VCS 1.13 released

An updated version of vcs is available to download. Shame on me for the long wait since this has been pretty much completed for months. The biggest change this time is the "blank frame avoidance" feature, with which (mostly) blank frames will not be captured, if possible, this is one of the cool features found ...

Features to be removed from VCS

There's some features in vcs I plan to remove to ease working on it's absurdly big code. I haven't seen them used in the wild except long ago, plus in my samples and manuals by others. I'm calling for your opinion, however, to know for sure if I should actually remove them or not. Use ...

nautilus-folow-symlink 1.2 released

I've just published an updated nautilus-follow-symlink, in case anyone is actually using it I've finally tested this version against both GNOME 2 and GNOME 3, and I'm also providing a variant to build against MATE's Caja (MATE is a fork of GNOME 2, and Caja its fork of Nautilus). I've also written a version for ...

VCS 1.12.3 released

I haven't updated VCS in a while and somehow managed to keep this update ready but unreleased for months, so today I decided it was about time to get rid of it and be free to work on 1.13 This is a minor update with a couple bugfixes, but most importantly, it marks the switch ...

Relevation 1.1 released

A small update for Relevation. It will now handle wrong passwords a bit more gracefully and it's also easier to use on Windows now. Full list of changes: Support cryptopy if PyCrypto is not available. Enhances cross-platform support. Print an error message if the decryption produced wrong data (normally caused by a bad password) Add ...

New tool released: Relevation

I've just published a new tool I named 'Relevation'. It's a command-line tool to access the passwords stored with the excellent Revelation Password Manager, which only provides a graphical interface. I've been using the basis of my new tool on my computers for more than 4 years now and decided I might as well release ...

Site is back to normal, finally

After a whole month of mess after my shared webhosting got hacked, my sites are now back to normal, all downloads should be available again. This has been so annoying to get fixed I'm unable to find words to describe the experience. In the meantime I've moved some stuff into two new sites: The pictures ...

VCS 1.12.2 released

Another minor update, although the last few versions have contained a really stupid bug that prevented the temporary files from being removed (leading to a lot of stale, possibly big, files), so upgrading is highly recommended. Thanks to Jason Tackaberry for pointing the bug. Note though I'm still on holidays so this is a quick ...

VCS 1.12.1 released

A very small update this time. It's only been delayed by real life stuff. Only worth mentioning: Workaround for cases in which GAWK uses comma as decimal separator. Many European languages use commas but only a few versions of GAWK do actually print them (and newer versions don't anymore). People encountering this bug will have ...

VCS 1.12 released

VCS 1.12 is ready to download As with 1.11 many of the changes are pretty radical and might break but it's been working fine for me so far. The changes are quite a few so I'll try to explain as best as I can. Documentation for the new stuff is on the way. New in ...
