Gambas Language File for GeSHi

In the next few week, I'll start posting my gambas tutorial. For that, I need a syntax highlighting feature for gambas language. This blog uses geshi for highlighting snippet. But, geshi doesn't have gambas language file built in. Googling didn't help me find any. Well, maybe gambas isn't that popular. Therefor, I though to my self, I have to create it. Now that it's ready, I think I have to share it. Maybe someone need it too for his site.

Click here to download it and rename it to gambas.php. Put this file along side with other geshi's language files.

Introducing PlayDeb

I'm sure some of you know getdeb. An alternative software source for ubuntu. Here we will find many software that's not available yet or available but is an older release on ubuntu's repository. You can find full range of category, including office stuff, development, communication, and game!. I love game!.

Now, they introduce a new service called PlayDeb. It's basically, another repository. But, focus on games that's already released on getdeb. So, if you have downloaded games from it, you will find PlayDeb as a great service, because you'll have an update notified via update notifier without continually visiting getdeb, looking for update. If you don't, well, you still be able to use it as an alternative game source.

Clever Use of Alias

My friend, Rio has made a tutorial on how to write a bash script that use our own mother language.
So, instead of using this snippet:

echo -e "\n-------- CONTOH PERULANGAN ---------"
for (( i=1; i<=5; i++ ))
do
   echo -n "$i "
done

We'll do it this way:

cetak -e "\n-------- CONTOH PERULANGAN ---------"
untuk (( i=1; i<=5; i++ ))
lakukan
   cetak -n "$i "
selesai

GPlurk – Simple Plurk Client

Since day one I use plurk, I always though it would be great if I don't have to open firefox only to plurk. Because it would consume more memory. I remembered that gambas has webbrowser component in it. So, I give it a try. Today, I'm ready to release it.

This project is hosted on google code hosting. To use it, you'll have to install gambas IDE first and you'll need linux. For ubuntu user, add this repository:

deb http://azores.linex.org/gambas-other/ hardy main

Here's a couple screen shot I've created:


You can download it here. Any comment and suggestion are welcome.

Idiots in Space

Idiots in space ada adalah serial komik dari CAD comic. Draft posting kali ini sebenarnya sudah saya delete. Karena pada halaman 12 Ethan mati, jadi saya berasumsi kalau ceritanya sudah selesai. Eh, ternyata hari ini di google reader muncul lagi lanjutannya, halaman 13.

Komik ini bermula saat Ethan sang tokoh utama terbang ke angkasa bersama smart pilot-bot bernama Zeke yang lupa membeli asuransi. Konflik mulai dilihatkan saat Zeke menerima panggilan darurat dari pesawat yang ternyata berada dekat sekali sehingga dengan loncat saja Ethan sampai ke pesawat tersebut. Didalam pesawat tersebut Ethan menemukan sebuah artifak yang ternyata adalah milik Krant, pemimpin tertinggi armada perang dari bangsa Flog. Dari sini, intrik mulai meningkat. Yang berakhir sedih dengan kematian Ethan di halaman 12. Tapi, ternyata cerita tidak berakhir disitu. Mau tahu lanjutannya? silahkan baca sendiri di website CAD comic :D .

BTW, Yang membuat saya menulis posting tentang seri Idiots in Space bukan karena gambarnya, tapi alur ceritanya yang bergantung pada vote pembaca. Di beberapa halaman, aksi Ethan ditentukan oleh vote dari pembaca. Misal saat menerima panggilan darurat, pembaca diberi pilihan apakah langsung menuju ke pesawat yang sedang bermasalah tersebut atau ke pesawat dia tersebih dahulu untuk mendengar isi panggilan darurat. Sehingga menambah unsur penasaran, apakah vote saya diterima (karena banyak yang mem-vote sama dan jumlahnya lebih besar dari vote opsi yang lain) dan kalaupun diterima, bagaimana lanjutannya karena tetap saja keputusan akhir cerita berada di tangan Tim Buckley, sang author.
