how would I accomplish this?

  • Image to ascii art and back converters

    I've wanted to find a good image to ascii art converter for ages but have never found one that did everything I'd hope. I had another look today and rediscovered aalib and libcaca. I haven't look into the libraries themselves because I don't want to write my own application (yet?).
    libcaca's img2txt looked promising at first but it seems to be limited to the basic 16 color terminal palette even in urxvt-256-unicode. Is there some setting that determines this? I would really like to try to watch videos in mplayer using 256 colors or more. I've tried using the different driver env variables but they all seem to use 16 colors. It even uses 16 colors when generating TGA image files.
    I also discovered jp2a which is great so far. It's slightly annoying that it's limited to jpg (wtf would anyone choose jpg as your input format for a conversion utility?) but imagemagick's "convert" and some piping do the trick. Again it seems that jp2a only uses the basic 16 bit color palette when printing to the terminal, but it has a full palette when generating html. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be able to generate image files, only direct console ascii and HTML.
    For now I have added jp2a to tiv as an optdep. It uses the full terminal color palette and can even adapt the palette per image to make the most of it. I get some nice ascii output now with "tiv -r 0.6 -a -j /path/to/img". But that as well lacks the ability to convert back to an image format.
    Is there nothing that can convert image files to (full-palette, i.e. >= 256) colored ascii art and then convert the output to its own image? I would really like a way to do batch conversions (e.g. to convert films, if no mplayer codec can do it).
    In particular, does anyone have any simple ideas for converting an HTML-encoded ascii image to a real image file? I expect that it would be relatively simple to use webkit to create a simple utility for this, but I doubt that it would be  easy to do quickly without any experience of webkit.
    *sigh*

  • Trying to change album art and album info on ipod

    i am trying to change the album art and album info on my ipod touch while it is plugged into itunes but while it shows in the itunes window that this information is gone, the ipod still has it and won't update ??
    i have a nano that contains all my music with full description but would just like to transfer a handful of songs to my touch and don't want the albums listed and song titles because i just have a few songs from the artist like a compilation ?
    any help welcome..thanks

    JP:
    Are you sure the artwork's gone? When you add artwork to a music track via iTunes, it is actually added via the ID3 tag, which are embedded in the song file. The only way that the artwork could be removed if if the tag was modified or you converted your music files to a format that does not support ID3 v.2.x tags.
    When you Get Info for a single random song file, and click on the tab for artwork, is this pane empty?
    Have you opened the show artwork box under the Source menu in iTunes? (click on the button with the rectangle below the Source menu).
    Otherwise, I am at a loss as to how all of your artwork disappeared simply by moving it from one drive to another.

  • Mismatch in amount of free space, between UI and System Info.

    I'm running a 2011 15" MBP, with a 2 TB drive in it, and the UI is indicating that I have about 520 some odd GB left. System Info and Drive Genius indicate about 490 some odd.
    I don't foresee this being a huge problem any time soon, but it's bugging me.

  • Displaying album art and bio info

    I know how to get thumbnail sized album art to appear in the bottom left-hand of iTunes. Is there a more souped-up way to get album art and band bio to appear?

    To make the album art appear, hit the fourth button from the left in the bottom left corner. The one with the triangle on it. Of course, to see a albumcover, you'll first need to include them in a tracks ID3- tag.
    As iTunes doesn't include the band bio in the ID3- tag, you won't be able to display it.

  • SRM 7.0 - Hide 'Create Memory Snapshot' and 'System Info' buttons in SC

    Dear forum gurus,
    I have a requirement to hide these 2 fields which appear in the shopping cart wizard in SRM 7.0.
    The configuration to hide fields only handles header and item fields, and this is a screen field. Presumably this would involve a change to the web dynpro application, and is something which cannot be done via configuration?
    Can anyone confirm how this can be done and provide steps?
    Thanks,

  • Looking for ascii art wizards

    I'd like to humbly request someone with the skills or someone who knows the right tools, to take the two images in the upper left (the "arch" and the archlinux word) and convert them to ascii art.
    Now, I do not mean a simple "convert logo.png logo.xpm", that'd be too easy.  I'm looking for:
    a) terminal escapes for colors
    b) sized to fit on a 80x30 screen or so.
    This implies that it should be in a text file, and, on a color terminal, if I "cat archlogo", it should look as intended.
    That makes the "arch" a bit wonky, but still doable... here's an example:
    If anyone can do this, I'd be in your debt forever. Also, if you know any tools to use to do something like this, let me know as well.

