We already have the ID function, so why do we need such an egregious compromise of anonymity (and security) like voluntarily exposing your own IP?
You may want to consider releasing Kareha & Wakaba under some sort of license at this point, just to make sure that the scripts always stay free for people to use.

admin.pl with a separate HTML page in ./admin (so it can be accessed simply by appending "/admin" to the board URL). It should have every possible admin feature available in kareha.pl, including rebuilding caches, modifying the spamlist, and nuking the board.
> The error page in mode_message should more closely resemble that of 0ch (complete with "ERROR!" title).
Signed. And the style selector on the error page is pretty useless.
Kareha can't use different layouts for posts on different pages, except by CSS trickery. I could add the second colon, though.
Also, I've implemented optional thread closing now, but there's no extra post. That would just be a total mess to implement, and would make re-opening threads annoying, if such a feature was requested. It replaces the posting form with a notice that the thread has been closed, instead.
> Would it maybe make sense to make a separate thread creation page?
Considering that the ratio of users who start new threads to those who don't is pretty small on most message boards, I think it does.
A seperate page could also be used to put a more visible disclaimer/set of rules, as a seperate page with a different layout is likely to generate more attention from the user. Stuff that can be put there also wouldn't clutter up the frontpage.
I don't think this is an urgent matter, though.
> Can't this be somewhere else but the post form?
No, because that would be immensely useless and annoying, because nobody would know it's there, and even if they did, they'd have to go somewhere else every time they wanted to post something using a different markup.
All right, code updated again. This time, some experimenting! I've implemented a tentative system for changing markup types. This needs a bunch of testing, of course, so here's the test thread link once again: http://wakaba.c3.cx/sup/kareha.pl/1099697376/
Thoughts and comments are welcome. I'm still trying to figure out how exactly to do this.
There's a bunch of other changes and fixes too, so mention if anything breaks, as usual. Also, shift-reload!

But my good man, sage means down.
> Also, how is Kahera unrivaled when there are still large sites that are not running it? Shiichan is still on world4ch, Thorn on parts of wakachan for example.
These are temporary problems because the webmasters of both sites are too stubborn to upgrade.
Damn, I was about to plug >>96 when I saw you uploaded the new version. Thanks for listening WAHa, you're awesome. :D
(Does this work like rules.html in mode_image? Is the board title inserted automatically in templates.pl or is it part of that separate html file?)
Already a few nitpicks though: (1) index.html#menu and index.html#1 links should be automatically inserted to the right of the board title (or below if you're looking at it without CSS), and (2) the "Create new thread" title isn't really necessary, since the widget button already explains its function (like with the reply box).
Unrelated: in 2ch thread lists, position numbers are followed by colons, not periods.
> That's what I thought, but then why is it in the Reply pages?
Er, that's a bug I guess.
> 1) rename the RENZOKU constants to something that makes sense
I dunno, they're pretty useless anyway, as has been pointed out, so I don't know if I care enough to change them.
> 2) Have the string to sage and fusianasan defined as a constant in config
I dunno, if different boards use different strings, that will only make for immense confusion.
> 3) A specific string for ID:Heaven instead of anything in the email field
Well, the only string that makes sense is sage, but yes, I should implement the Heaven-on-sage behaviour.
> 4) Cookie preferences such as "Don't use expanding textarea" which leaves it small or big.. or another option for that choice as well; an option to not save Name/Email automatically; anything else that is useful?
Maybe, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort (I'd have to implement a preferences page for it, too).
"When they shouldn't be?" They've always been bolded.
Er, that's a feature, not a bug. That's how most GUIs act.
No, but that's not the point.
> You don't see the link to the WakabaMark page either?
Nope... ?
> There's just a tiny little link there to let people do this. Is this really a such a huge bother to deal with? It's two words.
It's a link, it screams "Click me!". Most people don't need it most of the time, still it'll be there all of the time. How about style:none or something?
And sorry for being annoying. Strong opinions and all, no offense.
>Why should it?
Because it's one of the two requirements for creating a new thread, and it's a lot more important to have a well-defined topic than to fill in your name.
>It's more convenient if you want to start a new thread, but for those who don't it's one more form to have to scroll by.
Good point.
>Any idea why?
I dunno. I guess it's just another one of Futaba's countless layout quirks.

Your browser momentarily regressed to an old bug and then got better? Who can tell?
Running in pure perl would be ideal, portability-wise, but in practice implementing a JPEG loader and saver from scratch in Perl is both a lot more work than anyone wants to do, and the result will also be too slow.
As was already stated, making a statically linked executable lets you distribute pre-compiled binaries that people can just upload along with the script.
Thought of something else: can there be the ability to separately place a title on a board and what the head <title> element says?
Like "Music" for the header but "foolchan - music" for the title in the browser window.
