RE: [btech-discussion] Note about modifying hudinfo

[Cord A. <ki...@bs...>]

You know... there's a pretty damn easy fix to all of this. Just prepend
easy command with a simple version number. When stuff is changed to the
format, the version number is bumped. Then clients need to be changed
one additional time... that time being _right now_ so it knows about the
version numbers. Future changes are up to the developer of the client
because he/she/it only has to implement each version changes...

It's the rigors of communication through plain text strings that are
parsed.

Hi T,

Normally, you would be right. However, the only current client that uses
hudinfo is your thud. Yes, I'm working on hudinfo for my client, and
yes, I'll have to modify hudinfo t parsing, but my clients hudinof
implementation is far from complete (and currently unreleased) anyway.

Is there there any other client that I dont know of ?
