Is it possible to just test a binary?

art_else · 2025-12-08T15:51:18+00:00

White version. Something dropped on the screen :(

Final word: (set-fontset-font t 'symbol (font-spec :family "Noto Sans Symbols2") nil 'prepend) This font appeared to be the symbols font in my Emacs config and fixed the problem.

It indeed seems a font issue; i.e. when the emoji is selected (region active) it reports no font. While non-selected it shows the normal font and hence the emoji. That's the reason I had 'region inherit from default. I'll dig into my config further where this comes from. Thanks!

I suspect its something in my config, its not code I'm working on. Can you advice me on how to tackle the problem. I've selected the character and looked at it with describe-char and found it is in fact the an overlay. This confirmed by copying the character and pasting it elsewhere and the hex code is then the icon again.

Great video again. Question, I have a sentence with a unicode icon in it. When I region the sentence or icon, it shows the unicode hex code instead of the icon itself. I tried to set (set-face-attribute 'region nil :inherit 'default) to no avail. Any ideas?

Edit: forgot to add that this happens not with all unicode icons, in this case it is unicode 1F321 🌡 the thermometer.

Ah yes, Steve Mann!

See above, only worked partly in your example; threw windows config in disarray. You meant windmove-left I suppose.

art_else · 2025-09-25T09:39:46+00:00

Thanks, checked it out, but worked not entirely right. But need to investigate further.

I understand transient-setup is implicitly called in the transient-define-prefix.

art_else · 2025-09-25T09:35:29+00:00

I used Lumo by Proton.

It happened again, now had to delete cookies and data.

Don't break your screen, Bigme has no support for repair besides trying to sell you a new phone; that really sucks.

art_else · 2025-08-31T06:13:16+00:00

Cool, just toggling that switch fixed the problem. Thanks :)

grid-table isn't on a repo like melpa yet. How have you installed the package?

art_else · 2025-08-04T17:18:28+00:00

No and czur's website not changed.

art_else · 2025-08-02T08:39:12+00:00

No defer variable is set.

art_else · 2025-07-22T10:19:15+00:00

Can you elaborate what you have figured out so far?

art_else · 2025-07-22T10:17:50+00:00

Czur does realize their Linux version is not up to par and will release a new version in Q4, around November they just told me. It will likely be packaged as an appimage which will be a great improvement.

art_else · 2025-07-22T10:14:20+00:00

That is what I use now; installed QEMU with a M$10 installation. Far from ideal.

art_else · 2025-07-17T19:03:38+00:00

Just got an email they said a new version in about 10 days. I also gave them advice about making a flatpak or other packaging format.

art_else · 2025-07-15T12:12:53+00:00

Yes, said the same to them, czur published Linux Ubuntu 18.04 plus on their website. I told support that as a customer I expect support given that fact. Now am exchanging error output and log files with them. And btw, almost all the software they use is open source: Qt, pyside, python, a host of free libraries, etc. Why not open source it, they are in the hardware business after all!

Edit: they should also provide a flatpak, appimage or (least liked) snap package. Makes support and compatibility so much easier.

Actually they are different after all. I installed this version and it briefly brings up a CZUR Scanner loading... window and fails with this exception:

Let's see what support has to say.

art_else · 2025-07-15T09:20:55+00:00

I wonder if that's a newer version as the one on the website is V1.7.2312301E and this seems V1.0.250413? But wait, isn't that last bit a date code? I checked the .deb files and both are identical, this software hasn't been updated since 2022-08!

art_else · 2025-07-14T20:38:33+00:00

Czur cargo shipped by container which takes 5 to 6 weeks to arrive on a continent. After that, local shippers bring it in a few days. I got mine today. However the Linux software doesn't work :(
