| vtorri | hey | 07:59.44 |
| | in fz_search_text_page, why is ctx passed ? it is not used | 08:00.08 |
| sebras_ | vtorri: ctx is passed in many functions that do not use it, e.g. fz_highlight_selection(). the reason is that ctx is needed when throwing errors or allocating, so we chose to almost always pass this argument to make it easier to change the code in the futurue. e.g. adding warnings, errors or allocations without having to change all functions through the codepath. | 08:44.41 |
| vtorri | ok | 08:45.01 |
| | thanks | 08:45.03 |
| sebras_ | vtorri: sure, np. | 08:58.36 |
| aaa | hey, all I'm seachring for an pdf viewer which can be used to fill in forms in pdf files (since evince does have problems), so can someone tell me if I can use MuPDF to fill in forms in PDF files? | 09:43.54 |
| Robin_Watts | aaa: The core libraries support it. | 09:50.13 |
| | and the UI on Android allows it to happen. | 09:50.25 |
| | So does windows. | 09:50.30 |
| | The linux UI isn't quite there yet though. | 09:50.39 |
| aaa | possible in Android,Windozw but not on linux? should be the other way round ;) | 09:51.50 |
| | so on lin there is not way to fill in forms or can I work "linux UI isn't there" somehow around? | 09:53.34 |
| Robin_Watts | aaa: You could finish writing the linux UI for us :) | 09:57.42 |
| aaa | mkey | 09:58.35 |
| | just kidding | 09:58.39 |
| | what do u use | 09:58.44 |
| | gtk? | 09:58.54 |
| Robin_Watts | aaa: At the moment, we use raw X. | 09:59.09 |
| | no toolkits etc. | 09:59.15 |
| aaa | oooh | 09:59.21 |
| | that's out of my scope | 09:59.28 |
| Robin_Watts | We plan a GTK based one, but that's a way away yet. | 09:59.33 |
| aaa | never done raw X | 09:59.37 |
| | btw IF X is replaced with wayland will this still work or would one have to rewrite the stuff | 10:00.42 |
| Robin_Watts | aaa: There are facilities to run X on Wayland. | 10:01.09 |
| aaa | ahh ok | 10:01.18 |
| | I alway thought wayland should be THE replacement for X | 10:02.09 |
| | so you have to choose between X and wayland | 10:03.20 |
| | and can't have both | 10:03.35 |
| | ohh looks like one can use Okular for that (but have to install all the KDE stuff) and if this does not help I think I have to give Acrobat Reader a try | 10:07.10 |
| | this sounds very constructing "I have tried all the pdf apps in the Ubuntu repositories. All have been buggy and difficult to use." :) | 10:08.17 |
| chrisl | aaa: well, considering Acrobat is buggy and difficult to use...... | 10:10.10 |
| aaa | well if Okular won't work I think there is no other way ;) | 10:13.46 |
| kens | Run MuPDF for windows under Wine ? | 10:14.21 |
| aaa | nope no wine, I don't drink alcohol | 10:15.41 |
| | well this sound like fun http://www.myown1.com/linux/pdf_formfill.shtml | 10:16.12 |
| | no wine no win, just linux and me (and the pdf file) | 10:16.58 |
| Robin_Watts | aaa: Well, I believe we do handle form filling under linux - it's just you have to type at the console prompt - it's not nice. | 10:29.41 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: I'm not sure we support entering non-ASCII characters either. | 10:30.08 |
| | probably not. | 10:30.12 |
| aaa | Robin_Watts: it's the linux way ;) | 10:31.37 |
| | the REAL linux way | 10:31.50 |
| sebras | aaa: yet mupdf doesn't render to libaa... ;) | 10:32.20 |
| aaa | well I guess I will try Okular then Acrobat then (maybe) the stuff of the one guy I found and if this wount work I'll drink some wine and try MuPDF (or if I'll get too drunk I'll boot up win) | 10:34.32 |
| | mkey guys thanks for the help, keep it up | 10:55.53 |
| kens | chrisl ping | 12:52.57 |
| | chrisl you back yet ? | 13:24.17 |
| chrisl | kens: yes, here now | 13:25.43 |
| kens | I can't build on Linus with the lastest source, can you tell me what I'm doing wrong ? I got an error in libtiff, so I went back to /ghostpdl did a make distclean and ./configure, that now fails with a configure error | 13:26.32 |
