- Import Ricoh GX100 RAW files into Apple’s Aperture in MacOS 10.5 Leopard
Here’s a little hack to enable you to use Ricoh GX100 RAW files in Apple’s Aperture. Make a backup of the following file: /System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle/Contents/Resources/Raw.plist Find the key for the Leica D-LUX 3 (line 3316 in MacOS 10.5.1): 3316: <key>Leica D-LUX 3</key> <string>Panasonic DMC-LX2</string> <!-- 10.4.10 --> Then insert the following line before the line showing the Leica D-LUX 3: 3316: <key>RICOH [...]

From Britol City Council’s PublicAccess for Planning page: Please note that the documents within PublicAccess can only be accessed by using Internet Explorer. This is due to a limitation within the system which has been raised with the suppliers. Not good enough. Here’s form I knocked-up in about 2 minutes that gives users [...]
Wed, 01 Aug 2007 09:43:20 +0000 - ActionScript trim function
ActionScript 2.0 doesn’t have a trim function to strip whitespace from the start and end of a string. Here’s a simple function I wrote because I couldn’t find a satisfactory example on Google! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 function trim(str:String):String { var stripCharCodes = { code_9 : true, // tab [...]

If you’ve ever needed to get calculate a mode value in php, you’ll notice that there isn’t a native function to do so. I couldn’t get the function in Pear’s Math_Statistics to work with non-numeric values, so here’s a function that does. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 <?php /** * Calculates the frequently occuring value(s) in an array. * * @param array [...]

mankners…, originally uploaded by i y e r s. My thoughts precisely. It’s depressing how this stuff has become so popular when there’s such a variety of decent local cider producers within a 25 mile radius of Bristol. Given the food-miles accumulated importing apples from the UK, France and the Netherlands to Ireland and shipping them back [...]

Remove the phone cruft; add some sensible storage for a media player, and I’ll buy one!

Everyone seems to be up to it at the moment, so here’s what I’d like to see announced at Macworld Expo this year… A refund to anyone that has ever paid money for .mac That’s all.

Today is the “Day of Slav Letters in Bulgaria”. I’m not Bulgarian, and have never been there, and definitely can’t spell your name in Bulgarian for a school project. I just like the idea of holding a national holiday to celebrate letter-forms and their creators, like Korean Alphabet Day.
Wed, 24 May 2006 10:47:40 +0000 - Preview Markdown Documents in BBEdit
A quickie: here’s a way of directly previewing Markdown documents in the BBEdit preview window using PHP. (Inspired by this Python method that does the same thing). Make a template file (you’ll probably want to add some styles to this). ~/Sites/markdown-preview/template.html 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; [...]

I’m down to less than 200 feeds in NetNewsWire now after culling a few dinosaurs and thinning-out a few sorry specimens. I’ve just unsubscribed from the increasingly inane Lifehacker (cf. Finding-Your-Car and Coffee tips) after reading this little gem: You’re busy. Your life is a hectic mess. How do you find time to get some exercise? Here [...]
