I actually didn't understand your answer.

What I said was to enable https by default and XAMPP have made it quite
easy.

If it can't be enabled by default then at least it should be as simple as
adding one line or uncommenting one line: Listen 443.

Currently, enabling https in apache http server is not easy and takes
multiple steps.

XAMPP doesn't require generation of SSL  certificate by the user but its
certificate can't be used in production and this is ok because its
certificate can be used during development.

I am just suggesting that why can't official apache http server do the same
as XAMPP.

The main problem is that it is not recommended to use XAMPP in production
so we need official apache http server in production.

By the way, I don't understand how the default certificate can be abused.

Anyways, may be I didn't understand well enough but please have a look as
to how XAMPP is doing it and whether their certificates, etc. can also be
abused or not.

GE

In XAMPP (https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html) https can be enabled
easily (change of only couple of lines is required).

XAMPP has apache http web server.

It looks like they have a default SSL certificate in their distribution.

Fitefox and other browsers complain something like "the certificate is not
trusted" but they also give an option of taking the risk and going ahead.
When you go ahead, you can access your site using https.

This is good when a developer is developing a website on his local computer.

Later, when going for hosting the website, the hosting providers do
everything for you for supporting https.

So, if whatever XAMPP has done in their distribution of apache http server,
if the same can be done in official apache http server then this will be of
great help during  website development and testing.

Please support/enable https by default in the Apache web sever.

2023-09-30 Thread General Email
Hi,

Everyone is moving to "https" these days. Almost no one is using "http"
these days.

Please support/enable https by default in the Apache web server.

Enabling https support manually is a lengthy (and probably a little bit
difficult) process.

Hi,

so I manually created .conf file in /etc/ld.so.config.d with 
/usr/local/lib content and after running sudo ldconfig, RHVoice is 
working now. Now I am looking for scons parameter, which allows me to 
install RHVoice not to /usr/local/lib, but to /usr/lib, but it's a

Please go to the definitive source instead. The directions on RHVoice

in order to build the binary. You would also need audio libraries and 
their respective development packages plus I guess pkg-conf and the 
respective development package.


First we need to check and locate package groups and install them.


localhost$ sudo dnf group list


For me this shows three likely candidates which are: 'RPM Development 
Tools', 'Development Tools' and perhaps 'Fedora Packager'.


We'll install them by running


localhost$ sudo dnf group install 'RPM Development Tools' 
'Development Tools' 'Fedora Packager'



Secondly we need source code, dependent libraries and their 
respective development packages.
We need to check the official documentation on 
https://github.com/RHVoice/RHVoice/blob/master/doc/en/Compiling-on-Linux.md
By reading the documentation we find out that we need a tool called 
scons. My wild guess is that it is readily available on one of the 
preconfigured repositories. Let's find out by running



sudo dnf search scons


Which for me shows a candidate called python3-scons. Then we'd like 
to check this indeed is the tool we want. We can compare information 
on scons.org web site with information on the install candidate package.


Package information can be read running

sudo dnf info python3-scons


Use the same commands but use 'pulseaudio' and 'speech-dispatcher' as 
the last argument to dnf search (in place of scons). This way we find 
the needed development packages.


Since these are not package groups but single packages this time we 
use 'dnf install' instead of 'dnf group' install.



localhost$ sudo dnf install python3-scons pulseaudio-libs-devel 
speech-dispatcher-devel




Can someone help please?


Sorry for my earlier ignorance. I've been busy on other fronts 
lately. I didn't do the actual installation of the packages mentioned 
in this email nor did I try compiling RHVoice. That's left for an 
excercise to you. Later on if you would like to start packaging 
software for Fedora you'd need to get used to rpm packaging and spec 
files. There is pretty good documentation available for that.


Hope this helps enough to get started compiling stuff on your box.

I did that all be it accidentally the first time.  Nothing at all

Re: Can I Translate Audio Among Languages?

2023-09-26 Thread Linux for blind general discussion
I've been loosely following this discussion and if there ever was
an example of how wonderful unix-like operating systems are, a
problem like this accentuates why unix-like systems are so good.

Someone mentioned software that translates spoken audio
in to English text.  Now, all you have to do is feed that text in
to a system with a screen reader and you've got exactly a system
for delivering English, Spanish or whatever you want with
whatever language you are looking for as the input.  Of course,
the voice will just be the screen reader or whatever
text-to-speech engine you re using but still, with the powerful
standard output concept of unix, one doesn't need to do a lot of
unusual programming requiring linguistic knowledge at all to get
where you are trying to go.  The problem, of course, will be
reduced to a mechanical issue of how do I get the text output
from this program sent through standard output to the input of
the speech engine?  Notice, I've been saying unix-like and that's
for a reason.  There is Unix with a capital U which is actually a
trademark of AT who developed Unix in 1968 or 1969.  They
wanted to come up with a way to make 1 main-frame computer serve
all the workers in a project at what seems to be the same time
but, in reality, is a very small difference in time for each
client.

So, everybody is on a really fast-spinning merry-go-round
in which each horse is in the spot light for a fraction of a
second and appears to have the computer to themselves.
Everything they need  is theirs and their's alone for a split
second.  Then, time is up for them and the computer saves
everything from that rider and the next horse comes in to view
and so on.  If things are good, nobody gets to see what their
neighbors are doing unless invited but it's all so fast that
nobody notices the slight delay.

Linux is an operating system that is like AT's Unix in
concept plus a zillion other versions of Linux are the same.  DEC
in the 1980's had Ultrix and IBM came along with their version of
a unix-like OS so probably very few of us are using Unix with a
capital U but we all have that Unix to thank for a great idea..

O well, I should stop blathering now but the translation idea is
one of the greatest examples I've seen in a long time of what
unix-like OS's are really good at.

Hi,

The notes played by GRUB at boot time use the internal buzzer, not the sound
card, that's why you could hear these notes.

