The Dell 2*50 series are VERY loud. Unless this one is unusually quiet, I wouldn't recommend it for home hosting. ;-) I'm happy to help with the configuration, and I'll see if I can pull some local strings to get it hosted. Ping me off-list and we'll talk about it. -jeff On Thu, 14 Jan 20

in #parrotsketch last week i brought up the interesting output of parrot_config, and allison asked for an RFC. here it is. most parrot_config values are literal strings, simple enough. for example: ldflags => ' -L/usr/local/lib' libdir => '/usr/local/lib' libexecdir => '/usr/local/libexec' o

dynops and multiple interpreters

2009-03-08 Thread Jeff Horwitz
i ran into a major stumbling block during my latest mod_parrot hackathon. mod_parrot supports global, per-server, and per-section interpreter pools. new interpreters are created using Parrot_new, passing in the parent interpreter if one has already been created. all of this works great when t

i just wrote a custom mod_parrot filehandle PMC that sends output back to the Apache client. i can assign it to stdout using the setstdout opcode and all "prints" and "says" are magically sent back to the client. this required for registry-style scripts and PHP. i need to do the same for stdi
