Seriously? SRL now stands for 'SRL resource library'??
Pretty sure that makes no sense at all.
If we expand…
SRL resource library & SRL = 'SRL Resource Library'
SRL Resource Library resource library resource library resource library resource library resource library resource library resource library resource library…
My mind often freezes when it tries to interpret that - I thought infinite loops were frowned upon here.
Anyway, just saying - it makes us look slightly stupid.

Look up GNU sometime, which was the? first. Geeks like their recursive definitions.

How about… Scar/Simba resource library?

Fair enough.
Just felt like posting in this section :)

GNU, PHP, etc. are all recursive acronyms. I'd say those are still legitimate things, regardless of their recursive acronyms.. (well, PHP is lame, but whatever. :p)
Removed XNU; thought it was XNU's Not Unix, but it's X is Not Unix.
Also, Wine Is Not an Emulator (Wine), RPM Package Manager (RPM), blah blah blah.

In that case, i luffs yeww, let's call it "Bob". Simba resource library. :)

I have no idea where you got that from at all, since it has nothing to do with my post in any sense.

It would've been funny if it made sense :).

It means Scar resource library, but call it simba resource library if you like or w/e you wish to call it.

SRL has been SRL Resource Library since Simba came out publicly.

The SRL Development Team is proud to present the SRL Resource Library, a Pascal Library chiefly consisting of color routines. SRL covers a wide variety of applications such as advanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and Graphical Object Recognition. Although much of SRL's functionality is generic in nature, the vast majority are specialized functions dedicated to the playing of the MMORPG Runescape.

You just said its not suitable for RS anymore. If you believe that to be, then you just answered your question ;). This is a RuneScape cheating community..I don't see how SCAR isn't suitable though.

its not suitable because it don't support smart anymore and also not srl 5. however simba is 90% like scar in syntax so i see no point in renaming it afterall.

No point in keeping SCAR in the name if it doesn't work anymore with SCAR?

No, no, no. Wizzup came out publicly, but Simba was released to the public. Careful word choice is required when dealing with these sensitive matters.

Clearly, by association, recursive acronyms are ballin' and hence I don't know what you're on about.

SRL 4 is fully SCAR and simba cross compatible.
Anyways the history of "SRL" is as follows
SCAR Runescape Library
SCAR Resource Library
"SRL" Resource Library
It's really pointless argument, but it does sound borderline retarded when someone asks what SRL stands for (real life) and I tell them SRL Resource Library.

Wasn't it when they changed hosts? Or soon after, anyway.
I prefer the idea of recursion in the name, it's worked for PHP, WINE and many other things, and I swear people have never had an issue before :p
