  • milton

    An infinite-canvas paint program (by serge-rgb)

    Project mention: Lorien – Infinite canvas drawing/whiteboarding app | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-06-12

    I have used Milton for this for about a year or so. One thing I really like about Milton is the Grid tool, to create a rows and columns. It’s great for sketching out ideas or calculations when learning.

    I think the Linux code for Milton had one or two issues when compiling on a modern Arch system, but I have a simple fix laying around if anybody else has trouble.

    I should try Lorien though.

    Project mention: A500 mini - your thoughts on it | reddit.com/r/amiga | 2022-09-26

    If you edit/change the contents of the whdload_db.xml file inside the boot-data.zip then you can change the per-game settings. I don't know what all the possible settings are but you should be able to make it boot to an Amiga4000-like config (or at least with a faster CPU). Some more details about this at https://github.com/BlitterStudio/amiberry/wiki/WHDLoad-Auto-booting

    Project mention: My collection of AppImage packages | reddit.com/r/AppImage | 2022-09-28

    there are several developers that have bundled wine as an AppImage, my favourite one is this , about GZDoom I've just downloaded the tar package and it seems to be an Electron based app, so it should not difficult to bundle it (see my Spotify for example), and supermariowar should be easier too.

    Project mention: Animate terminal output? | reddit.com/r/AskProgramming | 2022-03-06

    I'd look towards using SDL2, using a wrapper library can make this trivial.