To understand the issue with your hardware it would help to use alsa-info.sh
like this (as root to using sudo):

alsa-info.sh --no-upload --output alsa-info.txt

You can always get the last version of alsa-info.sh like this:

wget http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh

Feel free to send me the file alsa-info.sh directly:

I bought a crystal usb sound card from thinkpenguin.com I can plug into a
laptop like that and maybe have the laptop come up talking.  I like amixer
set Master 100% unmute && speaker-test to sometimes fix sound card
problems like these.

A few suggestions:

1. Try a very recent kernel, just in case compatibility has improved.

2. You may need to play with ALSA settings (e.g., amixer) to get the 
audio device working.


If you can start sshd, you should be able to log in from another system

Re: Talking Images for 64-bit Laptop

2023-09-26 Thread Linux for blind general discussion
I am sorry, but I have bad news.  I downloaded the image, sent it
to a 32-GB usb card and tried it.  The system immediately found
the EFI partition and played the 3 notes in ascending order
within 5 or 10 seconds after powering on.  I pressed Enter and
waited and waited and waited, left the room for a few minutes,
came back, waited some more but that was the last sound.

Later, it occurred to me that I might get it to talk if
there was a usb sound card since those devices are in common use
everywhere.

I now had this lap top with a 4-port extender containing
a full-size keyboard and the 128-GB thumb drive that was the
target of the Linux installation so why not also plug in a usb sound
card.

I did and slint found that card.  This is a very good way
to set this part of the installation since the person doing the
install must respond.

I did make several later tries and confirmed that this
lap top's native sound interface is like a lot of native sound
interfaces in that it is too proprietary for it's own good.

One of my favorite items when doing this sort of thing is a
portable AM radio to more or less get an electroencephalogram of
whether the computer seems to still be alive.  One tunes to a
blank spot near the low end of the AM band if there is no radio
station there and listens to the static that the circuitry in the
computer makes as it computes.

If something is wrong and the computer locks up, the
crackle, pop, beep and squeak abruptly stop and there is nothing
but the hiss of the radio.

The computer, in this case, doesn't lock up but slint
never sees a viable native sound interface to probe.  I hear lots
of zips, pops squeaks and beeps of all kinds indicating that the
computer is still alive and well but not talking.  Adding the usb
sound card gives slint something it can recognize as a sound
interface.  It did start voicing the screen just like it should
but it should have found the native interface automatically.

I have another Debian 11 distribution that uses the same
concept of sending an English message to every sound card asking
one to press enter if this is the correct card and it talks all
the time through the installation process.

For now, I am using that installer since it is the same
debian version I wanted anyway which is bullseye or debian 11.

That install image does find the HP lap top's native
sound interface.  When the installation is complete, it has
produced some unpleasant surprises on other systems I have used
it on if their native sound cards were particularly complex.  One
system, for instance, talked all the way through the installation
but wouldn't reliably talk after booting to the installed system.
Simply unplugging the speaker or plugging in a set of headphones
would kill the audio.  It turned out to think that hdmi was
supposed to be the correct output.

If this helps any, this lap top appears to have no
trouble sending the musical notes at the boot time.  The oldest
PC's had a system for making noises which you are probably very
familiar with which used a timer-counter integrated circuit that
was fed from a roughly 1-MHZ clock.  The 16-bit counter in the
chip is fed with some constant depending upon what note or pitch
one needs.  There is also a gate which connects pure DC to the
speaker or nothing if we are on the low half of the cycle.  Tones
are produced by stuffing this constant in to the counter and the
counter counts down to 0 and then restarts after sending a pulse
to the speaker.

You can get an amazing number of noises out of such a
circuit from Morse Code to at least video-game quality music.

I am guessing this lap top has some modern version of
that noise-maker timer-counter-switch in order for the music to
come  through but obviously, we need to find the built-in sound
card for speech to work.

I am certainly not complaining about slint.  As one who
likes to tinker with computers, PIC microcontrollers and radios,
I know how difficult it is to make just about anything work over
the broad range of situations that public users produce so, if
there is any information I can provide to help, I am glad to do
so.

Note that if you're in a graphical environment, switching to a virtual 
terminal is achieved with ctrl-altF1, ctrl-alt-F2, etc., and at least 
one of those terminals will be taken up by your graphical session. These 
days, tty1 is usually devoted to the graphical session; possibly tty2 as 
well.

sources which is a nice thing to have but won't do the job at
hand right now.  I should mount it and see what's there but it
produced a thumb drive with 1 single partition of type hidden
according to fdisk -l /dev/sdx.

This whole project is going fairly nicely in that my wife helped
me turn off secureboot and change the boot order to usb first
then internal drive and, if the internal drive wasn't sick, I'd
be up and running.

Another debian-11 distro on a different thumb drive jups
right in to the installation routine if you type s at the beeps
and the system seems to just love it.

Since the keyboard is a laptop keyboard, getting a
secondary tty is a bit tricky.  I had good beginners' luck after
getting to the partitioner but I haven't been able to duplicate
that more than once.  I held alt+F1, I think and got the second
console and was able to look around in /dev.  The mentally-ill
internal drive, however, was nowhere to be found and the only
/dev/sdx listing was my boot drive for Linux.

I killed everything and restarted but couldn't get the
second console or any of the others to show but the partitioner,
this time could see every drive in the system and their
descriptions were spot on so I could have installed then had I
wanted to do so.

I could see that the internal drive is a Kingston ssD
with 2 terabytes and all the partitions including Microsoft's
partition were listed.  I am sorely tempted to plug a real
keyboard in to a usb converter which has a number pad like the
good Lord meant keyboards to have, I mean a real number pad, not
these fake ones that only give you numbers but have no numlock to
cycle back and forth.

