I just got accepted into beta for it, and it’s insanely great! There are some disconnect issues, but the latency is awesome, etc. If only syntax hightlighting was better.
And yes, i’m killing their servers by contributing to their viral growth :P
as a sidenote, i’m actually hyperlinking my links! (freaky, I know), and my posts are getting less and less mature over the months/years
So the issue with Adobe AIR, is that there’s no SVG support, but I have a hunch that this might support SVG, as it’s not Adobe’s fork of Webkit, but hopefully the real one :)
It has tons of awesome components like WebKit, Chromium (hope it doesn’t have that rotate bug…), Gears, GTK+, jQuery, Appcelerator SDK, NSIS, Ruby.
But this will hopefully satisfy those wishes for a Desktop version.
updating! it looks insanely great.
I’m posting this from the entire awesomeness which is Wordpress 2.7!
Okay, so 0 = false, so it makes sense that !0 = true. but also 1 = true, so that saved 1 byte.
Since there’s no .readyState attribute > 4, instead of .readyState == 4, you can do .readyState>3
the big one was ActiveX, which was originally
x=new(this.ActiveXObject?ActiveXObject:XMLHttpRequest)('Microsoft.XMLHTTP')
I noticed how this.activeXObject was repeated unnecessarily. So i added a new variable y
y=this.ActiveXObject
then I did:
y=this.ActiveXObject;x=new(y?y:XMLHttpRequest)('Microsoft.XMLHTTP')
thanks to dynamic languages, I could use x, and just reset it to something else (saving a variable declaration!)
x=this.ActiveXObject;x=new(x?x:XMLHttpRequest)('Microsoft.XMLHTTP')
Now I just need to find a way to shrink
x.setRequestHeader('Content-type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded')
