If comment removal is disabled, LuaSrcDiet only removes trailing whitespace. Trailing whitespace is not removed in long strings, a warning is generated instead. If empty line removal is disabled, LuaSrcDiet keeps all significant code on the same lines. Thus, a user is able to debug using the original sources as a reference since the line numbering is unchanged.
String optimization deals mainly with optimizing escape sequences, but delimiters can be switched between single quotes and double quotes if the source size of the string can be reduced. For long strings and long comments, LuaSrcDiet also tries to reduce the '=' separators in the delimiters if possible. For number optimization, LuaSrcDiet saves space by trying to generate the shortest possible sequence, and in the process it does not produce 'proper' scientific notation (e.g. 1.23e5) but does away with the decimal point (e.g. 123e3) instead.
The local variable name optimizer uses a full parser of Lua 5.1 source
code, thus it can rename all local variables, including upvalues and
function parameters. It should handle the implicit self
parameter
gracefully. In addition, local variable names are either renamed into
the shortest possible names following English frequent letter usage or
are arranged by calculating entropy with the --opt-entropy option.
Variable names are reused whenever possible, reducing the number of
unique variable names. For example, for LuaSrcDiet.lua
(version
0.11.0), 683 local identifiers representing 88 unique names were
optimized into 32 unique names, all which are one character in length,
saving over 2600 bytes.
If you need some kind of reassurance that your app will still work at reduced size, see the section on verification below.
LuaSrcDiet myscript.lua -o myscript_.lua
On Windows machines, the above command line can be used on Cygwin, or you can run Lua with the LuaSrcDiet script like this:
lua LuaSrcDiet.lua myscript.lua -o myscript_.lua
When run without arguments, LuaSrcDiet prints a list of options. Also,
you can check the Makefile
for some examples of command lines to
use. For example, for maximum code size reduction and maximum verbosity,
use:
LuaSrcDiet --maximum --details myscript.lua -o myscript_.lua

Overall, the file size is reduced by more than 9KB. Tokens in the above report can be classified into 'real' or actual tokens, and 'fake' or whitespace tokens. The number of 'real' tokens remained the same. Short comments and long comments were completely eliminated. The number of line endings was reduced by 59, while all but 152 whitespace characters were optimized away. So, token separators (whitespace, including line endings) now takes up just 10% of the total file size. No optimization of number tokens was possible, while 2 bytes were saved for string tokens.
For local variable name optimization, the report shows that 38 unique local variable names were reduced to 20 unique names. The number of identifier tokens should stay the same (there is currently no optimization option to optimize away non-essential or unused 'real' tokens.) Since there can be at most 53 single-character identifiers, all local variables are now one character in length. Over 600 bytes was saved. --details will give a longer report and much more information.

The command line was:
lua LuaSrcDiet.lua LuaSrcDiet.lua -o app_experimental.lua --maximum --opt-experimental --noopt-srcequiv
The important thing to note is that while the binary chunks are equivalent, the source lexer streams are not equivalent. Hence, the --noopt-srcequiv makes LuaSrcDiet report a warning for failing the source equivalence test.
LuaSrcDiet.lua
was reduced from 157KB to about 41.3KB. The
--opt-experimental option saves an extra 205 bytes over standard
--maximum. Note the reduction in TK_OP
count due to a reduction
in semicolons and parentheses. TK_SPACE
has actually increased a bit
due to semicolons that are changed into single spaces; some of these
spaces could not be removed.

eLua
and nspire
, adding a verification step will
reduce risk for all users of LuaSrcDiet.
LuaSrcDiet performs two kinds of equivalence testing as of version 0.12.0. The two tests can be very, very loosely termed as source equivalence testing and binary equivalence testing. They are controlled by the --opt-srcequiv and --opt-binequiv options and are enabled by default.
Testing behaviour can be summarized as follows:
loadstring()
and string.dump()
and the results compared.
If your file passes this test, it means that a Lua 5.1.x binary should see the exact same token streams for both before and after files. That is, the parser in Lua will see the same lexer sequence coming from the source for both files and thus they should be equivalent. Touch wood. Heh.
However, if you are cross-compiling, it may be possible for this
test to fail. Experienced Lua developers can modify equiv.lua
to
handle such cases.
loadstring()
and string.dump()
to generate binary chunks of the entire before and after files.
Also, any shbang (#!
) lines are removed prior to generation of the
binary chunks.
The binary chunks are then run through a fake undump
routine to
verify the integrity of the binary chunks and to compare all parts that
ought to be identical.
On a per-function prototype basis (where ignored means that any difference between the two binary chunks is ignored):
linedefined
and lastlinedefined
.
This test may also cause problems if you are cross-compiling.
For sample files, see the samples
directory.
Currently implemented experimental optimizations are as follows:
For example, the following:
fish("cow")fish('cow')fish([[cow]])
is turned into:

Appendix J: Minimizing SVG File Sizes
This appendix is informative, not normative.
Considerable effort has been made to make SVG file sizes as
small as possible while still retaining the benefits of XML and
achieving compatibility and leverage with other W3C
specifications.
Here are some of the features in SVG that promote small file
sizes:
- SVG's path data definition was defined to produce a
compact data stream for vector graphics data: all commands
are one character in length; relative coordinates are
available; separator characters do not have to be supplied
when tokens can be identified implicitly; smooth curve
formulations are available (cubic Béziers, quadratic
Béziers and elliptical arcs) to prevent the need to
tesselate into polylines; and shortcut formulations exist for
common forms of cubic Bézier segments, quadratic
Bézier segments, and horizontal and vertical straight
line segments so that the minimum number of coordinates need
to be specified.
- Text can be specified using XML character data — no need
to convert to outlines.
- SVG contains a facility for defining symbols once and
referencing them multiple times using different visual
attributes and different sizing, positioning, clipping and
client-side filter effects
- User agents that support styling with CSS can
use CSS selectors and property inheritance to define commonly
used sets of attributes once as named styles.
- Filter effects allow for compelling visual results and
effects typically found only in image-authoring tools using
small amounts of vector and/or raster data
Additionally, HTTP/1.1 allows for compressed data to be
passed from server to client, which can result in significant
file size reduction. Here are some sample compression results
using gzip
compression on SVG documents [RFC1952]:
| Uncompressed
SVG | With gzip
compression | Compression
ratio |
|---|
| 12,912 | 2,463 | 81% |
| 12,164 | 2,553 | 79% |
| 11,613 | 2,617 | 77% |
| 18,689 | 4,077 | 78% |
| 13,024 | 2,041 | 84% |
A related issue is progressive rendering. Some SVG viewers
will support:
- the ability to display the first parts of an SVG document
fragments as the remainder of the document is downloaded from
the server; thus, the user will see part of the SVG drawing
right away and interact with it, even if the SVG file size is
large.
- delayed downloading of images and fonts. Just like some
HTML browsers, some SVG viewers will download images and
WebFonts
([CSS2], section 15.1)
last, substituting a temporary image and system fonts,
respectively, until the given image and/or font is
available.
Here are techniques for minimizing SVG file sizes and
minimizing the time before the user is able to start
interacting with the SVG document fragments:
- Construct the SVG file such that any links which the user
might want to click on are included at the beginning of the
SVG file
- Use default values whenever possible rather than defining
all attributes and properties explicitly.
- Take advantage of the path
data data compaction facilities: use relative
coordinates; use h and v for horizontal and
vertical lines; use s or t for cubic and
quadratic Bézier segments whenever possible; eliminate
extraneous white space and separators.
- Utilize symbols if the same graphic appears multiple
times in the document
- For user agents that support styling with CSS,
utilize CSS property inheritance and selectors to consolidate
commonly used properties into named styles or to assign the
properties to a parent ‘g’ element.
- Utilize filter effects to help construct graphics via
client-side graphics operations.

