Yeah that's what I'm searching for atm :/
My requirements on the format itself are not that high, at best I need to be able to add images and tables, I can reason with any format that will work with that, maybe convert it later if I need to.
Not really no, I need something that I can embed into my application, rather than 3rd party software, my application must work offline too :/
I need to automate the process to use it during an algorithm, this is far from practical.
Yeah my main is issue is trying to figure out how many pages it spans, I've looked at some docx and odt libs, none did seem to have an API related to getting the number of pages nor the height of some component (except for stuff with fixed heights like images...).
The underlying issue is that I want to create an exam paper with the least papers possible per exam, so I guess that at least I should be able to get the height of each question of the exam and rearrange them (using an algorithm) in a fashion that uses less papers.
Are there tools for documents manipulating that can provide an approximate size of components (text included)?
Long story short, I want to build a system that reorders some components in a document file (be it a docx or odt, I don't have a hard constraint atm).
So my problem input should be a document file, and I need to be able to approximate the number of pages consumed by this document file, I also need to be able to get the height of individual components (like a single paragraph or a table) to have the data I need to rearrange so I can make the document have less pages.
I don't have a hard constraint on the programming language of the tool either (Python preferred), I prefer not embedding LibreOffice into my system.
Also I'm willing to hear other solutions (maybe my input is not the optimal thing I can use for this problem).
Thanks in advance!
I've moved to Arch like a month ago, first installed i3, I think you'll only need xrandr and setup some hooks that set/reset xrandr on the screen plug/unplug, if you ALWAYS have two screens plugged in, you can execute xrandr on X startup and that's all about it
This is exactly what I needed, thanks a lot
Doxygen: Is it possible to reference methods and data members in other method's comment block?
Hello everyone, I've recently picked up doxygen and have been trying to document an old project, nevertheless, I have some class's method and I want to refer in the docs to another class's method and a data member of the same class
Here's the method:
void App::start() { for (unsigned i = 0; i < currentScene->gameObjects.size(); ++i) { currentScene->gameObjects[i]->start(); } timeSinceStart.restart(); }
I want to have a reference to GameObject::start and App::timeSinceStart in App::start doc block
(Sorry not in monospace, my Lemmy client doesn't seem to support it and I don't know the syntax here if one present)
I remember being able to create a persistent drive using Rufus and Linux Mint (Not the Debian edition though) , Rufus has a slider for creating a persistent drive when burning the iso, pretty sure you can find some guide online
Not sure about the security, but recently I've tried runit on a very old laptop with HDD and it took waaay much less to fully boot up than a clean Arch32 with systemd
Actually….it’s called NUL
Shifted to MX Linux, based on Debian, with Xfce desktop. Looks not bad in my opinion, but let's see how it goes. (https://mastodon.social/@thelinuxEXP) (https://lemmy.ml
I thought a WM would be lighter on resources that’s why I picked it up instead of XFCE, it’s doing it’s job well I guess

Been using the fluxbox 32bit variant for a while, pretty good and solid, lightweight on resources (the device runs on 1GB of ram and still serves me well enough) only drawback is outdated packages (cuz debian AND 32bit), also I’ve noticed the MX team has done some cool stuff (like I found telegram-desktop (kinda active package) in the MX repo there is no official binary for 32bit Linux)
Mint works pretty well as a persistent flash drive distro, the packages are a bit outdated though if you’re going to do a lot of programming
I’ve tried ranger for some while, pretty neat, but I haven’t tried other terminal file mangers tho
