Anonymous BBS

I want to set up a message board in my own language.
What do you recomand:
1.Shiichan
2.Kareha
3.Others( if so what?)

Kareha.

write your own using perlhp and mysql

>>3
write your own using python and PostgreSQL
FIXED

Why do we need another goddamn board?
There's already over nine thousand.

A database is unnecessary overhead for a text board, srsly.

>>6 is not an EXPERT PROGRAMMER

>>6
so is a web server, srsly.

Write it yourself, make it good, release it. That way there will at least be one BBS that doesn't suck shit.

Wakaba and Kareha are "good," in that they're stable, sanely written, easily modified, and offer a decent variety of features. Their only problem is they're one-board systems and there's no way to configure it besides hacking a text file. That's not a major drawback -- in fact, it might even be seen as a feature, since it means fewer retards hosting their own chan to be "cool" -- but it's a bit annoying having to either ssh to my host and use vi, or scp the config.pl back and forth. Sometimes I'd just rather click a button.

Incidentally, I am writing my own (image) board. It whips Trevorchan's arse, not that it's hard to do, and it even improves on Wakaba in a couple of places, but it still needs lots more testing and a full security audit before I'll even consider giving it out.

BTW: Python, and either PostgreSQL, SQLite, or (last resort) MySQL.

Release it anyway, I'm always interested in different approaches to writing a BBS system.

lol @ SQLite

Write it in Haskell. Point-free.

CGI/C.

That would be interesting

wrapList :: Int -> [a] -> [[a]]
wrapList _ [] = []
wrapList n xs = (take n xs) : wrapList n (drop n xs)

Needs some work, but it functions. I even have it running on my web server, but I'm not adventurous enough to link it.

You'll have to create a 666 file entries.dat with an empty entry list (i.e. [Entry {author = "", text = ""}])

>>>16
Er, oops. There's a trailing +++ at the end of hbbsend

So, where is this hosted?

PROTIP


hbbssubmitted es n t =
    p (toHtml ("Saved!")) +++
    p (toHtml ((address (toHtml "Click here to reload")) ! [src "Main.cgi"]))

vs


hbbssubmitted es n t =
    p << "Saved!" +++ p << address ! [src "Main.cgi"] << "Click here to reload!"

Aw, I didn't notice this thread was from 2007. << probably didn't exist back then.

This thread makes me really wish we had IDs still. Maybe we should take a vote on who wants IDs back, and then have our view blatantly ignored.

Why were IDs removed from /prog/? I wasn't around at the time.

Bampu.

Why?

pantsu.

Because of threads like this one:
http://bubble6.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/dejima/1210196150/

Now imagine that spammed all over the place by some guy with #tea in the name field.

I had been giving credit to ID guy.

I wish we had IDs back ;__;

Oh you are so funny someone posted Wokon there. Ahaha the hilarity. You guys are so great.

Well, I tried to use the tripcode, but it wouldn't work for some reason :/

I have a picture saved somewhere but I can't find it.  It's of shii saying something along the lines of "shiichan was meant more as a social experiment" and I'd love to post it in this thread but i can't find it.

To hijack this post, I want to set up a telnet BBS with Python/Twisted and SQL. Does that sound like a not completely terrible idea?