Start Sense tasks using Butler APIs
- 1: Start Sense tasks using REST API
- 2: Start Sense tasks from load script of Sense apps
- 3: Start Sense tasks using MQTT
1 - Start Sense tasks using REST API
Use Butler’s REST API to start Sense tasks
If the Butler config file is properly set up it’s possible to start Sense tasks by doing a PUT or POST call to /v4/reloadtask/{taskId}/start endpoint.
A great use case is to have upstream systems that feed Qlik Sense with data trigger a Sense task when new data is available.
That way Sense doesn’t have to poll for new data, with less system resources used in both upstream system and in Sense.
AND users get the new data as quickly as possible!
General principles
The API docs contain the best info for how the API works, a few things to keep in mind though:
- Butler will verify that all specified task IDs exist before trying to start them. Invalid task IDs will be reported in the http response.
- If the
allTaskIdsMustExist
URL parameter is set totrue
it means that all specified task IDs must be valid for any of them to be started.- Tasks associated with tags and custom properties are not affected by the
allTaskIdsMustExist
flag.
- Tasks associated with tags and custom properties are not affected by the
Requirements
These config file settings must be set up before Butler can use the REST API to start tasks:
- Configure Butler’s REST server:
- Butler.restServerConfig.enable: true
- Butler.restServerConfig.serverHost: <IP or hostname where Butler’s REST server is running>
- Butler.restServerConfig.serverPort:
- Butler.restServerConfig.backgroundServerPort:
- Enable the start task API endpoint
- Butler.restServerEndpointsEnable.senseStartTask: true
Seeing is believing
The video below is available at Ptarmigan Labs’ YouTube channel and also in the Butler playlist.
The video gives a quick demo of what calling the APIs can look like when using macOS.
There are many tools that can be used to call REST APIs.
Postman is cross platform and works in the browser, Paw is outstanding if you’re using macOS - and many others.
In the examples below we keep it simple and just use curl to call the API.
Note:
- This API requires an empty array to be passed in the body even when no tags, custom properties or similar are used.
- In the examples Butler is exposing its API on <IP_ADDRESS>:8080

- One invalid task ID was specified. This is the one in the URL - if needed it’s ok to provide a dummy task ID, as done here.
Start tasks using custom properties
A custom property taskGroup
available on reload tasks have the following possible values:
Here’s a call that will start all tasks that have the custom property taskGroup
set to either tasks1
or tasks2

}
➜ ~
The response tells us:
- 3 unique tasks were started.
- As the task “Reload task of App2” had both values set for the custom property, this task was started twice.
Sending parameters to apps
Sometimes there is a need to send parameters from outside of Sense to an app that should be reloaded.
This is supported by Butler as follows:
- Start a task and pass in one or more key-value pairs (=the parameters that should be sent to the app(s)) in the body of the call.
- Have the app being reloaded read the key-value pairs from within the load script, using the Butler APIs.
- Optional: Clear up (delete KV pairs or the namespace used) the key-value store when done.
Here a single task, identified by its ID in the URL, is started.
Two key-value pairs are passed along as parameters to the app. One has a TimeToLive of 10 seconds, the other has no TTL (=it will not be automatically deleted).
Task filtering is off, i.e. any task can be started using this API.

