11:31.35 Yoshi47 "initial release of a new graphical user interface for BRL-CAD geometry editing" expected timeline? what you guys think of the new freecad?
11:40.08 Yoshi47 so IBME is the new GUI?
11:40.14 Yoshi47 is archer canceled?
12:28.55 starseeker Yoshi47: where are you looking?
12:29.08 Yoshi47 was in the wiki
12:29.37 starseeker archer isn't canceled - it's the first step
12:29.43 Yoshi47 oh ok
12:29.50 Yoshi47 then whats this IBME exactly
12:30.24 Yoshi47 is there a fulltime programmer on Archer?
12:30.26 starseeker Archer is a cleanup, reorg, and rework of the Tcl/Tk MGED
12:30.39 starseeker we work on it when we have time
12:30.45 Yoshi47 ah
12:31.38 starseeker the true "next generation" interface will look a lot more like what someone would expect a CAD system to look like, but it's a radical departure and we can't just abandon those who use our Tcl/Tk libs/resources
12:32.34 starseeker Archer is a radical enough departure from MGED - in effect it's an attempt to do "MGED with modern user interface conventions"
12:39.57 Yoshi47 right
13:35.38 ``Erik heh http://dto.github.com/notebook/remix-this-game.html

16:51.39 yukonbob hello, #brlcad
16:57.47 starseeker hello, yukonbob :-)
17:18.02 yukonbob starseeker: happy monday. how're things?
17:18.45 starseeker not too bad - still wading through libregex
17:19.08 starseeker getting close though :-)
17:19.49 starseeker yay, freetype patent expired!
17:22.16 starseeker yeep - how can a "Desktop Quick Reference" be 640 pages??
17:45.27 Yoshi47 starseeker, so that means anyone can use it freely and redistribute it too?
17:53.00 starseeker what, freetype?
17:53.33 starseeker http://www.freetype.org/patents.html
18:36.10 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r39846 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/red.c:
18:36.10 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: OK, enabling regex based red command. Still a lot of cleanup to do as far as
18:36.10 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: directing error messages to the right place, making sure all the error returns
18:36.10 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: free memory properly, etc - working on that now. One or two 'need whitespace
18:36.10 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: only here' sanity checks to add yet

20:45.37 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r39848 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/red.c: Add more memory-freeing calls to various return clauses
20:59.32 CIA-93 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r39849 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/red.c: Tweak whitespace regex, add in check for garbage between combtree tag and first comb tree entry
21:00.55 starseeker Well, not sure if that's the "proper" way to use regex but it seems to be doing OK here
21:28.39 psilva_ anyone headed to siggraph?
21:55.27 *** join/#brlcad Alexandrus (~nil@pD953D623.dip.t-dialin.net)
21:55.29 Alexandrus moin();
21:56.10 Alexandrus is there some support for windings/screw threads in brlcad?
22:09.56 Alexandrus oh, i guess i found it unter "coils" in effective modelling
22:33.48 *** join/#brlcad R0b0t1 (~Enigma@unaffiliated/r0b0t1)
23:40.18 starseeker regrets Alexandrus didn't stay around to find out about the coil tool
