Bought this book today. Despite the lack of CDROM I’m still disappointed. I originally tried to buy this on Amazon. It was declined. I cannot but help think Daniel Flannagen has something to do with this. I’ve been interested in this book for some time. The fact the CDROM is missing is frustrating. If anyone can help locate it I’m grateful. #motif #xlib

Today I discovered Mathpolate, which has a graphpaper generator for asymetric graph paper — https://mathpolate.com/graph/asymmetric

If you #knit, this can be very helpful! You can print graph paper which matches your gauge.

Si vous #tricot ez, c'est très utile! Vous pouvez imprimer du papier graphique qui correspond à votre jauge.

FreeBSD 15 + CDE is probably the closest you can get to sitting in front of a high-end UNIX workstation without owning a time machine. Running Common Desktop Environment in 2026 feels strangely refreshing. No blur effects, no Electron, no notifications fighting for attention, No ai written code, just Motif, terminals, man pages, and a desktop paradigm that was already mature before I was born. Current setup: • FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE • CDE • dtwm • bhyve • Motif everywhere Today’s activity: reading bhyve(4) manuals and pretending I'm a UNIX admin in 1996. #FreeBSD #BSD #CDE #Unix #Motif #bhyve #OpenSource #UnixPorn #RetroComputing #FOSS
