Mastering the art of table construction in LaTeX is therefore necessary to produce quality papers and with sufficient practice one can print beautiful tables of any kind. Keeping in mind that LaTeX is not a spreadsheet; it makes sense to use a dedicated tool to build tables and then to export these tables into the document. Basic tables are not too taxing, but anything more advanced can take a fair bit of construction; in these cases, more advanced packages can be very useful. However, first it is important to know the basics. Once you are comfortable with basic LaTeX tables, you might have a look at more advanced packages or the [[#Using spreadsheets and data analysis tools|export options of your favorite spreadsheet]]. Thanks to the modular nature of LaTeX, the whole process can be automated in a fairly comfortable way. == Introduction == LaTeX has built-in support to typeset tables and provides two environments: {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} and {{LaTeX/Environment|table}}. To typeset material in rows and columns, the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment is needed; the optional {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment is a container for floating material similar to {{LaTeX/Environment|figure}}, into which a {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment may be included. The {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment contains the caption and defines the float for the table, i.e., where in the document the table should be positioned and whether we want it to be displayed centered. The {{LaTeX/Inline|code=\caption}} and {{LaTeX/Inline|code=\label}} commands can be used in the same way as for pictures. For more information about the {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment, see the [[#Floating with table|Floating with ''table'']] section. In any case, the actual content of the table is contained within the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment. == The ''tabular'' environment == The {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment can be used to typeset tables with optional horizontal and vertical lines. LaTeX determines the width of the columns automatically. The first line of the environment has the form: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}[pos]{table spec} }} The {{LaTeX/Parameter|table spec}} argument tells LaTeX the alignment to be used in each column and the vertical lines to insert. The number of columns does not need to be specified as it is inferred by looking at the number of arguments provided. It is also possible to add vertical lines between the columns here. The following symbols are available to describe the table columns (some of them require that the package {{LaTeX/Package|array}} has been loaded): {| class="wikitable" | {{LaTeX/Parameter|l}} | left-justified column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|c}} | centered column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|r}} | right-justified column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|p{'width'}<!---->}} | paragraph column with text vertically aligned at the top |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|m{'width'}<!---->}} | paragraph column with text vertically aligned in the middle (requires array package) |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|b{'width'}<!---->}} | paragraph column with text vertically aligned at the bottom (requires array package) |- | <code><nowiki>|</nowiki></code> | vertical line |- | <code><nowiki>||</nowiki></code> | double vertical line |} By default, if the text in a column is too wide for the page, LaTeX won’t automatically wrap it. Using {{LaTeX/Parameter|p{'width'}<!---->}} you can define a special type of column which will wrap-around the text as in a normal paragraph. You can pass the width using any unit supported by LaTeX, such as 'pt' and 'cm', or ''command lengths'', such as {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\textwidth<!---->}}. You can find a list in chapter [[LaTeX/Lengths|Lengths]]. The optional parameter {{LaTeX/Parameter|pos}} can be used to specify the vertical position of the table relative to the baseline of the surrounding text. In most cases, you will not need this option. It becomes relevant only if your table is not in a paragraph of its own. You can use the following letters: {| class="wikitable" |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}} | bottom |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|c}} | center (default) |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|t}} | top |- |} To specify a font format (such as bold, italic, etc.) for an entire column, you can add {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\format}<!---->}} before you declare the alignment. For example {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\begin{tabular}{ >{\bfseries}l c >{\itshape}r }<!---->}} will indicate a three column table with the first one aligned to the left and in bold font, the second one aligned in the center and with normal font, and the third aligned to the right and in italic. The "array" package needs to be activated in the preamble for this to work. In the first line you have pointed out how many columns you want, their alignment and the vertical lines to separate them. Once in the environment, you have to introduce the text you want, separating between cells and introducing new lines. The commands you have to use are the following: {| class="wikitable" | {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=&<!---->}} | column separator |- | {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\\<!---->}} | start new row (additional space may be specified after {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\\<!---->}} using square brackets, such as {{LaTeX/Parameter|\\[6pt]}}) |- | {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\hline<!---->}} | horizontal line |- | {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\newline<!---->}} | start a new line within a cell (in a paragraph column) |- | {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\cline{i-j}<!---->}} | partial horizontal line beginning in column ''i'' and ending in column ''j'' |} Note, any white space inserted between these commands is purely down to one's preferences. I personally add spaces between to make it easier to read. === Basic examples === This example shows how to create a simple table in LaTeX. It is a three-by-three table, but without any lines. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ l c r } 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \end{tabular} |render= <math>\begin{array}{lcr} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \end{array}</math> }} Expanding upon that by including some vertical lines: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ l {{!}} c {{!}} r } 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \end{tabular} |render= <math>\begin{array}{l|c||r} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \end{array}</math> }} To add horizontal lines to the very top and bottom edges of the table: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ l {{!}} c {{!}} r } \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= <math>\begin{array}{l|c||r}\hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{array}</math> }} And finally, to add lines between all rows, as well as centering (notice the use of the center environment - of course, the result of this is not obvious from the preview on this web page): {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ l {{!}} c {{!