2 - Start Sense tasks from load script of Sense apps
Helper functions included
It is very much possible to call Butler’s REST API from the load script of Sense apps.
Create a REST connector in the Sense editor, configure it for the endpoint you want to call and use it from the load script.
This works but is tedious and quickly leads to lots of script code - especially if you need to make many calls to the Butler API.
To make things a bit easier the Butler GitHub repository includes a set of helper .qvs files.
These contain functions/subs that encapsulate various Butler APIs (include starting tasks) and make them easier to use.
Just include the butler_subs.qvs file from the GitHub release package and you get (among many other things) a helper function that’s called StartTask
.
Requirements for starting tasks via REST API
These config file settings must be set up before Butler can use the REST API to start tasks:
- Connection to Qlik Sense:
- Butler.configQRS.*
- Configure Butler’s REST server:
- Butler.restServerConfig.enable: true
- Butler.restServerConfig.serverHost: <IP or hostname where Butler’s REST server is running>
- Butler.restServerConfig.serverPort:
- Butler.restServerConfig.backgroundServerPort:
- Enable the start task API endpoint
- Butler.restServerEndpointsEnable.senseStartTask: true
- Sense data connections as described in the Getting started section.
Helper functions
There are two helper functions/sub for starting tasks:
StartTask(...)
is a generic function that can be called with a single task ID, or with complex combinations of task IDs, tags, custom properties and key-value pairs.StartTask_KeyValue(...)
makes it easy to start a single task and pass along one key-value pair as parameter. This function is essentially a specialized version of the more genericStartTask
sub.
Start a single task
The function(=sub in Sense lingo) StartTask
takes a single taskId
parameter, which means that starting a reload task from an app’s load script is as simple as
Call StartTask(<TaskId>)
The demo app Butler 8.4 demo app.qvf
(link) contains such a demo (and many others).
Need to pass along parameters to a task? There’s a Sub for that!
Sometimes you need to send parameters to a reload task (or rather to the load script of the app associated with the task).
This can be done by using the StartTask_KeyValue
helper function/Sub.
That Sub takes a taskId as parameter (similarly to its StartTask
sibling), but it also takes parameters for a full key-value pair:
Call StartTask_KeyValue('fbf645f0-0c92-40a4-af9a-6e3eb1d3c35c', 'MyNamespace', 'An important key', 'The value', 3000)
The parameters are
- The namespace to store the key-value pair in (required).
- The key (required).
- The value (required).
- An time-to-live valud in milliseconds (optional). When the ttl times out the key-value pair is automatically deleted.
Documentation about Butler’s key-value store is available here.
An example showing how task chaining with parameters can be done using key-values is found here.
Start several tasks using task IDs
If several tasks should be started using task IDs, those IDs need to be passed into the StartTask
sub.
This is done by storing the task IDs in a separate table whose name is passed as a parameter into StartTask
:
These tables can be called anything as long as
- They are qualified (i.e. keep the “Qualify *;” statement!).
- The table names are passed as parameters to the StartTask function.
- The table MUST have a field called
TaskId
that contains the IDs of reload tasks to be started.
Regarding parameters to StartTask:
- Trailing, unused parameters can be omitted.
- Unused parameters that are followed by used parameters should be set to Null().
Example 1
The script below will start tasks fbf645f0-0c92-40a4-af9a-6e3eb1d3c35c
(via the first parameter), 7552d9fc-d1bb-4975-9a38-18357de531ea
(via second parameter, i.e. a table) and fb0f317d-da91-4b86-aafa-0174ae1e8c8f
(via second parameter too).
Qualify *;
ButlerTaskIDs:
Load * Inline [
TaskId
7552d9fc-d1bb-4975-9a38-18357de531ea
fb0f317d-da91-4b86-aafa-0174ae1e8c8f
];
Call StartTask('fbf645f0-0c92-40a4-af9a-6e3eb1d3c35c', 'ButlerTaskIDs')
Unqualify *;
Example 2
Same as previous example, except that the first parameter is not used.
It must still be specified though! Set to Null()
to indicate it isn’t used.
The script below will thus start tasks 7552d9fc-d1bb-4975-9a38-18357de531ea
and fb0f317d-da91-4b86-aafa-0174ae1e8c8f
.
Qualify *;
ButlerTaskIDs:
Load * Inline [
TaskId
7552d9fc-d1bb-4975-9a38-18357de531ea
fb0f317d-da91-4b86-aafa-0174ae1e8c8f
];
Call StartTask(Null(), 'ButlerTaskIDs')
Unqualify *;
Start tasks using tags
Similar to how multiple tasks can be started using a table of task IDs (see above), tasks can also be started using a table containing tag names.
Example 1
The script below will start all reload tasks that have the startTask1
or startTask2
tag set.
Qualify *;
ButlerTags:
Load * Inline [
Tag
startTask1
startTask2
];
Call StartTask(, Null(), 'ButlerTags')
Unqualify *;
Start tasks using custom properties
Similar to how multiple tasks can be started using a table of task IDs (see above), tasks can also be started using a table containing custom property names and values.
Example 1
The script below will start all reload tasks that have the taskGroup
custom property set to a value of tasks1
.
Qualify *;
ButlerCustomProperties:
Load * Inline [
Name, Value
taskGroup, tasks1
];
Call StartTask(, Null(), Null(), 'ButlerKeyValues')
Unqualify *;

3 - Start Sense tasks using MQTT
Use MQTT to start Sense tasks
Butler can be configured to listen to a specific MQTT topic (specified in config file property Butler.mqttConfig.taskStartTopic
) and use any message received in that topic as a Sense task ID, which is then started.
For example:
- A Sense app, used by end users, relies on data in a source system that talks MQTT (there are lots of MQTT libraries available, covering most operating systems).
- The data in the source system can be updated at any time.
In order to update the Sense app with data the most common approach is to schedule reloads of the Qlik Sense app at certain intervals, i.e. polling the source system.
But if the source system instead posts a MQTT message on a well defined topic when new data is available, theat message will trigger the Sense app’s reload.
This way the Sense app will be updated as quickly as possible after new data is availabe in the source system.
I.e. the end user will have access to more up-to-date data, compared to the polling based solution.
Requirements for starting tasks via MQTT
These config file settings must be set up before Butler will use MQTT messages to start tasks:
- Connection to MQTT broker (=server):
- Butler.mqttConfig.enable: true
- Butler.mqttConfig.brokerHost:
- Butler.mqttConfig.brokerPort:
- MQTT topics that Butler should subscribe to
- Butler.mqttConfig.subscriptionRootTopic: <Root topic that Butler should subscribe to. Something like
qliksense/#
> - Butler.mqttConfig.taskStartTopic: <Topic used to start Sense tasks. MUST be a suptopic to the root topic above!>
- Butler.mqttConfig.subscriptionRootTopic: <Root topic that Butler should subscribe to. Something like
Seeing is believing

