Curved Text in SVG

Curved text in SVG isn't too hard, as long as you understand how to define different kinds of curved <path> elements in SVG. When you have a curved <path> defined in a <defs> elements (usually just inside your root <svg>), to make the text inside a <text> element follow that <path>, all that's required is to insert a <textPath> inside the <text>, with an xlink:href attribute that links to the id of the defined <path>. The actual text for display also gets added inside the <textPath>, like so:

<text>
  <textPath xlink:href="#yourPath">
    Your text
  </textPath>

Searching for Files

Find images in a directory that don't have a DateTimeOriginal

exiftool -filename -filemodifydate -createdate -r -if '(not $datetimeoriginal) and $filetype eq "JPEG"' .

###Output photos that don't have datetimeoriginal to a CSV### Note this can take a long time if you have a lot of jpgs

The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

This tutorial as a series of videos

If you prefer to watch video tutorials with live-coding, then check out this series I recorded with the same contents as in this article: Egghead.io - Introduction to Reactive Programming.

	// Usage

	let argv = CStringArray(["ls", "/"])
	posix_spawnp(nil, argv.pointers[0], nil, nil, argv.pointers, nil)

	// Is this really the best way to extend the lifetime of C-style strings? The lifetime
	// of those passed to the String.withCString closure are only guaranteed valid during
	// that call. Tried cheating this by returning the same C string from the closure but it
	// gets dealloc'd almost immediately after the closure returns. This isn't terrible when
	// dealing with a small number of constant C strings since you can nest closures. But
