| Robin_Watts | Miles confirms it is in Miami. | 00:07.17 |
| ian_____ | Hello, is anyone here who can answer a question? | 11:24.46 |
| Robin_Watts | ian_____: Don't ask to ask, just ask :) | 11:28.45 |
| ian_____ | Is it possible to make Ghostscript draw things on the screen without displaying each drawing operation, only the result? | 11:33.07 |
| Robin_Watts | ian_____: What platform? | 11:35.12 |
| | I think that if you use the display device you get it as it's drawn (although for various technical reasons there is a delay on windows). | 11:36.05 |
| | If you want to get just the final version displayed, then render to a bitmap, then display the bitmap. | 11:36.31 |
| ian_____ | I'm using linux, so x11 | 11:37.03 |
| Robin_Watts | ian_____: So, print to a bitmap and display the bitmap ? | 11:38.24 |
| ian_____ | ok , I'll try that | 11:38.33 |
| | thank you | 11:38.38 |
| Robin_Watts | np. | 11:38.44 |
| | chris/kens: Booked flights. On virgin (7th -> 9th), 56D out 60D back. | 12:16.54 |
| deleet | are those seats? why would you ever want to sit all the way in the back | 12:27.59 |
| Robin_Watts | deleet: Cos those are the options available if you want to pick seats now. | 13:35.25 |
| ian_____ | Does anyone know what the AlwaysUpdate X device parameter does? | 13:43.55 |
| Robin_Watts | See gs/doc/Use.htm | 13:56.15 |
| | http://ghostscript.com/doc/current/Use.htm | 13:57.01 |
| | Essentially, I think, we draw into a buffer. We can either prod X to tell it the buffer has changed after every update, or less than that (probably only every second or something, except when we finish a page). | 13:58.20 |
| ian_____ | It doesn't seem to make much difference either way. | 14:18.41 |
| | Thanks for your help though. | 14:25.12 |
| | Robin_Watts: Is there really no way to make the display device only show the page when it is finished? | 14:34.08 |
| mvrhel_laptop | hmm Robin_Watts you around? | 15:05.30 |
| Flx_ | Hi | 15:58.23 |
| ghostbot | que tal, flx_ | 15:58.23 |
| Flx_ | I have a local app and i'm using a gs.exe file to use ghostscript on windows. I would like to find a mac OS executable for MAMP... Is it possible ? | 16:00.14 |
| mvrhel_laptop | ray_laptop: you there? | 18:12.15 |
| Robin_Watts | Aha. An mvrhel_laptop | 18:12.29 |
| | How was holiday? | 18:12.34 |
| mvrhel_laptop | Hi Robin_Watts. It was nice. But I feel I have a lot to do today | 18:12.50 |
| Robin_Watts | Did you see the email from the large corporation near you? | 18:12.54 |
| mvrhel_laptop | yes. I was going to talk with you about that | 18:13.17 |
| | I was looking at the other project that someone did | 18:13.28 |
| Robin_Watts | ah, right. I remember the existence of that, but I hadn't looked at it. | 18:13.56 |
| mvrhel_laptop | they actually did what I wanted to do next which was to wrap up some of the mupdf api so that they can be shared amongst different languages e.g. c# | 18:14.19 |
| Robin_Watts | Was that more of a 'wrap MuPDF so it can be called in a windows 8 stylee' thing than a separate app? | 18:14.22 |
| | right. | 18:14.26 |
| mvrhel_laptop | yes exactly | 18:14.27 |
| | no viewer app included | 18:14.31 |
| Robin_Watts | Well, if what they have done is reasonable, then we should get them to sign a CLA and take it on, maybe. | 18:15.04 |
| | We could turn it into a bountiable bug if it seems reasonable to give them some $ for their efforts. | 18:15.24 |
| mvrhel_laptop | Robin_Watts: yes I will look it over more this weekend | 18:15.32 |
| Robin_Watts | And it might be worth mentioning that to David. | 18:15.39 |
| | I was desperately worried he was going to ask me technical Windows 8 things while you were away :) | 18:16.08 |
| mvrhel_laptop | OK. I will reply to David too. | 18:16.12 |
| | I wonder what their interest is and what group he is in | 18:16.45 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2013/04/14)>>> | |
