  1. Het script is nog niet helemaal wat ik wil, maar de eerste resultaten met oudere PEF-bestanden lijken al heel wat.

    Het script is trouwens gemaakt met:
    #bash
    #awk
    #rawtherapee
    #enfuse
    #imagemagick
    en
    #zenity

  2. OpenAI’s #Browser Could Be #Hijacked to #Spam Your #WhatsApp Contacts

    Researchers at #security firm #Zenity found more than a dozen flaws in #AI browsers—and managed to get OpenAI’s Atlas to make an unauthorized Amazon purchase.

  3. #Zenity is a bit of a winner for knocking together simple UIs. For ages I've been using a wrapper script around #ytdlp which determines the screen resolution of the computer it's running on, updates yt-dlp, then fetches the video supplied as an argument and streams it to #mpv.

    However that's not very friendly for folks who share the media device on which the script is available, so I wrapped it in Zenity to present a friendly UI for either playing a previously-watched video, playing a new video (by URL), presenting a list of previously-watched videos, and providing a means to delete one or all previously-watched videos.

  4. Do you have any experience with `ncruces/zenity`, the Go implementation of Gnome Zenity? I'd like to experiment with a passive activity tracker for work, and Zenity seems to be a good fit.

    I'll probably just build a prototype later on.

  5. #Truc : #Zim permet de définir des outils personnalisés pour lancer depuis un menu à peu près tout ce qu'on veut.

    S'il s'agit de lancer un script donc l'exécution dure plusieurs secondes, on peut utiliser #zenity pour ajouter une petite notification graphique d'attente :

    (ma_tache) | zenity \
    --progress \
    --auto-close \
    --no-cancel \
    --title="Mon titre" \
    --text="Le nom de ma tache" \
    --pulsate

    #bash #code

  6. Warnung bei voller Platte

    Mit einem Shell-Skript könnt ihr die Belegung von Massenspeichern überwachen und euch warnen lassen, bevor diese zu voll werden.

  7. Tip #Gnome #Zenity :

    La documentation sur les internets ne semble pas à jour (et ne l'a peut-être jamais été).

    Pour avoir la liste des fonctionnalités de Zenity, mieux vaut passer par l'aide en ligne de commande.

    Exemple pour savoir ce qu'on peut mettre dans un formulaire :

    zenity --help-forms

    Zenity est un petit outil qui permet de faire des écrans très simples pour ses scripts #bash

    help.gnome.org/users/zenity/st

    #code #linux

  8. boot error pop-up using that warns of boot errors, unless the error has already been classified by you as harmless the last time it appeared in the pop-up,
    see codeberg.org/adingbatponder/re
    The errors are manually checked with eg Claude before classifying them as irrelevant with a radio button & hiding them henceforth from appearing. If no boot errors, no pop-up. This was iteratively assisted by . Spot bugs early when .

  9. I think I've pretty well done everything I want to do it, for now at least. Goal accomplished; a mostly point and click option for desktop #Linux to get information about my server's UPS.

    I may see about turning this into a simple .deb package later so you can get a shortcut in your apps menu, but the script itself is, I think, basically finished. I accomplished what I set out to do.

    SIGWOCHENENDE received.

    Das HTML-Issue mit #Zenity - also, der Niemand zu sein, der das kurzerhand rausgeschmissene Feature nutzt - hat mich über Gebühr runtergezogen. Ich habe dann als Arbeitsthese die HTML-Generierung mit Pandoc aus Markdown auf Zielformat TXT umgestellt, das war ganz ulkig und macht's einstweilen etwas okayer. 🙏

    "if we get bug reports we can consider other options" is such an incredibly flawed train of thought by someone who obviously uses Debian Testing as a rolling release. The bulk of reports will roll in after stable release when the introduction of other options will have to wait for literal *years*. #Debian #Trixie #Zenity

    Compile-time option disabled by Debian packager: "Most likely nobody will notice."

    From the actively aggressive error msg dept.:

    $ zenity --title foo --text-info --html --width=600 --height=400 --checkbox=foo --filename=foo
    This option is not available. Please see --help for all possible usages.

    (It's about --html, which is a pity for my use case.)
