16:09:43 (It also doesn't work if the spell used to cause this delay expires before the other one does.) 16:10:51 Also some spells have random durations so it could be affected by that too 16:11:27 Can you answer my other questions though before I posted that list of spell? 16:12:07 What were your other questions? 16:12:50 See in the log what it was 16:12:54 -!- Virgolang_ has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 16:13:16 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds). 16:13:51 Maybe I will find and copy it, let me see 16:13:51 "Can a claw on a bat's feet that can be use for sleeping upsidedown to prevent it from being used like a humanoid feet under the assumption that you do not need to walk faster than ten inches per second (by which I mean not running, flying, swimming, climbing, riding in an elevator, or whatever)?" 16:13:58 Yes that is one of them 16:14:54 I don't know that one. 16:15:01 I didn't see any other question. 16:15:38 O, I hoped someone would know this answer (but I did also post another question, is the experiment required?) 16:15:44 Although I did post many other questions 16:18:16 But my brother did not know the answer either; he asked me a question and I replied with another question in order to guess the answer 16:21:29 How would you make such an experiment anyways? 16:30:42 But my other (unrelated) question was if you have any objections to the definition of SOUND and EXTOP opcodes of QUACKVM before they are made finalized. 16:50:13 -!- Virgolang_ has joined. 16:50:48 -!- marginale has joined. 16:53:39 -!- marginale has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 16:54:30 -!- Virgolang__ has joined. 16:57:42 -!- Virgolang_ has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 16:57:50 -!- Virgolang__ has changed nick to Virgolang_. 17:11:06 -!- Virgolang_ has changed nick to jerrylorrly. 17:15:24 [wiki] [[Whirl]] http://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=44108&oldid=36815 * 94.62.69.164 * (-110) 17:16:47 Who does know these questions? 17:19:06 [wiki] [[CHIQRSX9+]] http://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=44109&oldid=40694 * 94.62.69.164 * (+16) /* Examples */ 17:39:42 -!- jerrylorrly has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 17:53:14 -!- bb010g has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity). 18:02:49 -!- ais523 has joined. 18:05:42 "Do I see the moon shining?"

Most of the VM (including that part) is now frozen and will not be changed. The documentation isn't though, and some other details also might be changed before done 21:15:24 zzo38: certainly, but this way an implementation can't optimize it either. 21:15:29 -!- Patashu has joined. 21:15:52 Yes, that is true. Still that part won't be changed 21:16:06 You could solve this by saying in the documentation that you're not allowed to store the instruction pointer with indirect stores, and that if you load it indirectly it will give an undefined value. 21:17:16 Programs already do use stuff like "PUT ,,X" to unconditionally jump to the label X (the included assembler provides a GOTO macro that compiles into this though) 21:18:05 zzo38: why wouldn't you use the non-indirect instructions, ADD or OR for that instead? 21:18:30 let's say OR for simplicity 21:18:34 The encoding ends up shorter with PUT, for one thing. 21:18:49 does it now? hmm 21:19:06 Yes it does 21:19:07 anyway, minor comments if you can't change this 21:19:26 An implementation still could optimize it but it would have to be able to disable the optimization when such things like that occur. 21:19:28 but document how the instruction format works anyway, because I wouldn't have guessed it from the docsw 21:19:38 Yes I am currently documenting that. 21:19:38 heck, I wouldn't even have guessed that you have the isntructions mapped to the memory 21:19:45 I thought they were in a separate code memory 21:20:04 ok, so minor comments 21:20:29 Yes, OK I will mention that they are mapped in the same memory (self-modifying code is also possible) 21:21:10 Can we do "Part of a series on..." boxes on the Wiki? 21:21:23 2. in the docs for LOAD/SAVE, it's not clear what starting address in the memory the load/store uses. 21:21:47 3. in put, which operand are you writing? the second or the third? 21:22:11 4. in PRINTT, s/with any/without any/ 21:22:12 Thank you for noticing that; it is the third. 21:22:40 I fixed that. (I will store them in the .zip after I finished fixing all of them) 21:23:19 The starting address for LOAD/SAVE is equal to the size of bank 0. 21:23:25 5. in PRINTC, the cursor move control codes you use seem to be strange, I thought they would be 8=move left, 10=move down, 11=move up, 12=move right 21:23:47 6. s/corsor/cursor/ 21:24:04 7. is there some reason why CLS is a separate instruction rather than a control code for PRINTC? 