| 11:10 | | * AnnoDomini ponders how to make every image in a directory into the negative of the original. |
| 11:10 | < Serah> | Photoshop can do it with batch actions, IIRC. |
| 11:10 | < Serah> | Otherwise you can do it with PHP. |
| 11:11 | < Serah> | Probably many other ways too, but I never experimented with that. |
| 11:11 | < Serah> | I suppose Mac's automator can do it too. |
| 11:11 | < Serah> | But that's not really helpful. |

| 11:26 | < TheWatcher> | AD: If you have ImageMagick installed: ls -1 | xargs -i -n 1 convert '{}' -negate '{}' |
| 11:27 | < TheWatcher> | (if you have anything other than images in there, you might want to replace the ls -1 with `find . -iname '*.jpg'` or the like |
| 11:28 | < Namegduf> | ls | grep is the lazy man's find. |
| 11:28 | < TheWatcher> | and in that case, if you just want that directory and not any subdirectories, find . -maxdepth 1 -iname '*.jpg') |
| 11:28 | < Namegduf> | It's always a little neat to realise the things you can do in a single command or a chain of a few with the typical tools of a Linux system. |
| 11:29 | < TheWatcher> | (also, if you have images with spaces, you probably want to use `find . -maxdepth 1 -iname '*.jpg' -print0 | xargs -0 -i -n 1 convert '{}' -negate '{}'` to avoid confusions |
| 11:29 | < TheWatcher> | ) |
| 11:29 | < TheWatcher> | *spaces in the name |
| 11:31 | < TheWatcher> | Namegduf: indeed. It's one of the reasons I practically can't function on windows without cygwin installed >.> |

| 18:48 | <@AnnoDomini> | How do I grep every file within a directory for certain text string? |
| 18:50 | <@AnnoDomini> | Specifically, I want to display a list of files containing a certain phrase. |
| 18:52 | <@AnnoDomini> | Nevermind, worked it out. |
| 18:55 | <@Vornicus-Latens> | grep "stuff" * |
| 18:55 | <@Derakon> | grep -l string |
| 18:55 | <@AnnoDomini> | grep 'stuff' ./* |
| 18:55 | <@Derakon> | -l will list files that match instead of showing the match itself. |
| 18:56 | <@AnnoDomini> | What I did brings up both. |
| 18:56 | <@Derakon> | Sure, but you asked for a list of files, not a list of files plus the matches. :) |
| 18:56 | <@Derakon> | Also, the ./ is unnecessary. |
| 18:57 | <@AnnoDomini> | Can I have a list of files with matches and their line numbers within the files? |
| 18:57 | <@Derakon> | -n |
| 18:58 | <@Derakon> | "man grep" is your friend. |
| 18:58 | <@AnnoDomini> | A very wordy friend. |
| 18:59 | < Namegduf> | If your default paging thing is the same as here |
| 18:59 | < Namegduf> | Use /<search term> after "man grep" |
| 18:59 | <@Derakon> | A very wordy friend that can be itself searched. |
| 18:59 | < Namegduf> | It's a valid thing to ask about, knowing where more fun trick with grep can be found is useful too, though, because there's a lot it can do. |
| 19:00 | | * Namegduf needs to learn to use awk for more than stripping out parts of lines. Maybe. |

| 19:10 | <@AnnoDomini> | Argh. This is annoying. I'm trying to modify the colours in a phpbb3 style, and I can't find where the damn main table background colour is located. |
| 19:10 | <@AnnoDomini> | I seem to have changed everything. |
| 19:11 | <@AnnoDomini> | It's not part of the stylesheet, the resulting page has a plain old HTML property specifying bgcolor, overriding styles. |
| 19:11 | <@AnnoDomini> | The only two other mentions of background colours in the template files I found and corrected. |
| 19:21 | < celticminstrel> | For prosilver-derived, try colours.css |
| 19:21 | < celticminstrel> | Also look out for background-image. |
| 19:22 | < celticminstrel> | That is, maybe there's a background image overriding your background colour. |
| 19:26 | <@AnnoDomini> | It's not prosilver-derived. I've opened the source of the end-page, and it states near the top, "<table bgcolor="#FFFFFF"". I'm trying to make it #000000. |
| 19:33 | < gnolam> | I can't remember off-hand the specificity table (i.e. if you /can/ override it then or not), but try marking the CSS as important. |
| 19:34 | <@AnnoDomini> | How? |
| 19:41 | | PinkFreud [WhyNot@NetworkAdministrator.Nightstar.Net] has quit [Connection closed] |
| 19:45 | < TheWatcher> | Wait, are you editing the template direct on the filesystem, or through the ACP? |
| 19:45 | <@AnnoDomini> | Filesystem. |
| 19:45 | < TheWatcher> | Because if you're editing on the filesystem, you need to flush the cache |
| 19:45 | < TheWatcher> | otherwise changes there get ignored |
| 19:46 | <@AnnoDomini> | I'm guessing refreshing isn't what I need. |
| 19:47 | < TheWatcher> | No - you need to either hit "Purge Cache" on the ACP index page, or hit Refresh on the appropriate entry in the styles -> templates page in the ACP |
| 19:48 | < celticminstrel> | If you're making a lot of changes, it's probably better to turn on the setting to automatically flush the cache when the file changes. |
| 19:48 | < celticminstrel> | What happens if you take out the bgcolor="#FFFFFF" ? |
| 19:49 | <@AnnoDomini> | Wait, while I try to refresh. The server is being slow. |
| 19:52 | <@AnnoDomini> | Purging worked. |
| 19:54 | < celticminstrel> | Yay! |
| 20:27 | < gnolam> | Still. CSS works on the principle of highest specificity: the CSS rule that's the most specific is the one that gets applied. |
| 20:28 | < gnolam> | If two rules are equally specific, the last one applies. |
| 20:30 | < gnolam> | And if you can't raise the specificity enough through normal means (e.g. li table { foo: bar; } instead of table { foo: bar; }) there's an !important directive. |
| 20:30 | < Namegduf> | I always read that as "not important" |
| 20:30 | < Namegduf> | Which is annoying. |
| 20:31 | < gnolam> | It should totally have been a Spanish upside-down exclamation mark. |
| 20:31 | < Namegduf> | XD |
| 20:31 | < Namegduf> | They should have put the exclamation mark at the other end. |
| 20:31 | < Namegduf> | important! |
| 20:32 | < celticminstrel> | He wasn't using CSS there, though... |
| 20:32 | < gnolam> | p { margin-left: 0px; ¡Caramba! } |
| 20:33 | < celticminstrel> | Except if goes before the semicolon, doesn't it? |
| 20:33 | < Namegduf> | Anyone know how to tell screen to default to using UTF-8 for new attached sessions? |
| 20:33 | < Namegduf> | It was okay. |
| 20:33 | < Namegduf> | Then I broke it. |
| 20:33 | < Namegduf> | At the same time I broke other stuff about it. |
| 20:33 | < Namegduf> | I think I must have fed it binary garbage or something by accident. |
| 20:34 | < Namegduf> | "^A :utf8 on on" per session fixes it |
| 20:40 | <@Derakon> | 'stty sane' is my go-to method for fixing borked terminals. |
| 20:40 | <@Derakon> | Might work for screen. |