}} r } \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} |render= <math>\begin{array}{l|c||r}\hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{array}</math> }} {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ {{!}} l {{!}} c {{!}} r } \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} |render= <math>\begin{array}{|l||c|||r}\hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{array}</math> }} {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{{{!}}r{{!}}l{{!}}} \hline 7C0 & hexadecimal \\ 3700 & octal \\ \cline{2-2} 11111000000 & binary \\ \hline \hline 1984 & decimal \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Latex example tabular cline.svg|250px]]}} }} === Text wrapping in tables === LaTeX's algorithms for formatting tables have a few shortcomings. One is that it will not automatically wrap text in cells, even if it overruns the width of the page. For columns that will contain text whose length exceeds the column's desired width, it is recommended that you use the {{LaTeX/Parameter|p}} attribute and specify the desired width of the column (although it may take some trial-and-error to get the result you want). For a more convenient method, have a look at [[#The tabularx package|The tabularx package]], or [[#The tabulary package|The tabulary package]]. Instead of {{LaTeX/Parameter|p}}, use the {{LaTeX/Parameter|m}} attribute to have the lines aligned toward the middle of the box or the {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}} attribute to align along the bottom of the box. Here is a simple example. The following code creates two tables with the same code; the only difference is that the last column of the second one has a defined width of 5 centimeters, while in the first one we didn't specify any width. Compiling this code: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \documentclass{article} \usepackage[english]{babel} \begin{document} Without specifying width for last column: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{{{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}}} \hline Day & Min Temp & Max Temp & Summary \\ \hline Monday & 11C & 22C & A clear day with lots of sunshine. However, the strong breeze will bring down the temperatures. \\ \hline Tuesday & 9C & 19C & Cloudy with rain, across many northern regions. Clear spells across most of Scotland and Northern Ireland, but rain reaching the far northwest. \\ \hline Wednesday & 10C & 21C & Rain will still linger for the morning. Conditions will improve by early afternoon and continue throughout the evening. \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} With width specified: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ {{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}} p{5cm} {{!}}} \hline Day & Min Temp & Max Temp & Summary \\ \hline Monday & 11C & 22C & A clear day with lots of sunshine. However, the strong breeze will bring down the temperatures. \\ \hline Tuesday & 9C & 19C & Cloudy with rain, across many northern regions. Clear spells across most of Scotland and Northern Ireland, but rain reaching the far northwest. \\ \hline Wednesday & 10C & 21C & Rain will still linger for the morning. Conditions will improve by early afternoon and continue throughout the evening. \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{document} }} You get the following output: {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Latex example wrapped table.svg|800px|center]]}} Note that the first table has been cropped, since the output is wider than the page width. === Manually broken paragraphs in table cells === Sometimes it is necessary to not rely on the breaking algorithm when using the {{LaTeX/Parameter|p}} specifier, but rather specify the line breaks by hand. In this case it is easiest to use a {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\parbox<!---->}}: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{cc} boring cell content & \parbox[t]{5cm}{rather long par\\new par} \end{tabular} }} Here the {{LaTeX/Parameter|t}} argument controls the placement of the text inside the box. Other allowed values are {{LaTeX/Parameter|c}} for center and {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}} for bottom. === Space between columns === To tweak the space between columns (LaTeX will by default choose very tight columns), one can alter the column separation: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\setlength{\tabcolsep}{5pt}<!---->}}. The default value is 6pt. One can also introduce a horizontal space with hspace like this: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\begin{tabular}{r@{\hspace{1in}<!---->}<!---->rr}<!---->}} There are different options for the hspace [[LaTeX/Lengths|length]]. === Space between rows === Re-define the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\arraystretch<!---->}} command to set the space between rows: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.5} }} Default value is 1.0. An alternative way to adjust the rule spacing is to add {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\noalign{\smallskip}<!---->}} before or after the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\hline<!---->}} and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\cline{i-j}<!---->}} commands: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{ {{!}} l {{!}} l {{!}} r {{!}} } \hline\noalign{\smallskip} \multicolumn{2}{c}{Item} \\ \cline{1-2}\noalign{\smallskip} Animal & Description & Price (\$) \\ \noalign{\smallskip}\hline\noalign{\smallskip} Gnat & per gram & 13.65 \\ & each & 0.01 \\ Gnu & stuffed & 92.50 \\ Emu & stuffed & 33.33 \\ Armadillo & frozen & 8.99 \\ \noalign{\smallskip}\hline \end{tabular} }} You may also specify the skip after a line explicitly using glue after the line terminator {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{ll} \hline Mineral & Color \\[1cm] Ruby & red \\ Sapphire & blue \\ \hline \end{tabular} }} === Other environments inside tables === If you use some LaTeX environments inside table cells, like {{LaTeX/Environment|verbatim}} or {{LaTeX/Environment|enumerate}}: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{c c} \hline \begin{verbatim} code \end{verbatim} & description \\ \hline \end{tabular} }} you might encounter errors similar to <syntaxhighlight lang="output"> ! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item. </syntaxhighlight> To solve this problem, change [[#The tabular environment|column specifier]] to "paragraph" ({{LaTeX/Parameter|p}}, {{LaTeX/Parameter|m}} or {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}}). {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{m{5cm} c} }} === Defining multiple columns === It is possible to define many identically aligned columns at once using the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=*{num}{str}<!