New tool released: Relevation

Next release (1.1) announcement 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 […]

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 […]

VCS 1.11.2 released

A new small update to vcs is available to download. This should be the last update before 1.12 (which will take a while to be ready) but the massive changes in 1.11.x still need more testing so who knows. Changes in 1.11.2: Some Real Audio codec names (v4, v5 and v6) Bugfix/Feature: Fallback for default […]

VCS 1.11.1 released

Here's a very small bugfix release, nothing too fancy this time around: – A name for the FLV1 codec (used in older flash videos) – Warnings about the DEFAULT_* configuration variables accidentally removed in the previous release (and temporarily accept them) – A check of ImageMagick's version that should work in all systems Also new […]

VCS 1.11 released

In this post: Release notes A note for everyone (but specially for porn aficionados) BTS and Documentation Release notes Finally a new version of vcs, and it brings a truckload of changes. So many in fact that it will probably break in new and unexpected ways but so far it has been working quite fine. […]

mp3plot 0.6.0 released

mp3plot 0.6.0 is out. It started as a bugfix release for a nasty bug when dealing with free-format or broken files (reported by Tricky Trix, thanks pal 🙂 ) and eventually led me to (finally) implement support for "MP1" (MPEG-1 Layer I), "MP2" (MPEG-1 Layer II) and all three layers of MPEG-2. Such files can […]

nautilus-folow-symlink 1.1 released

There's a refreshed version of nautilus-follow-symlink. Nothing new (after all there's little to be added), but I'm finally letting GNOME set the icon instead of force-feeding it, so it should, hopefully, display an icon matching the user-chosen theme. And it should also be friendlier to build.