Snippets and Text Expansion
Boost your productivity by using snippets to save your frequently used text clips. Expand them automatically using a keyword or browse for the right clip in the Snippets Viewer.
The snippets and text expansion features are part of Alfred's Powerpack.
Do you frequently have to type your address, a block of text or website address? Typing them manually takes time, requires looking the same information up every time and leaves you with the possibility of making a typo error.
Saving your text clip as an Alfred snippet ensures that the next time you need it, it'll save you time and be as perfect as the first time you typed it.
Learn how to use snippets:
-
Creating your own snippets: Get started by creating a few of your own snippets from Clipboard History or from scratch.
-
Set up snippet auto-expansion: Set up auto-expansion in a few seconds, so that you can expand your snippets just like magic!
-
Using dynamic placeholders in snippets: Add a date, time, clipboard content and more with dynamic content. Use date arithmetic to paste in dates and times in the past or future.
-
Tips for better snippet expansion: A few tricks to help you set the best keywords for your snippets, so that they're easy to use, but aren't accidentally typed!
-
Browsing snippets: Using the snippets viewer is a handy way to view your snippets and collections.
-
Using the "snip" keyword: Type
snip
followed by your keyword to show your snippet in Alfred. -
Sharing your snippets: Export your snippets for sharing, and save a friend or colleague a lot of time too!
- Using Snippets to Trigger Workflow: Use a snippet in a workflow to trigger an action on your Mac by simply typing your text snippet.
Creating your own Snippets
There are two ways you can create your own snippets; In your Clipboard History Viewer or in Alfred's Snippets preferences.
If you're already using Alfred's Clipboard History and you've just copied something to your clipboard which you'd like to save for use later, pop up your Clipboard History Viewer and use the Cmd + S
hotkey to save the selected entry to your snippets.
Alternatively, in Alfred's Features > Snippets preferences, you can create snippets, as well as collections to group your snippets into.
Add new collections by clicking the + at the bottom of the Collection column, or a new snippet with the + at the bottom of the Snippets column.
You can also create rich text snippets. We recommend using plain text snippets in any case where you want the pasted text to match the destination format, and rich text when you want to force the formatting (e.g. setting the colours, fonts and links)
Find out more about creating and editing snippets.
Set a collection-wide affix for a consistent prefix or suffix to your snippets within the collection (e.g. prefix all snippet keywords with \\
). Learn more about collection-wide affixes.
Including Dynamic and Cursor Placeholders
You can add your own dynamic placeholders for {date}
, {time}
, {datetime}
and {clipboard}
content.
Dynamic Placeholder using built-in formats
- The date in long format:
{date:long}
- The time 10 minutes 30 seconds ago:
{time -10m -30s:long}
- The second item in your clipboard:
{clipboard:1}
(0 represents the latest item, 1 the next item down, and so on)
Take a look at the Dynamic Placeholders page to see the full range of formatting you can use, as there are many new ones in Alfred 4!
To tell Alfred where you'd like the cursor to move to, add {cursor}
to your snippet text.
Using Snippet Auto-Expansion
With auto-expansion, you can expand your snippets automatically in any app by typing the snippet's keyword, without popping up Alfred's Snippets window!
Snippet auto-expansion is disabled by default. To activate it, launch Alfred's preferences to Features > Snippets and check the box for "Automatically expand snippets by keyword". Follow the instructions, or take a look at the step-by-step guide to setting up auto-expansion for details.
Once you've activated, make sure you've set a keyword for your snippet, and checked the box to allow auto-expansion. To use the snippet, simply type the keyword you set into the app or text field you want. As if by magic, your keyword will be replaced will the full text snippet!
For your security, Alfred doesn't listen for characters typed when you are in a secure text field, such as a password field, so he won't expand a text snippet in a secure field.
Tips For Better Snippet Expansion
To get the most out of the expansion feature, your keywords need to be memorable but shouldn't be triggered by mistake. Here are some ideas to help you set useful snippet keywords.
- Use non-word keywords to avoid unexpected expansion; Don't use the keyword
date
to paste the date, otherwise every time you try to type it's a date!, you'll find yourself saying it's a 01/06/16! as your snippet auto-expands.- Start all your snippets with the same non-alphanumeric character, such as an exclamation mark, colon or semi-colon. (e.g.
!office
). Use collection-wide prefixes and suffixes to do this.- Use unusual capitalisation (Alfred will respect the capitalisation you set, e.g.
officE
)- Use double characters (e.g.
ttime
)
For more advanced Snippet Text Expansion setup, take a look at the options by clicking the cog in the top right of the Snippets preferences.
These options include:
- Apps in which snippets should not expand, and whether they should expand mid-string
- The ability to change or turn off the sound when expanding snippets
- Tweaking options to slow down key events (for slower Macs, or when using non-standard software) and more.
Browsing Snippets in the Viewer
If you can't remember your keyword, or you prefer to view a list of your keywords, you can do so by popping up Alfred's Snippets Viewer.
To pop up the Snippets Viewer, you can either set a hotkey for it in the Snippets preferences window, or you can pop up your Clipboard History Viewer with its hotkey and choose "All Snippets" at the top. You'll then be shown all your collections and individual snippets, which you can filter by typing part of the title or keyword for the snippet.
Using the "snip" Keyword
If you know the name or keyword for your snippet, you can get to it quickly by typing snip
into Alfred followed by either the name or keyword.
Sharing Your Snippets
If you need to share snippets between your own Macs, you can use Alfred's preferences syncing feature.
To share a Snippets collection, right-click the collection name in the left column and choose "Export". You'll then be able to share this file with friends and colleagues who are also using Alfred 3.

Denis Zakaria agent rules January move to Arsenal
The agent of Borussia Monchengladbach Denis Zakaria has ruled out a January switch to the Premier League.
by Darren PlantZakaria has played an instrumental part during the early months of the campaign, helping Monchengladbach to the top of the Bundesliga standings.
Despite the Switzerland international's form allegedly resulting in interest from the likes of Arsenal, Mathieu Beda has insisted that the 22-year-old will not contemplate departing the German side at the beginning of 2020.
Beda told Bild: "Denis will not leave Borussia in the winter, a change is 100 per cent excluded."
"Denis is in very good shape in Gladbach and has been playing really well for weeks, but he still has more potential and he wants to show that in Gladbach now instead of dealing with a change."
Zakaria has a contract at Monchengladbach until the end of 2021-22.

Video Tracks
Video Tracks are a function of HTML5 video for providing a selection of alternative video tracks to the user, so that they can change type of video they want to watch. Video.js makes video tracks work across all browsers. There are currently six types of tracks:
- Alternative: an alternative video representation of the main video track
- Captions: The main video track with burned in captions
- Main: the main video track
- Sign: the main video track with added sign language overlay
- Subtitles: the main video track with burned in subtitles
- Commentary: the main video track with burned in commentary
Missing Funtionality
- It is currently impossible to add VideoTracks in a non-programtic way
- Literal switching of VideoTracks for playback is not handled by video.js and must be handled by something else. video.js only stores the track representation
- There is currently no UI implementation of VideoTracks
Adding to Video.js
Right now adding video tracks in the HTML is unsupported. Video Tracks must be added programatically.
You must add video tracks programatically for the time being.
Attributes
Video Track propertites and settings
kind
One of the five track types listed above. Kind defaults to empty string if no kind is included, or an invalid kind is used.
label
The label for the track that will be show to the user, for example in a menu that list the different languages available for video tracks.
language
The two-letter code (valid BCP 47 language tag) for the language of the video track, for example "en" for English. A list of language codes is available here.
selected
If this track should be playing or not. Trying to select more than one track will cause other tracks to be deselected.
Interacting with Video Tracks
Doing something when a track becomes enabled
When a new track is enabled (other than the main track) an event is fired on the VideoTrackList
called change
you can listen to that event and do something with it.
Here's an example:
// get the current players VideoTrackList object
let tracks = player.videoTracks();
// listen to the change event
tracks.addEventListener('change', function() {
// get the currently selected track
let index = tracks.selectedIndex;
let track = tracks[index];
// print the currently selected track
console.log(track.label);
});
API
player.videoTracks() -> VideoTrackList
This is the main interface into the video tracks of the player.
It returns an VideoTrackList which is an array like object that contains all the VideoTrack
on the player.
player.videoTracks().addTrack(VideoTrack)
Add an existing VideoTrack to the players internal list of VideoTracks.
player.videoTracks().removeTrack(VideoTrack)
Remove a track from the VideoTrackList currently on the player. if no track exists this will do nothing.
player.videoTracks().selectedIndex
The current index for the selected track


All variants are currently called for the hg38 reference genome. If the variant in hg19 coordinates is not available, the conversion calculation was not successful.
To calculate the variant for hg19 coordinates, the hg38 position is converted to hg19 via an implementation of LiftOver. If the hg19 conversion is successful, the variant is then converted to HGSV format. If the HGSV conversion is also successful, the result will be displayed. Otherwise, only the hg38 coordinates for the variant will be displayed.

