[9fans] httplib.rc
Hi, while I was on holiday I made some changes to /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/httplib.rc I added the ability to request a specific byte range via http-ranges : -r offset count and add the capability to include a referer header : -e referer I also made reponses that were chunked de-chunked (only for non ssl requests otherwise they still need piping through /n/sources/contrib/maht/dechunk.c) The script /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/get_file.rc resumes the download of a named file (you can't pipe out from it) provided the server provides it! it also requires /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/maths.rc which adds arithmetic functions to rc see /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/gauss.rc for an example of the convoluted way of using that! matt EOT
[9fans] imgfs
I did some work on /n/sources/contrib/maht/imgfs stripped out a load of stuff and brought import_ppm inside rather than an external tool imgfs echo glenda > /n/imgfs/new echo import ppm /n/sources/contrib/maht/imgfs/glenda.ppm > /n/imgfs/images/glenda/ctrl ls -l /n/imgfs/images/glenda/* --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 0 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/alpha --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 1 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/blue --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 0 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/ctrl --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 1 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/green --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 3 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/height --r--r--r-- M 567 maht maht 30021 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/ppm --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 1 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/red --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 0 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/select --rw-rw-rw- M 567 maht maht 3 Feb 22 18:54 /n/imgfs/images/glenda/width convolute works like this echo convolute red 3x3 1.1 1.2 1.3 2.1 2.2 2.3 3.1 3.2 3.3 > /n/imgfs/images/glenda/ctrl and that's as far as I got, or rather I then started writing rc scripts to make gaussian convolution kernels page ppm works if you want to see your results writing to red green and blue changes the ppm matt
[9fans] actionfs
Hi, this one was an experiment /n/sources/contrib/maht/actionfs.c invoked with a regex like actionfs (file.mpg).([0-9]+).(ppm) if you then cat /n/actionfs/file.mpg.100.ppm actionfs responds with the output from executing /bin/action-read $fd file.mpg.100.ppm file.mpg 100 ppm where $fd will be an fd to write to i.e. trivially action-read would be something like #!/bin/rc fd = $1 shift echo $* > /fd/$fd - The coresponding action-write also works #!/bin/rc fd = $1 shift cat /fd/$fd > /dev/null # or whatever - I wrote it specifically to extract individual frames from video files using ffmpeg on Linux and bring them into Plan9 for processing but generalized the arguments in case I thought of something interesting later. My first round of experiment went like this cpu% cat /bin/action-read #!/bin/rc # expect fd fullname videoname frameno fname = `{echo -n $3 | tr ! '/'} { ssh storm single_frame $fname $4 } > /fd/$1 cpu% cat /n/storm/home/maht/bin/single_frame #!/usr/local/plan9/bin/rc # expect filename frameno timer = `{echo $2 | awk ' { printf "%d.%02d\n", $1/ 25, 4 * ($1 % 25) }'} { ffmpeg -i $1 -t 00.001 -ss $timer /tmp/frame_$pid ^_%d.ppm cat /tmp/frame_$pid ^_1.ppm rm -f frame_$pid ^_1.ppm rm -f frame_$pid ^_2.ppm # stupid ffmpeg outputs 2 frames (sometimes) } >[2] /dev/null I was then using imgfs to calculate the average rgb value to look for black frames but (unsurprisingly) it was taking too long (4 secs per frame) esp. as the Plan9 I was using is in Qemu, cue installing Plan 9 on my terminal. The ffmpeg part on the Linux side (2Ghz Opteron) was taking 1 second on its own so I have to come up with some sort of look ahead cache which is contrary to the idea, I may as well just convert the whole file to ppms at the start! I've not looked if it is I/O or CPU - perhaps a bit of both. I've not got round to doing it on my fresh terminal yet. I've got a new 3.2Ghz Dual Xeon server to migrate to and a Quad Core terminal to play with so we'll see how that works out. I was hoping to get Xcpu in there but I couldn't see how to get the Plan9 part working though I have the Linux bits up. I have a couple of decent OSX boxes available too (one PPC one Intel) but I gave up getting it to compile :) too many projects . matt
[9fans] R G Loeliger meets Glenda
My first stab at a TIL was in AVR assembler but it was more fun to write the code than to find a way to use it. I still don't have a use but at least I don't have to run it on the AVR anymore to experiment first an example run cpu% /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/til abc¯def 123 emit abc def 123 : emit4 emit emit emit emit 1 2 3 emit4 321 1 swp 3 2 swp dup dup drop emit4 emit 3321 As you may see gets converted to newlines and ¯ (alt__ in plan9, alt0175 on the numpad in windows drawterm) gets converted to a space (any better ideas?) It's the fruit of an evening's playing, so I've got a few features to add yet (saving the words will be trivial as you should see from the code) I should give props to BashForth for giving me the idea, but I've not looked at any of it's code (ugh). matt

oops I forgot carriage returns get converted in email imagine # is a ^m pu% /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/til abc¯def#123# emit abc def 123 : emit4 emit emit emit emit # 1 2 3 emit4 321 1 # swp 3 2 swp dup dup drop emit4 emit 3321 does this make sense / of interest to anyone :) matt
