Single file

“ As many of works come in variations, we specifically cite the source that we used, and often mention that there are variations, sometimes replicate multiple version and disambiguate, or some show the versions on the same page. I cite in the Notes section. What we have been trying to focus upon recently is getting images of the works, and uploading to Commons, and then having both. We have tools that allow us to look at the text especially when it is a DjVu format, and we transclude from the file into the main namespace. ”

“ What format is being looked at to supply the information? We encourage image files with text layers, though that is usually when we are proofreading / transcribing, which isn't going to be happening on this occasion. Our preferred means is .djvu file, and these are uploaded to Commons, which obviously makes them universally available. If they create a PDF file with a text layer, see instructions about conversion at the djvu link. Alternatively, mention where we can download a PDF file, and a number of us can assist. ”

“ Abstract A method is disclosed for maintaining consistent states of a file system. The file system progresses from one self-consistent state to another self-consistent state. The set of self-consistent blocks on disk that is rooted by a root inode is referred to as a consistency point. The root inode is stored in a file system information structure. To implement consistency points, new data is written to unallocated blocks on disk. A new consistency point occurs when the file system information structure is updated by writing a new root inode into it. ”

“ When a .DjVu is uploaded and hosted as a source-file, all that additional, internal "informative data" is processed as / forced to the metadata part of the File: namespace where one typically finds info like camera-type, various date, dpi, colors, and similar for true image files like .PNGs, .JPGs and .TIFFs for example. ”

“ Should a file become quite empty, with not even face-down cards in it, then it is possible to fill it with a king and any proper following sequence, should such a one be within reach in any other file. ”

“ Always strive to upload complete and workable source files. Flawed files with missing pages, blurred images, duplicate pages and similar defects that may hinder the proofreading process should be addressed prior to uploading whenever possible.
Actions on Wikisource:
Replace the "File" with "Index" in the page title and go to this page. For example, if the file is called File:Filename.djvu, enter the page title Index:Filename.djvu. Enter this title into the search box on Wikisource, and press "enter. On the resulting page, you will find a link to "create" this page. ”

“ This file is in DjVu, a computer file format designed primarily to store scanned documents, especially those containing text and line drawings. It features advanced technologies such as image layer separation of text and background/images, progressive loading, arithmetic coding, and lossy compression for bitonal images. This allows for high quality, readable images to be stored in a minimum of space, so that they can be made available on the web. You may view this DjVu file here online. ”

“ Episode duplicates all inodes and indirect blocks so that it can set a Copy-On-Write (COW) bit in all pointers to blocks that are used by both the active file system and the clone. In Episode, it is important to identify these blocks so that new data written to the active file system does not overwrite "old" data that is part of the done and, therefore, must not change. ”

“ The proc filesystem contains information about the system and running processes. Some of the “files” in /proc are reasonably understandable to humans (try typing cat /proc/meminfo or cat /proc/cpuinfo) ; others are arcane collections of numbers. Often, system utilities use these to gather information and present it to you in a more understandable way.
People frequently panic when they notice one file in particular— /proc/kcore —which is generally huge. This is (more or less) a copy of the contents of your computer’s memory. It’s used to debug the kernel. ”

“ This is as of early 1996; note that the threshold for `real computer' rises with time. See {bitty box} and {toy}.
:GFR: /G-F-R/ /vt./ [ITS: from `Grim File Reaper', an ITS and LISP Machine utility] To remove a file or files according to some program-automated or semi-automatic manual procedure, especially one designed to reclaim mass storage space or reduce name-space clutter (the original GFR actually moved files to tape) . Often generalized to pieces of data below file level. "I used to have his phone number, but I guess I {GFR}ed it." ”

“ What is also absent from the summary above is that most the discussion has been over our internal filename, which may or may not be reflected in the title we use for the user-accessible version of the work. We could upload a file to Commons as File:Fred.dvju, use Index:Fred.djvu locally, create Page:Fred.djvu, and still title that work Axioms Outlined by Artistotle. Our internal filename and public work title do not have to match, nor do they even have to resemble each other. Frequently, they do not. ”

“ When I scan a book in multiple parts, I upload them without metadata here so they can be combined and reuploaded as one file with metadata at Commons. 2. Especially for books of length, that would take a great deal of time; this book, scanning with PDF as native, took me over six hours in two sittings. I usually make (and will make in this case) high-quality scan images of pages with images. Another problem is file size: I have to scan to a flash drive which only has about 6 GB of free space, so scanning high-quality images would require more sittings. ”

“ A snapshot uses no disk space when it is initially created. It is designed so that many different snapshots can be created for the same file system. Unlike prior art file systems that create a clone by duplicating the entire inode file and all of the indirect blocks, the present invention duplicates only the inode that describes the inode file. ”

“ ThomasV (talk) 10:04, 22 January 2010 (UTC) When updating the files, it gives ready access to the file, which is particularly useful with all the purging that I have been needing to undertake to reunite texts with their images. I would agree that the field name is self-evident, and that it maybe has morphed over time. File type is possibly what it should be labelled, and I have thought about doing something, however, I stir the pot often enough. ”

“ When we post a HTML eBook containing multiple files, whether they contain text or images, we post them only in zipped format, so if you don't have images, and want your text to be directly accessible, you should stick to one file where possible. ”

