Hey Lobster

its good to see that you are having fun coding


I want to get back to using xcowsay
there is still a lot that can be done with it

we just scratched the surface of all the cool things that will be done with it

I am still thinking about an easy code generator GUI for
it I believe it will happen when we have more users
post there examples to express their imaginations

that will better define what should be added to the options in the GUI list

Joe

Thanks Joe,

Have done a Buddhist version for Tara
Mother of the imaginary Tantric Buddhas

http://tmxxine.com/tara/tara.zip
run the enclosed pupsay if not on your system
- I would not try more than 3 loops
as I have not done the timings
as I quite like the over looping . . .

You can see it running here

Subject description: utf... german umlaute		  
Hi,

saw chinese and russian examples. So compiled xcowsay under 5.1 and didn't get german umlaute. uuups. Should be showing UTF correctly, or not?

In my efforts to educate myself and perhaps the children who will be learning programming on Puppy running on raspberry pi (when available) I have created a complete first lesson in Bash script using xpupsay . . .
The downloadable zip file includes all you need including xpupsay
which works OK in Puppy 5.3.1 - the only system I tried it on Cool

To run the tutorial you need to install xpupsay
just click on xpupsay.pet
You will need to change the permissions of script files
with the .sh - to allow them to run
in puppy - right click on the file in rox
(click on the home icon - you are in rox)
and change permissions

The first program is a hello world example

Code:
#! /bin/bash
# 16 Dec 2011 Lobster
# Example 1 hello world example

xpupsay "hello world"
xpupsay "puppy power"


Code:
#! /bin/bash
# 16 Dec 2011 Lobster
# Example 3 play audio loop

  xpupsay "Let's boogy"
 
for i in {1..5}
do
 aplay /usr/share/audio/beep_high.wav
 aplay /usr/share/audio/beep_high.wav
  sleep .2
 aplay /usr/share/audio/beep_low.wav
   sleep 1
 aplay /usr/share/audio/beep_high.wav
 aplay /usr/share/audio/audio/error.wav
done


moving right up to example 3 which covers the first use of loops
Is that the simplest for loop?

Dear Lobster,

Very nice start. I could see a complete tutorial, and having teachers flock to puppy as a preferred vehicle for teaching basic programming concepts. Too much work for me, but it could be a collective effort. If my memory serves me right, quite a bit of work was done already on an edupuppy at some point but i don't know what's in it. I'll have to have a look.

With kind regards,
vovchik

Well now . . .

Talking cows, need raspberries (a well known fact) Smile

Using genuine raspberry pi, some scripting help,
- real alpha 2 software from Barry K and Lobsterian almost programming
I have been working on this script

Code:
#! /bin/bash

xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Hello Raspberrians, Lobster here with Puppi
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 Hello Lobster. Hello world. Hello Puppys.
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Puppy are you really running on Raspberries?
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 I am being tested on Raspberry Pi
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Puppi, you changed your name slightly?
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 Just a slice of Pi . . .
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Ha Ha . . . What is the Raspberry Pi?
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 The smallest, dinkiest, cheapest motherboard . . .
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 What can you do on it Puppi?
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 I will demonstrate . . .

abiword text.abw &
sleep 3
killall abiword

inkscapelite draw1 &
sleep 3
killall inkscapelite

gnumeric Book1.gnumeric &
sleep 3
killall gnumeric

xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 Browse, calculate, FTP etc
/usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser http://puppylinux.org/wikka/PuppiPlan &
sleep 3
killall defaultbrowser

xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Very cool. Where can I get all that?
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/puppi.png --time=1 Google 'raspberry puppi'
xcowsay --image /root/a_rap/lobster.png --time=1 Pawsome. Woof. Woof.


I produced this video (still some bugs in my attempts at code)
http://youtu.be/c7MvS_3BHYY

and I have included all the files I have used including a recording script from Mick

You will need to install xcowsay on Puppy Sap alpha 2, which you can do with the package manager and download from Debian main

Some of the programs are not displaying properly . . .
will have to do some more coding or ask for further suggestions Smile


Puppy is Pawsome

Hi Lobster,
I hadn't noticed this before. I must have a go!