---->}} syntax. This is particularly useful when your table has many columns. Here is a table with six centered columns flanked by a single column on each side: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{l*{6}{c}r} Team & P & W & D & L & F & A & Pts \\ \hline Manchester United & 6 & 4 & 0 & 2 & 10 & 5 & 12 \\ Celtic & 6 & 3 & 0 & 3 & 8 & 9 & 9 \\ Benfica & 6 & 2 & 1 & 3 & 7 & 8 & 7 \\ FC Copenhagen & 6 & 2 & 1 & 3 & 5 & 8 & 7 \\ \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Latex example defining multiple columns.svg|450px]]}} }} === Column specification using <code>>{\cmd}</code> and <code><{\cmd}</code> === The column specification can be altered using the {{LaTeX/Package|array}} package. This is done in the argument of the tabular environment using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\command}}} for commands executed right ''before'' each column element and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=<{\command}}} for commands to be executed right ''after'' each column element. As an example: to get a column in math mode enter: <syntaxhighlight lang="tex" inline>\begin{tabular}{>{$}c<{$}}</syntaxhighlight>. Another example is changing the font: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\begin{tabular}{>{\small}c}|}} to print the column in a small font. The argument of the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>|}} and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=<|}} specifications must be correctly balanced when it comes to {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code={|}} and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=}|}} characters. This means that {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\bfseries}|}} is valid, while {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\textbf}|}} will not work and <code>{\textbf{}}</code> is not valid. If there is the need to use the text of the table as an argument (for instance, using the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\textbf|}} to produce bold text), one should use the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\bgroup|}} and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\egroup|}} commands: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\textbf\bgroup}c<{\egroup}|}} produces the intended effect. This works only for some basic LaTeX commands. For other commands, such as {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\underline|}} to underline text, it is necessary to temporarily store the column text in a box using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=lrbox|}}. First, you must define such a box with {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\newsavebox{\boxname}|}} and then you can define: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= >{\begin{lrbox}{\boxname} }% l% <{\end{lrbox}% \underline{\unhbox\boxname} }% } }} This stores the text in a box and afterwards, takes the text out of the box with {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\unhbox|}} (this destroys the box, if the box is needed again one should use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\unhcopy|}} instead) and passing it to {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\underline|}}. (For LaTeX2e, you may want to use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\usebox{\boxname}|}} instead of {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\unhbox\boxname|}}.) This same trick done with {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\raisebox|}} instead of {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\underline|}} can force all lines in a table to have equal height, instead of the natural varying height that can occur when e.g. math terms or superscripts occur in the text. Here is an example showing the use of both {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=p{...}|}} and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\centering}|}} : <syntaxhighlight lang="tex"> \begin{tabular}{>{\centering}p{3.5cm}>{\centering}p{3.5cm} } Geometry & Algebra \tabularnewline \hline Points & Addition \tabularnewline Spheres & Multiplication \end{tabular} </syntaxhighlight> Note the use of {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\tabularnewline|}} instead of {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\\|}} to avoid a <samp>Misplaced \noalign</samp> error. === @ and ! expressions === The column separator can be specified with the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=@{...}<!---->}} or {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=!{...}<!---->}} constructs. It typically takes some text as its argument, and when appended to a column, it will automatically insert that text into each cell in that column before the actual data for that cell. The {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=@{...}<!---->}} command kills the inter-column space and replaces it with whatever is between the curly braces. To keep the initial space, use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=!{...}<!---->}}. To add space, use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=@{\hspace{''width''}<!---->}<!---->}}. Admittedly, this is not that clear, and so will require a few examples to clarify. Sometimes, it is desirable in scientific tables to have the numbers aligned on the decimal point. This can be achieved by doing the following: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{r@{.}l} 3 & 14159 \\ 16 & 2 \\ 123 & 456 \\ \end{tabular} |render= <math>\begin{align}3&.14159\\16&.2\\123&.456\end{align}</math> }} The space-suppressing qualities of the @-expression actually make it quite useful for manipulating the horizontal spacing between columns. Given a basic table, and varying the column descriptions: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabular}{ {{!}}l{{!}}l{{!}} } \hline stuff & stuff \\ \hline stuff & stuff \\ \hline \end{tabular} }} {| | style="vertical-align: middle;" | <code><nowiki>{|l|l|}</nowiki></code> | style="vertical-align: middle;" | {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:specifier1.svg]]}} |- | style="vertical-align: middle;" | <code><nowiki>{|@{}l|l@{}|}</nowiki></code> | style="vertical-align: middle;" | {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:specifier2.svg]]}} |- | style="vertical-align: middle;" | <code><nowiki>{|@{}l@{}|l@{}|}</nowiki></code> | style="vertical-align: middle;" | {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:specifier3.svg]]}} |- | style="vertical-align: middle;" | <code><nowiki>{|@{}l@{}|@{}l@{}|}</nowiki></code> | style="vertical-align: middle;" | {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:specifier4.svg]]}} |} === Aligning columns at decimal points using dcolumn === Instead of using @-expressions to build columns of decimals aligned to the decimal point (or equivalent symbol), it is possible to center a column on the decimal separator using the {{LaTeX/Package|dcolumn}} package, which provides a new column specifier for floating point data. See the [http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/CTAN/macros/latex/required/tools/dcolumn.pdf dcolumn package documentation] for more information, but a simple way to use {{LaTeX/Package|dcolumn}} is as follows. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{dcolumn} \ldots \newcolumntype{d}[1]{D{.}{\cdot}{#1} } %the argument for d specifies the maximum number of decimal places \begin{tabular}{l r c d{1} } Left&Right&Center&\mathrm{Decimal}\\ 1&2&3&4\\ 11&22&33&44\\ 1.1&2.2&3.3&4.4\\ \end{tabular} |render={{Dark mode invert|[[File:LaTeX_example_dcolumn.png|200px]]}} }} A negative argument provided for the number of decimal places in the new column type allows unlimited decimal places, but may result in rather wide columns. Rounding is not applied, so the data to be tabulated should be adjusted to the number of decimal places specified. Note that a decimal aligned column is typeset in math mode, hence the use of \mathrm for the column heading in the example above. Also, text in a decimal aligned column (for example the header) will be right-aligned before the decimal separator (assuming there's no decimal separator in the text). While this may be fine for very short text, or numeric column headings, it looks cumbersome in the example above. A solution to this is to use the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn}} command described below, specifying a single column and its alignment. For example to center the header ''Decimal'' over its column in the above example, the first line of the table itself would be {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=Left&Right&Center&\multicolumn{1}{c}{Decimal}\\}} ====Bold text and dcolumn==== To draw attention to particular entries in a table, it may be nice to use bold text. Ordinarily this is easy, but as dcolumn needs to ''see'' the decimal point it is rather harder to do. In addition, the usual bold characters are wider than their normal counterparts, meaning that although the decimals may align nicely, the figures (for more than 2--3 digits on one side of the decimal point) will be visibly misaligned. It is however possible to use normal width bold characters and define a new bold column type, as shown below.