Thanks Sven - I’ll ping the guy at dpaste and ask - I was just curious if I was missing something obvious in encoding… his docs are sparse.
Muy point about stfx vs dpaste is that the latter uses one of those js syntax highlighting libraries (not sure what you use) and so you get something that looks quite nice (not knocking stfx but maybe it could use one of them too) - but more critically (for me trying to help exercism users communicate on this forum to ask code questions), it doesn’t seem like I can store something like - http://dpaste.com/218RW5G (I get a 400, which I guess is the size limit, as smaller examples work - e.g. http://ws.stfx.eu/64XPQAYR2YTU <http://ws.stfx.eu/64XPQAYR2YTU> Tim > On 17 May 2019, at 11:15, Sven Van Caekenberghe <s...@stfx.eu> wrote: > > Tim, > >> On 17 May 2019, at 11:57, Tim Mackinnon <tim@testit.works> wrote: >> >> Thanks for chipping in Sven - I’d asked Ben for some help as I’d seen him on >> discord - that solution does indeed work. >> >> See: http://dpaste.com/218RW5G (which isn’t bad - not sure about he red >> boxes around things, but the smalltalk highlighting is quite good (pygments >> I think), although there is another one that exercism use - whose name >> evades me). >> >> This same example doesn’t work on Stfx - I get a 400 error, which I assumed >> was size, although 2k should give you a decent chunk of text - but I guess >> showing a package of code or a stack trace does blow through that.