When I was going to the school for the blind, they
started us in typing on QWERTY keyboards back in 1962 when I was
in the Fifth grade so it's nice when stuff stays in the usual
place.

That time when I could see all the drives on the system
and could have installed Linux, I kept getting a really nice
keyboard help instead of the secondary consoles so I don't know
what changed but I couldn't call them up any more.

The keyboard help said F1 when I pressed the key to the
right of Escape so alt + that should have switched to tty1 from
tty0.

Anyway, I'll try your suggestion and see if I get slint
when I put that image in.

When I get Windows 11 working again, I will have a laptop
with windows  11 or a Linux laptop if I plug in the slint image,
hopefully the correct one this time.

I do see that the CMOS clock is right in that if I do the
date command from /dev/tty1, I see a utc date that is appropriate
for my time zone.  Older Windows systems set the CMOS clock based
on local time so this one is new enough to do it the right way.

In the past, I have occasionally had urls fail and it was
my fault because I had written some perl code to make reading
email messages and the like read more smoothly by removing some
8-bit charactors.  This did, in fact clean things up but it's
like fire, a wonderful servant but a terrible master.  It made
things look fine but sometimes altered punctuation marks and
special symbols so that they were either missing or mangled and
so I thought I had gotten rid of that helper code I had written
for the output handler so I don't know if that bug has bitten
again or what.
urls are where this happens most often.

I put a textual screen shot of how the wget went so
whatever happened, it is sneaky.

Anyway, thank you for your help.  I am sure that this
should get working soon as I believe that system is probably okay
except for the corrupted Windows drive and I may have to find a
usb instance of Windows 11 for that issue but that's for another
list about the care and feeding of Windows 11.  For here and now,
the only problem is that the wget is coming up with 404's all
round.

[Jgeneral] Report of J Wiki Meeting 2023-09-21

2023-09-24 Thread 'robert therriault' via General
== Report of Meeting 2023-09-21 ==

Present: Art Anger, Ed Gottsman, Raul Miller, and Bob Therriault

Full transcripts of this meeting are now available on the its wiki page. 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Wiki/Report_of_Meeting_2023-09-21

1) Ed has run into some problems with the beta of the J Viewer on Windows. The 
decision was made to put the beta on pause for Windows and to let the testers 
know that Windows testing is on hold until Ed gets a Windows box for testing. 
Bob had mentioned that he had seen a flash on the screen before components 
expand. More troubleshooting on that issue in the transcript. We determined 
that JQt version J9.4 does work for the Mac so that beta test can go forward, 
while we figure out the 9.5beta issues that seem to be related to the new 
version of JQt.

2) Bob thinks he will be off the grid for the next two Thursdays and for now 
will set the next meeting as Thursday, October 12. If this changes then the 
invitations will be sent out in advance of the Thursday meetings.

3) Bob plans to build out the landing pages in advance of the switch over to 
the new look wiki. https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Category:Home Also, required 
is for the J Search Bar to be put up in the wiki as it has been in the 
prototype wiki https://code2.jsoftware.com/wiki/Category:Home. Raul feels that 
we can do this when it is needed.
For access to previous meeting reports 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Wiki_Development

If you would like to participate in the development of the J wiki please 
contact us on the general forum and we will get you an invitation to the next J 
wiki meeting held on Thursdays at 23:00 (UTC) Next meeting is October 12, 2023.

RHVoice under Fedora question

2023-09-24 Thread Linux for blind general discussion

Hi,

I want to install RHVoice from source under Fedora, but I have a problem 
identifiing names of the correct dependencies. Ubuntu says:


apt-get install gcc g++ pkg-config scons libpulse-dev libspeechd-dev

So gcc and g++ are ok, but I can not find the correct package names for 
other dependencies.


Can someone help please?

Wikipedia tells us that "The Unix Programmer's Manual was first published on 
November 3, 1971. The first actual man pages were written by Dennis Ritchie and 
Ken Thompson at the insistence of their manager Doug McIlroy in 1971."

GNU Info is a de facto documentation standard for UNIX-like operating systems 
in the same way that GNU Hurd is a de facto kernel standard for UNIX-like 
operating systems - which is to say, not at all.  Forcing the user to "jump 
through hoops" - "Full documentation  ... available locally via: info ..." - to 
gain a reasonable overview of the coreutils system commands is little more than 
a juvenile disparaging  of the traditional Unix Manual.

As for Info itself, I will always use "zless 
/usr/share/info/coreutils.info.gz", rather than "info '(coreutils) rm 
invocation'", just to avoid dealing with info's arcane navigation commands.

Arguments about the de facto documentation standard for UNIX-like operating 
systems is not going to be resolved here and now, and adding a couple of 
sentences to coreutils/man/rm.x is not a big ask.

I suspect there's nothing readily available in terms of  direct
automated audio-to-audio translation, even in the paid realm and that
the best that can currently be done is speech-to-text on the input
stream, machine translation on the outputted text, and then
text-to-speech on the translated text.

Though passable real-time translation of audio would be pretty darn cool.

Sounds like you want whisper. It's an AI audio to text thing, from what I

else. But you can feed it recordings and have it spit back text, so it seems to

After booting it from a USB drive, I ran both BRLTTY and Speakup from

coreutils/man/rm.x - fails to mention POSIX "Refuse to remove path/. and path/.., as well as `.' and `..'

2023-09-23 Thread James Feeney via GNU coreutils General Discussion
coreutils 9.3
coreutils/man/rm.x

Even though "rm" was modified,

Sat Apr 20 00:03:09 1991  David J. MacKenzie  (djm at geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
...
* rm.c (rm): Refuse to remove path/. and path/.., as well as `.' and `..', for 
POSIX.
...

the rm(1) man page completely fails to mention this particular POSIX promise.

If the user already knows how GNU rm will respond to "rm -rf *", they don't 
need to look at the man page.

If the user does *not* know how GNU rm will respond to "rm -rf *", the GNU rm 
man page is not going to help them.