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/118458/decimals-in-table-dont-align-with-dcolumn-when-bolded|title=Decimals in table don't align with dcolumn when bolded|author=D Carlisle|publisher=Stackexchange}}</ref> {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{dcolumn} %here we're setting up a version of the math fonts with normal x-width \DeclareMathVersion{nxbold} \SetSymbolFont{operators}{nxbold}{OT1}{cmr} {b}{n} \SetSymbolFont{letters} {nxbold}{OML}{cmm} {b}{it} \SetSymbolFont{symbols} {nxbold}{OMS}{cmsy}{b}{n} \begin{document} \makeatletter \newcolumntype{d}{D{.}{.}{-1} } %decimal column as before %wide bold decimal column \newcolumntype{B}[3]{>{\boldmath\DC@{#1}{#2}{#3} }c<{\DC@end} } %normal width bold decimal column \newcolumntype{Z}[3]{>{\mathversion{nxbold}\DC@{#1}{#2}{#3} }c<{\DC@end} } \makeatother \begin{tabular}{l l d} Type &M & \multicolumn{1}{c}{N} \\ Normal & 1 & 22222.222 \\ Bold (standard)&10 & \multicolumn{1}{B{.}{.}{-1} }{22222.222}\\ Bold (nxbold)&100 & \multicolumn{1}{Z{.}{.}{-1} }{22222.222}\\ \end{tabular} \end{document} |render={{Dark mode invert|[[file:LaTeX example dcolumn bold.png|200px]]}} }} == Row specification == It might be convenient to apply the same command over every cell of a row, just as for column. Unfortunately the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment cannot do that by default. We will need {{LaTeX/Package|tabu}} instead, which provides the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\rowfont<!---->}} option. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabu}{XX} \rowfont{\bfseries\itshape\large} Header1 & Header2 \\ \hline Cell2 & Cell2 \end{tabu} }} == Spanning == To complete this tutorial, we take a quick look at how to generate slightly more complex tables. Unsurprisingly, the commands necessary have to be embedded within the table data itself. === Rows spanning multiple columns === The command for this looks like this: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn{num_cols}{alignment}{contents}<!---->}}. {{LaTeX/Parameter|num_cols}} is the number of subsequent columns to merge; {{LaTeX/Parameter|alignment}} is either {{LaTeX/Parameter|l}}, {{LaTeX/Parameter|c}}, {{LaTeX/Parameter|r}}, or to have text wrapping specify a width {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=p{5.0cm}<!---->}} . And {{LaTeX/Parameter|contents}} is simply the actual data you want to be contained within that cell. You can also use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn{1}{alignment}{contents}<!---->}} for a single column. In this simple example, the name David Batty is an exception, shifted to the right: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ {{!}}l{{!}}l{{!}} } \hline \multicolumn{2}{{{!}}c{{!}}}{Team sheet} \\ \hline GK & Paul Robinson \\ LB & Lucas Radebe \\ DC & Michael Duberry \\ DC & Dominic Matteo \\ RB & Dider Domi \\ MC & \multicolumn{1}{r{{!}}}{David Batty} \\ MC & Eirik Bakke \\ MC & Jody Morris \\ FW & Jamie McMaster \\ ST & Alan Smith \\ ST & Mark Viduka \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:multicolumn.svg]]}} }} === Columns spanning multiple rows === The first thing you need to do is add {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\usepackage{multirow}|}} to the preamble<ref name="multirow">Package multirow [http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/multirow/ on CTAN]</ref>. This then provides the command needed for spanning rows: <code>\multirow{''num_rows''}{''width''}{''contents''}</code>. The arguments are pretty simple to deduce ({{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=*<!---->}} for the ''width'' means the content's natural width). {{LaTeX/Example|code= ... \usepackage{multirow} ... \begin{tabular}{ {{!}}l{{!}}l{{!}}l{{!}} } \hline \multicolumn{3}{ {{!}}c{{!}} }{Team sheet} \\ \hline Goalkeeper & GK & Paul Robinson \\ \hline \multirow{4}{*}{Defenders} & LB & Lucas Radebe \\ & DC & Michael Duburry \\ & DC & Dominic Matteo \\ & RB & Didier Domi \\ \hline \multirow{3}{*}{Midfielders} & MC & David Batty \\ & MC & Eirik Bakke \\ & MC & Jody Morris \\ \hline Forward & FW & Jamie McMaster \\ \hline \multirow{2}{*}{Strikers} & ST & Alan Smith \\ & ST & Mark Viduka \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:multirow.svg]]}} }} The main thing to note when using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multirow<!---->}} is that a blank entry must be inserted for each appropriate cell in each subsequent row to be spanned. If there is no data for a cell, just don't type anything, but you still need the "&" separating it from the next column's data. The astute reader will already have deduced that for a table of <math>n</math> columns, there must always be <math>n-1</math> ampersands in each row (unless {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn<!---->}} is also used). === Spanning in both directions simultaneously === Here is a nontrivial example of how to use spanning in both directions simultaneously and have the borders of the cells drawn correctly: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{multirow} \begin{tabular}{cc{{!}}c{{!}}c{{!}}c{{!}}c{{!}}l} \cline{3-6} & & \multicolumn{4}{ c{{!}} }{Primes} \\ \cline{3-6} & & 2 & 3 & 5 & 7 \\ \cline{1-6} \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c }{\multirow{2}{*}{Powers} } & \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c{{!}} }{504} & 3 & 2 & 0 & 1 & \\ \cline{2-6} \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c }{} & \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c{{!}} }{540} & 2 & 3 & 1 & 0 & \\ \cline{1-6} \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c }{\multirow{2}{*}{Powers} } & \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c{{!}} }{gcd} & 2 & 2 & 0 & 0 & min \\ \cline{2-6} \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c }{} & \multicolumn{1}{ {{!}}c{{!}} }{lcm} & 3 & 3 & 1 & 1 & max \\ \cline{1-6} \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:multirowandcolumnexample.svg|300px]]}} }} The command {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn{1}{|c|}{...}<!---->}} is just used to draw vertical borders both on the left and on the right of the cell. Even when combined with {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multirow{2}{*}{...}<!---->}}, it still draws vertical borders that only span the first row. To compensate for that, we add {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn{1}{|c|}{...}<!---->}} in the following rows spanned by the multirow. Note that we cannot just use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\hline<!---->}} to draw horizontal lines, since we do not want the line to be drawn over the text that spans several rows. Instead we use the command {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\cline{2-6}<!