[Tuxpaint-dev] Case sensitivity in filenames
I just tracked down a user's problem (hopefully) to a case-sensitivity problem in Tux Paint. It looks like the files they made in Windows were saved as ".PNG", rather than ".png", so Tux Paint just read right past them, and didn't think to load them. I'll add a bug entry over at SourceForge... :^) -bill!

[Tuxpaint-dev] it's fast now
Tux Paint now starts up in just over 1 second, 640x480, with everything enabled. Memory usage has dropped dramatically. Stamp scrolling will be a bit rough the first time through; that is fixable with a prefetch process in case it matters. There are two empty functions, flip_surface() and mirror_surface(), that need code. Very little is now kept in memory. Each stamp get a 5-word struct. Once scrolled to, sound and text may get attached to this struct. It would be good to free the sound data when not needed, but I'd have to see what SDL thinks of that. (the sound might be playing) Here is some data from the "top" program: PID USERVIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEMTIME+ COMMAND 8696 root157m 137m 25m S 0.0 27.3 315:57.14 XFree86 8812 albert 128m 93m 45m S 0.0 18.6 60:29.86 firefox-bin 8838 albert 128m 93m 45m S 0.0 18.6 0:00.15 firefox-bin 8839 albert 128m 93m 45m S 0.0 18.6 0:04.73 firefox-bin 8841 albert 128m 93m 45m S 0.0 18.6 0:37.76 firefox-bin 7382 albert 128m 93m 45m S 0.0 18.6 0:00.02 firefox-bin 9536 albert 85500 73m 9264 S 0.0 14.7 0:17.64 tuxpaint.old 9537 albert 85500 73m 9264 S 0.0 14.7 0:00.00 tuxpaint.old 9538 albert 85500 73m 9264 S 0.0 14.7 0:00.00 tuxpaint.old 9539 albert 85500 73m 9264 S 0.0 14.7 0:00.00 tuxpaint.old 9540 albert 32292 21m 9268 S 0.0 4.4 0:00.69 tuxpaint 9542 albert 32292 21m 9268 S 0.0 4.4 0:00.00 tuxpaint 9543 albert 32292 21m 9268 S 0.0 4.4 0:00.00 tuxpaint 9544 albert 32292 21m 9268 S 0.0 4.4 0:00.03 tuxpaint So, what is the remaining 21 MB going to? Merging the *.dat file into the *.txt file (or PNG text) would speed things up.

Yes. This is not good. There should be some way to better
control this, and determine if do_quit needs to be used.
This is the result of an emergency fix for some very bad
behavior. During start-up, it's very important that Tux Paint
respond to quit events. When I am running low on memory or
start Tux Paint with everything enabled and Electric Fence,
my system can become very unresponsive. There's also the
case of people who started Tux Paint by accident, which is
easy enough to do via a menu system.

Good question. :^)
Just counting TTFs, ("locate .ttf | wc -l"), I apparently have 1300 !?!?
A few aren't "installed" fonts, but some fonts I was testing in Tux Paint,
for example, but a good 1200 are fonts living outside "/home".
I just noticed something. If you hit [Esc] while Tux Paint is loading
fonts when you go to the Text tool, it quits cleanly (from what I can tell),
but does NOT remove the lockfile!