“ Nowadays, like many operating systems, UNIX hides behind a graphical user interface like the X Windows system. Occasionally—and networking is unfortunately one of those occasions— its quirks like file-naming and directory hierarchy peek through.
This Appendix gives you just enough UNIX to avoid some pitfalls and issue commands needed to transfer files. The basic commands you need to know for any system are how to display directories and list the contents of files, how to name files, and how to get help about the system. ”

“ The colors used in the line drawings represent the transcriber’s best guess. To try an alternative version, do one of two things:
Open the “images” directory, rename the folder line_main (to anything) and then rename line_alt to line_main.
Or, if you are comfortable editing HTML text, globally change line_main to line_alt in this file. (The Technical Note has been formatted so you will not accidentally change anything in this paragraph.) Save under a new name to keep both versions.
The illustrations with a gold background are taken from the endpapers. ”

“ Got! :-) George or Bee (can I make your nick shorter?) , try this in a js console staying in Index:De re metallica (1912) .djvu, and try different values for eq () or do what you like: $ (".toc-data") .eq (1) .data () I feel that it's a good way, a KISS one. :-D --Alex brollo (talk) 11:55, 22 July 2013 (UTC) You are obviously in love with throw-away, work bench called Page: namespace. Why? Its just a tool! Good source file is ALWAYS the best way to "digitize" from one file format to another -- not stupid space used to compare right-side picture to left-side transcription. ”

“ Find the appropriate replacement on Internet Archive, preferably DjVu. Using the OAuth tool, transfer the work to the commons directly from IA. This option allows you to properly name the file. Create a Category on the commons to place the file in it. This is especially important for storing the images. Please see my contributions on the Commons. Create the Index: file on Wikisource, the name must be the same as on the Commons for proper linkage. Tag the old file for deletion using {{speedy}} or {{sdelete}}, they are the same thing. ”

“ When a system crash occurs between fsinfo block updates, each copy of the fsinfo block 1810 and 1870 has a self consistent checksum (not shown in the diagram) , but one of the generation numbers 1810D or 1870D has a higher value. ”

“ A scan of a work is uploaded (like all other media files) . An index is created with the same filename as the scanned file, but in the Index: namespace. The index contains some bibliographic metadata, but primarily exists to give the ProofreadPage extension a mapping between the File: and the pages in the Page: namespace, and to provide a mapping between the physical pages of the PDF or DjVu file and the "logical" page numbers of the work (think of a book where the first chapter is "Page 1", but where the actual first page of the PDF is the cover, or title page, etc.) ”

“ WAFL inode 230 points to WAFL inode 240. WAFL inode 240 points to inode 250. The pointer 250A of WAFL inode 250 contains a null value and therefore does not point to another inode. Thus, it is the last inode in the list 210 of dirty inodes. Each inode in the list 210 represents a file comprising a tree of buffers as depicted in FIG. 10. At least one of the buffers referenced by each inode 220-250 is a dirty buffer. A dirty buffer contains modified data that must be written to a new disk location in the WAFL system. WAFL always writes dirty buffers to new locations on disk. ”

“ Modern technology has changed what was once a straightforward issue into a somewhat difficult one, so today's users need to be especially alert when it comes to copying. Generally, any action that transfers a file from one electronic device to another involves making a copy, even if you intend to erase that copy at some point in the future. ”

“ If you look at the IA JPG, compared to the DJVU version, you can see the huge loss of detail caused by the DJVU compression which is optimised for text, not images. Can I recommend that you take your initial image from the IA directly, rather than from the compressed DJVU? However, I think it is certainly possible to: Automatically download a file (the name is directly related the image path, and simple scripting tools can grab images from a web address) Run a script on the file (you have that done already) Reupload (pywikipedia has an upload script that can overwrite files) . ”

“ Each format that a reader understands has one or more converter programs that run on your PC, and turn the plain text file into that format. So in general, you have to:
1. Download the PG text
2. Edit the text for the layout the converter wants (often HTML) .
3. Use the converter to create a file of the format the reader wants.
4. Transfer the converted file to your PDA.
If all this sounds too complicated, remember that many people take and convert PG texts into many formats, and offer them for download from their sites. ”

“ Uploading the original scans will allow users to proofread and verify the text through the ProofreadPage extension. What type of files are the scans of the source text? Common file types include TIFF, JPEG, and PDF. For many file types, you can use Any2DjVu to convert your scans to DJVU. Once you have a DJVU file, you can upload it to commons and begin adding the text to Wikisource. Cheers, stephen (talk) 17:11, 7 October 2010 (UTC) Reaching Out Hi again,
How hard would it be to create a list of all the parameters and their values currently found in in existing EO headers? ”

“ A user has written a subprogram in a compiler language and wishes to incorporate it into his set of programs already developed and kept in the central disk file. After sitting down at a console, he first gives a login command to identify himself. His next command, input, turns his console into a pseudo-keypunch. Using simple conventions, he types in his subprogram for storage with other subprograms on the disk. If he should note any typing or logic errors in his new file, now or at any later time, he can correct the file using an edit command. ”

“ This means it wasn't the original source file uploaded to IA for processing but one of the result products of the processing. The .tar archive (line 17) of presumably 1 .jp2 file for every 1 page scanned is the source file.
Now a bad scan is bad scan and no amount of re-jiggering will dramatically improve on resulting quality of files derived. The flip side being a good-scan is a good scan and re-running the latest derive modules and updated software against it will likely improve results one way or the other - maybe even all around (i.e. better thumbnails and a superior text-layer) . ”
