We discovered some broken images on the file server; it turned out they were TIFFs, but named *.jpg. I wrote this quick script to check all the images on the server. It found 44, which we'll replace when we have the chance.

#!/bin/bash

echo "Checking all images to see if they are really images."

> temp.txt

find . -iname "*.jpg" -type f -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d $'\0' file;
  do 
    INFO=`file "$file"`
    if ! [[ $INFO =~ 'JPEG' ]]; then
echo "$file" >> temp.txt
    fi
done

let lines=`wc -l < temp.txt`

echo "List of images which are not real JPEGs." > falseJpegs.txt
echo "----------------------------------------" >> falseJpegs.txt
echo "" >> falseJpegs.txt

sort temp.txt >> falseJpegs.txt

echo "Found $lines broken images, listed in falseJpegs.txt."

Did some work on the Oxygen plugin to try to make it functional in Oxygen 18.0+, and not broken in 21.0. RVDB helped with a problem getting the JTEI pdf output to work. I think everything's working in 21.0 now, but I have no easy way of testing in prior versions.

I finally have the rather gnarly code that finds and lists the best candidates for tagged interviews working, and I'm now using that to build all the HTML interviews. I've also added anchors to the HTML so that when I'm creating the analysis listings pages, each extract can link to its source in context. Those pages are next. 180 minutes.

All-day Endings workshop, then all the catching up in other projects resulting from being away from the desk.

All-day workshop had everybody tagging with Oxygen, and my two interviews both got fully encoded; I'm now working on the processing which will create a useful set of listings pages for each of the categories. 420 minutes.

Although I've only got one done ahead of the Monday workshop, I do have it tagged, and I've fairly solidly tested the tagging process. All seems to be OK. 120 minutes.

KSS is unable to use Oxygen on his computer, so in addition to completing the process of making validation parameterized and therefore runnable on a subset of files identified by id, I've also written a little script to do this, which is designed to run repeatedly on a set of files to keep checking while you work. I've been looking for a way to do this for a while, and although we're not likely to have many non-Oxygen folks, it's really a useful model to have. 120 minutes.

Trying to get validation working on Windows, JT and I have succeeded, but at the cost of breaking the regular diagnostics build on Jenkins. I think there's only one remaining problem to solve, though. 90 minutes.

Encoded the Gerpla bibliography. The only problem is with some Japanese text, which if it needs to be included will need some work to pick out a font that matches and subset it. That may not be worth the trouble for a small section of Japanese that is not likely to be readable by our audience. Waiting for feedback from editors. 120 minutes.
