@mavica_again oh you use SciTE as well, nobody else i know uses it or seems to have even heard of it
@krishean it's the only text editor i could find that 1. didn't have 100 dependencies 2. didn't try to override windowmaker window trimmings and window title
@krishean do you know how to make it start without the window size being bigger than my desktop resolution
@mavica_again yes, you can create a config file to set the initial window size, or have it start fullscreen, i can look up the properties you would have to set
~/.SciTEUser.properties
position.left=100
position.top=100
position.width=1000
position.height=600
position.maximize=1
there's config options for pretty much everything in the menus including having line numbers on by default, indentation settings, the status bar, even what commands are run when you hit F5/F7/etc
@mavica_again This is phenomenally gorgeous!
@mavica_again yeah fonts are something i haven't figured out how to fix in it, on mine underscores completely disappear at certain zoom levels
@krishean i'm trynig to use the ttfs straight out of windows xp and they display with hinting perfectly inside windowmaker which uses pango. but gtk apps make random letters too bold ??? like a stupid rounding error. i can't fathom it. i hate it
@mavica_again It runs Arch btw. :)
@drwho i'd use something else if i686/pentium4 hadn't been dropped from pretty much all apt-based distros
@mavica_again That makes sense.
@mavica_again @drwho Nice!
Did you try [Antix Linux](https://antixlinux.com/)? It's a debian based distro for older hardware. Works great on my Thinkpad T40.
@delightfuldude @drwho not keen on throwing away all the work i already put in it
by the way have you tried Windows 10? audio drivers work great first time every time
@mavica_again @drwho why don't you stick with win10 on your T42 when works so great?
it's loading the right font, but the hinting is totally fucked up. i have no idea why
year of the linux desktop everybody