---->}} and opt out the first column that contains the text "Powers". Here is another example exploiting the same ideas to make the familiar and popular "2x2" or double dichotomy: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ r{{!}}c{{!}}c{{!}} } \multicolumn{1}{r}{} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{noninteractive} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{interactive} \\ \cline{2-3} massively multiple & Library & University \\ \cline{2-3} one-to-one & Book & Tutor \\ \cline{2-3} \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Latex-tables-double-dichotomy-example.svg|400px]]}} }} ==Controlling table size== === Resize tables === The {{LaTeX/Package|graphicx}} packages features the command {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\resizebox{width}{height}{object}<!---->}} which can be used with {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} to specify the height and width of a table. The following example shows how to resize a table to 8cm width while maintaining the original width/height ratio. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \usepackage{graphicx} % ... \resizebox{8cm}{!} { \begin{tabular}... \end{tabular} } }} Resizing table including the caption {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{table}[h] \resizebox{1.4\textwidth}{!}{\begin{minipage}{\textwidth} \begin{tabular}{r{{!}}c{{!}}c{{!}}} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{noninteractive} & \multicolumn{1}{c}{interactive} \\ \cline{2-3} massively multiple & Library & University \\ \cline{2-3} one-to-one & Book & Tutor \\ \cline{2-3} \end{tabular} \caption[Table caption text]{Table taken from \cite[p.10]{refid} } \label{table:name} \end{minipage} } \end{table} }} Alternatively you can use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\scalebox{ratio}{object}<!---->}} in the same way but with ratios rather than fixed sizes: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \usepackage{graphicx} % ... \scalebox{0.7}{ \begin{tabular}... \end{tabular} } }} === Changing font size === A table can be globally switched to a different font size by simply adding the desired size command (here: {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\footnotesize<!---->}}) in the table scope, which may be after the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\begin{table}<!---->}} statement if you use floats, otherwise you need to add a group delimiter. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= {\footnotesize \begin{tabular}{{{!}} r {{!}} r {{!}}{{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}}} % ... \end{tabular} } }} {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{table}[h]\footnotesize \caption{Performance at peak F-measure} \begin{tabular}{{{!}} r {{!}} r {{!}}{{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}}} % ... \end{tabular} \end{table} }} Alternatively, you can change the default font for all the tables in your document by placing the following code in the preamble: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \let\oldtabular\tabular \renewcommand{\tabular}{\footnotesize\oldtabular} }} See [[LaTeX/Fonts#Sizing_text|Fonts]] for named font sizes. The table caption font size is not affected. To control the caption font size, see [[LaTeX/Floats,_Figures_and_Captions#Caption_Styles|Caption Styles]]. It is also possible to change the vertical space between rows using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{0.8}<!---->}} before {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\begin{tabular}<!---->}}. == Colors == === Alternate row colors in tables === The {{LaTeX/Package|xcolor}} package provides the necessary commands to produce tables with alternate row colors, when loaded with the {{LaTeX/Parameter|table}} option. The command <code>\rowcolors{<''starting row''>}{<''odd color''>}{<''even color''>}</code> has to be specified right before the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment starts. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \documentclass{article} \usepackage[table]{xcolor} \begin{document} \begin{center} \rowcolors{1}{green}{pink} \begin{tabular}{lll} odd & odd & odd \\ even & even & even\\ odd & odd & odd \\ even & even & even\\ \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{document} |render= [[File:LaTeXAlternateRowTable.svg|right]] }} The command {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\hiderowcolors<!---->}} is available to deactivate highlighting from a specified row until the end of the table. Highlighting can be reactivated within the table via the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\showrowcolors<!---->}} command. If while using these commands you experience <samp>misplaced \noalign errors</samp> then use the commands at the very beginning or end of a row in your tabular. {{LaTeX/Usage|code=\hiderowcolors odd & odd & odd \\<!---->}} or {{LaTeX/Usage|code=odd & odd & odd \\ \showrowcolors<!---->}} === Colors of individual cells === As above this uses the {{LaTeX/Package|xcolor<!---->}} package. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= % Include this somewhere in your document \usepackage[table]{xcolor} % Enter this in the cell you wish to color a light grey. % NB: the word 'gray' here denotes the grayscale color scheme, not the color grey. '0.9' denotes how dark the grey is. \cellcolor[gray]{0.9} % The following will color the cell red. \cellcolor{red} }} == Width and stretching == We keep providing documentation for {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular*}} and {{LaTeX/Environment|tabularx}}. === The ''tabular*'' environment=== This is basically a slight extension on the original tabular version, although it requires an extra argument (before the column descriptions) to specify the preferred width of the table. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular*}{0.75\textwidth}{ {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} r {{!}} } \hline label 1 & label 2 & label 3 & label 4 \\ \hline item 1 & item 2 & item 3 & item 4 \\ \hline \end{tabular*} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX TabWidth1.svg|right]]}} }} However, that may not look quite as intended. The columns are still at their natural width (just wide enough to fit their contents) while the rows are as wide as the table width specified. If you do not like this default, you must also explicitly insert extra column space. LaTeX has ''rubber lengths'', which, unlike others, are not fixed. LaTeX can dynamically decide how long the lengths should be. So, an example of this is the following. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular*}{0.75\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill} } {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} r {{!}} } \hline label 1 & label 2 & label 3 & label 4 \\ \hline item 1 & item 2 & item 3 & item 4 \\ \hline \end{tabular*} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX TabWidth2.svg|right]]}} }} You will notice the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=@{...}<!---->}} construct added at the beginning of the column description. Within it is the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\extracolsep<!---->}} command, which requires a width. A fixed width could have been used. However, by using a rubber length, such as {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\fill<!---->}}, the columns are automatically spaced evenly. === The ''tabularx'' package === This package provides a table environment called {{LaTeX/Environment|tabularx}}, which is similar to the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular*}} environment except that it has a new column specifier {{LaTeX/Parameter|X}} (in uppercase). The column(s) specified with this specifier will be stretched to make the table as wide as specified, greatly simplifying the creation of tables. {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{tabularx} % ... \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{ {{!