The open stacks gallery has been updated!

Post by marielle » Mon Apr 17, 2006 2:28 pm

I propose to use this topic to provide information on any update in the
open stacks gallery

You will find there a collection of stacks falling in various categories of use: coursewares, cal generators, games, graphs, learning transcript, tools & plugins, widgets & ecards. Mosts of these stacks are distributed under a share-alike license. You are free to re-use the stack or re-use the code for your own projects... provided that if you happen to distribute the resulting stack, you do it under the same share-alike license. Some stacks are under a less restrictive license, where you are only asked to acknowledge the source and nothing else.

The gallery warmly welcomes contributions from any fellow user. Just use the private messaging in these forums, or download the Metadata file creator in the open stacks gallery and use it to send me an email. My email address has been updated and a "send by email" button has been added to make the task of sharing your stacks easier than ever before.

Note that a link can also be made to any stack stored on the internet or any stack stored on revOnline. Just let me know where the stack is stored and I will link to it!

2 new stacks, character palette and use-list digest reader

Post by marielle » Mon Apr 17, 2006 2:30 pm

Dear all,

The Open Stacks Gallery has been updated with new stacks.


Character Map, by Garrett Hylltun
A Character Map that shows the standard ascii character map. Simple to view, simple to use.

Use-list digests reader, by your servitor.
Provides a threaded view of use-list digests, for the ones like me who are in digest mode. Possibility to reply to any thread privately, to the user, or publicly, to the list. I left some formatting options that are probably not relevant for any person other than me (I use this to reformat the posts before posting them on the codes cms). Feel free to change the stack to better suit your needs.

Note that only stacks added in the last week are visible. Use "added any time" in the top menu to see stacks older than 7 days.

Take me to the Open Stacks Gallery

Best,
Marielle

Hopalong orbit fractal

Post by marielle » Mon Apr 24, 2006 12:18 pm

Hopalong orbit fractal
Interactive drawing of hopalongs graphs, a sort of orbit-fractals. It illustrates how to very rapidly construct an image by relying on the "pen tool" utilities rather than the usual graphics objects.

Hopalong orbits were discovered by Barry Martin from the Aston University, Birmingham, England. A.K. Dewdney presented the Hopalongs in the magazine Scientific American 1986.

Stack content directly inspired by a page on hopalongn fractal at Ulli's Fractal Home.

Tested on a Mac only. Runrev 2.6.

Send them whenever you are ready. :D

I worked a bit on the Gallery of Open Stacks

That's an improvement in terms of functionality (quicker navigation) but not really in terms of design. More work needs to be done.

If anybody around has stacks that they would like to be added, let me know. Stacks there tend to be the hobbyist (week-end project) or education type but there is no real admission criterion. I check the stack. If it works I put it in. If it doesn't work, I let you know. That's all that is involved in terms of selection process. ;)

And if you want to be really nice to me, you can use the "Metadata file creator" to encode the relevant information yourself. It hasn't been extensively tested on different platforms and systems, so please do report any problem you may have with it.

New Stack in the Open Gallery - Stemmer Library

Post by marielle » Sun Nov 19, 2006 5:56 pm

New Stack added to the open stacks gallery. Thanks to Eric for contributing this one.

Stemmer Library

English , French, Italian, Spanish, German and Portuguese stemmers. English stemmer originally written by Ken Ray, others by Eric Chatonet.

Porter algorithms are very handy to automatically isolate the stem of a word (that is, the main part of a word to which affixes are added). However they are known not to be 100% reliable. To address this issue, we adopt the following approach. Words are first checked against the list of words known to be parsed incorrectly (that is, incorrectly parsed when applying the algorithm on a corpus of 20 000 forms). If a match is found with an item from this list, the stem is defined by simple dictionary lookup. If not match is found, then the stem is defined using Porter's algorithm. With this approach, reliability was found to be higher than 99% for each one of the six languages.

Explanations on how to use this stack are in the lib itself.

Calculator widget

Post by marielle » Fri Dec 08, 2006 1:10 pm

http://revolution.widged.com/stacks/

Basic Scientific Calculator with an aqua theme. It can be used on its own or as substack of a main stack.

Kindly provided by Guy Petinon, from the Revolution FR (Yahoo Group) community.

Diff and Comp tool

Post by marielle » Thu Dec 28, 2006 5:47 pm

Diff & Comp Tool

Another stack added to the stack galllery.

Image

A little utility that let you run Diff (en.wikipedia.org) and Cmp like comparisons. Comp compares all files in a folder for strict equivalence. Diff compares a file to another file for parts of text that would have been added or removed. Colors are added for faster read out.

Notes:
1. non mac users will probably want to change the font for the output fields to some monospaced font that works for them (the font is set to Monaco, which I believe to be a Mac only font

2. For some reason the Ok button doesn't work on the first attempt (when the pop up stack is opened for the first time) but works on all successive attempts

list with numbers

Post by marielle » Tue Jan 16, 2007 10:17 pm

A simplistic widget:

Image

When you scroll down the list, the numbers on the left follow. If the number of lines gets changed, simply shift+click on the field to update the number values to exactly match the number of lines


[Note: the diff utility, mentioned in the previous post, has been improved to allow direct text to text comparison]

A few more stack on the gallery

Post by marielle » Wed Mar 14, 2007 3:45 pm

The open stacks gallery has been updated with nice stacks spotted on revOnline.

Visit the stack gallery

If you would like your work to be shown there, simply send me an email with information about your stack. Your stack don't need to be on revOnline for me to link to it. It can be on your own website or I happily host a local copy of it.

Best,
Marielle

PS. if at any point you would like me to stop linking to one of your stack, let me know as well.

RRDoc - Automatic Documentation Generation tool

Post by marielle » Sun Apr 08, 2007 6:23 pm

Last addition to the open stacks gallery, an automatic documentation generator... at least a first draft of one.

Image

If you follow the source commenting conventions of javadoc or jsdoc, and have each rr function preceded by a header of this type:

Code: Select all

/**
*  :function.grabHeader
*   
*   When given a script content and the line number at which 
*   a function starts in this script, returns the header (i.e. block of
*    comments on the code) and call parts of this function. 
*
*   @param	text The script that needs to be parsed
*   @param	number The line at which the function starts in the script
*/
function function.grabHeader pScript, pStart
The code there automatically generate the documentation for your script.

The block above would be translated into the following:

Code: Select all

function.grabHeader
	function function.grabHeader pScript, pStart

When given a script content and the line number at which 
a function starts in this script, returns the header (i.e. block of
comments on the code) and call parts of this function. 

Parameters
	pScript - text - The script that needs to be parsed 
	pStart - number - The line at which the function starts in the script
