Guide to using Argyll CMS to create ICC profiles for scanners

Guide to using Argyll CMS to create ICC profiles for scanners

(A.K.A. "What to Do When CoCa Doesn't Work")

This guide may help you if one or more of these things that describe me also describe you:

  • Comfortable working on the command line
  • Bought a LaserSoft Advanced IT8 target without realizing that support for it is spottier than for the regular IT8 target
  • Have a .cxf file for your calibration target rather than a .cie file or a .txt file
  • Missed the bit on [scanning.guide] where it tells you you should scan the calibration target at less than 600 dpi

Convert all scrolling to horizontal scrolling
// Make vertical mousewheel movement scroll a page horizontally.
//
// Seems to work well with Mac trackpads and Magic Mouse on macOS.
// Also works with either scroll direction on macOS.
// If body has class 'scroll-horizontal'
if(document.body.className.split(' ').indexOf('scroll-horizontal') !== -1) {
['wheel', 'mousewheel', 'DOMMouseScroll'].forEach(function(eventName) {
// Test for browser support of event

75th / rot.sh

A Bash script for Caesar ciphers. I needed (well, wanted) a tool to do ROT-n ciphers for arbitrary n. So here it is. If n is not provided, it defaults to ROT-13. No ROT-5 for numerals as yet. This is my first shell script for public consumption; feedback is eagerly welcome, but please be gentle.
#! /bin/bash
# Usage: rot [base] string
#
# Base is assumed to be 13 if not specified.
#
# Bases not in 0-25 are taken modulo 26; negatives are increased by
# 26es until they're positive. Thus, any integer should work
# as expected.

LESS: Items of varying width side-by-side, filling up a fixed width
/*
* Sometimes, with a horizontal navigation menu, you need the items
* to vary in width, but to all fill up a predetermined width.
*
* Doing this with normal CSS involves annoying, tedious arithmetic,
* and making changes is painful.
*
* This snippet uses LESS to make maintaining such a menu easy.
