JavaScript Shell 1.4

Sunday, October 30th, 2005

Changes since JavaScript Shell 1.3.1:

  • Up/down now navigate history as long as the caret is within the first/last line of the input. (Previously, the caret had to be at the beginning of the first line or the end of the last line.)
  • Navigating to the previous history entry now puts the caret at the end of the textarea.
  • Added tooltips for the links with accesskeys at the top of the page. (Fixed by Jesper Rønn-Jensen.)
  • Added overflow: auto; to the input field to prevent scrollbars from appearing in IE unnecessarily.
  • Alphabetize properties in props() output.
  • Added a hidden option for props() to print one property per line (pass true as the second parameter to props()).
  • props() now complains if you pass undefined or null.
  • Tab completion no longer causes an error in IE. (Fixed by Jesper Rønn-Jensen.)

Updated shell, updated bookmarklet, diff

Top 14 reasons to invade Switzerland

Saturday, October 1st, 2005

Keepers of Lists rejected this list I wrote, so I'm posting it here (without yay/nay voting, unfortunately).

  1. They're not with us, so they must be against us.
  2. Once we control Geneva, we can modify the Geneva Convention.
  3. When was the last time Switzerland won a war?
  4. To see how long they remain neutral.
  5. They refuse to refund us for the holes in their cheese.
  6. Zurich and Geneva recognize gay marriage.
  7. Four percent of Switzerland is muslim.
  8. To freeze (and take) ill-gotten funds in Swiss bank accounts.
  9. Their army keeps supplying small knives to terrorists.
  10. To send a message to all the other "neutral" countries.
  11. They would never expect it.
  12. Easiest way to go to war with the entire rest of the world.
  13. Retaliation for tricking us into signing the Geneva Convention after WWI.
  14. To sieze control of lucrative domain names such as getri.ch and coo.ch.
