Note

Finally got around to setting up a custom domain, not hard but quite involved and required some serious concentration and patience, due to DNS record delays.

I am apt to forget to post in my blog as I am often to distracted by the real world and so it slips my mind. So a note to self (like it will make a difference) post something, anything!

I feel like I should post something but I really don’t feel like. I don’t feel I have anything positive to post about in terms of CG or anything else at the moment. So this is in lieu of a post proper, a little note.

The contents of the post were still called Description now they are Contents to match the dialog.

The notes Contents were still is the capitalize function, commented out now. So This Should be Working 😀

So it isn’t just Mac that is throwing up an error, also happening one linux. now i have managed to check the code on Debian it is clear something is wrong with the installation or calls in both. it seems to be related to QApplication, but i can’t be arsed to track it down any further. time for a rewrite using QWidget only.

This will allow me to keep the desktop post shorcut while editing and renaming the python applications. A special case will be needed on windows but the mac and linux versions should work the same…

Create a directory if it doesn’t exist: import os.path isdir = os.path.isdir(postpath) if not isdir: os.mkdir(postpath)

You can pause the execution of a shell script using read like this: read -t 5 -p "press any key to resume, will exit in 5 sec ..." The -t is the time in seconds and the -p is the pause followed by a message.

I didn’t like the list style of the original notes page so removed the list.html from the theme/layouts/notes directory. This is now the default theme list as used in tags etc.
