@smeech @kukuk Many differences, when looking at the details. And #espanso supports forms, same with #texpander?

Also wrote myself a small pandoc function so I can convert #emacs buffers from one format to another in case anyone else finds this useful: codeberg.org/theesm/pandoc-con

As alternatives there's pandoc.el which is more eww focused, ox-pandoc as an ox-backend, and pandoc-mode which is really cool but does way too much for my limited use-case. Wanted to keep a simple buffer->pandoc->buffer workflow as that's what I mostly need and use.

@hanselot ... although, for this platform, the following draft might be more appropriate 😀 Feel free to improve it!
#ascii_art #mastodon #mastoart #emacs

The upper part of the image shows the head of a mastodon, approximated by ASCII characters, the lower part shows a line art approximation of that ASCII art image, generated with ascidia.

@hanselot Yes! Nice, that you recognized her!

Lieber Herr #Merz, wir haben nachgeschaut: Wir haben noch #alleTassenimSchrank. Außer denen, die gerade beim Spülen sind, damit sie innen nicht braun werden.
Viele Grüße!

Still having fun with calling #ascii_art interpreters from within #emacs #orgmode. This time, #ascidia, a great #python library and stand alone converter of ascii art to PNG or SVG.

@lf_araujo Hmm, for our energy system models [1] we use Plotly Dash Cytoscape [2]. I don't know, if this might be helpful. Your graphs look really complex.

@lf_araujo You're not satisfied with #graphviz

I love these retro methods, like drawing simple line art using keyboard characters.

In #emacs #orgmode, #babel can convert #ascii_art graphics into nice svg graphics using the great #svgbob tool.

Stick figure with speech bubble says 1970. From there, an arrow points to a CPU and another one from there to a nice svg representation of the stick figure. The text in the bubble has changed to 2021 »Magic!«.

🖥️ Understanding the Linux File System 🐧

If you're diving into the world of Linux, one of the most important concepts to understand is the Linux File System (LFS). The way Linux organizes and manages data on a disk is essential for navigating, managing files, and running your system smoothly. So let’s break down how the Linux File System works, its structure, and the key components! 🚀

The interactive calculation sheet for #engineering, based on #emacs, #orgmode, #texlatex and #sympy is available in English [1], although the blog article is in German [2]. The template is also in English [3].

#Orgmode is so impressive, you could use #maxima, #octave, #gnuplot, #graphviz and almost 40 other languages with all their libraries right out of the box [4].

Have fun!

Bei der 24. Sanitärtechnischen Symposium am 04. April 2025 steht dieses Mal neben der Entwässerungstechnik und Trinkwasserhygiene ein Abschied im Fokus. Denn nach über 30 Jahren an der FH Münster verabschiedet sich Prof. Dr. Schmickler in den Ruhestand. Er gibt den Staffelstab an Prof. Dr. Carsten Bäcker weiter. Dieses Mal findet die Fachtagung nicht auf dem Technologie-Campus Steinfurt statt, sondern in der Tobit Town in Ahaus. Es sind nur noch wenige Plätze frei: fh.ms/symposium2025
