sbbs.el
sbbs
is a SchemeBBS client in Emacs. It implements
browsing the thread list, threads and creating responses.
Any bugs, patches or questions can be submitted to my public inbox.
Usage
Make sure sbbs.el
is your load path (if necessary adjust the
load-path
variable), and then run M-x sbbs
. This will prompt you
what board to load, and then open a buffer while asynchronously
fetching the thread list.
To start a new thread, press c
(sbbs-view-compose
), or open a
thread by pressing enter. When in a thread, respond by pressing r
(sbbs-read-reply
). Create a thread or response by pressing C-c C-c
(sbbs-compose-create
).
Issues and Improvments
- Due to issues with
url.el
, some versions of Emacs take quite long to load threads/thread lists. - No highlighting in response buffers.
- Spoilers aren't shown unless manually highlighted.
- Remember already opened threads and highlight updates.
- Add auto-quoting support when responding (e.g. with a
C-u C-u
prefix) - Add quote-region support when responding
- Fix encoding issues
- Improve inter-thread navigation (eg. using
M-n
/M-p
to go to next (opened) thread) - Add filter support
- Add support for VIP replies
- Add "open in browser" command
- Add support for ranged and list references
- Be more intelligent when reloading a thread
