04:48.36leviMan, The Sarah Connor Chronicles is killing me.
04:51.28jackmanWhat's that?
04:52.02leviA TV show set in the Terminator mythos.
04:52.19jackmanHow well does it follow?
04:52.43leviIt's supposed to be sort of a sequel to T2.
04:53.28leviIt's been long enough since I've seen the movies that I couldn't really say how closely it follows, but I like it.

04:56.37leviWatching it one episode at a time.
04:56.37fozzmooheh.

04:57.48fozzmooIf I wasn't banging my head on IMAP to Mbox conversion I'd be right there with you.
04:57.55fozzmooWhy is this so hard?
04:58.14fozzmooSomething tells me this would be cake if I used fetchmail
04:58.25leviHeh.
04:58.27fozzmooBut I don't want to re-learn fetchmail right now.
04:58.32leviI do use fetchmail.  It's easy.
04:58.42fozzmooBut doesn't it rewrite stuff?
04:58.56leviWhat do you mean by rewrite stuff?
04:58.58fozzmooheaders.
04:59.05leviOh, I don't know.
04:59.23fozzmooI need an mbox file that I can stick in /var/spool/mail on a server.
05:00.12leviI believe that's what fetchmail is doing for me.  It's sticking all my remote mail in /var/spool/mail/levi, and then gnus grabs it from there and files it appropriately.
05:00.27leviI set it up ages ago, though, and I've forgotten about the details.
05:00.30fozzmoo:)
05:00.44fozzmooThat's kind of how fetchmail is... you learn it, write your conf file,and forget about it. :)
05:03.14leviNow I want my wife to get home so we can watch Chuck together.

21:15.13elghow do you handle disparate systems? e.g. some things are different in osx than linux
21:16.07goozbachelg: I use bzr
21:16.21elgthe particular RCS seems irrelevant
21:16.22goozbachinside the directory ~/projects/bash-settings/
21:16.25Jayce^no goozbach you *are* bizarre
21:16.35goozbachI know, I'm just telling you the entire story
21:16.40elgok good
21:16.42elgpops popcorn
21:17.02goozbachelg: I then make files in ~/projects/bash-settings/ named dot.somefile
21:17.10goozbacheg ~/projects/bash-settings/dot.bashrc
21:17.23goozbachthat file I then link to my homedir
21:17.29goozbachsymlink if possible
21:17.50goozbachnot sure if OSX's filesystems support symlinks
21:18.08elgsounds similar to what i've got so far - ~/config which contains e.g. .bashrc and friends, and symlinks into ~
21:18.15elgyeah it does
21:18.20goozbachI then have a directory ~/projects/bash-settings/profile.d which I link to ~/.profile.d
21:19.03goozbachin my .bashrc I have a loop which goes through each *.sh in ~/.profile.d and sources it
21:19.15goozbachthen it sources each *.bash
21:19.29goozbach(all the bash specific things in those files)
21:19.49sjansenhands goozbach the Rube Goldberg Award for Excellence in Convolution
21:19.50goozbachyou could extend this with a *.osx extension which would run just in osx
21:20.05elgbut it's not just osx vs linux
21:20.08goozbachsjansen: you should see my prompt
21:20.10elgit's also some systems vs others
21:20.12goozbachelg: I know
21:20.16elgbased on their purpose, etc.
21:20.19elgand it's not just bash
21:20.26goozbachmake a different extension for the different types
21:20.32elgit's everything from vim to irssi that i might want to do it for
21:20.33elgto gnupg
21:20.38goozbachahh
21:20.51goozbachthat gets complex
21:21.10elgi anticipate that the individual mechanism will be dependent on the program
21:21.11goozbachuse a distrubuted revision control system and make different branches for different servers
21:21.15elgfor bash, something like what you have
21:21.29elgi thought of that
21:21.32elgi actually did that once
21:21.36elgand it got so brittle and useless
21:21.48elgbecause a change here i'd want everywhere, but then another change i would only want locally, etc.
21:21.50goozbachmy bash system has two branches, a cxri branch, which contains all my local-to-$dayjob stuff
21:22.07elgand cherry picking is generally not well-facilitated even in distributed RCSs
21:22.14goozbachcherry pick?!
21:22.16goozbachohh
21:22.18goozbachnm
21:22.33elgso I think local changes need to shadow global settings
21:22.43goozbachhmm
21:22.48goozbachglobal settings in one file
21:22.52goozbachlocal changed in another
21:22.59goozbachs/changed/changes/
21:23.02elgright
21:23.31elgor when that's not possible, the local copy will just have to manually merge in the global ones
21:23.41elgsay, that gives me an idea
21:23.47elg~/config is the same on all hosts
21:23.48ibot...but /config is already something else...
21:23.52elgthanks bot
21:24.04goozbach~/config
21:24.05ibot/config is, like, only a storage place for things like .purple, .mozilla...
21:24.25goozbach<PROTECTED>
21:24.33goozbach~/config-local for local
21:24.35elgand ~/local is a local branch
21:24.41elga clone of ~/config
21:24.51elgbut only the locally-modified files get symlinked to ~/local
21:24.53goozbachmake sure local is called last
21:25.26elgso ~/.vimrc would be a symlink to ~/config/.vimrc but ~/.inputrc might be to ~/local/.inputrc
21:26.04elgand of course where more sophistication is allowed (the equivalent of sourceing or #include) you don't have to shadow the whole file
21:26.47elgthe fact that ~/local is a clone of ~/config, means you can pull from ~/config when you pull ~/config from another host
21:26.52elgand merge in your global changes
21:27.02elginto shadowed versions of local files
