[SOLVED] Escape sequences instead of colors in rxvt-unicode

On a Git cheat sheet I found that I could add nice colors to Git's output, so I edited my ~/.gitconfig by adding:
[color]
ui = auto
[color "branch"]
current = yellow reverse
local = yellow
remote = green
[color "diff"]
meta = yellow bold
frag = magenta bold
old = red bold
new = green bold
[color "status"]
added = yellow
changed = green
untracked = cyan
However, when performing a git log my terminal looks like this:
ESC[33mcommit 226dcb52565b58952b78fb107d8d9def3ca396abESC[m
Merge: 8f8af9f 93341d8
where ESC's colors are reversed. So, instead of yellow commit lines it outputs everything in plain text.
What's wrong with my configuration? I am using rxvt-unicode 9.15-3.

Someone on the mailing list said that this was due to incorrect parameters to my pager, less. Adding -R to $LESS (or deleting the variable entirely) solved this issue.

Escape Sequences for HP Color LaserJet 3600n

I want to be able to print a file to my 3600n printer with certain text printed in color. I print from a Fedora14 box. For output to the screen, I can use the well-known VT100 terminal escape sequences to achieve colored display, in, say, red. I want to achieve the same effect with printed files.
Does the 3600n respond to escape sequences? If so, where can I find a list of these escape sequences?
TIA,
Jon

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

[SOLVED] Highlighted text in the shell, appearance rxvt-unicode

Hi,
Short question, when I highlight text in the shell or when text get highlighted in ncmpcpp or outer app running in the shell it gets basically impossible to read. Because background to text get the same color and strength then the text.
what setting should I look for to change what it look like when I mark and highlight text in the shell?
Thank you!
All the best,
Christer

[Solved] no non-ASCII character input in rxvt-unicode

Hello everyone,
For some days now, I can't write any non-ASCII characters any more in rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode-patched. Unfortunately, downgrading the rxvt-unicode package doesn't seem to help. To have at least a temporary solution, I'd like to know at least which packages I could try to downgrade as well. Any ideas, anyone?
greez,
maxmin

When I try to type a non-ASCII-character I get nothing at all. This happens with my custom keyboard layout (modified programmer dvorak) and in some layouts I already tried (us: altgr-intl, ch, de and fr)
When I paste a non-ASCII characters in rxvt-unicode I get
maxmin ~ $ ?
This happens only on my x86_64 desktop which is more up to date than my i686 laptop. (I'm afraid now to do any updates.)
EDIT: I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean with locale settings. What do you mean with that?
EDIT2: Maybe just typing locale in the terminal is what you mean:
maxmin ~ $ locale
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8"
LC_TIME="en_US.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8"
LC_NAME="en_US.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8"
LC_ALL=
With other terminal emulators I get sometimes also nothing and sometimes right displayed but wrong interpreted character in vim. I didn't take notes while doing that but I'll try again if needed.

URxvt*foreground: rgba:aaaa/aaaa/aaaa/7777
I think this is your font color. Have you tried changing it?
XTerm*foreground: White
This one is for xterm so no wonder it doesn't do anything in urxvt.
Edit: Setting
urxvt.foreground: #aaaaaa
does produce dark font, '#ffffff' gets me bright white, as expected.

[SOLVED] Bash changes consolle's colors by itself

Hi archers,
I've wrote a little script which ask for the result of a given random moltiplication because I was exercising with $RANDOM and something strange's happend.
No matter where I am (Tty, Tmux, Urxvt, Xterm...) Bash changes consolle's colors by itself if I do ^c to stop the script, instead of write a reply.
i.e.'s:
correct behaviour
$ 8 * 9 = ?
$ 72
$ ls
file in red file in yellow file in grey...
Wrong behaviour
$ 8 *9 = ?
$ ^c
$ ls
file in blue file in green file in white...
What the heck?
Bash version is 4.2.39(2)-release.
The script is the following:
while :
do
min="3"
max="7"
fat1="$(($RANDOM%$max+$min))"
fat2="$(($RANDOM%$max+$min))"
prod="$(($fat1*$fat2))"
echo "$fat1 * $fat2 = ?"
read res
while [ "$res" != "$prod" ]
do
echo "$prod"
echo "Insert the correct result."
tavPit
done
return 0
done
Everything is up to date.

