(In reply to comment #11) > I look forward to your 50-line patch then. As I said, I have no intention in learning a language as bad as C. I’d rather rewrite the whole thing in a modern language. And I’d like even more to have someone else do it, while I do some other contribution in return. How about that? :)

So you’re essentially suggesting that it’s just extremely bloated? ^^ But hey, there doesn’t have to be a “or”. Usually the latter comes from the former. ;) > So what you're saying is that you're not going to help, but instead sit > here banging on about pride and how Windows 2000 did it and it's really > easy. Helpful! No, (Windows * still sucked). I was saying: > Maybe I’ll save 50€ and send them to you to implement it. 1€ a line > should be enough, no? ;) But I already see where this is going: Straw man arguments: First you deliberately misinterpret my statements, and then you call me an idiot because of them. Sorry mate, that won’t work. ^^ ------------------------------------------------------------ (In reply to comment #12) > Hey Navid, have you learned C yet?

Well, if it doesn’t take 50 lines, something is deeply wrong with the code. Then again it’s C and it’s 2.532 million lines of it, so that kinda answers that. ^^ PROTIP: Quick sort in Haskell: qsort (x:xs) = qsort [ i | i <- xs, i < x ] ++ [x] ++ qsort [ i | i <- xs, i >= x ] qsort [] = [] 50 lines? Hell yeah! ^^ ------------------------------------------------------------ I have no interest in the typical Internet dicks calling everyone who isn’t fitting their mind a “troll”. So you can fail with your archaic C, bloat, weird priorities and distorted perception until the end of time. Actually it’s a good thing, because the more you’re ignorant of the unfolding reality, the more those who don’t gain an edge over you. So, hey… in a way you’re still helping me. Thanks!