Charles, by the grace of God the king of the Franks and Lombards and the patrician of the Romans, to Abbot Baugulfus and his whole community, also to the faithful entrusted to you, and to our clerics, we direct amiable greetings in the name of almighty God.
Since, in recent years, several monasteries have often sent us letters, which show that the brothers living there are wont to strive for us in holy and pious speeches, we find both correct thoughts and uncouth expressions in many of these same afore-mentioned writings; for, whatever conscientious devotion one was faithfully stating innwardly, he could not manage to squeeze it out faultlessly in a poorly learned language. And from this it happened that we began to fear that perhaps, since there was little skill in writing, there might also be less skill than would be needed in understanding the wisdom of the holy scripture. And we all well know that, although errors of words are dangerous, errors of thought are much more dangerous.
Therefore we urge you not only to not neglect the study of letters, but truly to also eagerly gain a concentration that is so humble and pleasing to God for this purpose, to more easily and correctly succeed in penetrating the mysteries of sacred scriptures. And when figures of speech, tropes and other such things are found inserted into these sacred pages, there is no doubt that each man reading them, understands them much more rapidly, in the spiritual sense, than he might have done before he was trained in the mastery of letters.
Indeed, let the men who are chosen for this work be such that they will acquire both purpose and ability, and let them have the desire to teach other men. And let this only be done with the same purpose as the earnestness is taught by us.
For, as is fitting for soldiers of the church, we choose you, who are both more devoted in spirit and better trained and virtuous in discourse for living well and schooled in speaking, so that whoever wishes to see you on account of the name of the Lord and your reputation of holy conduct, just as his sight is edified by your appearance, so also by your wisdom, which he gains in reading or recitation, instructed by the almighty Lord, and goes away giving thanks and rejoicing.
And so, take care that you not neglect to have copies of this letter directed to all assistants and fellow-bishops and through all the monasteries, if you wish to have our goodwill.

the edge cases are at the beginning, the registration needs to be confirmed before the first keystrokes and at the end, the last one or two keystrokes needs to confirm before extract
i think if those two edge cases are handled, then we might have reliable replays
At the moment in TUI game starting only after registration is confirmed, At the end it's waiting just for one block for default but user can wait as many blocks as he want if extract result not satisfy him


| Opcode | Instruction | 64-Bit Mode | Compat/Leg Mode | Description |
| D9 F2 | FPTAN | Valid | Valid | Replace ST(0) with its tangent and push 1 onto the FPU stack. |
Computes the tangent of the source operand in register ST(0), stores the result in ST(0), and pushes a 1.0 onto the FPU register stack. The source operand must be given in radians and must be less than ±263. The following table shows the unmasked results obtained when computing the partial tangent of various classes of numbers, assuming that underflow does not occur.
| ST(0) SRC − ∞ | ST(0) DEST |
| − F | − F to + F |
| − 0 | -0 |
| + 0 | +0 |
| + F + ∞ | − F to + F |
| NaN | NaN |
Notes: F Means finite floating-point value. * Indicates floating-point invalid-arithmetic-operand (#IA) exception.
If the source operand is outside the acceptable range, the C2 flag in the FPU status word is set, and the value in register ST(0) remains unchanged. The instruction does not raise an exception when the source operand is out of range. It is up to the program to check the C2 flag for out-of-range conditions. Source values outside the range −263 to +263 can be reduced to the range of the instruction by subtracting an appropriate integer multiple of 2π or by using the FPREM instruction with a divisor of 2π. See the section titled “Pi” in Chapter 8 of the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 1, for a discussion of the proper value to use for π in performing such reductions.
The value 1.0 is pushed onto the register stack after the tangent has been computed to maintain compatibility with the Intel 8087 and Intel287 math coprocessors. This operation also simplifies the calculation of other trigonometric functions. For instance, the cotangent (which is the reciprocal of the tangent) can be computed by executing a FDIVR instruction after the FPTAN instruction.
This instruction’s operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode.
IF ST(0) < 263 THEN C2 ← 0; ST(0) ← tan(ST(0)); TOP ← TOP − 1; ST(0) ← 1.0; ELSE (* Source operand is out-of-range *) C2 ← 1; FI;
| C1 | Set to 0 if stack underflow occurred; set to 1 if stack overflow occurred. Set if result was rounded up; cleared otherwise. |
| C2 | Set to 1 if outside range (−263 < source operand < +263); otherwise, set to 0. |
| C0, C3 | Undefined. |
| #IS | Stack underflow or overflow occurred. |
| #IA | Source operand is an SNaN value, ∞, or unsupported format. |
| #D | Source operand is a denormal value. |
| #U | Result is too small for destination format. |
| #P | Value cannot be represented exactly in destination format. |
| #NM | CR0.EM[bit 2] or CR0.TS[bit 3] = 1. |
| #MF | If there is a pending x87 FPU exception. |
| #UD | If the LOCK prefix is used. |