Language should be added to the GNU rm man page explicitly stating the POSIX 
behavior:

If either of the files dot or dot-dot are specified as the basename portion of 
an operand (that is, the final pathname component) or if an operand resolves to 
the root directory, rm shall write a diagnostic message to standard error and 
do nothing more with such operands.

including the additional requirement with respect to the root directory.

Talking Images for 64-bit Laptop

I have a HP Pavilion lap top system which my wife was using to
run Windows 11 and it is presently failing to boot but
fortunately for this list, that is not what I am really here to
post about.

What I think I need is a bootable version of linux which
is similar in behavior to the many Raspberry Pi images available
that can fit on a SSD card.  Usually, they are compressed and
will fill the SSD card one has written the image to so they are
not your standard iso live CD's but one uses it as a
self-contained Linux system.  What I want to do is keep Windows
11 on the SSD but get the laptop capable of booting off of a
bootable usb drive if it is present.  If not, it goes ahead and
boots Windows.

This will probably require changing the BIOS settings to
turn off secureboot and have usb be the first boot candidate
tried.

Right now, for this discussion, I am asking if there is
such an image for a 64-bit system.  If it talks, that's the icing
on the cake but if not, I still might be able to use it via ssh
from a system that does talk.

I want to use this instance of Linux to try to fix the
problem the dead box is having but also use Linux to backup the
box since Windows does not have a native backup program.  This
also gives me yet another portable Linux box as if I needed one.

As far as this list is concerned, is there something like
this out there and does it talk?

Another reason why I have not simply tried to use a
debian installation image is frankly because there is a slight
chance of accidentally installing it on the SSD where Windows 11
currently lives so I want to avoid that if possible.

The idea is to do no more harm than has already been
done.  From what I read based on the error screen, the problem is
fixable but if I write to the wrong device, that pretty well
blows things up so I am playing it safe if possible.

One person mentioned grml with clonzilla which sounds
like a good thing but at this stage, I am open to any suggestion.
Don't forget that it's a laptop so one can't just pop drives and
memory cards in and out like one should be able to do in a
desktop system so I am trying to avoid doing that unless the SSD
proves to be bad.

Thanks.

Re: [Evergreen-general] Staff training

2023-09-20 Thread Miller, Jeremy via Evergreen-general
We regularly run a few little reports that seem to help ease things for those 
concerned about resource sharing.

One is a grid, with counts of circulations of “our stuff” in a month to “not 
our patrons”.
Each row is a library or branch, representing the owner of items.
Each column is also a library or branch, representing the “other 
libraries/branches” where items checked out.
Totals for each row and column are there, too.
Each cell in the resulting grid basically shows how much of “your stuff” 
checked out at “that library”, or at “all other libraries” in the total field.
Or looking at it from the other direction… how much stuff from other libraries 
“your patrons” have had access to that they otherwise wouldn’t, without 
purchasing your own copy or doing an ILL.

There are multiple versions of that grid, that first one is circulations (item 
circ lib vs circ circ lib).  Others instead show holds captured vs pickup 
library, or transit sending vs destination library.  But they all paint the 
same basic picture of what the impacts of resource sharing are in terms of 
staff handling of materials, and how much stuff is going out to other patrons, 
vs coming in for yours.  (Of note… our consortium happens to be small enough to 
do such things, without the size of the grid getting out of hand.)

But the favorite seems to be what we call “cost of items shared”.
It is a dollar figure (derived from item prices) showing how much it would have 
cost to purchase all of the items that had been shared to them/their patrons in 
a given month, for each library.  It is done per unique item, so shouldn’t be 
any double counting.  Which probably matters more when we run it for an entire 
year.  Giving people dollar figures for how much larger your own budget might 
have to be to provide the same access to materials your patrons are getting, if 
you had to do it by yourself… tends to grab attention.

None of these reports would be particularly helpful before starting sharing, 
but doing something like that may calm some nerves afterward, once you have 
activity to draw the data from.

Cheers

Libraries can also enable settings that bring items home when their patrons

Some people are more nervous about change than others. That's o.k. But the

In addition to the age hold protection, we have a few libraries that use the

allows them a little more control when a movie, show, or reboot comes out based

Otherwise, a lot of our smaller libraries report how happy their patrons are 
when they are able to easily request items from other libraries without having

Re: [Evergreen-general] Staff Training Roundtable

2023-09-20 Thread Dorsey, Britta via Evergreen-general
I am absolutely interested in this!

We currently offer Basic Cataloging certification via an asynchronous course on 
the Moodle platform (free), and I’ve been working on the Advanced Cataloging 
course for a while now. We also offer live webinars every month for other areas 
of the ILS and provide recordings of those webinars via our training YouTube 
channel. Our hope is to create Moodle (or another platform) courses for each 
training. These would act as more of a supplement to the live webinars since 
schedules vary so much between libraries.

I don’t think we need an official interest group but I think it would be useful

I am definitely interested in this, and I think it's good timing -- I think
a lot of us have changed the way we do training post-Pandemic.  We used to
do two-hour hands-on training sessions at our office, and these have been
replaced by one-hour remote sessions on Zoom.  Eliminating the travel time
and doing shorter sessions has helped us to reach a lot more people, staff
who were never going to be sent to NOBLE for the hands-on sessions.  I used
to do some online training sessions pre-Pandemic but they weren't popular
-- the big difference is that just about all staff now have had so much
experience with online sessions of all types and are comfortable and
equipped for them.

