            1 # Meme cache pointer support by Bitreich
            2 
            3 The Bitreich memecache joins modern programming languages like C in
            4 supporting pointer notation.  Get a pointer representation of a meme by
            5 referencing it in our IRC channels with the syntax '*<tag>', instead of
            6 the usual '#<tag>'.
            7 
            8         Example:
            9         <adc> #gnu-hut
           10         <annna> #gnu-hut: gophers://bitreich.org/I/memecache/gnu-hut.jpg
           11         <adc> *gnu-hut
           12         <annna> *gnu-hut: gophers://bitreich.org/9/memecache/filter/*gnu-hut.jpg
           13 
           14 The pointer notation works for image and video memes.  Remember that
           15 you can explore our memes with

           27 ## Deep pointer support in memes.
           28 
           29 Thanks the ground work of adc, we had pointer support for memes. Based on
           30 this, we now have deep pointer support for all kind of memes:

           34 
           35 With cache support.
           36 Have fun pointing at memes! We had much fun making this. :D
           37 
           38 ## Reverse pointer support for memes.
           39 
           40 After a public request by an avid pointer lover, we of course implemented
           41 reverse pointer support for memes now:
           42 
           43         gophers://bitreich.org/9/memecache/filter/&&&&&&athas-teapot.jpg
           44 
           45 See how you can dereference this teapot now.
           46 
           47 Have fun!
           48 
           49 Sincerely yours,
