My terminal of choice on Mac, Warp, just got a Linux release! I don't use any of the warp ai/drive features but I do like the Launch Configurations feature and it's general workflow. Now we just need to convince them to flatpak it. 😜 #linux#flatpak#terminal#macOS
Best advice for remembering how to use "tar"? Think in Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice – "extract ze files" for extraction ("-ezf"), "compress ze files" for compression ("-czf"). For extraction in current directory, think "extract ze vucking files" ("-xzvf"). ;)
Here's @rzolau metering to get a beautiful photo of some 1970s #terminal gear in my #University office. We're working on a super fun project to capture some of my #retrocomputing and #VintageRadio hardware. Here he's using period-correct #MediumFormat#film equipment to set up the (unstaged, ambient light) shot while a #Teletype Model 28 KSR photobombs the #Hasselblad camera.
After #GUI, I've now pushed implementation of a #TUI output in #Libervia#CLI frontend, which shows A/V call video streams directly into your terminal! It's using #Kitty or #iTerm2 image protocols, or #Unicode half-blocks (thanks to #termimage)
I'm not aware of any other CLI tools doing something similar (#XMPP or not). It's not as useful as GUI, but it's quite fun :)
A TextArea widget for #Textual has been on a lot of people's wishlist for so long, and @darrenburns did a hell of a job on it; and he keeps doing great work on it adding more and more things that people are requesting. v0.51.0 has some great TextArea extras.
I do feel that TextArea is the real highlight of the framework at the moment. I'm seeing folk use it for neat things too.
Prompt is my new favorite Linux terminal. The container support is just awesome. I really hope it'll replace Gnome Terminal in future Fedora releases. #Gnome#Prompt#terminal#Linux#idontusearchbtw
I've been using the APT utility for so long, but I recently tried Flatpak for the first time. My first impression was that the interface looks cool and cleaner. The check marks for pending files makes the rapid scrolling redundant.
Wer von euch NICHT ITler:Innen oder Webdesigner:Innen schreibt und notiert Texte in Markdown Format? (egal für oder/und auf was)
Ich nutze es so gut wie immer, auch für Notitzen. Doch einige beschweren sich, dass dies zu umständlich und schwer sei. Ich sei ITler deswegen sei es nichts für sie ect. Deren ausreden verstehe ich nicht aber kann mir wer diese erklären? (nope Weblinks wird nicht von denen angenommen)
🧵 …so wie es aussieht lassen sich #MSword Dokumente zu #Markdown umwandeln aber dies wieder über das #Terminal. Dies ist für mich kein Problem und lässt sich leicht als #Script verarbeiten. Dies kann mensch aber nicht von #Aitor:Innen fordern. Werde dies wohl automatisiert per Script anbieten müssen und dies in #CommonMark oder Alternative mit mehr #Dokument-Formate?
I've just pushed the implementation of a GUI for calls in the CLI frontend of #Libervia
That means that you have a full-featured #Qt GUI accessible quickly from your #terminal to make or receive your #XMPP calls. Can also be useful to compensate for clients missing A/V calls.
Just updated Tinboard https://github.com/davep/tinboard so that it’s based on #Textual v0.48.2; one of the nice things is that I could drop my TextArea wrapper that tweaked some things, and now I get free soft-wrapping with the TextArea widget, so it fits into a dialog layout so much better!