[Jgeneral] Report of J Wiki Meeting of 2023-09-14

2023-09-19 Thread 'robert therriault' via General
== Report of Meeting 2023-09-14 ==

Present: Ed Gottsman, Raul Miller, and Bob Therriault

Full transcripts of this meeting are now available on the its wiki page. 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Wiki/Report_of_Meeting_2023-09-14

1) Ed now has 7 beta users on the J Wiki Viewer. The current bugs are that Bob 
has had a small issue with the update app button and Bill Szuch has had a 
problem with his Windows operating session where it takes J down with 
interaction. Bob and Raul have noticed that there are some mouse actions that 
will leak through when the mouse is outside of the application window and 
hovers over the J wiki viewer. Ed feels that there will be no more features to 
be added and so is looking forward to the beta cycle. Bob said he could also 
approach others that had been suggested before and will send personal 
invitations once Ed had okayed the copy. Ed is still looking for beta testers 
and can be reached at edward DOT j DOT gottsman AT gmail DOT com . If you are 
interested, you can contact him and he will relay the details for you to run 
the viewer.

2) There was a brief discussion about involving the J Playground and the Primer 
and possibly putting them together to provide a good online resource for 
newcomers. It would have to be a "lighter" version of the Primer that might not 
have some of the GUI or Data Processing sessions. Raul mentioned that it would 
be nice to be able to save state and be able to come back to specific points to 
the Primer/lab. Bob wondered whether there would be ways to at least keep the 
verbs and nouns that had been created. Bob also mentioned that he would like to 
simplify the URL of the J Playground a bit in place of 
https://jsoftware.github.io/j-playground/bin/html2/ A permanent (hopefully 
shorter) URL would allow us to start including links of examples within NuVoc. 
Ed asked if the J Playground had a way to save state. Bob mentioned that you 
can save the script into the URL and then when it is loaded the contents from 
the URL are put into the edit window. Raul mentioned a tiny URL that he formed 
as an example https://tinyurl.com/rotatingF that incorporates shaders, 
javascript and two lines of J. 

3) Raul mentioned that there could be a lot of areas that we could expand into 
such as structural analysis. It would be interesting to see if it could be 
accepted as a general purpose language. Raul mentioned Cliff Reiter and Henry 
Rich as two who were involved with education. Bob mentioned Tom Allen as 
someone who has been doing a lot of work on advanced physics within the wiki 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/User:Tom_Allen . Bob asked whether there were 
opportunities to explore certain disciplines as content for the wiki. Raul felt 
that labs were better used for this purpose. The wiki might be better used as 
an educational tool. Ed mentioned that the challenges with going into specific 
disciplines is that there are already existing libraries of tools that may be 
further advanced. Raul wondered if there were an opportunity to use J as a more 
flexible tool that may allow you to approach novel problems. Ed felt that there 
may be a way to use J to teach about how to think about problems. Ed wondered 
about how J might have been used with Jupyter workbooks (editor's note: Tom 
McGuire has done some work in this area 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/User:Tom_McGuire/JJupyterNotebooks).   

3) Bob wondered about topics that should go into the Developer Category for the 
wiki. Raul felt that areas of interest like structural analysis would be good 
examples in specific topics that would bring in good people who would further 
explore and develop using J. Ed wondered what would make somebody reach for J 
rather than Python or Swift. One challenge is the language knowledge itself, 
but a second is that it is more difficult to create artifacts with J than it is 
with other languages because some of the infrastructure available. Ed mentioned 
Norman Drinkwater's page on developing a stand alone 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/J9_Standalone application and Ed still 
finds that difficult. Raul felt that except for the DLL's everything could be a 
single file comprising of the text files. There may be issues with unpacking 
zip files and security. Ed felt that the web becomes a more attractive 
distribution method. Raul pointed out that one of J's advantages is that it can 
be used across multiple platforms. Ed thought that the browser was a friendlier 
multi-platform. Raul brought up JHS which is the browser version of J 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/JHS . Ed felt that if he could develop 
with J the way that he does with JavaScript he would be happy. Where he could 
have J tags with the same power of JavaScript tags with controlling the DOM. 
Ed's question is whether there is debugging support in J for the J Playground. 
Ed says it may be a documentation issue with more explanation being provided in 
the wiki. Ed wo

Hi everyone,



Is there any interest from people who train library staff on Evergreen to get 
together to talk specifically about training?



I don’t think we need an official interest group but I think it would be useful 
to talk about what training people are doing, what’s working, what isn’t 
working, what resources people are create for their libraries, what software is 
being use to create resources, etc.



If there is interest I’d be happy to coordinate something for 2024.

Re: [Evergreen-general] Staff training

2023-09-19 Thread Jennifer Pringle via Evergreen-general
Hi Millissa,

I agree with everything that’s already been said.

Our libraries use a combination of age hold protection and specific circulation 
modifiers to restrict items as needed from being part of reciprocal borrowing.  
I think it helps libraries to know that they can keep parts of their collection 
from being included (especially around library of things collections).

We’ve found having documented policies helps both the libraries and us. (We 
have three different reciprocal borrowing zones which each operate a little 
differently so the policies help us keep track of how each should work.) One of 
our zones does patron driven ILL and the other two do staff driven.
http://docs.libraries.coop/policy/_bc_inter_library_connect_policies.html
http://docs.libraries.coop/policy/_spruce_inter_library_connect.html

One thing to highlight is the potential reduction in staff time.  For us, 
overall interlibrary loans done through Evergreen take less time than when 
staff do part in Evergreen and part in a 3rd party ILL system. Also, Evergreen 
tells staff exactly what to do (pull this item from the shelf, send the item 
here, etc.).

I have a webinar on ILL through Evergreen which I pull out and do for our 
libraries every couple of years.  I’m happy to share my script if you’re 
interested.

Libraries can also enable settings that bring items home when their patrons

Some people are more nervous about change than others. That's o.k. But the

We have found exactly the same thing that Terran describes.  Oftentimes, we’ve 
had larger, more well-funded libraries indicate that they’re afraid the smaller 
libraries will “clear their shelves” of new materials.  In reality, we’ve found 
that the smaller libraries contribute a ton because they have retained items 
that are often weeded at the larger libraries, filling out series and providing 
access to items that are out of publication.  Age protection is the thing that 
seems to alleviate the fear.  We have found that three month age protection 
generally works best except for those few outliers (think Harry Potter, 
Twilight, Spare…).

