    #cow #cde #wayland I&#39;ve been making steady improvements to cowbuttons and have come up with a fairly accurate approximation of CDE&#39;s panel. See screenshot attached. What is CoW? It&#39;s a window manager for wayland using River as the compositor. https://codeberg.org/cow-wm/cow

    Bought this book today. Despite the lack of CDROM I’m still disappointed. I originally tried to buy this on Amazon. It was declined. I cannot but help think Daniel Flannagen has something to do with this. I’ve been interested in this book for some time. The fact the CDROM is missing is frustrating. If anyone can help locate it I’m grateful. #motif #xlib

    #tmux #noai I&#39;ve done a fair bit of tmux development over the years. Here&#39;s the last version (tmux-3.6a) before any known AI was introduced: https://codeberg.org/thomasadam/tmux I&#39;m absolutely willing to maintain this and make it available, etc. Depends on how much appetite there is for it.

    #vt320 #tty #cables Hey all, I&#39;m wondering if there&#39;s anyone out there who can point me in the eight direction. I have a VT320 terminal I want to use, but am lacking the MMJ cable -- this is quite common. I&#39;m not in a position to create one myself, and even then, likely won&#39;t be able to connect to a computer without a USB to serial converter anyway. I&#39;m curious if there&#39;s anyone in the UK/Europe who makes these cables, in which case I&#39;m happy to pay for that --...

    To give you a more tangible idea of CoW’s functionality, I’ve thrown together this video: https://youtu.be/tRdhfRfdPuI Forgives the low quality. I’m not an “influencer”. Also, I sound slightly bunged up thanks to hay fever. If you can suffer all that, have fun!

    #gameoftrees #macOS #got Hi all. Just putting the feelers out as I&amp;#39;d love to know how many folks are using got on MacOs. @teajaygrey does an amazing job every time I make a release of gameoftrees portable, but I could do with knowing how many of you are using it. I made a change in the 0.123 release to fix socket handling for services such as gotwebd, which is good, but it&amp;#39;s telling that it&amp;#39;s taken this long, so I wonder how many users we have. Let me know -- you ca...

    #gameoftrees #got I&amp;#39;ve released got-portable 0.123 This is in-line with got(1): https://gameoftrees.org/releases/changes.html There is one addition in this -portable release but is out-of-band with got(1) and it&amp;#39;s a fix for chroot(1) handling in gotwebd which was not being passed to children of gotwebd. This will be in got-0.124 when that releases. On MacOS, socket handling has been reworked to use fcntl() for a few SOCKET_* flags otherwise supported on other platforms. A...
