  • Posting broken in the top story on Slashdot

    You can't post any comments in the current top story on Slashdot (NASA's Space Plans...) and posting on the story about CA traffic light cameras is or was misdirected to the comment area for another story about some Microsoft developer tool. What the heck is going on!?!

  • Tagging completely broken in Safari

    The disclosure triangle doesn't even work with the following errors: TypeError: Result of expression 'e.attr("id")' [undefined] is not an object. c.fsdn.com/sd/all-minified.js?T_2_5_0_270:20 This had been broken for a long time on the main page, but it always worked on the individual pages before. As of about a week ago, the individual pages fail with the same error.

  • Missing the -k flag

    The -k flag to nc (in recent versions) causes nc to continue listening after the client connects. In practice, this nc behavior is required for writing any generally useful daemon, as two clients trying to connect at once is not at all rare. When multiple clients connect, nc should service the first connection, then service the next connection as soon as the first connection closes, and so on.

  • Comment: NUMEROUS build problems (w/ fixes)

    Doesn't seem to be usable. When I try to import clips, I get this: Exception raised in /Users/dg/Downloads/hyperengine/Projects/HAVOSX/../../Source/Arme/TArmeQTFileHandler.cpp at line 399 : Unknown exception The PowerPC prebuilt binary crashes on launch. I suspect this would require a LOT of work to function at all in 10.5.

  • NUMEROUS build problems (w/ fixes)

    This thing won't even build anymore without several dozen minor fixes. There must be thirty different places where the capitalization of "QuickTime/QuickTime.h" is wrong in this project. Sometimes it is written as "Quicktime/Quicktime.h", one time it was "Quicktime/quicktime.h", etc. There's also one case of mis-capitalization of "IOKit/IOKitLib.h". There are also two capitalization mi.

  • srm should respect SIGINFO

    Most UNIX/Linux utilities that do large amounts of work catch the SIGINFO signal and display status information to indicate how much progress they have made. The srm utility should do the same.

  • Can't create output files with spaces in name

    If I tell Hugin to stitch together a pano and specify a name with spaces in it, the resulting output filename is truncated from the first space onwards, e.g. "My Trip to Washington" generates a file called "My.tif". This is probably caused by failure to properly quote the command-line argument in question in a shell-safe fashion.

  • Crashes when importing RAW files

    If you select "All files", then attempt to add a Camera RAW file, HugIn crashes reliably. Crash log attached.