Re: [Evergreen-general] Staff training

2023-09-19 Thread Allison Midgley via Evergreen-general
This may seem obvious, but I suggest that you demonstrate how many more
resources they'll have access to by running side-by-side searches of their
current collection and the shared collection.

Is it possible to compare the library's current hold turn around time to
what it will be projected to be?

My suggestion is to put the emphasis on how much it will improve the patron
experience by being able to offer them so many more titles than they
currently have access to.

We have done resource sharing in Georgia since the beginning of PINES and
one of the things that we have found is that oftentimes the less
well-funded libraries that can't afford all of the new books end up being
really valuable for holds because they may have some of the older titles
that other branches have weeded.

Also, if you are using age protection, then staff can be sure that their
local patrons are still getting the brand new items first.

Re: [Evergreen-general] [External] Staff training

2023-09-19 Thread Murphy, Benjamin via Evergreen-general
We've found that resource sharing is one of the most popular aspects of our 
consortium. We've had some systems that expressed hesitancy out of concern for 
the extra work, their materials not being on the shelves, being damaged/lost, 
etc. When patrons suddenly have access to so many more materials, and they 
start flowing in the door that tends to change minds. We make sure to emphasize 
the 6 month age hold protection, aka if you paid for it, your patrons get first 
dibs. But, on the other side of that getting value for your money coin, if you 
have a 25 book set of Western novels and one goes missing, there's all the 
other libraries someone can get it from so you don't have to spend your 
collection development money buying another one. We notice that outgoing 
traffic has pretty good polarity with incoming traffic, so small libraries send 
and receive less stuff.

A few things that come to mind...

[Evergreen-general] Collaborative code review session: next Monday

2023-09-18 Thread Jane Sandberg via Evergreen-general
Hi Evergreen Community,

With the goal of creating an amazing Evergreen 3.12.0 release, you are
cordially invited to weekly collaborative code review sessions.  In these,
we'll meet for an hour to review recent pull requests
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bugs?field.searchtext=%3Alist=NEW%3Alist=CONFIRMED%3Alist=TRIAGED%3Alist=INPROGRESS_type%3Alist=PUBLIC_type%3Alist=PUBLICSECURITY_option=none=_reporter=_commenter==_subscriber==pullrequest_combinator=ANY_cve.used=_dupes.used=_dupes=on_me.used=_patch.used=_branches.used=_branches=on_no_branches.used=_no_branches=on_blueprints.used=_blueprints=on_no_blueprints.used=_no_blueprints=on=Search=-date_last_updated=0>,
read code, run automated tests, try patches out, provide feedback, merge
code that is ready... all the best stuff!

It'll be 11am Pacific / 2pm Eastern on Mondays, starting next Monday,
September 25.  We can meet at https://princeton.zoom.us/my/sandbergja.

All skill levels welcome!  You can join for as many or as few sessions as
you'd like.  If you have submitted a pull request that has been languishing
and needs some review, please bring that along too.  We're going for a fun,
positive, and social tone. :-D

This is not to take the place of any of the other great ways that
developers can get feedback on their work (e.g. bug squashing week, the new
developers working group, typical review process), just a fun supplement.

Hope to see you there,

  -Evergreen 3.12 release team

[BUG] tikz latex figures don't render properly in the html output. [9.6.6 (release_9.6.6 @ /usr/share/emacs/29.1/lisp/org/)]

2023-09-18 Thread General discussions about Org-mode.
Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

 https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.


#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{tikz}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (0,0) circle [radius=2cm];

This is the minimal document to reproduce this error. I do have some
additional org config as follows:

#+begin_src elisp

"\\["
  (setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'imagemagick)
#+end_src

I have already tried changing the `org-preview-latex-default-process`
file, but thats doesn't solve it.

Instead of the figure it draws the command in a latexy font.

Re: UMAI 0.4: Welcome on Ubuntu Mate 23.04

2023-09-17 Thread Linux for blind general discussion
Hello,

yes, pipx is the way recommended by Debian and its forks, including UM. 
However, in order for an application to be installable by pipx, it first 
needs to be packaged for it, what's unfortunately not the case with 
ocrdesktop.

I wonder whether it actually could be done, since ocrdesktop is not 
quite standalone Python app, it requires a few dependencies like 
tesseract that need to be installed via the distribution's package manager.


It's something that could be worth looking into in the future, though, 
right now I've chosen a  faster and simpler approach, where a venv 
environment is created and simply provided as a runtime.

It's not particularly slick, but I doubt a pipx installation would be 
either, this is the choice of dependency problems vs. containers, size 
vs. order.


Best regards


Rastislav

Re: UMAI 0.4: Welcome on Ubuntu Mate 23.04

2023-09-17 Thread Linux for blind general discussion
Hello,

it depends on the specific script part. Considering the individual 
operations as listed in the project's readme, 1 is UM specific, 2 could 
technically be adapted to work on other platforms, but I would need to 
implement a libatspi version check to determine which version of orca to 
install, plus the symlinking hack we're doing right now is Ubuntu 
specific I guess.

3 is system agnostic I think, 4 is UM specific and 5 should be also 
rather universal, at least on debian forks.


So, in theory yes, I believe it could be done, but there would 
inevitably need to be increased amount of platform branching in the 
code, making it harder for people to follow if they want to see what's 
happening to their system, also the development would become 
increasingly more difficult.


Personally I don't like shell scripts for more complex programs, I'm in 
for all sorts of simplicity so yeah, I understand it's awesome to use a 
simple shell script when you need to say perform an automated 
installation, execution or something of that kind, but if the script 
needs to do things like parse output from various commands, and people 
start doing all sorts of write-only awk magic, for me it's more 
reasonable to write the script in a full-fledged programming language, 
where the code would be readable and thoroughly checked by the compiler.