| chrisl | you need to run autogen.sh | 13:26.53 |
| kens | Tried tghat too, also didn't work, let me retry | 13:27.06 |
| | Hmm,in gs or in ghostpdl ? | 13:27.23 |
| chrisl | Best thing is to (assuming you have no non-tracked files in the directory tree) do: git clean -x -f -d in the ghostpdl directory | 13:27.46 |
| kens | Its a fresh update, I'll try that | 13:28.03 |
| | OK autogen worked this time | 13:28.29 |
| | DO I need to run autogen in gs ? | 13:28.48 |
| chrisl | Yes | 13:28.54 |
| kens | Thgouth so, I'll do that after ghostpsl finishes make | 13:29.09 |
| chrisl | *Finally* managed to check-in...... | 13:34.27 |
| kens | Really ?I had no trouble earlier | 13:34.37 |
| chrisl | It kept freezing at the "this page refreshes automatically....." | 13:35.09 |
| kens | :-( | 13:35.18 |
| chrisl | It was there for ~15 minutes before I killed an hour or so ago - this time, virtually no delay | 13:36.20 |
| kens | Today my laptop is refusing to see any other computers on the network, but I've got a plan, I'm going to copy stuff on USB. That'll foil it. | 13:36.39 |
| chrisl | I've taken the risk up updating mine to Ubuntu 13.04 yesterday - I may regret it over the weekend if things start going wrong..... | 13:37.39 |
| kens | I started the update process yesterday. I'm glad I did, it was happy to copy 10Gb of test files over the network then. Today I guess its sulking. | 13:38.20 |
| | OK I now have a gs build, thanks chrisl | 13:40.10 |
| chrisl | kens: np - I did send an e-mail with these details when I made the tiff changes..... | 13:40.35 |
| kens | I know, but it worked then, I don't know why it didn't today :-( | 13:41.12 |
| chrisl | Weird | 13:41.38 |
| kens | My Linux source wasn't *that* far out of date, but I'm trying to check the bug report Marcos raised about missing drop shadows, and it won't exhibit on WIndows.... | 13:42.27 |
| | Hmm, *lots* of drop shadows go missing when I run it on Linux, and so does a transparent fill of some kind. | 13:44.29 |
| | weird that its OK on Windows | 13:44.35 |
| chrisl | Word length? | 13:45.05 |
| kens | COuld be, I tested the 32-bt windows version, I guess I'd better go build a 64-bit one. | 13:45.24 |
| | It does look like all (maybe only most) of the transparency is missing | 13:45.52 |
| | Intriguingly its *exactly* the same size as the 32-bit Windows output file | 13:46.43 |
| | Oh boy, Acrobat on Windows displays hte output from Linux correctly | 13:48.01 |
| chrisl | So we render it wrongly on Linux? | 13:48.28 |
| kens | I wasn't using GS to view it on Linux | 13:48.40 |
| | I'm not sure what I was using | 13:48.45 |
| | But it rendered the original correctly | 13:48.58 |
| chrisl | Probably evince or okular | 13:49.05 |
| kens | could be just a moment | 13:49.22 |
| | evince | 13:49.44 |
| chrisl | So, poppler, then | 13:49.50 |
| kens | Yes. | 13:49.54 |
| | It does render the original file correctly though | 13:50.02 |
| chrisl | So, how does gs render it? | 13:50.26 |
| kens | I had ot use the jpeg output device, it looks just fine to me | 13:50.46 |
| | I'll try ppmraw because that's what Marcos said he was using | 13:51.05 |
| | out.ppm looks just fine to me. | 13:51.50 |
| | Acrobat and GS display the PDF file correctly, and GS on Linux renders it correctly, so any bugs are not ours :-) | 13:52.50 |
| chrisl | Result! | 13:53.12 |
| kens | I'll update the log then I can leave it to Ray to see if he can reproduce it, I can't | 13:53.34 |
| Robin_Watts | checked in, 56D. | 14:15.32 |
| kens | 57D :-) | 14:15.40 |
| chrisl | I'm back in 63G again - I guess I should have tried to get further forward..... | 14:18.07 |
| Robin_Watts | no tor today. | 14:25.50 |
| | Morning mvrhel_laptop. Did you get your git woes sorted ? | 14:26.02 |