}}X{{!}}X{{!}}X{{!}}X{{!}} } \hline label 1 & label 2 & label 3 & label 4 \\ \hline item 1 & item 2 & item 3 & item 4 \\ \hline \end{tabularx} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX TabXWidth1.svg|450px|right]]}} }} The content provided for the boxes is treated as for a {{LaTeX/Parameter|p}} column, except that the width is calculated automatically. If you use the package {{LaTeX/Package|array}}, you may also apply any {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=>{\cmd}|}} or {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=<{\cmd}|}} command to achieve specific behavior (like {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\centering<!---->}}, or {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\raggedright\arraybackslash<!---->}}) as described previously. Another option is to use {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\newcolumntype<!---->}} to format selected columns in a different way. It defines a new column specifier, e.g. {{LaTeX/Parameter|R}} (in uppercase). In this example, the second and fourth column is adjusted in a different way ({{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\raggedleft<!---->}}): {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{tabularx} % ... \newcolumntype{R}{>{\raggedleft\arraybackslash}X}% \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{ {{!}}l{{!}}R{{!}}l{{!}}R{{!}} } \hline label 1 & label 2 & label 3 & label 4 \\ \hline item 1 & item 2 & item 3 & item 4 \\ \hline \end{tabularx} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX TabXWidth2.svg|450px|right]]}} }} Tabularx with rows spanning multiple columns using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn<!---->}}. The two central columns are posing as one by using the {{LaTeX/Parameter|X@{}}} option. Note that the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\multicolumn<!---->}} width (which in this example is 2) should equal the (in this example 1+1) width of the spanned columns: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{tabularx} % ... \begin{tabularx}{1\textwidth}{ {{!}}>{\setlength\hsize{1\hsize}\centering}X{{!}}>{\setlength\hsize{1\hsize}\raggedleft}X@{} >{\setlength\hsize{1\hsize}\raggedright}X{{!}}>{\setlength\hsize{1\hsize}\centering}X{{!}} } \hline Label 1 & \multicolumn{2}{>{\centering\setlength\hsize{2\hsize} }X{{!}}}{Label 2} & Label 3\tabularnewline \hline 123 & 123 & 456 & 123 \tabularnewline \hline 123 & 123 & 456 & 123 \tabularnewline \hline \end{tabularx} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX tabularx_multi.svg|450px|right]]}} }} In a way analogous to how new commands with arguments can be created with {{code|\newcommand}}, new column types with arguments can be created with {{code|\newcolumntype}} as follows: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage[table]{xcolor} %Used to color the last column % ... \newcolumntype{L}[1]{>{\hsize=#1\hsize\raggedright\arraybackslash}X}% \newcolumntype{R}[1]{>{\hsize=#1\hsize\raggedleft\arraybackslash}X}% \newcolumntype{C}[2]{>{\hsize=#1\hsize\columncolor{#2}\centering\arraybackslash}X}% \begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{ {{!}} L{1} {{!}} R{0.5} {{!}} R{0.5} {{!}} C{2}{gray} {{!}} } \hline label 1 & label 2 & label 3 & label 4 \\ \hline item 1 & item 2 & item 3 & item 4 \\ \hline \end{tabularx} }} where since there are 4 columns, the sum of the {{code|\hsize}}'s (1 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 2) must be equal to 4. The default value used by tabularx for {{code|\hsize}} is 1. === The ''tabulary'' package === [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/tabulary <code>tabulary</code>] is a modified {{LaTeX/Package|tabular*}} allowing width of columns set for equal heights. {{LaTeX/Package|tabulary}} allows easy and convenient writing of well balanced tables. The problem with {{LaTeX/Package|tabularx}} is that it leaves much blank if your cells are almost empty. Besides, it is not easy to have different column sizes. {{LaTeX/Package|tabulary}} tries to balance the column widths so that each column has at least its natural width, without exceeding the maximum length. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \usepackage{tabulary} ... \begin{center} \begin{tabulary}{0.7\textwidth}{LCL} Short sentences & \# & Long sentences \\ \hline This is short. & 173 & This is much loooooooonger, because there are many more words. \\ This is not shorter. & 317 & This is still loooooooonger, because there are many more words. \\ \end{tabulary} \end{center} }} The first parameter is the maximum width. {{LaTeX/Package|tabulary}} will try not to exceed it, but it will not stretch to it if there is not enough content, contrary to {{LaTeX/Package|tabularx}}. The second parameter is the column disposition. Possible values are those from the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment, plus {| class="wikitable" | {{LaTeX/Parameter|L}} | left-justified balanced column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|C}} | centered balanced column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|R}} | right-justified balanced column |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|J}} | left-right-justified balanced column |} These are all capitals. === The ''tabu'' environment === It works pretty much like {{LaTeX/Environment|tabularx}}. Note: ''tabu'' is currently [https://github.com/tabu-issues-for-future-maintainer/tabu/blob/master/README.md broken and unmaintained] {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{tabu} to \linewidth {llX[2]lllXl} % ... \end{tabu} }} {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=to \linewidth<!---->}} specifies the target width. The {{LaTeX/Parameter|X}} parameter can have an optional span factor. == Table across several pages == Long tables are natively supported by LaTeX thanks to the {{LaTeX/Environment|longtable}} environment, which replaces both the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} and {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environments or rather combines them into a single environment. Unfortunately, this environment does not support stretching (X columns). The {{LaTeX/Package|tabu}} package (which is [https://github.com/tabu-issues-for-future-maintainer/tabu/blob/main/README.md no longer maintained]) provides the {{LaTeX/Environment|longtabu}} environment. It has most of the features of {{LaTeX/Environment|tabu}}, with the additional capability to span multiple pages. LaTeX can do well with long tables: you can specify a header that will repeat on every page, a header for the first page only, and the same for the footer. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{longtabu} to \linewidth {lX[2]lXl} \rowfont\bfseries H1 & H2 & H3 & H4 & H5 \\ \hline \endhead \\ \hline \multicolumn{5}{r}{There is more to come} \\ \endfoot \\ \hline \endlastfoot % Content ... }} It uses syntax similar to {{LaTeX/Environment|longtable}}, so you should have a look at its documentation if you want to know more. Alternatively you can try one of the following packages [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/supertabular <code>supertabular</code>] or [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xtab <code>xtab</code>], an extended and somewhat improved version of {{LaTeX/Package|supertabular}}. == Partial vertical lines == Adding a partial vertical line to an individual cell: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ l c r } \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & \multicolumn{1}{r{{!