    I like to have an Arch logo entry visible with each terminal session so I use a script in /etc/rc.d that is run at desktop login and thereafter as a cronjob (to increment the uptime variable) which outputs to the text file /etc/issue. This is then read by my ~/.bashrc via the simple entry below. I then add a few more things to .bashrc to provide further output but the ascii logo and system info gets it started.
    # Import Issue
    echo
    cat /etc/issue
    echo
    This is the /etc/rc.d script:
    #! /bin/bash
    LGRAY="33[1;6m33[1;37m"
    WHITE="33[1;6m33[1;37m"
    LBLUE="[1;36m"
    DBLUE="[0;36m"
    DGREY="[1;30m"
    UPTIME=`uptime | awk '{for ( i = 3; i <= NF-7; i++ ) if ( i != NF-7 )
    print $i; else print substr($i,1,length($i)-1);}'`
    rm -f /etc/issue
    /usr/bin/clear >> /etc/issue
    echo -e $WHITE' oooo '$LGRAY'Hostname: '$(hostname) >> /etc/issue
    echo -e $WHITE' oOOOOOOOOo '$LGRAY'Kernel: '$(uname -r) >> /etc/issue

  • ASCII ART with SMS

    Is anyone know what is the structure of ASCII Art in SMS format? some i found is using line.separator, which allow do draw alots of ASCII art in 160 characters...
    im trying to create an application on server which able to create ASCII ART and send as SMS to any mobile phone, is anyone has any idea? this project is just started and im currently doing research now. Or any sites to refer?
    regards,
    howsen

    Sure, you could use \r or \n (or both) as a line sep in an SMS. But note, that lots of phones do not have monospaced fonts, and therefore ASCII art will just be rubbish (apport for the various screen sizes you'll have to take account for).
    Still, sounds like a fun idea ;)

  • I have an external hard drive from my time capsule that stopped working on me. I am attempting to access the data with a hard drive reader on my MAC. I am able to see the drive in disk utility and under system info USB. But I am unable to access the data.

    I have an external hard drive from my time capsule that stopped working on me. I am attempting to access the data with a hard drive reader on my MAC. I am able to see the drive in disk utility and under system info USB. But I am unable to access the data and it does not show on the desktop when connected.

    Ok if disk utility was able to verify the drive I doubt there is any problem.. are you trying to open a TM backup??
    You need to mount the sparsebundle then check the actual info inside the bundle.
    Don't use disk warrior.. if the disk has verified then unless you deliberately deleted files there is nothing that is going to do.
    Pondini has a lot of stuff about getting access to the sparsebundle.
    http://pondini.org/TM/17.html
    But if you have copied info to the TC that is now gone.. and the disk is ok.. I am not sure.. the TC will not have deleted the files itself.

  • I recently moved my itunes library. Itunes deleted a lot of artist and album info and album art. Now it won't let me edit the info to correct it. Any advice on to correct this?

    I recently bought a new Asus laptop and moved my itunes to it. All of my files are stored on an external hard drive. In the process of importing my files into itunes on the new laptop, some artist and album info has been deleted. A lot of album art is missing as well. I attempted to correct the missing info, but now itunes won't let me edit any track, artist or album info. Any idea what the problem is and how I can fix it? Thanks.

  • Lion disables system info and software update in about this mac

    hey guys I have problem with lion when I reboot lion,
    it disables system info and software update in "about this mac"
    actually it says "this button is disabled because there is no system profiler application" or  "this button is disabled because there is no software update application"
    and also everytime when I reboot my computer it always changes default applicatons. for example
    it changes from VLC player to quicktime,  from Archive utility to textEdit and so on.
    each time i got to reinstall "Afloat application" if i want to use it.
    for making them ok I just need to open software updater from system pref. and the button becomes visible again.
    it is same with the system info. I gotto search system profiler via spotlight search and I run, button becomes visible again.
    for the archieve utility i got to go to coreservices and open Archieve utility then automatically it becomes default app for .zip files again.

    Did you just install Lion? If so, you might need to try to reinstall as something got messed up.
    Alfoat uses SIMBL which will break at just about every update. The reason you may have to keep installing Afloat is because the Resume feature of Lion is not compatible with SIMBL. See here: http://roaringapps.com/app:383
    SIMBL is a low-level system hack and may be causing your problems.

    The late, great Pondini was investigating that issue before he passed away.

    I think there might be information there on how to reset Time Machine to do a full backup. I think you basically have to reset it and start over.

  • IPS Signature versions doesnt match from system info and dashboard

    Hi, I have a customer who has a IPS runing version 6.2(1)e3. after the last auto update, the sig version from the asdm system info shows 377, however from the IDM health dashboard, the sig version shows 373, I am wondering if someone can provide some suggests what might cause the problem, thanks in advance

    When this happened to me, I rebooted the sensor and fix it. If the IPS sensor is "inline", be sure you are in Auto bypass mode. Meaning - if the sensor fails, traffic is not halted.
    Hope this helps.
