| kthakore | moritz_: who should I talk to? | 15:07 | |
| moritz_ | kthakore: pronik | 15:29 | |
| kthakore | moritz_: ... | 15:30 | |
| moritz_ | well, not here atm | ||
| happens | |||
| kthakore | yeah | ||
| I will ust leave the problem up | |||
| How do I get LaTeX to find fonts properly? I have these fonts in /usr/share/fonts and ~/.fonts . But I still get paste.scsys.co.uk/49131 | |||

| kthakore | hi pronik` | 17:46 | |
| pronik` | kthakore: hi | ||
|
17:46
pronik` is now known as pronik
|
|||
| pronik | looking at your paste right now ;) | 17:47 | |
| kthakore | pronik: I figured it out | ||
| perl6book needs a fix for it too | |||
| pronik: I need to parse fc-list output and use the right font name | |||
| pronik | you got a patch? | 17:48 | |
| kthakore | btw I am using the perl6book's build system to make the SDL_Manual book. github.com/kthakore/SDL_Manual and sdlperl.ath.cx/releases/SDL_Manual | 17:49 | |
| pronik: in a bit | |||
| pronik: I will push it | |||
| pronik: is that ok if I use the build system? | |||
| it is for a TPF grant | |||
| pronik | I don't have any problem with that, you could ask lucs too, since he contributed quite a bit too | ||
| kthakore | ok | ||
| lucs: hi | |||
| pronik: pushing the fix as soon as I can find the adobe fonts | 17:50 | ||
| pronik | maybe we should try to make a separate package for the build system | ||
| I could upload those for you | |||
| kthakore | that would be nice | ||
| pronik: the fonts? | |||
| pronik | yes | ||
| mfollett | Do return types via "is of" not work yet in Rakudo? I was going to add that to the book but my examples don't work. | ||
| pronik | kthakore: ok, in a could of minutes | 17:51 | |
| kthakore | pronik: sure that would be nice | ||
| I need to get the font names from font-config | |||
| so I can make this work nicely for perl6book too | 17:52 | ||
| pronik | what's the actual problem with the fonts? | ||
| kthakore | it is the names | 17:54 | |
| you have to use what fc-list says | |||
| it says differing things depends on the system | |||
| debian allows you to have the exact file name | |||
| pronik | ah, I get it, nice one | 17:55 | |
| kthakore | but ubuntu does not | ||
| pronik | did you get it working? | ||
| kthakore | for SDL_Manual | ||
| I am readign the README for perl6book | |||
| and I need to make a script to read the fc-list output | |||
| and inject it into book.sty | 17:56 | ||
| but how to do that? | |||
| pronik | probably via templating | ||
| book.sty is processed by Template toolkit while compiling | |||
| so that could be a way | |||
| kthakore | I was just gonna read the book.sty file and replace ROMANS with the name | 17:57 | |
| :p | |||
| maybe this is better | |||
| which step in the make file does this? | |||
| pronik | it's in book-to-latex | 17:59 | |
| kthakore | ok | ||
| thanks dude | |||
| pronik | btw, I wanted to "borrow" the epub generation part from modern perl book, so we'd have that a bit later | ||
| np | |||
| kthakore | hopefully it helps you guys | ||
| pronik thinks we should factor the whole book generation stuff out of the actual project | 18:00 | ||
| kthakore | pronik: yes please | ||
| pronik | it should definitely, even though we have quite tight dependencies already, like texlive 2009 | ||
| kthakore: gotta first figure out a good way to do this, i.e. flexible enough | |||
| kthakore | pronik: where is the github again? | 18:01 | |
| I forgot | |||
| mortiz or p6book? | |||
| pronik | github.com/perl6/book | ||
| I'm not particularly fond of the centralized development, but I'm not the one to decide this stuff | 18:02 | ||
