@movq@www.uninformativ.de
Fair enough, I will modify my cron job to match. When I come across edited twts, I just delete both knowing jenny will fetch the right one next iteration. I like keeping things tidy. 😊

@movq@www.uninformativ.de what is your cron job repeat time for jenny? Currently I have mine to every minute, and while it allows me to participate fairly quick on conversations it has some drawbacks: it captures every single edited twt, so I end up with seemingly the same twt, but not quite—as it has minor edits, etc. So, “repeats”. Perhaps setting cron to check every 5 minutes or so is best?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Unless you are stripping stuff on your twts, there is no much to implement. Things will be bold , italics , underlined , and so on, on a client that can render them. Since jenny uses Mutt, I can use my own regex in it to color them as I like. That’s pretty much it.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Goryon parsing is broken. Yarn shows it as I see it on jenny. Exactly the same.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de To clarify, Markdown is just text. 😊 I can do bolding, link things, and if single return multilines ever comes to jenny, I would be able to do bulleted and numbered lists.

The only things—that I know of—that doesn’t work is “> “, but I can use “>”, like so:

D’oh!

So, jenny allows me to write Markdown almost just fine!

Boy, do I love jenny/latest, and Neomutt! 😊

Only thing jenny is missing, to be completely happy, @movq@www.uninformativ.de already knows about. 🙈

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This is my env, on language:

LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

I had to explicitly set it on the cron job to make jenny work.

@quark@ferengi.one If so, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, not quite https://www.uninformativ.de/git/jenny/commit/4a02eeec58317107c07e759733312d168e319f17.html#h0-0-5... Markdown needs single new lines for many things. Bulleted, numbered, code, etc. need them.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I am getting this when I run it on cron (extra lines in between becuase otherwise jenny will make them a mash):

@quark@ferengi.one By the way, you reply did not showed as a reply to a conversation on jenny this time. I wonder is something broke with the latest changes.

How would jenny handle multiline twts? Let’s find out! - One - Two - Three And: 1. One 2. Two 3. Three

@quark@twtxt.netbros.com I have removed the cron job, and added jenny -f to the small script that starts mutt with the .muttrc-jenny file. That way when I open, it refresh the feed before. Let’s see how it goes.

Seeing repeated twts again. Only thing I am doing different is running jenny every 5 minutes on a cron job. I really don’t know what to think.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I got it! I had jenny under my ~/.local/bin/, and didn’t realised the one on the repo changed. D’oh! I am symlinking it now, so this doesn’t happen again. I love autocomplete!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I did a git pull but that isn’t pulling jenny-posting.eml. Am I missing something?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I noticed that if I ran jenny -f on a cron job, and kept mutt open, messages will get duplicated (same message, time, different message-id). I run it now on a small script before opening mutt.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ah, I see. I mean, it is not biggie, as normally I just reply to people, so that part works beautifully. A vi/vim script would work, but it is not universal. What if I use joe, or Emacs, or nano? Meh, jenny is awesome as is, thank you for it! ☺️

I need someone with a nice, and clean twtxt.txt feed. One that doesn’t include much–if any–images, and in which twts have more content. Just looking to see how formatting is handled in jenny and how to tweak it to my liking.

I might have figure out what was causing duplicated entries here. I think running jenny -f while mutt is open was causing it. I have disabled the cron job, and it doesn’t seem to be happening anymore. Let’s see how accurate my theory is. 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de is there a better way to mention others while using jenny?

❓ How do I mention someone while using jenny? I wonder if I have to use the whole @nick@nick… 🤔

@movq trying your jenny/latest. I am loving it so far!

Another one from jenny (why don’t you love me Jenny?!)

This is a new twtxt from jenny.

This is a test from jenny.
