This commit implements a feature commonly found in IRC clients, wherein the user can press the up key to recall previously sent messages (and can press the down key to cycle back the other direction in the history). This commit is similar to pull request #11, except that this implementation works properly.
Pokemon Showdown Client
This is a repository for some of the client code for Pokemon Showdown.
This is what runs play.pokemonshowdown.com.
WARNING: You probably want the Pokemon Showdown server.
Testing
You can make and test client changes simply by opening testclient.html.
It will ask for config data. Config data for the main server can be copied from:
http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/~~showdown/action.php?act=upkeep
This will allow you to test changes to the client without setting up your own login server.
Certain things will fail:
Registering, changing name, the ladder tab, and the /ladder command
Everything else can be tested, though.
Setup
This repository is not "batteries included". It does NOT include everything necessary to run a full Pokemon Showdown client.
In particular, it doesn't include a login/authentication server, nor does it
include the database abstraction library used by the ladder library (although
it's similar enough to mysqli that you can use that with minimal changes).
It also doesn't include several resource files (namely, the /audio/ and
/sprites/ directories) for size reasons.
In other words, this repository is incomplete and NOT intended for people who wish to serve their own Pokemon Showdown client (you can, but it'll require you to rewrite some things). Rather, it's intended for people who wish to contribute and submit pull requests to Pokemon Showdown's client.
License
Pokemon Showdown's client is distributed under the terms of the AGPLv3.
WARNING: This is NOT the same license as Pokemon Showdown's server.
