This is just a wild guess, but might there be a "sudo" command in a file in your home directory that's run when you launch a Terminal session, such as .bash_profile, .bash_login, or .profile? (This list assumes that you're using bash as your shell.)

[SOLVED] keeping terminal window open for scrot keyboard shortcut

Hey,
Im trying to bind a keyboard shortcut to scrot with the -s command (for selecting window). Normal scrot command works fine straight away, but with the -s command a terminal window needs to be open that waits for the selection. i have created a file called lscrot with the following code:
1 #!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/terminal --working-directory=$HOME/dump/ --geometry 0x0-0-0 -e "/usr/bin/scrot -s"
i have put the file in /usr/bin folder with 755 permissions.
if i right click the file and choose "execute", the new terminal window will stay open and i can select an area to take a screenshot of, but when i bind it to a shortcut key (using xfce) the new terminal window will close immediately rendering the shortcut useless.
how does one fix this?
thanks

hmmm, ok. binding keys to /usr/bin/scrot works fine, but /usr/bin/scrot -s does not. dont really know where to begin searching for a fix...
EDIT: im assuming there is something elementary i am missing. after further testing, launching for example scrot ~/dump/test.png from console works fine, but not when i bind it to a keyboard shortcut. however, scrot test.png works to bind. does anyone know anything more about XFCe and binding keyboard shortcuts?
EDIT2: ok so im honing in a little bit, i realised that the first times i use the keyboard shortcut it works. forcing the terminal window to stay open after command has been executed i see following error:
giblib error: couldn't grab keyboard:Resource temporarily unavailable
Searching the net i found old bug that was closed without (seemingly) being solved.
https://groups.google.com/group/linux.d … 2056017d9a
Any ideas?
EDIT3: ok so found a solution, "sleep". Adding sleep 0.1 to the top of the screenshot script seemed to help. seems you need to give sometime to release the keyboard for scrot to use. would still be great if anyone knew how to get it to work by using a direct command in the keyboard shortcut bindings. ie binding in straight to "scrot -s". using Alt+F2 then typing in scrot -s works fine, so i really dont see why i cant bind a keyboard command straight to that.
NOTE: how do i see xsession errors? I find no .xsession-errors file in my home directory. been searching for months.

Using SecureCRT or other terminal emulator application for Telnet of LMS

Hi Everyone,
How to I set SecureCRT/Hyperterm or other terminal emulator as the one that will be use to telnet a device from Device Center or Topology Services?
Many thanks.

For Device Center, it depends on which browser you use. If it's Mozilla/Firefox, it can be as simple as modifying the Helper application in the Preferences. Or if it's IE 7 or 8, you could modify the registry setting for the telnet:// protocol (see this post https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/670709), or alternatively replace the Windows telnet.exe binary with a shortcut to SecureCRT if you don't mind using the latter all the time.
For Topo Service in Campus Manager, you need to create a campusmgr.properties file as described in http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_campus_manager/5.0/user/guide/cmugfull.pdf, and keep in mind of http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCsa80409 that afflicts CM 4.0 and Windows 2003 and Windows XP clients.

Windowed Application for Flex Mobile Project

I have a project intended for both deskotp and mobile, and so I began it as a Flex Mobile project. I then imported the source into a Flex Air project and everything has been working great--until I added cut and paste functionality using the NativeApplication/NativeWindow model. On a Mac, because there is a default set of menus, this works just fine, but on a pc, the menu is not present unless you define it. My top level class is a ViewNavigatorApplication, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get my NativeWindow NativeMenu built. I have tried plugging code into creationComplete, initialize, preinitialize, but nothing works. I also tried putting a WindowedApplication around the ViewNavigatorApplication, but that too failed.
So is there a way to make this work? While menu support would be nice, I would settle for just shortcut key support.
Thanks in advance,
Adrian

Umm, overall it's doable but you may come up against two or three hurdles:
The program may have to run for hoursThat may require keeping the phone handset connected to a charger, especially if the display backlight is configured to be on continuously.
a sample rate of 20Hz from the sensor.You'll have to cross that bridge when you get there, but I suspect that many handsets won't be able to handle receiving, processing and displaying of data every 50 ms.
log the data and produce simple statistics from a session.Keeping all data in memory probably won't be feasible; writing it to the record store may make the program still slower, further limiting the sampling frequency that can be handled.
In future all Java ME related questions should be posted on the [CLDC and MIDP forum|http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=76].
any pointers as to how to beginIf you have never programmed in Java, go through [The Java™ Tutorials|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html]. If you have some experience in Java but none in Java ME, [this tutorial|http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2005/02/09/j2me1.html] will get you through the basics.

How to use session object in windows application

hi, I am programming in jdeveloper. i need to know that while i m making a web application i can use a session object for the particular session. now i m builiding a windows application for my final semester and i need to insert product id and then it should go to another frame and there it can store multiple information for a particular product id.
e.g
product id : 001
next frame.
filter name.
filter position.
when these are added then it should be able to add more filters for the same product id and i dont understand how to do that.
Please let me know as i am lost and dont know how to proceed further. if some body wants to have a look on the codes he is most welcome.
Waiting for an answer
thank you

Hi,
in Swing applications you don't have a session object to store data. You can use a helper class though to act as a temporary memory. Just create a static class that has a hashtable method to add / read / remove data