| mvrhel_laptop | Robin_Watts: no I will see if I can get it done today | 14:36.11 |
| henrys | Robin_Watts:ready for another trip so soon? I'd be whining and complaining, you must be a good traveler. | 14:36.20 |
| Robin_Watts | mvrhel_laptop: Well, let me know if I can help. | 14:36.23 |
| | henrys: I've not been hugely productive this week. | 14:36.57 |
| | I'm saving the whining and moaning until after the immigration queue. | 14:37.23 |
| | The worst thing is, that Scott and Miles have failed their fishing trip *again*. | 14:37.48 |
| henrys | I guess you and Helen could have stayed in the states... | 14:37.59 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Helen isn't coming to Miami. | 14:38.15 |
| | This is their 3rd attempt to fish, and the third failure. | 14:38.38 |
| henrys | yeah I talked to miles, I can't imagine he'll make another meeting in Miami thought | 14:38.40 |
| | but he might | 14:38.50 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Not after we all complain about the immigration queue :) | 14:39.18 |
| henrys | Robin_Watts:I was wondering why you didn't stay in the states after Boston. | 14:39.21 |
| | presumably with Helen | 14:39.44 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: She had stuff to get back for. | 14:39.58 |
| henrys | that would have been a trip with a lot of milkshakes | 14:40.23 |
| Robin_Watts | and I'd have been even less productive on a laptop. | 14:40.37 |
| | and I would be EVEN fatter. | 14:40.37 |
| mvrhel_laptop | what happened to the fisshing trip? | 14:40.57 |
| Robin_Watts | From Scott on facebook: | 14:41.17 |
| henrys | weather | 14:41.18 |
| mvrhel_laptop | oh | 14:41.22 |
| Robin_Watts | Well..........third time not a charm. This was our third attempt at fly fishing for Tarpon in the Key West area. There's a huge tropical depression coming in with high seas and winds 30 mph plus. | 14:41.29 |
| | The Capt. called last night said all OK so we headed for Miami this morning. He should have called us this morning and called it off before we left. The short of it is that we're stuck in Miami with nothing to do until the business meeting on Saturday. | 14:41.31 |
| | Sometime the windshield, sometimes the bug. :-) | 14:41.32 |
| | So Miles is stuck with nothing to do in a hotel for 48 hours that's only a mile away from a casino... | 14:42.17 |
| henrys | great maybe we'll fly into a hurricane | 14:42.31 |
| Robin_Watts | http://www.miamiherald.com/2013/06/05/3435455/first-tropical-storm-of-the-season.html | 14:43.10 |
| kens | I saw hte warning when I checked the weather | 14:44.09 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Have you seen "The Americans" ? | 14:53.58 |
| | Aha, just the man. | 14:55.19 |
| | Morning tor8. | 14:55.22 |
| henrys | No I haven't - I've started a SciFi thing a bit cheesy Defiance | 14:55.24 |
| tor8 | hi robin | 14:55.28 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Ah, the game/tv crossover thing. | 14:55.43 |
| henrys | and starting season 2 of supernatural | 14:56.05 |
| Robin_Watts | "The Americans" started here last weekend. It's supposedly "The new Homeland" | 14:56.09 |
| | henrys: ah, so you're hooked enough to do S2 then ? | 14:56.22 |
| henrys | yes remind me to slap you - I can't stop watching it but it is an eye roller. | 14:57.03 |
| Robin_Watts | hehe | 14:57.14 |
| | tor8: http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=user/robin/mupdf.git;a=commitdiff;h=2038da9f179da34328ff5ed1c6bb0317451cb59e | 14:57.31 |
| henrys | the killing has just started its new season also, I've enjoyed the previous ones. | 14:58.37 |
| Robin_Watts | the danish one or the remake? | 15:00.06 |
| henrys | the amc tv series | 15:01.00 |
| tor8 | Robin_Watts: on debian the openjpeg2 package is named libopenjpeg1 (openjpeg 1 is named libopenjpeg) | 15:01.08 |
