@kirma Yes, at least since V9. I remember being surprised when I discovered it. (It is the standard iterator form, but I don't think there are any examples in the docs.)

@MichaelE2 There's at least one indirect example in GenericCylindricalDecomposition, but you have to look at the intermediate forms there to see it.

Q: LaTeX does not work in comments?

beckoI think that LaTeX doesn't work on comments. I have made a few tests and I don't see it happening. LaTeX works fine on answers and questions, so I don't think it is a problem with my browser. So, two questions: 1) Is LaTeX disabled on comments? 2) If it is disabled, why? I think it is incosist...

A stupid question, Does J/Link work with Javascript?
 
5:10 PM
@xslittlegrass Javascript is not Java. Ergo, it doesn't.
 
@xslittlegrass J/Link does not handle Javascript directly, but it is possible to evaluate Javascript code through Java (and thus J/Link). For an example, look for the word Javascript in the post (18572).
I've that mechanism successfully with showdownjs to convert markdown to HTML.

Hello. Anyone with version 10 want to try something for me?
tiff=ExportString[{
"Graphics"->Graphics[],
(* Length of \[GreaterEqual] 10000 fails *)
"Comments"->StringJoin@ConstantArray["0",{10000}]
},{"TIFF","Rules"},"ImageEncoding"->"LZW"
];
StringLength@ImportString[tiff,{"TIFF","Comments"}]
does it work in version 10 or does it still fail?
 
Any ideas on how I can modify the lastLine[file_] := ReadList[file, String] // Last to read the 2nd last line and any line of my choice?
@OleksandrR. Long time..how is everything going?
 
@brama yes, it's been a while since I came into the chat. Everything is fine, thanks. How are you?
 
@OleksandrR. doing well...hopefully get done end of next month!!! :)
 
@brama glad to hear it! Good luck!
 
@OleksandrR. Thanks

@OleksandrR. works for me in 10.1 up to 50,000
(Win8)
Actually
strange
it broke for 1,000,000
now it works again
up to 10,000,000 at least
 
@blochwave thank you. I had looked at this before because I was wondering if one can embed code into a TIFF that was used for generating that image. But in fact there is not enough space in 10,000 characters to do it. It seems the TIFF import/export was changed in version 10.

@OleksandrR. what is the best way to share sample data files that go with a question on the form?
 
10:27 PM
@brama what form? Sorry, I don't understand
I always used ge.tt for sharing simple things. Szabolcs's suggestion originally. Otherwise you could set up a github account but it is not meant for storing large binaries
 
@OleksandrR. I meant forum...I will lookinto ge.tt..thanks!!

@brama And we have our SE-Tools palette for Mathematica that can (now) upload cells and notebooks up to 1MB.
 
11:45 PM
@JacobAkkerboom, are you still working on a package manager? My interest in helping out with such a project is currently trending upward, and I'd love to chat about that.
(Or I'd love to talk to anyone else working on a Mathematica package manager, for that matter.)