This is a W3C Note produced as a deliverable of the XML Linking WG according to its charter and Published as a W3C NOTE February 23 1999. A list of current W3C working drafts and notes can be found at http://www.w3.org/TR.
This document was originally a portion of the XPointer Requirements document. It was separated out by decision of the XML Linking WG taken at the meeting of November 21-22, 1998 in Chicago, to become a liaison statement to the XML Information Set Working Group.
Comments on this document should be sent to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>XPointer Requirements, produced by the XML Linking Working Group. This document provides requirements governing the work of this WG on the XPointer specification.
XML Pointer Language (XPointer) Working Draft, prior WDs produced by the former XML Working Group, and now under the XML Linking WG. Provides a simple yet powerful mechanism for addressing data portions in XML documents. It is very closely based on a multiply-implemented and widely-used technology, extended pointers, defined by the Text Encoding Initiative.
XLink Requirements, produced by the XML Linking Working Group. This document provides requirements governing the work of this WG on the XLink specification.
XML Linking Language (XLink) Working Draft, prior WDs produced by the former XML Working Group, and now under the XML Linking WG.
XML Linking Language (XLink) Design Principles, produced by the former XML Working Group, and now under the XML Linking WG. This document provides general design principles governing the work of this WG, involving both the XLink and XPointer specifications.
This document is a liaison statement from XML Linking Working Group to the XML Information Set working group. Because the XPointer specification under development in the XML Linking WG must refer to structural parts of XML documents, the structure it addresses must be explicit. Document structure specifications such as DOM and the XML Information Set may wish to consider the XPointer requirements in order to insure interoperability when used with XPointer and XLink. Thus we have set out in this document, some constraints we believe XPointer has, for its use with a system representing XML information structures.
The abstract information structure of an XML document defines the components that links address into using XPointers. This structure must be explicit and unambiguous for XPointer to work, because:
Otherwise an XPointer would be ambiguous: two conforming implementations could interpret the same XPointer as pointing to two different places. Questions as simple as "What is the element with id='foo'?" (is id a name or a type?), and "Which node is the third child of this other node?" (do PIs count?) would become unanswerable.
Otherwise XPointers could not achieve robustness even against trivial, non-structural changes in syntax (such as inserting spaces around "=" in start-tags). Such robustness is highly desirable, especially when XML is generated automatically or dynamically. It would be very bad if XPointers could be broken by such semantically insignificant changes, and far worse if they could make XPointers quietly point to different places.
Given this, some requirements on that abstract structure tree representation are laid out below. Merely to have a term in this document, we refer to any XML information representation as a Virtual Abstract Structure Tree, or "VAST". We choose such a generic term to prevent tieing these constraints to any particular model, API, or implementation. These requirements should be considered liaison information for DOM and especially for the XML Information Set WG, but are not intended to constrain the details of any API or implementation, beyond the need to somehow support the aspects of functionality needed by XPointer.
An information structure to support XPointer (call it "VAST" for the moment) must represent elements, attributes, characters, PIs, and unparsed entities. The treatment of comments is still under consideration by the XML Linking WG.
All these things might be needed link targets for someone. Although an end user may only rarely want to link to a PI or comment, there is no principled reason they should not, and there are real cases already where crucial information (such as scripts) is buried in comments. User annotations in document authoring and review applications must be able to point to all these things in order to comment on them. Also, XPointer is not only for end-user navigation links. Programs can use it to represent internal connections; in such scenarios they certainly may want to refer to a particular processing instruction to attach further data to it, connect it to workflow, version control, or other meta-information, and so on. In short, any structure XML defines is a real object in XML documents, and needs to be supported; syntax details such as whitespace within start-tags are on quite a different level from whole events such as PIs.
A VAST must represent all the containment and order relations among the nodes that constitute information.
For example, the order of paragraphs in a section is normally information, but the order of attributes in a tag is not. An unordered model, such as one that would require retrieving all children of a node and then sorting by an internal field in order to get them in order, or one that would require visiting all descendants in order to reach a sibling, is unacceptable (though such an implementation need not conflict with this conceptual model at all).
A VAST must be able to represent documents in which there are multiple nodes surrounding the document root element (comments, PI, DOCTYPE, etc).
This is commonly done by positing a reserved true-root node as parent of the document element, which thus contains all this stuff. This is natural because most of the same methods are meaningful for this node as for any other. However, many other implementations and interfaces are possible.
The same structure must be generated regardless of whether the parser was WF or validating.
This is critical for XPointer, because otherwise links couldn't be reliably followed when the link-maker and link-user happened to use different kinds of parsers. For invalid documents, of course, a validating parser will stop parsing and therefore result in a radically different VAST, or no VAST at all; but for valid documents the VASTs must be the same.
The XML Linking WG realizes there are considerable difficulties with completely fulfilling this requirement. We do not see default attributes as the crucial aspect, since they may be relatively unlikely to be referenced by Xpointers; more important are distinction of child-counting, that would throw off geometric pointing into element structure trees, on which we depend for certain aspects of addressing.
[Implementor note: Since attributes may receive default values based on declarations in the internal subset, these must be supported by WF systems that are to fully support XPointer.]
A VAST must distinguish the element/attribute relationship from the element/subelement relationship. That is, attributes are 'owned' (or some other term), not 'children'; thus they do not confuse traversals, child counting for linking, etc.
A VAST must include all whitespace in content from the parser.
As with attribute internals, a WF parser cannot determine which whitespace is insignificant, and so interoperability of XPointers appears to require this.
A VAST must permit efficient implementations for reaching a complete resource given a sub-resource of it, and for reaching intermediate-scope nodes between the two.
For example, if a link results in references to one or more P elements, it is usually not user-useful to retrieve the individual P elements in isolation, and be unable to display them in context. The interpretation of text requires context. There are certain scenarios where information portions out of context suffice but in far more scenarios context is required. For example:
In nearly all style languages, even a P element cannot be formatted correctly without knowing where it lives in the larger tree context, due to style inheritance, auto-numbering algorithms, and so on.
In many applications the user must be able to move up or down to read the preceding and following contexts, or to identify the current node in a more global view such as a table of contents.
Intellectual property issues may impose requirements that information be displayed with certain context. One obvious piece of contextual information is a copyright notice on the document out of which the linked data is drawn.
In general, the content one gets by discarding markup is not the correct text; this is because some tags imply a word-break (ITEM) and some do not (I); some tags imply much more, such as a digression to a completely different text (FOOTNOTE). So returning "the content" may simply produce the wrong result.
XPointer's abstract structural requirements must permit varying implementations of how children are attached to parents, how attributes are attached to element nodes, and so on, but need not closely mirror any of them.
