Implementing External Link Icons: A Comprehensive Guide

When building websites, it's common practice to indicate when links will open in a new tab or window (target="_blank"). This guide examines multiple approaches to automatically add external link icons, exploring the strengths and limitations of each method.

The Goal

Convert this SVG icon:

Domains.plist

Documentation of /System/Library/Backup/Domains.plist. File taken from iOS 16.4 iPhone SE 3. The file was removed in iOS 17.0

Values

Values in the plist. Other than SystemDomains, these are not really important and are just here for preservation sake.

A domain in domains.plist contains keys that determine what gets backed up for what types of devices and where (i.e. iCloud vs iTunes). Not all domains have each key. The only 2 keys that must be in every domain are RootPath and RelativePathsToBackupAndRestore. Some domains have the value ShouldDigest. I am not sure exactly what it means but I have included it for documentation purposes.

Version: "24.0"
SystemDomains: (Dictionary), see below

Navigating the modes of Vim

This diagram illustrates navigating through Vim’s modes. It was built factoring Vim 9 (i.e., all its modes, including up to two new modes, cr and cvr, in November 2023). Information about the state() and 'showmode' is provided too.

SVG version

Some features are only available in the SVG version. It is not provided directly from within this gist’s files because SVGs do not always play nicely in GitHub (particularly, refusing to display embedded fonts).

The SVG version includes hover text help, which shows pertinent information about the underlying key, command, mode, etc.

SIPS (Scriptable Image Processing System)

SIPS (Scriptable Image Processing System) is a command-line utility available on macOS that enables users to perform various image manipulation tasks directly from the command line. It supports a wide range of image file formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, and more

Example usage:

Scale an image (without aspect ratio): sips -z width height input_image --out output_image
Scale an image (maintain aspect ratio): sips -z 800 0 original.jpg --out scaled.jpg
Query image properties: sips -g dpiHeight -g dpiWidth image.jpg

The original snippet no longer works!

On 02/09/2024 at around 8pm UTC, Discord flipped an experiment (2023-09_mobile_redesign_override_toggles) which ignores the layout toggle that this script relied on.

If you want to continue using the old layout, you can either use a modded mobile client (such as Vendetta) to disable that experiment, or downgrade to an old version of the app.

Method 1 - Downgrading (Android)

Tip

Use this one if you want a fast, beginner-friendly solution and don't mind using a version from November 2023

Download version 205.15 of Discord mobile app from ApkMirror
