yep! it's just the help text for applets and their subcommands turned into HTML via Sphinx, but i think that's very useful
<whitequark[cis]1>
it's nicer than reading text in a terminal (well, depends on your preference) and it lets people view the options without running the entire stack
<jn>
yep
<whitequark[cis]1>
something that i still think would be incredibly cool is to have a fully webusb-based deployment
<jn>
oh yeah. almost no set-up time
<jn>
for a new user
<whitequark[cis]1>
yep

please send help, i'm investigating how to build emscripten shared libraries
<whitequark[cis]1>
libtool is involved

<whitequark[cis]1>
i have solved the libtool problem by deleting the build system and replacing it with a 50 line shell script that works
<whitequark[cis]1>
we have outgrown the need for build system, as a society.

Now you have... zero problems actually
<whitequark[cis]1>
exactly
<whitequark[cis]1>
well, i have one
<whitequark[cis]1>
it doesn't work (for non-build-system-related reasons)
<galibert[m]>
it's emscripten, what did you except? :-)
<whitequark[cis]1>
i expected it to work
<galibert[m]>
I'm still always surprised when things work immediatly
<galibert[m]>
glasgow being always surprising in that area incidentally
<whitequark[cis]1>
haha, thanks ^^ an enormous amount of work went into it

a now-friend, early in his years of electronics, was building a tesla coil, and showed up on IRC one evening while he was in high school to update us on his progress, and was mentioning he was having some difficulty. he commented, 'I removed the GDT [gate drive transformer]', which resulted in the entire IRC going '?????'. I think about this a lot still. I do not know what he meant by this, because I am pretty sure he was not using
<josHua[m]>
high side gate drivers at the time. (but, on the other hand, he went on to get a PhD in power electronics, so all's well that ends well.)

'I have solved the libtool problem by deleting the build system' makes me think of this.

fair enough, no libtool -> no libtool-specific problems
<whitequark[cis]1>
i am now in emscripten hell
<jn>
that's bad enough, it doesn't need libtool to make it worse :)