Leopard Terminal.app no longer supports ANSI print escape sequences?!!

I print my email using pine's "attached-to-ansi" option, which used to work great in Tiger with Terminal.app. It no longer works in Leopard. It also breaks things like the "ansiprt" Unix command.
This is a start/stop escape sequence that diverts text between the start/stop sequences to the printer. See http://www.termsys.demon.co.uk/vtansi.htm as a reference.
Is there some Terminal.app setting I need to use to enable this? Some specific terminal type perhaps?
Suggesting that I use enscript or other techniques don't work, as I use the Terminal to ssh into my mail server, then run pine on the mail server.
Anyway, any idea how to get this very desirable feature back?
Thanks,
-John

HI,
I tried to set "Escape non-ASCII input" without any change. I didn't see an option to change "Escape non-ASCII output". I tried a few other things without success either using a different terminal type and so forth. I looked in the .term file and didn't see anything text related to ANSI or ASCII or escape.
If I change a Terminal preference do I need to quit and restart Terminal to test the change, or does the change take place as soon as I change it in the menu? I tried quitting and restarting after checking "Escape non-ASCII input" and when I restart the box was unchecked. I couldn't find a "save preferences option either.
In Tiger, my terminal type was xterm-color- same in Leopard. I had checked off "Escape non-ASCII characters" under Tiger.
Here's exactly what I do, *which used to work in Leopard*.
I run Terminal.app on my MacBook, and ssh to a mail server. On the mail server, I run the pine command to read my mail. Pine has an option to print email using ASCII escape sequences. Terminal.app sees these escape sequences and diverts the text to the default printer on my MacBook.
Under Leopard, the Terminal doesn't catch the ANSI escape code, and just spews the text to the terminal window. Nothing has changed on the mail server side. I;m using the sane ssh command.
Enscript won't work, as the printer connected to the mail server is often as not in a different state than my MacBook.
Not all terminal emulators support the ANSI print escape sequences. Terminal didn't before Tiger, if I remember correctly. I used to use a very nice terminal emulator called Data Comet which did it.
ANSI printing used to be a fairly common way to print to a local printer connected to via a parallel cable. Besides pine, the Unix command ansiprt http://kb.iu.edu/data/abye.html could be used to print remote files on the local printer. Some terminal emulator programs used the idea to hook the ANSI escape sequence to the printing system, extending the functionality to use any printer accessible by the local system.
Thanks again for all your help. I hope I've clarified what I'm trying to do.

XML escape sequences for brackets and xmltype.extract

G'day gang, I'm hoping somebody would be kind enough to help me with the following query please.
I have a web service that is returning the following XML stream into an XMLType in the database:
<OutOfStockAdviceResponse xmlns="http://abc.org/abcWebServices">
<OutOfStockAdviceResult>
& lt;Response& lt;ResponseCode& gt;0& lt;/ResponseCode& gt;
& lt;ResponseMessage& gt;Successful& lt;/ResponseMessage& gt;
& lt;/Response& gt;
</OutOfStockAdviceResult>
</OutOfStockAdviceeResponse>You'll note the & lt; and & gt; characters (note to display these strings in OTN I've had to add a space between the & and the lt; or gt;. The spaces don't actually occur in the real XML data coming back).
What's odd about this XML stream coming back is it is mixing the use of the XML angle brackets with the escape character equivalents (eg. & lt; and & gt;) half way through the XML stream. Is this valid for an XML stream to do this? Any idea what would cause this? Is it possible the source is creating 2 separate XML streams using different character sets and then concatenating them to get this result?
The reason I'm asking is I'm attempting via PL/SQL to extract the ResponseCode and ResponseMessage tags with the following code:
v_response_code := XMLType.extract(v_response,
      '/OutOfStockAdviceResponse/OutOfStockAdviceResult/Response/ResponseCode/text()',
      'xmlns="http://abc.org/abcWebServices"').getnumberval;
v_response_msg := XMLType.extract(v_response,
      '/OutOfStockAdviceResponse/OutOfStockAdviceResult/Response/ResponseMessage/text()',
      'xmlns="http://abc.org/abcWebServices"').getstringval;Both calls are failing with:
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowedCan anybody point me in the right direction for solving this issue? Is there a way to get the xmltype.extract function to recognize the different character encoding schemes (if they do indeed actually exist)?
Any help appreciated.
CM.
PS. Apologize for the weak subject line.