}}}{6} \\ \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Partial-vertical-line-add.svg]]}} }} Removing part of a vertical line in a particular cell: {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{ {{!}} l {{!}} c {{!}} r {{!}} } \hline 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline 4 & 5 & \multicolumn{1}{r}{6} \\ \hline 7 & 8 & 9 \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render= {{Dark mode invert|[[Image:Partial-vertical-line-remove.svg]]}} }} == Vertically centered images == Inserting images into a table row will align it at the top of the cell. By using the {{LaTeX/Package|array}} package this problem can be solved. Defining a new columntype will keep the image vertically centered. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \newcolumntype{V}{>{\centering\arraybackslash} m{.4\linewidth} } }} Or use a parbox to center the image. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \parbox[c]{1em}{\includegraphics{image.png} } }} A raisebox works as well, also allowing to manually fine-tune the alignment with its first parameter. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \raisebox{-.5\height}{\includegraphics{image.png} } }} == Footnotes in tables == The {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment does not handle footnotes properly. The {{LaTeX/Environment|longtable}} fixes that. == Professional tables == Many professionally typeset books and journals feature simple tables, which have appropriate spacing above and below lines, and almost ''never'' use vertical rules. Many examples of LaTeX tables (including this Wikibook) showcase the use of vertical rules (using "|"), and double-rules (using {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\hline\hline<!---->}} or "||"), which are regarded as unnecessary and distracting in a professionally published form. The [http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/booktabs/ booktabs] package is useful for easily providing this professionalism in LaTeX tables, and the [http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/booktabs/booktabs.pdf documentation] also provides guidelines on what constitutes a "good" table. In brief, the package uses {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\toprule<!---->}} for the uppermost rule (or line), {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\midrule<!---->}} for the rules appearing in the middle of the table (such as under the header), and {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\bottomrule<!---->}} for the lowermost rule. This ensures that the rule weight and spacing are acceptable. In addition, {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\cmidrule<!---->}} can be used for mid-rules that span specified columns. The following example contrasts the use of booktabs and two equivalent normal LaTeX implementations (the second example requires {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\usepackage{array}<!---->}} or {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\usepackage{dcolumn}<!---->}}, and the third example requires {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\usepackage{booktabs}<!---->}} in the preamble). === Normal LaTeX === {{LaTeX/Example|code= \begin{tabular}{llr} \hline \multicolumn{2}{c}{Item} \\ \cline{1-2} Animal & Description & Price (\$) \\ \hline Gnat & per gram & 13.65 \\ & each & 0.01 \\ Gnu & stuffed & 92.50 \\ Emu & stuffed & 33.33 \\ Armadillo & frozen & 8.99 \\ \hline \end{tabular} |render={{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX animal table.svg]]}}}} === Using {{LaTeX/Package|array}} === {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{array} %or \usepackage{dcolumn} ... \begin{tabular}{llr} \firsthline \multicolumn{2}{c}{Item} \\ \cline{1-2} Animal & Description & Price (\$) \\ \hline Gnat & per gram & 13.65 \\ & each & 0.01 \\ Gnu & stuffed & 92.50 \\ Emu & stuffed & 33.33 \\ Armadillo & frozen & 8.99 \\ \lasthline \end{tabular} |render={{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX animal table with array.svg]]}}}} === Using {{LaTeX/Package|booktabs}} === {{LaTeX/Example|code= \usepackage{booktabs} \begin{tabular}{llr} \toprule \multicolumn{2}{c}{Item} \\ \cmidrule(r){1-2} Animal & Description & Price (\$) \\ \midrule Gnat & per gram & 13.65 \\ & each & 0.01 \\ Gnu & stuffed & 92.50 \\ Emu & stuffed & 33.33 \\ Armadillo & frozen & 8.99 \\ \bottomrule \end{tabular} |render={{Dark mode invert|[[Image:LaTeX animal table with booktabs.svg]]}}}} Usually the need arises for footnotes under a table (and not at the bottom of the page), with a caption properly spaced above the table. These are addressed by the [http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ctable/ ctable] package. It provides the option of a short caption given to be inserted in the list of tables, instead of the actual caption (which may be quite long and inappropriate for the list of tables). The {{LaTeX/Package|ctable}} uses the {{LaTeX/Package|booktabs}} package. == Sideways tables == Tables can also be put on their side within a document using the {{LaTeX/Package|rotating}} or the {{LaTeX/Package|rotfloat}} package. See the [[LaTeX/Rotations|Rotations]] chapter. == Table with legend == To add a legend to a table the [http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/caption/ caption] package can be used. With the caption package a {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\caption*{...}<!---->}} statement can be added besides the normal {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\caption{...}<!---->}}. Example: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{table} \begin{tabular}{{{!}} r {{!}} r {{!}}{{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}} c {{!}}} ... \end{tabular} \caption{A normal caption} \caption*{ A legend, even a table can be used \begin{tabular}{l l} item 1 & explanation 1 \\ \end{tabular} } \end{table} }} The normal caption is needed for labels and references. == The ''eqparbox'' package == On rare occasions, it might be necessary to stretch every row in a table to the natural width of its longest line, for instance when one has the same text in two languages and wishes to present these next to each other with lines synching up. A tabular environment helps control where lines should break, but cannot justify the text, which leads to ragged right edges. The {{LaTeX/Package|eqparbox}} package provides the command {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\eqmakebox<!---->}} which is like {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\makebox<!---->}} but instead of a {{LaTeX/Parameter|width}} argument, it takes a tag. During compilation it bookkeeps which {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\eqmakebox<!---->}} with a certain tag contains the widest text and can stretch all {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\eqmakebox<!