making 'Map Scale Legend' by Alejandro Grijalba work in GIMP 2.10

Posted 06-23-2019 at 11:50 PM by Yury_T

Just edit mapscale.scm in any text editor and change three occurences of NORMAL to NORMAL-MODE

(on linux, the mapscale.scm resides in $HOME/.config/GIMP/2.10/scripts)

The trivial diff for that:

Code:

For reasons I don't fully comprehend, every now and then, one or more of these tools won't work, but hopefully at least one will. In order to preserve openbox' rc.xml key bindings, I came up with this script that "unifies" simple commands to lower or increase the volume:

Code:

 #!/bin/bash
rexima vol ${1} && exit 0
pactl set-sink-volume 0 ${1}% && exit 0 
pactl set-sink-volume 1 ${1}% && exit 0
val=${1#+} ; val=${val#-}

Building expressions lists - 2

Posted 06-19-2019 at 02:46 PM by dogpatch

Of these groups of effectively equivalent expressions, my program then eliminated all but the preferred (briefest and 'best-looking') expression. This produced a list of 1315 algebracic expressions, to which I began to refer as my master...