Chris
Since that Serviceis actually returning the escaped representation of '<' and '>' inside OutOfStocAdviceResult, the XML Parser considers that whole block of text to be simply a text node child the parent element, not valid XML. Hence the result of your XPath expressions is null and you get the ORA-30625 when you try to invoke the getNumberVal() and getStringVal() methods, which is the PL/SQL equivilant of a Java Null Pointer Exception.
You can solve it as follows...
set define off
set serveroutput on
declare
v_response xmltype;
v_response_code number(4);

Hi Michael,
   I realize that this doesn't actually answer the question but why not just use the actual control characters? You can type them into the command line by typing the following:
echo -n "<Control>-v<Escape>]0;${USER}@${HOST}:$cwd<Control>-v<Control>-g"
which ends up looking like:
echo -n "^[]0;${USER}@${HOST}:$cwd^G"
where ^[ is the shell representation of the <ESC> control character and ^G is the shell representation of the <BEL> control character. Of course <Control>-v means holding down the control key while typing a 'v', <Escape> is the escape key and <Control>-g means holding down the control key while typing a 'g'. That actually works in any shell.

PCL Escape Sequence for PDF417 barcodes

I have purchased the HP Laserjet Font Solutions (HP Part HG271US) for my HP Color LaserJet CP4020 Series printer so that I can create shipping labels with scannable barcodes for our customers. I am able to generate the PCL code and print out code 39 and code 128 barcodes. When I print out the PCL font list, it shows the escape sequences for the code 39 and code 128 barcodes. I need to print out pdf417 barcodes as well but I don't get any escape sequences on the PCL font list or a font ID for the pdf417 barcode.
Does anyone know what the escape sequence is for the PDF417 barcode when using the HP Laserjet Font Solutions (HP Part HG271US)?

A translation of your PCL snippet for Code 128:
<Esc>&a0P Print Direction: 0 degree rotation
<Esc>&a3R Cursor Position Vertical (row 3)
<Esc>&a0C Cursor Position Horizontal (column 0)
<Esc>(9Y Primary Font: Symbol Set (identifier = 9Y)
<Esc>(s1P Primary Font: Spacing: Proportional
<Esc>(s30V Primary Font: Height (30 points)
<Esc>(s0S Primary Font: Style (Upright, solid)
<Esc>(s0B Primary Font: Stroke Weight: Medium
<Esc>(s28687T Primary Font: Typeface (identifier = 28687)
*VttbRackLabelInfo.SupplierCode*
Note that I've changed the "(s30v" to "(s30V" to comply with PCL syntax rules.
And a translation of your PDF417 snippet:
<Esc>&a0P Print Direction: 0 degree rotation
<Esc>&a8R Cursor Position Vertical (row 8)
<Esc>&a113C Cursor Position Horizontal (column 113)
<Esc>(9Y Primary Font: Symbol Set (identifier = 9Y)
<Esc>(s1P Primary Font: Spacing: Proportional
<Esc>(s50V Primary Font: Height (50 points)
<Esc>(s0S Primary Font: Style (Upright, solid)
<Esc>(s0B Primary Font: Stroke Weight: Medium
<Esc>(sp Primary Font: Spacing: Fixed
b Primary Font: Stroke Weight: Medium
24850T Primary Font: Typeface (identifier = 24850)
*ttbRackLabelInfo.PCISegment15*
with the same correction as above; note also that you have specified (the same) stroke weight twice, and two different spacing attributes (the latest will apply).
It's possible that other values for some of these attributes may have non-standard interpretations by the font DIMM (e.g. to specifiy PDF417 error-correction level).

