Let me start this out by saying that I know nothing about programming.
I am a Futaba (www.2chan.net) user, and over there we have a wonderful set of Firefox extensions known as Akafuku and Aima Aima ni (http://www.unmht.org/futaba/). These do far more than the 4chan Firefox Extension, and include such features as one-click image saving, thread archiving, pop-up windows that display the target of >>(postnumber), or even >(quote) on mouseover, extensive spam filters, etc. etc.
Having a program like this for 4chan would be fucking awesome. I know 4chan is based off of Futaba, but how hard would it be to reverse engineer this to work with 4chan?
Translate the pages & the technical details (if any) and then we'll see.
If the source is available it should be a days work.

Oh wow. I didn't know about that. Since Futaba's software is a failure (what the crap, no linking back to quoted posts?), I assumed Elevens just enjoyed their Web 0.5.
4chan is an extensively modified version of a piece of software called Futallaby which itself is a modified version of Futaba.
I doubt this should have much impact on the porting of the Futaba extensions as the basic underlying framework resides within all three incarnations of the software.
Another thing to consider is whether the m♥♥t would allow use of such a tool.
The current extension is pretty much endorsed by 4chan administration, so it is not unreasonable to think that they retain a certain amount of control over its development and functionality (I doubt they would dedicate an entire section of the site to it).
Nonetheless, the awesomeness of the Futaba extension intrigues me, so I'll keep my eye on this thread.
Oh, and OP: Welcome to /prog/, where your other car is a cdr. I would lurk and just stick to this thread for a bit if I were you.

what.
if mootle doesn't like it, what's he going to do? ban all firefox users? yeah you might not necessarily get the exposure of having it on one of 4chan's main pages, but that doesn't mean it can't exist.

Well, I've got news for you: you're a retard.
Congratulations.

Because they're morons. Even Trevor has managed to include all its functionality in regular Javascript so it's available in all modern browsers. Check out 7chan.

Looking inside Akahuku it's all JavaScript in English so knock yourself out.

OP here, bumping this thread because I want Akafuku for 4chan.

This has already been implemented as a hidden easter egg feature. The function call occurs based upon a specific date and random number.
Thread archiving, batch saving and searching has already been covered well enough by chanmongler. It works perfectly with all browsers (that is ie, opera and failurefox). There is simply no reason to write another tool to do the exact same stuff.

``You forget most of /prog/ doesn't use Windows.'' is correct, >>28 just felt like spicing things up, a don't -> doesn't change leaves less of an impact.

Sorry, I like my OS to be functional and relatively reliable, though compiling things from source can be a bitch. It also feels like it ``just works'', unlike Linux distros. I've yet to try a BSD flavour, though. Me being gay doesn't have anything to do with my choice of OS.
Let me start this out by saying that I know nothing about programming.
I am a SICP (http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html) user, and over there we have a wonderful set of procedures known as EVAL and APPLY. These do far more than the numeric procedures, and include such features as metacircular interpretation, proper tail recursion, debugging messages that display the call trace of >>(procedurename), or even >(macro) on debugging mode, extensive bayesian spam filters, etc. etc.
Having a program like this for bbcode would be fucking awesome. I know bbcode is based off of LISP, but how hard would it be to reverse engineer this to work with bbcode?
Thread archiving, batch saving and searching has already been covered well enough by DownThemAll and Ctrl-F. There is simply no reason to write another tool that does the same stuff.

Hopefully in b4 hax my anus, *grabs dick*, Ginger, Sussman, Culver, Xarn, Taro, Oyashiro-sama, NULL NULL NULL, and dead dogs.
And that's why one should never bother to discuss anything intelligent on 4chan. Ever.

PROTIP: Disabling SSID broadcast doesn't buy you anything. It just disables the advertising frames. Other frames are still transmitted with your SSID in it, and they are trivial to pick up using something like AirSnort or NetStumbler (what is it with wifi security tools and CamelCase?).
How can I have a Firefox ``script-let'' automatically fill out a file select element?
Doing it normally throws an exception, is there some extra code you can add to get permission from the user (I think I used something like that for XMLHttpRequest once)?
Example of what I want:
Click button -> Comment field is filled with "Japanese bird cooking spaghetti," file select field is filled with "penne rigate.jpg."
Set signed.applets.codebase_principal_support to true. javascript:(function(){netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege('UniversalFileRead');document.getElementsByName('com')[0].value="Japanese%20bird%20cooking%20spaghetti";document.getElementsByName('upfile')[0].value="/dev/null/Japanese%20bird%20cooking%20spaghetti.jpg";})();
And the result: Error: Duplicate file entry detected.
Maybe I'll give in and make an extension instead...

That's only because Japanese bird cooking spaghetti.jpg is already on the server.

That's because the image that happened to be called Japanese bird cooking spaghetti.jpg is already on the server. (Changing the name will not fix the problem.)

Get the fuck out of /prog/ and go back to /b/. Thanks.
Forth is a structured, imperative, stack-based, computer programming language and programming environment. Forth is sometimes spelled in all capital letters following the customary usage during its earlier years, although the name is not an acronym.
A procedural, stack-oriented and reflective programming language without type checking, Forth features both interactive execution of commands (making it suitable as a shell for systems that lack a more formal operating system) and the ability to compile sequences of commands for later execution. Some Forth implementations (usually early versions or those written to be extremely portable) compile threaded code, but many implementations today generate optimized machine code like other language compilers.
Although not as popular as other programming systems, Forth has enough support to keep several language vendors and contractors in business. Forth is currently used in boot loaders such as Open Firmware, space applications,[1] and other embedded systems. An implementation of Forth by the GNU Project is actively maintained, the last release in November 2008. The 1994 standard is currently undergoing revision, provisionally titled Forth 200x.
