Episode 129: Octave Sharpening Python Plugin
,----[ Quote ]
| This is the second time I try to get into
| Python scripting for GIMP. My script in the
| first show about scripting was simple, just
| saving some clicks. Now it is more
| complicated, variables, loops and floating
| points included. But no parrots!

Songbird - The finest music player ever
,----[ Quote ]
| Songbird is the new Polio cure, the Elvis
| of digital media, King Henry V, you name
| it. It's truly spectacular. And it achieves
| all this by being simple, unobtrusive. The
| interface is smooth and polished and
| intuitive. I did not even suffer a moment
| of confusion or hesitation while I played
| with Songbird.
|
| On top of that, you get lots of online
| services, decent and relatively cheap, tons
| of useful media info via mashTape, many
| worthy extensions, and a powerful, easy-to-
| use search. Everything is there, at the tip
| of your fingers. The colors are toned down,
| there are no useless visual tricks to steal
| your eye's focus or distract you from pure
| pleasure.
|
| You get everything you need and then some.
| Furthermore, it's fast, responsive and
| stable and works great. Songbird is simply
| superb!
|
| This should be and must be your music
| player. I give it a perfect ten! Enjoy!
|
| Thanks to all who suggested it!

Comparing torrent clients
,----[ Quote ]
| Purely in the name of science, I dumped
| every torrent I could find on the front
| page of LinuxTracker into the 600m, and let
| it spin up. Thatâs 86 torrents, probably
| more than 60Gb of disk space, and generally
| speaking a considerable workload.

Linux applications: Part 1 - Productivity
,----[ Quote ]
| As I mentioned in a recent post, I have
| recently switched to a Linux distribution
| as my operating system of choice. Many
| other users may be put off from making a
| similar switch because they are concerned
| that they may not be able to use the
| applications that they know from the
| Windows environment. While some
| applications are not available on Linux,
| there are a number of alternatives that
| offer all the most important features and
| have the benefit of not costing a penny.

On Ailurus and w3m
,----[ Quote ]
| The default Ubuntu experience might be good
| but this makes it more accessible ; )
| Adding and removing applications could be
| quite confusing for new Linux users, no
| matter what distro it is. Ubuntu Geek has a
| good blog entry with screenshots that show
| us how easy it is to install applications
| with Ailurus. I hope to read more stories
| about how universities have used Ailurus to
| their advantage. Especially on the caching
| aspect and the downloading from the fastest
| mirror bit.