Print in text mode to detect escape sequences

Hello,
We have got an issu, on our .NET print program using Crystal 12 SP3. The issue has concequences on :
- Barcode print on matrix printer
- Barcode print on thermal printer
- Other commands send to a FAX printer driver
Using the SDK, the print driver receives print data in graphical print mode, but it has to be text mode for the printer driver to detect the correct escape sequences. The escapes sequences are used by the driver to switch the font or receive a command.
Is there a way to force the print in text mode ?
The same report printed from Crystal Reports 2008 SP 3 "works", but not from the .NET sdk.
Here is a little example. We made a simple Report, containing 2 simple Text Objects :
Code Barres $ [ /
+$$;111;6;1;1;0;2 z +
$$?0h0123456789$$?0/
We redirected the print driver spool in a file. Here are the outputs :

As you can see above, the characters contained in the report are sent "as this" in the print driver from Crystal Reports 2008. But the pixels represention of the characters are sent from the .Net SDK.

Hello,
thank you for your answer.
I forgot to add the 2008 com+ API output, that is exactly the same as Crystal Report 2008.
- From Crystal Reports 2008 : WORKS
- From a program using the 2008 com+ Runtime API : WORKS
- From a program using the 2008 .Net Runtime API : DON'T WORK
You wrote that all the runtime print engine sends to the printer is essentially a picture. But It do send text using the com+ API.
Should I understand : The .Net runtime print engine can't send text ?

Premiere Pro CC-MediaEncoder : Setting sequence composite linear color ?

Hello, hello,
Someone would tell me what is this option?
Setting sequence> composite linear color (or GPU acceleration rendering quality max neccessary)?
I wonder if the fact that my media encoder takes me 6 H encoding to make a video of 17mn which has no effect does not come from there?
Since I do not know what is this option.
Ahmotiond
Bonjour, bonjour,
Quelqu'un serait-il me dire à quoi sert cette option ?
Reglage de sequence> composite en couleur linéaire (accéleration GPU ou qualité de rendu max, néccessaire) ??
Je me demande si le fait que mon média encodeur me tape des 6 H d'encodage pour encoder une vidéo de 17mn qui ne comporte pas d'effet ne viendrait pas de là ?
Vu que je ne sais pas à quoi sert cette option.

You are not missing anything. This is how it works now in CC.

Sending escape sequences to control command line printing

Hello Java Community,
I am interested in printing PDF files programatically by using a thread that used the runtime environment and the sending a command to print the file.
I hava managed to print files directly to the printer using "cmd /c acrord32.exe /h /p filename.pdf" thanks to iText FAQ.
The problem is that when I try sending the job to an Epson LX 300 printer, the job prints in letter quality while my intention is to print in draft mode.
I imagine that this problem could be resolved by passing escape sequences to set draft mode printing programatically so as to speed up my printing.
Anyone who can help me on how to achieve this.
Will appreciate your help.
Charles

Escape sequence on sender file adapter

Hello XI experts,
My scenario is,
Customer System　=> <CSV File> => File Adapter => Integration Engine
I'm thinking of using Sender File Adapter with File Content Conversion
and setting "," as FieldSeparator.
If there is "," in a text field and I don't want the Adapter to recognize it
as separator, how can I difine escape sequence?
For example,
#default#
aaa,bbb,ccc,SAP,Oracle....
->
aaa
bbb
ccc
SAP
Oracle
#My requirement - define & as escape sequence#
aaa,bbb,ccc,SAP&,Oracle....
->
aaa
bbb
ccc
SAP,Oracle
Any infomaton is appreciated.
Regards,
Tomoatsu

Dou you have a question ?
The character and string escape sequences allow for the representation of some nongraphic characters as well as the single quote, double quote, and backslash characters in character literals and string literals:'\b'     /* \u0008: backspace       */
'\t'     /* \u0009: horizontal tab */
'\n'     /* \u000a: linefeed        */
'\f'     /* \u000c: form feed       */
'\r'     /* \u000d: carriage return */
'\"'     /* \u0022: double quote    */
'\''     /* \u0027: single quote    */
'\\'     /* \u005c: backslash       */In case you are using Java 1.5, you might be interested in System.out.printf(), which usesformat string.