[Implementor note: There are many well-known and efficient data structures for representing structure trees: arrays of children at each node, doubly-linked sibling lists, threaded arrays, and so on. Any are fine so long as they provide the necessary context access.]
Characters must be accessible just as other nodes are.
This is critical for XPointer because it is extremely common to point to characters, especially with the ever-popular "select/create link" interfaces.
If characters could not be treated as easily as other nodes, the XPointer definition would have to become more complicated. It could not simply state that the result of evaluating an XPointer is just a node, or a list of nodes or locations, or even a list of start/end pairs. Instead, a pointer to a character would have to consist of 3 things together: some pointer to a nearby node (say, the one to the right, or the parent), plus a bit to say that this time it's pointing to a character associated with that node instead of to the node itself, plus something to say which associated character. For example,
Node 378 (say, a P node)
Text preceding node 378, character 12
Note: This obviously does not constrain how particular implementations allocate or arrange their internal data structures. But XPointer needs to be able to access and count positions without regard to how particular implementations may or may not "chunk" things. Propogating such distinctions into XPointer would hugely complicate implementations. Accessing and counting characters without concern for possible intermediate text-chunk nodes is the conceptual model needed by XPointer, though we fully understand that using some form of strings or chunks may often be the best implementation approach. Our constraints are specified in terms of a conceptual model for determining how things are counted, and so use characters. So long as we can do that, we are not concerned about the underlying implementation method(s), from storing internal text nodes, to forwarding-pointer-enhanced linked lists, to indexed arrays; these could all present things consistent with the way our abstract model counts.]
A VAST need not represent the internal structure of attributes (such as tokenization).
One reason for this is that it follows from the requirement that WF and validating parsers provide the same tree: since WF parsers do not in general know whether an attribute is NMTOKENS or CDATA, they cannot determine what the internal structure is.
Also, since schemas will likely provide internal structuring capability for attribute values, anything put in now for this will be soon obsolete. Applications can interpret attributes however they want (such as interpreting them as quantities and doing math on them). However, we do know that attributes will continue to be strings, and will not contain true elements or other nodes, so we can leave them at that for now.
A VAST need not represent DTD structures at this time.
If schema efforts using XML syntax are successful, then VAST can clearly be used for DTDs. If not, an abstract representation of DTDs can be added in a later revision. The abstract tree, however, must be able to represent the DOCTYPE reference to a DTD, so the DTD can be found by any applicable process.
[Implementor note: The effect of attribute defaults declared in the internal subset is represented, but the VAST need not include a representation of the declarations that created that effect.
A VAST may, but need not for XPointer, provide information about CDATA marked sections and entity boundaries. It must, however, easily provide a view without this information.
If such information is included in an implementation, there must still be access to a simpler view in an extremely simple, fast way, equivalent to mere deletion of nodes from the more complex view: no re-parenting, reordering, promotion, demotion, or merging of other node, etc. This is so that node counting and traversal will not be adversely affected by whether the user is in an application that requires such information for other legitimate purposes, such as editing.
As always, any of the countless possible implementations that can provide these external requirements is fine; the requirement for XPointer is that its task not be made unduly costly or painful because in consequence.
[Implementor note: One way to do this is to define "raw" and "cooked" views, where the raw view includes the extra nodes. Editors and some other applications would probably need the full raw information internally, but XPointer and some other applications can be defined strictly in terms of the (subset) cooked view. This is crucial because only a cooked view can be guaranteed identical across applications whether or not they support raw views.]
A VAST need not directly represent derived relationships such as the connection between IDREFs and the like-keyed ID, or the relationship between all elements with the same element type, so long as it does not make it impossible to associate such information in other ways.
For example, the conceptual model does not impose any requirement that implementations embed hard pointers to resolve all IDREFs, as opposed to building some other method to get from an IDREF to the corresponding ID. Strictly speaking, such information is semantic rather than purely syntactic: XML syntax determines a tree; semantic relationships (the most obvious example being IDREFs) may determine arbitrarily more complex structures (this is also clear from the fact that such semantic information cannot affect well-formedness).
[Implementor note: Putting such information directly into a VAST would pose several problems:
It would add great complexity to the specification, and would introduce subtle questions about just which derived relationships to represent (for example, should attributes containing XPointers be connected just as IDREF attributes are?).
It could mislead implementors to believe they must implement such relationships via direct pointers in the VAST, when we know that differing implementations have proven useful in established applications with varying user requirements (separate ID indexes, serial search, hard internal pointers, etc.).
A VAST that included such relationships on par with the primary syntactic element/sub-element structure would not be a tree. It would not even be a directed acyclic graph, but would be a fully general cyclic graph structure. Cyclic graphs are far more sophisticated and subtle to deal with, and many implementors are not familiar with them. Even such an everyday task as traversing the structure is hard (and is often done by creating a subset of the graph that is a tree, and traversing that "spanning tree" -- see Liu 1977). Many operations, such as order comparisons, traversals, import/export, and so on, are far easier to define on a tree.
Such relationships clearly exist, and can be handled just fine (many systems have done so for a long time); indeed representing them is much of the purpose of XPointer. Problems only arise from describing them as on par with the basic syntactic node relationships of the defining structural model. Doing so would complicate implementing and teaching the model:
On the one hand, structure trees have repeatedly proven easy to teach and to motivate. Describing the element/text tree is easy; adding PIs and comments is easy from there; and describing attributes as properties rather than children still leaves the structure a tree, and is not difficult. Perhaps this ease of teaching is because this model fits the HTML and XML overall models so clearly.
On the other hand, we know from many attempts that drawing all the other (semantic) relationships on top of the tree structure obscures it. When told the conceptual structure isn't "really" a tree, less-technical users' eyes quickly glaze over, while implementors are quickly tempted to discard well-known and extremely efficient algorithms that they know apply only to trees.
[Note: Most implementations of trees are not themselves trees anyway. One of many examples is a useful representation of n-ary trees (mentioned in Knuth 1973) that uses a doubly-linked list of children for each node. Obviously this is not a tree if you "count" all those back-links; but what defines a data structure as a tree representation is its conceptual topology, not its implementation. Knuth's formal definition is simply:
a finite set T of one or more nodes such that
a) There is one specially designated node called the root of the tree, root(T); and
b) The remaining nodes (excluding the root) are partitioned into m>=0 disjoint sets T1,..., Tm, and each of these sets in turn is a tree. The trees T1,..., Tm are called the subtrees of the root.
In simpler terms, this just means that as long as there is a root with no parent and every other node has one parent, it's a tree. It quite simply doesn't matter how many other pointers, links, arcs, or whatever else you have floating around, as long as each node but the root has exactly one connection that you call "parent". ]