Window location for .terminal file

Hi,
I have a custom .terminal file that opens a terminal window to a
specific number of columns and rows, and runs a command.
Although I can cause plain ol' Terminal to open at the top left of the
screen by moving it there, then closing it, my custom file insists on
opening towards the middle of the screen.
I want it at the top left.
I've already deleted the pref file, no joy.
Here are the properties for my custom file:

FM Radio Application for Windows 8

I am trying to develop a simple FM Radio Application for Windows 8 phones. I found one class but it says it will not work for devices targeting windows 8. Can some one please help.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/microsoft.devices.radio.fmradio(v=vs.105).aspx

It's been a long time since I last answered an FM radio question so I might be forgetting some details but basically...
In Windows Phone 7 timeframe the FM radio hardware was part of the requirements but for Windows Phone 8 FM radio hardware was optional and, in fact, the FM Radio drivers were not available until build 8.0.10322.
I cannot recall if the restriction regarding FMRadio API for Windows Phone 8 targeted applications mentioned in the MSDN documentation, is enforced during submission to the store but I know it is possible to use the APIs in a Windows Phone 8 targeted project
during development (...requires: ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_AUDIO I believe.)

Best Practice for Showing Videos in a Windows Application

I am building a windows 8 application that has multiple articles. Each article will have anywhere from 0-3 videos associated with it. I was wondering where I could find some guidelines, best practices or examples about the how best to do this
from a design stand point, so that app is in line with the Windows Application guidelines.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi bcp1978,
>>I was wondering where I could find some guidelines, best practices or examples about the how best to do this from a design stand point, so that app is in line with the Windows Application guidelines
To design a windows app, we need to understand Microsoft design principles first:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/apps/hh781237.aspx Use these principles as you plan your app, and let them guide your design and development choices
Microsoft also provide a page of design guideline:

Resolution 1440 x 900 for Windows applications?

I am attempting to use MacBook Pro (15") to run Windows applications. Some of these are written for a screen resolution of 1280 x 1050, but the max available on the MBP is seemingly 1440 x 900. Is there any way around this, short of buying an external monitor or the 17" MBP?

I was thinking of a solution along the lines of, maybe the device handlers could reduce the Windows app image to the lower native resolution, which could then be displayed.

Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:

Developing Java application for windows CE based Handheld device

there any options in Jdeveloper to deploy the application).Any
body please give the solution.

I agree. In my opinion Sun has done a horrible job documenting all this madness for the average developer just starting out with this stuff. There is the CLDC, J2ME, Personal Java, J2ME-WTK, MIDP, MIDP-FCS ... maddness. Anyway after sorting through it all for a few days, I think the answer to your question you will need to use Personal Java for WinCE and the Sharp Zaurus, and MIDP for PalmOS for the palm. Jeode seems to be the most common and best Personal Java implementation and it is basically the JDK1.2.2 (or is it 1.1.8) that is designed to run on WinCE and Embeddix (such as Lineo on the Zaurus). You program it just like you would a 1.1.8 application and then you can test it by running pjava.exe which is included in the personal java 3.1 download from Sun. There is also a program called JavaCheck that will ensure that your app will run properly in PersonalJava. As for the Palm, MIDP for PalmOS is a 574K program that installs on your palm device. You then use the J2ME-WTK (wireless toolkit) to build a JAR/JAD file and you use the MIDP API to write the code.

You can't open the application "MFI_Simulator.exe" because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X. Can someone assist. I have Office for Mac 2011 on MacBook Pro 13''.

You can’t open the application “MFI_Simulator.exe” because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OS X. Can someone assist. I have Office 2011 on my MacBook Pro, OS X, 10.9.1.

Your Office 2011, though a Microsoft product, is designed to work with OSX the Mac operating system. Any program/application ending .exe is an executable program for Windows. It will only work in Windows and is not part of or openable with Microsoft Office.
the application you want to open needs Windows - you have a couple of alternatives:
Open it on a Windows PC
Install a valid version of Windows via Bootcamp (or Parallels or VM Fusion) which will allow you to boot your Mac into Windows where it will function like a Windows PC and you can use it to run the application.
See if the manufacturers of MFI_Simulator have a Mac version available.
Please note that if you follow the second option, then you will need to purchase a copy of Windows (if you do not have one already). BootCamp is free (part of OSX) but Parallels and VM Fusion cost too. I see quite a few posts from people who buy Parallels and try to run the program under Parallels - this doesn't work - you need to install Windows as well.
Hope this helps.

Windows code for Ctrl+Q in Oracle Terminal

Hello!
We use Forms6i and Windows 95 OS and
in our forms people usually use CapsLock
to type info in upper case and some times
they can't use Exit button (Ctrl+q) because of this. That is why we would like to create
another one Key Binding Definition in Oracle Terminal with Action "Exit" and Binding
"Contol+Q". Did anybody try to define repeated Actions? Is it possible? And,
actually, the main quesion is - where can we
find windows codes for different combinations of keys?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance,
Andrew.

Andrew,
You don't need any window codes to do this.
Just do the following:
a) run Oracle Terminal (you'll have to do a Custom Install if you don't have it installed.
b) open %ORACLE_HOME%\forms60\fmrusw.res
c) Choose Functions->Edit Keys.
d) Doubleclick the "Runform" circle.
e) Click in the "Exit" line.
f) Click the "Duplicate Row" button.
g) Change Control+q to Control+Q.
h) Ok, OK, Functions->Generate.
i) File->Save, File->Exit.
And if you were running Forms6i on the Web, it would be much simpler (the res file for Web is an ascii file).
Hope this helps,
Pedro