Though, one thing the shell scripts actually are doing very well is the 
permissions job. In case of umai, there are operations that need to be 
done as root, like updating and installing packages, and then, there are 
things you likely do not want to do as root, such as cloning a 
repository, installing Python dependencies into a virtual environment etc.


If I were to rewrite UMAI in a full-fledged programming language, this 
is something I would need to consider.


Best regards


Rastislav

pipx is available in some distros and once pipx gets installed one package
installed with pipx becomes available globally that is jrnl.  At least
that's what happened on debian bookworm.

development of linux phones for the visually impaired

2023-09-17 Thread Linux for blind general discussion

hi

My idea would be to install the sxmo user interface on pinephone and use 
it with orca or fenrir, sxmo is based on Sway andthe menus are built 
with dmenu or bemenu, which apparently doesn't work on orca, I was 
thinking about installing the i3 window manager for e.g. postmarketOS or 
mobian operating systems, would that combination work any better on orca 
with the pinephone keyboard add-on,I see great development potential in 
pinephone and other Linux phone solutions for the visually impaired 
community. The adaptability of the systems and their cheap 
price.Unfortunately, I'm not a software developer myself, but a power 
user interested in possibilities. Discussionsystems, experiences and 
tips, has anyone tried anything similar before.

Re: [Evergreen-general] [Evergreen-dev] Merging OpenSRF & Evergreen Into One Project

2023-09-15 Thread Jeff Davis via Evergreen-general
Unless there are other projects out there that are using OpenSRF (and I'm not 
aware of any), I think it makes sense to merge them. Having a single repository 
and install process would be a huge benefit, and I don't really see any 
downsides. The feeling at the dev meeting was that the merge should happen 
after OpenSRF migrates to Redis 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/opensrf/+bug/2017941), which seems like a 
reasonable timeline to me.

In other words: I love this plan! I'm excited to be a part of it! Let's do it!

Subject: [Evergreen-dev] Merging OpenSRF & Evergreen Into One Project

Hi All,

At today's IRC developer meeting, we discussed a proposal to merge OpenSRF and 
Evergreen into a single codebase / project.

The initial proposal: https://bugs.launchpad.net/opensrf/+bug/2032835
IRC logs from today's meeting: 
http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2023-09-12#i_533091

At the meeting, we reached a provisional thumbs-up on the concept.  This is a 
big change, though, and the discussion warrants more space, time, and coverage 
than an IRC meeting can accommodate, so I'm hoping to migrate the conversation 
to the list.

Thoughts, concerns, questions on the proposal?

At this point, we're still at the "should we do this?" stage, but I'm also 
happy to discuss specifics regarding potential planning and implementation.

Thanks!

We’ve done it… for bookclub purposes.

Nothing too fancy about it, but my understanding is that it has worked fine for 
us.  The item is a rugged, zippered book bag containing multiple copies, 
anywhere from 8-12 of them.  The bag has a sturdy laminated tag attached to it 
by a keyring, that has basic information on it (title, author, number of 
copies, etc) along with a single barcode and an RFID tag.  They all live on a 
designated shelf/location together, and have their own circ mod.  They check 
out for 8 weeks, much longer than other items.

I can’t remember how the individual copies are marked, would have to look as my 
last involvement was during planning/setup many years ago.  I’m thinking they 
may have barcodes, but all of them the same… no individual barcodes, the whole 
thing is considered a single item.  I do know if just one were turned in or 
found to be loose, staff can tell it was from a bookclub bag, and which one it 
belongs with.  Probably on the spine label.

The patron checking out the bag is considered responsible for the whole thing.  
Staff confirms all copies are present when checked back in.  Their size 
prevents them from going in the bookdrop.  (Theoretically, at least.)

That’s everything I remember about them off the top of my head, happy to chat 
(and refresh my own info on them for it) if it helps.

Hi all,

We’re looking to launch a new service in which we create kits for book groups 
(or book clubs, or any variation of the name) to reserve. Each kit will come 
with a bunch of copies of the same book along with discussion questions. The 
idea behind this service is to anticipate different groups’ needs and allow 
groups to plan out a season of reading by booking months in advance which of 
our kits they’d like made available.

We’re still hammering out the details, but I was curious to know if other 
Evergreen sites have programs like this. If so, I’d love to chat with you!

Re: [Evergreen-general] [EXTERNAL] RE: Does your library manage Book Group Kits via Evergreen?

2023-09-13 Thread Diane Disbro via Evergreen-general
I am watching this discussion. We have handled book club kits in a variety
of ways over the years. One way was putting the kits into the Booking
Module. Staff then created reservations for patrons. Didn't work because
staff couldn't remember to include a buffer period in the reservation and
there were issues with the Booking module. Improvements may have been made
to Booking since then.

Now, people contact the staff person in charge of the kits to reserve them
for specific dates.The kit is checked out by the moderator. Each individual
copy has a barcode and an RFID tag and is checked out either to the
moderator or the individual taking the book out of the library.

Hey Jeremy,

Thanks for those notes - are your patrons able to reserve kits in advance? 
We're curious to empower groups to reserve kits for specific date ranges.

We've done it... for bookclub purposes.

Nothing too fancy about it, but my understanding is that it has worked fine for 
us.  The item is a rugged, zippered book bag containing multiple copies, 
anywhere from 8-12 of them.  The bag has a sturdy laminated tag attached to it 
by a keyring, that has basic information on it (title, author, number of 
copies, etc) along with a single barcode and an RFID tag.  They all live on a 
designated shelf/location together, and have their own circ mod.  They check 
out for 8 weeks, much longer than other items.

