G’MIC - GREYC’s Magic Image Converter
[125015230020] |G’MIC stands for GREYC’s Magic Image Converter.
[125015230030] |This project aims to :
[125015230040] |* Define a minimal but powerful script language (G’MIC) dedicated to the design of image processing pipelines.
[125015230050] |* Provide an interpreter of this language (in C++), distributed as an open-source module/library embeddable in third-party applications.
[125015230060] |* Propose two binary tools embedding this interpreter :
[125015230070] |o The command-line executable gmic to use the G’MIC framework from a shell.
[125015230080] |o The interactive plug-in gmic_gimp to bring G’MIC capabilities to the image retouching software GIMP.
[125015230090] |G’MIC is focused on the design of complex pipelines for converting, manipulating, filtering and visualizing generic 1d/2d/3d multi-spectral image datasets.
[125015230100] |Of course, it is able to manage color images, but also more complex data as image sequences or 3d volumetric datasets.
[125015230110] |G’MIC is an open framework : it is possible to extend the proposed default language with custom G’MIC-written commands, defining thus new image filters or effects.
[125015230120] |By the way, it already contains a substantial set of pre-defined image processing algorithms.
[125015230130] |G’MIC has been designed with portability in mind and runs on different platforms (Windows, Unix, MacOSX).
[125015230140] |It is distributed under the CeCILL license (GPL-compatible).
[125015230150] |It has been developed in the Image Team of the GREYC laboratory, in Caen/France, by permanent researchers working in the field of image processing on a daily basis.
[125015230160] |Main features
[125015230170] |G’MIC designs a complete image processing framework, and thus can manage image data as any other image-related tool.
[125015230180] |Anyway, it has specific features that make it a bit particular :
[125015230190] |* It internally works with lists of images.
[125015230200] |Image manipulations and interactions can be done either grouped or focused on specific items.
[125015230210] |* It can process a wide variety of image types, including multi-spectral (arbitray number of channels) and 3d volumetric images as well as image sequences, or 3d objects.
[125015230220] |Images with different pixel types are supported, allowing to process flawlessly images with 8bits or 16bits integers per channel, as well as float-valued datasets.
[125015230230] |* It provides small but efficient viewing modules dedicated to the exploration/visualization of 2d/3d multi-spectral images, 3d objects (elevation map, isocurves, isosurfaces,…), or 1d graph plots.
[125015230240] |* It proposes commands to handle custom interactive windows where user events can be managed easily.
[125015230250] |* It is highly extensible through the use of custom command files which add new functions, understood by the language interpreter.
[125015230260] |* It can be used inside GIMP, allowing end-users to integrate any G’MIC-based pipeline directly in a nice GUI, without coding efforts.
[125015230270] |* It is based on the latest development versions of the CImg Library, a well established C++ template image processing toolkit, developed by the same development team.

[125015450030] |Unlike Rhythmbox, Banshee or itunes, Xnoise uses a tracklist centric design.
[125015450040] |The tracklist is a list of video or music tracks that are played one by one without being removed (right side of window).
[125015450050] |This gives you the possibility to queue any track in any order, regardless if they are on the same album.
[125015450060] |Tracks or groups of tracks can be reordered at any time via drag and drop.
[125015450070] |The media browser (left side of the window) contains all available media in a hierarchical tree structure of the available metadata.
[125015450080] |It is easy to find a single track, artist or album by using this tree structure or by just entering a search term.
[125015450090] |From the media browser, single or multiple tracks, streams, albums, artists or videos can be dragged into the tracklist to every position.
[125015450100] |Within the playing track, it’s possible to jump to any position by clicking the position bar or by scrolling on it.
[125015450110] |Xnoise can play every kind of audio/video data that gstreamer can handle.
[125015450120] |There are plugins available.
[125015450130] |By now there are, e.g. a plugin that downloads cover images from lastFm or one that shows notifications, one that monitores file changes in your local media directory, a mpris dbus interface …

[125015530040] |Amarok is based on the powerful Qt4 / KDE4 Platform and nicely integrates with KDE desktop.
[125015530050] |Much work has been invested into integrating Amarok 2 with various Web services:

[125015530220] |What is new in amarok 2.4
[125015530230] |This release brings significant performance, usability, and stability improvements: Most of the bugs involving the context pane have been squished, a completely rewritten collection scanner is presented (hint: it’s the thing that reads your music files’ tags) -- Amarok now has the ability to write your statistics and covers directly to the audio files to keep the information across different devices and should detect compilations a lot better.
[125015530240] |At long last, we also have an option to hide the menu bar again.
[125015530250] |Speaking of tags, there’s a new feature to work along with the rewritten collection scanner: Integration with the MusicBrainz music library to update your songs with accurate information.
[125015530260] |Having a well organized collection is easier than ever, now that you can select what you want tagged and do it with two clicks.
[125015530270] |We unfortunately had to remove the Playdar collection again that we added in beta 1.
[125015530280] |We hope to be able to add it back again as soon as we made a few changes to it.
[125015530290] |Other notable features that have been added in this release, include:
[125015530300] |* The ability to use iPod Touch 3G and possibly newer devices.
[125015530310] |* Transcoding: Now Amarok allows you to convert tracks from one file format to another when copying from the file browser to the local collection.
[125015530320] |We will expand this to media devices in future releases.
[125015530330] |* A new applet that fetches guitar and bass tab information for all your string instrument needs.
[125015530340] |* OPML export for Podcast subscriptions.
[125015530350] |* A map and calendar view for the upcoming events applet
[125015530360] |* Support for UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) collections, you can now listen to music from UPnP servers on the local network.
[125015530370] |Along with many more features, improvements and innumerable bug fixes.

[125015550140] |Thousand and one bug fixes, that’s what this release turned out to be.
[125015550150] |A long run of tweaks in various places rather than short and explosive.
[125015550160] |Kudos to Pawe? for his great work, notably with bookmark import and export, including Netscape HTML import, and a new infobar prompting to install userscripts and -styles if the User Addons extension is activated.
[125015550170] |A rather big move is Launchpad as the new bug tracker.
[125015550180] |I have tested it and am convinced of the superiour usability over FlySpray and Bugzilla.
[125015550190] |And this addresses the frequently raised concern of using a unique bug tracker, so it should be easier to report bugs with an existing account and a familiar interface.
[125015550200] |The old bug tracker still exists and will remain in place for a while, but new bugs should be reported at Launchpad.
[125015550210] |The code repository and translations remain with Xfce and Midori is still fully usable and supported on it, and dozens of other platforms.
[125015550220] |Kudos to Dan and Michael for moving over a huge number of bug reports.
[125015550230] |The new default search engine is DuckDuckGo, https://www.duckduckgo.com a slick and powerful engine with a string focus on data privacy and no logging whatsoever.
[125015550240] |Midori uses the SSL version out of the box.This change is not automatic for existing configurations, and Google as well as Yahoo remain available from the menu and as tokens ‘g’ and ‘y’ respectively.
[125015550250] |Problems with ‘,’ and ‘.’ for link search and inline search with Russian keyboard layouts have been fixed.
[125015550260] |Options for languages and panel layout have been simplified.
[125015550270] |Netscape plugins no longer show up in the Extensions panel due to repeated confusion with users.
[125015550280] |URIs keep spaces encoded as %20 to allow copying to other applications.
[125015550290] |And context menu-related problems have been fixed.

[125015630020] |What Is Docky?
[125015630030] |Docky is an advanced shortcut bar that sits at the bottom, top, and/or sides of your screen.
[125015630040] |It provides easy access to some of the files, folders, and applications on your computer, displays which applications are currently running, holds windows in their minimized state, and more.
[125015630050] |To install Docky from a terminal, use the commands below
[125015630060] |sudo add-apt-repository ppa:docky-core/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install docky
[125015630070] |Docky will be added under
Accessories
in the
Applications
menu.
[125015630080] |When you first launch Docky you will get a pretty simple dock on the bottom of your screen.
[125015630090] |You can drag and drop your application icons to rearrange them, and drag applications from the applications menu to Docky to add them.
[125015630100] |Pull an icon from Docky out and it will disappear in a puff of smoke.
[125015630110] |Click on the blue Docky logo to open the configuration window.