21:24:25 I don't know why I did that 21:24:53 But it is true that 10=move down; the documentation was wrong 21:24:57 I fixed it 21:25:24 8. It seems strange to me that you say the multiplication result of MUL isn't allowed to overflow an int16_t. I think you're just making arithmetic unnecessarily difficult with this. Would there be a drawback of making the result always modulo 65536? 21:26:13 Well, I do not see why it is so important that you would need to be able to do such multiplication, but OK. 21:26:41 I deleted that paragraph from the errors section now. 21:27:19 9. It might be too late for that, but I wondered why you don't have an arithmetic instruction for variable right shift (signed or unsigned, your choice if you document it). 21:27:34 It seems to be missing from the instruction set. I know you have a division but still. 21:28:34 You are right I don't, you have to use division instead. 21:28:34 10. For SOUND, how can you tell where the packed code ends? Is there a length or terminating code somewhere? Or is it the sign bit of the 32-byte value of which six five-byte values are used? 21:28:44 Hello? 21:28:55 that's about all I think 21:28:58 It is the same as the text, which I have not documented. 21:28:59 hppavilion[1]: pong 21:29:03 OK 21:29:08 It is the sign bit of each 16-bit cell though. 21:29:12 Can we do, for example, infoboxes in articles? 21:29:13 ok 21:29:19 Or is that part of a plugin Esolangs doesn't have? 21:29:22 I think you should mention that in the docs then 21:29:35 I mean like a box of links that you can expand at the bottom of an article 21:29:40 Don't remember what they're called 21:29:43 Yes I should add the section about the text packing 21:29:48 Currently it isn't documented 21:30:20 No one? 21:30:25 Answer plz :, 21:30:26 ( 21:30:46 Maybe you could put a right shift (and some bitwise ops) in the LONGCALC instruction instead. 21:31:02 hppavilion[1]: I don't know either, but it could be done with templates I think, no extra plugin is needed 21:31:16 zzo38: OK 21:32:07 I'm considering creating an article or series of articles on time and space complexity 21:32:32 -!- oerjan has joined. 21:33:48 I'm not sure I understand all of the instruction encoding part of the code though. 21:34:18 Well, I am documenting that now 21:34:19 It has eight addressing modes for the three input arguments each, plus some magic for both the condition code and the output. 21:35:24 That is correct 21:37:17 ah, so longcalc gives the low word of the result as the result, and optionally stores the high word 21:38:38 It stores both the low and high word optionally. I did not document LONGCALC yet (I have only partially done) 21:39:04 "stores both the low and high word optionally" that's not what it looked like in the source but ok 21:39:58 You can't tell it to store only one; it stores both if told to do so. 21:40:07 ok 21:41:03 good night now. 21:44:01 And actually it is possible I might add a few more control codes into PRINTC to make bold on/off, but I don't expect to add anything more.

Part of the template. 23:18:00 You just \addpublication[]{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} (it takes a lot of arguments) and it adds it to the publication list, the list of author's contributions, adds the article cover divider page thing, and includes PDF content. 23:20:33 my figures were made in xfig (hybrid tex / postscript mode) 23:21:03 -!- atrapado has quit (Quit: Leaving). 23:22:32 I have not needed figures so far, although I could do using rules, making symbols with METAFONT, etc, or if it is necessary even to use a program that can make it in PCL format. 23:23:15 I kind of like TikZ, although there's high chance of wasting time in figuring out how to do something in a fancy declarative way, when you could be done in ten minutes with absolute coordinates. 23:23:46 http://www.orenwatson.be/speliG.htm 23:24:20 (The "hpfile" special could be used to include any PCL graphics into the document) 23:25:20 I usually just made a SVG in inkscape and then included it 23:25:26 For a course I was half-teaching, I did a lot of TikZ plotting for the exercises. You can call into gnuplot so that on the first round of processing, it writes some files you run gnuplot on, and then later it uses the results from gnuplot to draw the figures. 23:25:51 It can also call gnuplot on its own, but that requires some flags to let TeX call external programs. 23:29:42 enE coments on mI nU speliG sistM? 23:29:49 Once I did try to include a picture in a TeX document by converting the picture into PCL format with ImageMagick and then referencing it, but I just got a mess on the output; do you know what is wrong?