I can't remember how the individual copies are marked, would have to look as my 
last involvement was during planning/setup many years ago.  I'm thinking they 
may have barcodes, but all of them the same... no individual barcodes, the 
whole thing is considered a single item.  I do know if just one were turned in 
or found to be loose, staff can tell it was from a bookclub bag, and which one 
it belongs with.  Probably on the spine label.

The patron checking out the bag is considered responsible for the whole thing.  
Staff confirms all copies are present when checked back in.  Their size 
prevents them from going in the bookdrop.  (Theoretically, at least.)

That's everything I remember about them off the top of my head, happy to chat 
(and refresh my own info on them for it) if it helps.

On a Fedora machine, running Orca, when using Thunderbird with two mail 
accounts, the program is started.
But I must wait several hours then refresh Orca with
f 2, orca --replace
and sometimes I can then do what needs to be done.
But sometimes, even doing that, I cannot move about in the program because of

Hi All,

Syndetics basically upgraded their discovery layer, but based on our OPAC
(been on Bootstrap for a while), we need to add a Javascript tag to our
bibliographic template in order to get the next upgrade.

Does anyone use Syndetics Unbound and where did you add your tag to?  I may
have some more follow-up questions; we haven't worked with a discovery
layer.

It is worth noting that the performance (execution time) of a 
build-system does not matter for profiling, so it is possible to achieve 
reproducible builds with PGO enabled. It is just hard.


See https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/499887
linked in 
https://github.com/bmwiedemann/theunreproduciblepackage/tree/master/pgo


In that gzip patch we even had to hide the name of the temporary file 
from gzip to not get variations from a 'tolower' call that would be 
optimized for different amounts of upper/lower-case letters.


Parallel builds and variations in ordering are also problematic, because 
some of the performance-counter-logic in gcc is not commutative, so 
running A and B calls produces different results from first calling B 
and then A.



With all that said, in openSUSE we also have a %do_profiling value to 
disable PGO for gcc, python and some others, because these profiling 
runs are too large to make deterministic.

[Jgeneral] Report of the J Wiki Meeting of September 07, 2023

2023-09-12 Thread 'robert therriault' via General
== Report of Meeting 2023-09-07 ==

Present: Art Anger, Ed Gottsman, Devon McCormick, and Bob Therriault

Full transcripts of this meeting are now available on the its wiki page. 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Wiki/Report_of_Meeting_2023-09-07

1) Ed did a quick overview of the J Wiki Browser for Devon and reviewed the 
feedback that he had received on the application, which was very positive. 
There was a discussion about the interface and the use of ticks in the sliders. 
The database is currently only being updated once a day and this was deemed 
sufficient at this time.

2) It was agreed that more beta testers were needed and it was suggested that 
Ed make a presentation at the next NYCJUG meeting and that Bob would promote 
the beta test opportunities on the next ArrayCast podcast. 

3) Further discussion on the role that categories could play in selecting areas 
of interest within the LiveSearch on the wiki browser. Possibilities were that 
certain high level categories might be selected to group the results of 
LiveSearch into common areas such as Math, Newcomers, Developers etc. Devon 
raised a concern about the absence of a feedback mechanism in the search tool, 
which Ed confirmed. Bob mentioned a comment on the YouTube demo regarding the 
reversal of the expand and shrink buttons. Ed pointed out that this could cause 
a conflict when the cursor hovers over the browser window, causing it to expand 
if it had just been shrunk. 

3) Bob reviewed the work that he had done on the J Primer with regard to 
improved navigation and bringing he content up to date. Content changes 
required included the new manner of creating GUI forms in JQt, a change to the 
file structure for loading files in newer versions of J, and verbs such as nub 
count that had not been included in the J libraries since 2007. Bob had checked 
the results of each step of the Primer using J9.4 in the JQt IDE. Bob will 
present the new version of the J Primer during the NYCJUG meeting in the 
Beginner's Regatta section. Bob also said that he would take a look at 
including the direct definition {{...}} in a future version of the Primer

4) There was a discussion about integrating J into web pages to increase its 
utility. Bob mentioned JHS as a form that does this, but would require the J 
engine to be downloaded. Although, this week Eric had updated the methods of 
putting a J server on an AWS instance so that it could serve as a remote 
personal J server. https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/System/Installation/Cloud 
There was further discussion about including a version of the Primer on the J 
Playground to allow easier access to newcomers. 

For access to previous meeting reports 
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Wiki_Development

If you would like to participate in the development of the J wiki please 
contact us on the general forum and we will get you an invitation to the next J 
wiki meeting held on Thursdays at 23:00 (UTC) Next meeting is September 14th, 
2023.

[Evergreen-general] Does your library manage Book Group Kits via Evergreen?

Hi all,

We're looking to launch a new service in which we create kits for book groups 
(or book clubs, or any variation of the name) to reserve. Each kit will come 
with a bunch of copies of the same book along with discussion questions. The 
idea behind this service is to anticipate different groups' needs and allow 
groups to plan out a season of reading by booking months in advance which of 
our kits they'd like made available.

We're still hammering out the details, but I was curious to know if other

[Evergreen-general] Merging OpenSRF & Evergreen Into One Project

2023-09-12 Thread Bill Erickson via Evergreen-general
Hi All,

At today's IRC developer meeting, we discussed a proposal to merge OpenSRF
and Evergreen into a single codebase / project.

The initial proposal: https://bugs.launchpad.net/opensrf/+bug/2032835
IRC logs from today's meeting:
http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2023-09-12#i_533091

At the meeting, we reached a provisional thumbs-up on the concept.  This is
a big change, though, and the discussion warrants more space, time, and
coverage than an IRC meeting can accommodate, so I'm hoping to migrate the
conversation to the list.

Thoughts, concerns, questions on the proposal?

At this point, we're still at the "should we do this?" stage, but I'm also
happy to discuss specifics regarding potential planning and
implementation.

Thanks!
