Thats not the chatterbox though!

Er, where did that come from?

Er, my proposal isn't a change to perlmonks. All it would change is how certain outside programs interact with perlmonks. The cb would still function exactly the same as it does now, it would just help certain outside programs.

>bleh* I should've just stayed quiet, it's best when nobody says anything and nothing changes
What kind of attitude is that? Stagnation is never good.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
