Talk:Beatnik

From Esolang

What year was this language created? --Aardwolf 22:01, 29 Sep 2005 (GMT)

I don't know. I implemented it in 2002. Check the mailing list archives. --Graue 02:33, 30 Sep 2005 (GMT)

I am unable to find any archives of the list from before April 2001. However, from Cliff's HQ9+ page it is clear that late 2000 is the earliest possibility. He also says that HQ9+ was his first esolang, so I'll take the liberty to categorize Beatnik as 2001 (same as HQ9+). --Rune 00:08, 7 Feb 2006 (GMT)

Shouldn't there be a list of Scrabble letter values or at least a link where you can find it? --BodyTag 07:31, 30 Sep 2005 (GMT)

Done. --IanO 15:50, 30 Sep 2005 (GMT)

It'd be amusing if the letter values were locale-sensitive :-) --GreyKnight 22:40, 1 Sep 2006 (UTC)

Has anyone else had any problems with the JavaScript interpreter? It won't run on FF 3.0 or IE7... just shows a blank page. For whatever reason, the markup is getting eaten. I got it to work once I saved it locally and put the script between the <script>tags rather than as an include... --Doc honcho 02:40, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
