Wondering if there is a monospace cursive font.

Some fonts express cursive elements whem italisised though.

Ephera ,

I mean, are we sure the font used in that screenshot isn’t monospace?
If you compare the two lines after the first comment, the columns seem to align quite well (though I cannot read some of that)…

Cwilliams ,

Wait, you can read any of that? Impressive

Ephera ,

Well, it helps a lot that I can guess the words from just knowing roughly what C looks like.

For example, the first line, I’m rather sure, reads:


<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">static</span><span style="color:#323232;"> Chain </span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">*</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#795da3;">create_chain</span><span style="color:#323232;">(</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">char *</span><span style="color:#323232;">name)
</span>

The only word I’m truly sure about, is “Chain”, and I can mostly read “name”.
The “static” and ”char", I would not be able to make out, without knowing that they’re keywords in C.
And the “create” is pretty much unreadable to me, but it would make sense to be “create_chain”, since it returns a Chain object.

Cwilliams ,

Ah, I see. My C skills could use some brushing up

All those are ways of calling string in C? Why are there so many?

In Rust, and I don’t know

Isn’t it a bad thing?

jet ,

Not necessarily a bad thing. If your method of invocation gives context about its possible use cases. You can make the program more safe because you know it’s being used appropriately. If you’re just passing a pointer around anything could happen to it. So it’s hard to help the programmer not make mistakes

would open-source benefit from a security nightmare flash was? genuinely asking

vriska ,

having access to the source code could be a starting point to create an open source version free of its security flaws

Also an open source version of Flash that could act as a legacy emulator for old SWF and FLV games and movies.