| | the maintainers cocked up the naming... | 15:01.15 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: sheesh. | 15:01.22 |
| tor8 | it's like jbig2dec is libjbig2dec-0 | 15:01.37 |
| | maybe ubuntu has named it differently | 15:01.50 |
| | or where does the patch come from? | 15:01.56 |
| Robin_Watts | bug 693518 | 15:02.19 |
| | tor8: I'm happy to ignore the patch (as far as I'm concerned, with system libs all bets are off). | 15:04.04 |
| tor8 | Robin_Watts: it's even worse | 15:04.16 |
| | on debian, libopenjpeg2 is version 1.3 | 15:04.25 |
| | so version 1.3 has debian packages: libopenjpeg2 and libopenjpeg-dev. | 15:05.16 |
| Robin_Watts | but no libopenjp2 ? | 15:08.46 |
| tor8 | not on wheezy, sebras said something about it on testing | 15:09.33 |
| | so the patch may well be fine for ubuntu, in which case we could accept it | 15:09.44 |
| | it won't break any of my machines | 15:09.48 |
| Robin_Watts | it may be that there *is* no right answer for any current distro, except for testing. | 15:10.22 |
| tor8 | I can't find any openjp2 in ubuntu either | 15:11.01 |
| | so I'd hold off until we find a distro that actually ships openjpeg2 | 15:11.12 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: OK, I'll attach the patch as a git commit to the bug, and park it. | 15:11.39 |
| | paulgardiner: ping ? | 15:12.02 |
| | henrys: Is the agenda web thing up to date? | 15:29.54 |
| | Can I edit it to have item numbers, or will that break stuff ? | 15:30.52 |
| | henrys: Is the agenda web thing up to date? | 15:32.55 |
| | Can I edit it to have item numbers, or will that break stuff ? | 15:32.56 |
| henrys | No I have a new one broken into sections. Line numbers will break stuff - let's talk about it at the agenda. | 15:33.58 |
| | s/agenda/meeting | 15:35.31 |
| Robin_Watts | Lack of line numbers (or some form of identification) will mean recovery after snoozing is harder. | 15:35.39 |
| henrys | I do think you guys will like this better once you see it in all its glory but if you don't we'll go back. | 15:37.00 |
| Robin_Watts | Stupid macos. | 15:37.25 |
| | how do I tell it to open a finder window on "Elvis" ? | 15:37.45 |
| | got it. | 15:38.18 |
| | ah, you're intending us to use a 'live' agenda document at the meeting? | 15:40.12 |
| henrys | Yes, I'm fine with numbering things if everyone only fixes things in reverse list order ;-) | 15:54.12 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: So I'll have to take a private copy in order to scribble my notes all over it :) | 15:54.46 |
| | henrys: Is there an up to date version I can print out now? (To look at on the plane) | 15:57.20 |
| henrys | Robin_Watts:the link I sent you yesterday - arrow upper right export all - pick a format â¦. | 15:57.54 |
| Robin_Watts | My machine rebooted overnight :( | 15:58.18 |
| henrys | I'm emailing the update shortly | 15:59.14 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: I'll wait then. thanks. | 15:59.27 |
| | henrys: Probably we ought to have an agenda item for progressive display of downloading pdfs. | 16:05.50 |
| | Not because I've got any further on it than I had last time, but because otherwise it will get forgotten. | 16:06.11 |
| henrys | Robin_Watts: added | 16:14.26 |
| | agenda sent | 16:17.12 |
| | bbiab - errand | 16:23.33 |
| kens | I'm off to pack. bye all, see you tomorrow | 16:28.23 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: bug 693652 is not a MuPDF bug. | 16:28.31 |
| marcosw | bye kens | 16:28.33 |
| Robin_Watts | (currently in the MuPDF -> Other section) | 16:28.50 |
| henrys | Right fixed | 16:31.02 |
| | anything else before I leave? | 16:33.36 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Not that I could see. | 16:47.18 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2013/06/07)>>> | |