'3BlackChicks Review...'
ON THE TOWN (1949) Not Rated; running time 98 minutes Genre: Musical IMDB site: http://us.imdb.com/Details?0041716 Written by: Adolph Green, Betty Comden (based on the Broadway play) Directed by: Stanley Donen, Gene Kelly Music by: Leonard Bernstein, Roger Edens Choreography by: Gene Kelly Cast: Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Betty Garrett, Ann Miller, Jules Munshin, Vera-Ellen, Alice Pearce, Bern Hoffman DVD standard features: "Pan And Scan" (non-widescreen); scene access; Languages & Subtitles: English, French DVD special features: theatrical trailer; cast & crew notes
Review Copyright Rose Cooper, 2001 Review URL: http://www.3blackchicks.com/bamsonthetown.html
I have to admit, I've been fooled all these years. Here I've been, in all my naivete, believing that all the gobs and dames in these 40's musicals wanted, was a chance to get a few chaste smooches in before they fell in love with the gob/dame of their dreams.
Then a hot hoochiemama by the name of Betty Garrett changed all that for me.
The Story (WARNING: **spoilers contained below**): Small town Navy boys Gabey (Gene Kelly), Chip (Frank Sinatra), and Ozzie (Jules Munshin) have a 24-hour pass in New York, and are out to see the sights. Sights like Ivy Smith (Vera-Ellen), Hilde Esterhazy (Betty Garrett), and Claire Huddesen (Ann Miller) will do just fine, thankyewverramuch.
Okay, okay...when the boys see a poster for Miss Turnstiles, aka Ivy Smith, Gabey is enchanted and sets out to meet the famous (or so he thinks) Miss Turnstiles to ask her out on a date that night. "In a city of four million women", he actually *does* find Ivy, then loses her, then finds her again, then...well, you get the picture. Chip and Ozzie have their hands full, too: Ozzie pursues Claire, an anthropologist who'd like to study *his* bones...and Chip finds himself being pursued by Mae West's little sister, Hildy.
The Upshot: On the surface, ON THE TOWN doesn't seem all that deep - just another Boy Gets Shore Leave Boy Looks For A Hookup Boy Meets Girl Boy Falls For Girl The End kinda flick - but there's more to "OTT" than meets the eye. Besides its Oscar-winning musical score, "OTT" broke new ground as the first musical to be filmed partially on location; and the difference shows. The opening scenes establish a great, realistic look at New York from a tourist's eyes (and from a historical point of view, makes one marvel at how much the NYC skyline has changed over the years). I also liked the use of the "clock" to countdown the hours left for the Navy boys, a technique used better, and more sparingly, here than in some modern-day films.
But for me, the kicker in this movie was Betty Garrett as the lusty Brunhilde Esterhazy. To be sure, Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra continued their charming ANCHORS AWEIGH ways, and for the first time since AN AMERICAN IN PARIS, I haven't wanted to pop Kelly's Girl upside the head; I found Vera-Ellen quite pleasing here, and I loved her voice. The Comic Relief - Jules Munshin as fifth-wheel Ozzie, Ann Miller as his girl Claire, and especially Alice Pearce as the Hilde's lonelyhearts roommate Lucy Shmeeler - were also good in their supporting roles. But Garrett added some sho'nuff serious spice to this tale, to the point where I was wondering if they'd have a scene with Hilde and Chip crawling out of a Navy locker a la STRIPES. woolaud.
I suppose I could overanalyze many of the plot points of this and other typical 40's musicals, from a 00's point of view. I could discuss the Peter Pan syndrome many of Kelly's characters seem to exhibit, dish on how Sinatra's skinny-boy-Guys often got smacked around by Dolls, cogitate on the whys and wherefores of all the various and sundry floosies that inundated these musicals, yada yada blah blah blah. But where's the fun in that? Besides, in a time where we are oversaturated with talk show hosts, therapists, and thespians creating a societal hodgepodge of dysfunctions for us to wallow in
[aww SOMEbody oughta give me an AMEN]
I said, in a time where we are oversaturated with talk show hosts, therapists, and thespians creating a societal hodgepodge of dysfunctions for us to wallow in, I don't at all mind looking back at a time when an announcer breathlessly exclaiming that this movie was "twice as gay as ANCHORS AWEIGH!", wouldn't be cause for a riot.
The Numbers: A few of the numbers in ON THE TOWN rank up there with my all-time musicals favorites:
"Prelude" This number's not actually listed, and the person that's featured isn't credited - but Bern Hoffman as the sleepy dock worker singin' the early mornin' blues, was a great way to segue to...
"New York, New York" It's most def a helluva town. The sailors sing the praises of New York, their eyes filled with it. A great number, made moreso by the location shots; it wouldn't have been the same on a set.
"Miss Turnstiles" Though I liked the similar I'm Every Woman dance in "Paris" better, I did like the acrobatic male dancers in this number; good choreography by Kelly once again.
"Prehistoric Man" Ugh. The less said, the better.
"Come Up To My Place" Excellent number, both in phrasing and in setting words into action. As I alluded to above, I was left with no doubt in my mind what Hilde planned for Chip up in her place. My boy gonna get wo' out...
"On The Town" I can't praise this number enough; featuring the entire sextet, I finally had to have someone take the DVD remote away from me so I'd stop "rewinding" the disc back to the beginning of this track.
"Count On Me" Nice comedic ensemble piece; even Miss Lonelyhearts got in on the action.
"A Day In New York" This Kelly-standard tell-the-story-in-ballet number doesn't have the polish of his better, later works, but I liked the beautiful, swelling music, and co-director Kelly's use of light and shadow.
I am so glad I grew up with an appreciation for musicals; Gene Kelly definitely expressed himself best when he danced, and I'm glad I got a chance to witness it, even if only after the fact.
DVD Thingies: Having already seen the ON THE TOWN theatrical trailer during ANCHORS AWEIGH, I was less impressed by its inclusion in this DVD, especially because "OTT" lacked a couple other extras that "Anchors" had. But I was impressed by the mood-inducing dock sounds in the "OTT" menu. What can I say; I'm easily amused.
Bammer's Bottom Line: If nothing else, ON THE TOWN finally convinced me that Sex existed in the movies long before they had a rating for it (and an MPAA against it). Back then, they were just more subtle about it than the current batch of cinema artistes. I can diggit.
ON THE TOWN: (rating: greenlight): The team of Kelly and Sinatra are two for two with ANCHORS AWEIGH and ON THE TOWN; next up-at-bat: TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME.

These classes are designed to be used while the
corresponding LookAndFeel
class has been
installed
(UIManager.setLookAndFeel(new XXXLookAndFeel())
).
Using them while a different LookAndFeel
is installed
may produce unexpected results, including exceptions.
Additionally, changing the LookAndFeel
maintained by the UIManager
without updating the
corresponding ComponentUI
of any
JComponent
s may also produce unexpected results,
such as the wrong colors showing up, and is generally not
encouraged.

The -fuzz command works to anonymize numeric values.
The num_random_digits is used to generate a number with those random digits.
If the num_places argument is <= zero then that is the number of decimal places the number is rounded to. If there are fewer than num_places decimals than those decimals are converted to "0". The randomized digits are then appended to the number. For example with R = random digit: seesv:seesv -fuzz -2 3 Gives:
12345.6789 -> 12345.67RR 145.678 -> 145.67RR 9.0 -> 9.RR
If num_places > 0 then the number is converted to an integer and the num_places least significant digits are converted to 0. If the number of digits is < num_places then the number is converted to 0. The randomized digits are then addedto the number. For example with R = random digit: seesv:seesv -fuzz 2 3 Gives:
12345.678 -> 123RR 145.678 -> 1RR 1.678 -> RR