| kthakore: rapidshare.com/files/414894395/adobe.tar.bz2 | 18:03 | ||
| kthakore | yay! | 18:04 | |
| thanks | |||
| crap ... | |||
| I only have shell access to my home computer | |||
| :( | |||
| pronik | what's the problem then, shell is good enough, isn't it? | 18:07 | |
| kthakore | pronik: no I mean ... I can't see the image file of rapidshare to get files | ||
| pronik | ah, sorry, got it, javascript with rapidshare | ||
| kthakore | yeah | ||
| pronik | ok, I'll get you another link | ||
| rassie.org/adobe.tar.bz2 | 18:08 | ||
| kthakore | hmmm ... font-config cant find this | 18:10 | |
| :( | |||
| should I run something to rebuild the cache? | |||
| pronik | normally, no | ||
| you should have the files directly under ~/.fonts | 18:11 | ||
| without the adobe subdir I created in the archive | |||
| kthakore | I know | ||
| I did tha | |||
| t | |||
| I did that | |||
| man my ubuntu sucks | 18:12 | ||
| guess my hack is no use for .otf fonts | |||
| :\\ | |||
| ok I am runnign this fc-cache -f -v | |||
| \\o/ | 18:13 | ||
| pronik | works? | ||
| kthakore | the hack is one line now | ||
| for perl6 | |||
| :D | |||
| pronik | I wonder why you needed to refresh the cache | ||
| kthakore | fc-cache -f -v | ||
| pronik | reminds me of a three-line gentoo installation ;) | ||
| kthakore | should I add it? | 18:14 | |
| it helps me a lot | |||
| it works on my debian and other ubuntu too now | |||
| pronik: what do you think? | 18:15 | ||
| pronik | to the README? Yeah | ||
| kthakore | not to the make ? | ||
| Makefile ? | |||
| pronik | there is no reason to refresh the cache every time the book compiles | 18:16 | |
| it's more like an installation step | |||
| i.e. -> README | |||
| kthakore | okie | 18:17 | |
| DONE | |||
| pronik: hope this helps other people too | |||
| pronik | nice, thanks | ||
| kthakore | moritz_: done :D | ||
| pronik: how do you like the SDL_Manual? | |||
| pronik: I use the Liberation fonts. All freedom and what not :D | 18:18 | ||
| pronik: sdlperl.ath.cx/releases/SDL_Manual.pdf | |||
| pronik | I evaluated the liberation fonts at one point and didn't really like them | 18:19 | |
| kthakore | oh | ||
| but isn't adobe's font licensed? | |||
| pronik | yes, but free to use as far as I know | ||
| which is ok, since good free-to-use fonts are very rare | 18:20 | ||
| and I remember some troubles with perl6 "special" french quotes | |||
| liberation serif is nice actually, mono too | |||
| but liberation sans is a disaster | |||
| dalek | ok: 7af1026 | kthakore++ | README: added cache trick to readme |
18:21 | |
| kthakore | pronik: french quotes? | 18:23 | |
| PerlJam | There was nothing special about them, they were ordinary french quotes | 18:27 | |
| kthakore | hi PerlJam | 18:28 | |
| PerlJam | guillemets. « » | ||
| kthakore | ah ok | ||
| pronik: man I spent 6 hours on this | |||
| and all I had to do was fc-cache -f -v ... | |||
| as root | |||
| kthakore feels super productive today :p | 18:29 | ||
| PerlJam | kthakore: You've made a good start on the book. Keep at it! :) | ||
| kthakore | PerlJam: will do :D | 18:30 | |
| now to do drawing :D | |||
| PerlJam realizes that "the book" might be a tad ambiguous in here | |||
| :) | |||
| pronik | PerlJam: it's got a cover and a couple of pages = book | 18:31 | |
| kthakore | pronik: it has a picture too! | ||
| : | |||
| PerlJam | except I'm not talking about the perl 6 book. | ||
| kthakore | pronik: he is talking about my silly SDL_Manual | ||
| pronik | kthakore: I know | 18:32 | |
| it's a got a cover and 4+ pages too | |||
| kthakore | yay! | ||
| 4 pages more then I ever wrote :p | 18:33 | ||
| well does code and docs count? | |||