---->}}es with the same tag to that width. Combined with the {{LaTeX/Package|array}} package, one can define a column specifier that justifies the text in all lines:comand {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \newsavebox{\tstretchbox} \newcolumntype{S}[1]{% >{\begin{lrbox}{\tstretchbox} }% l% <{\end{lrbox}% \eqmakebox[#1][s]{\unhcopy\tstretchbox} }% } }} See the documentation of the {{LaTeX/Package|eqparbox}} package for more details. == The ''paracol'' package == The various tabular environments available for LaTeX are feature rich; however, they lack the ability to '''automatically page break large rows'''. The paracol package provides automatic page breaks in between rows and in certain cases can replace the tabular environment. Such situations could be common in documents that require translations and definitions, which may also includes lists. For further detail see the documentation of the {{LaTeX/Package|paracol}} package. == Floating with ''table'' == In WYSIWYG document processors, it is common to put tables in the middle of the text. This is what we have been doing until now. Professional documents, however, often make it a point to print tables on a dedicated page so that they do not disrupt the flow. From the point of view of the source code, one has no idea on which page the current text is going to lie, so it is hardly possible to guess which page may be appropriate for our table. LaTeX can automate this task by abstracting objects such as tables, pictures, etc., and deciding for us where they might fit best. This abstraction is called a ''float''. Generally, an object that is floated will appear in the vicinity of its introduction in the source file, but one can choose to control its position also. To tell LaTeX we want to use our table as a float, we need to put a {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment around the {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} environment, which is able to float and add a label and caption. {{Warning| Please understand: you do not ''have to'' use floating tables. If you want to place your tables where they lie in your source code and you do not need any label, do not use {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} at all! This is a very common misunderstanding among newcomers. }} The {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment initiates a type of float just as the environment {{LaTeX/Environment|figure}}. In fact, the two bear a lot of similarities (positioning, captions, etc.). More information about floating environments, captions etc. can be found in [[LaTeX/Floats,_Figures_and_Captions|Floats, Figures and Captions]]. The environment names may now seem quite confusing. Let's sum it up: * {{LaTeX/Environment|tabular}} is for the content itself (columns, lines, etc.). * {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} is for the location of the table on the document, plus caption and label support. {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \begin{table}[position specifier] \centering \begin{tabular}{{{!}}l{{!}}} ... your table ... \end{tabular} \caption{This table shows some data} \label{tab:myfirsttable} \end{table} }} In the table, we used a label, so now we can refer to it just like any other reference: {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \ref{tab:myfirsttable} }} The {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment is also useful when you want to have a list of tables at the beginning or end of your document with the command {{LaTeX/Usage|code= \listoftables }} The captions now show up in the list of tables, if displayed. You can set the optional parameter {{LaTeX/Parameter|position specifier}} to define the position of the table, where it should be placed. The following characters are all possible placements. Using sequences of it define your "wishlist" to LaTeX. {| class="wikitable" |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|h}} | where the table is declared ('''h'''ere) |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|t}} | at the '''t'''op of the page |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}} | at the '''b'''ottom of the page |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|p}} | on a dedicated '''p'''age of floats |- | {{LaTeX/Parameter|!}} |override the default float restrictions. E.g., the maximum size allowed of a {{LaTeX/Parameter|b}} float is normally quite small; if you want a large one, you need this {{LaTeX/Parameter|!}} parameter as well. |- |} Default is {{LaTeX/Parameter|tbp}}, which means that it is by default placed on the top of the page. If that's not possible, it's placed at the bottom if possible, or finally with other floating environments on an extra page. You can force LaTeX to use one given position. E.g. {{LaTeX/Parameter|[!h]}} forces LaTeX to place it exactly where you place it (Except when it's really impossible, e.g you place a table ''here'' and this place would be the last line on a page). Again, understand it correctly: it urges LaTeX to put the table at a specific place, but it will not be placed there if LaTeX thinks it will not look great. If you really want to place your table manually, do not use the {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment. Centering the table horizontally works like everything else, using the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\centering<!---->}} command just after opening the {{LaTeX/Environment|table}} environment, or by enclosing it with a {{LaTeX/Environment|center}} environment. == Using spreadsheets and data analysis tools == For complex or dynamic tables, you may want to use a spreadsheet. You might save lots of time by building tables using specialized software and exporting them in LaTeX format. The following plugins and libraries are available for some popular software: * [http://calc2latex.sourceforge.net/ calc2latex]: for LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org Calc spreadsheets, * [http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/excel2latex/ excel2latex]: for Microsoft Office Excel, * [https://github.com/TheChymera/matrix2latex matrix2latex]: for Python and MATLAB, * [http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/generated/pandas.DataFrame.to_latex.html pandas]: pandas DataFrame's have a method to convert data they contain to latex, * [http://rubygems.org/gems/latex-tools latex-tools]: a Ruby library, * [http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xtable/index.html xtable]: a library for R, * [http://orgmode.org/ org-mode]: for Emacs users, org-mode tables can be used inline in LaTeX documents, see [https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/A-LaTeX-example.html] for a tutorial. * [http://emacswiki.org/emacs/AlignCommands Emacs align commands]: the align commands can clean up a messy LaTeX table. * [http://truben.no/latex/table/ Online Table generator for LATeX]: An online tool for creating simple tables within the browser. LaTeX format is directly generated as you type. * [http://www.tablesgenerator.com/ Create LaTeX tables online ]: Online tool. However, copying the generated source code to your document is not convenient at all. For maximum flexibility, generate the source code to a separate file which you can input from your main document file with the {{LaTeX/LaTeX|code=\input<!---->}} command. If your spreadsheet supports command-line, you can generate your complete document (table included) in one command, using a Makefile for example. See [[LaTeX/Modular Documents|Modular Documents]] for more details. == Need more features? == Have a look at one of the following packages: * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/hhline <code>hhline</code>]: do whatever you want with horizontal lines * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/array <code>array</code>]: gives you more freedom on how to define columns * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/colortbl <code>colortbl</code>]: make your table more colorful * <code>[https://ctan.org/pkg/threeparttable threeparttable]</code> makes it possible to put footnotes both within the table and its caption * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/arydshln <code>arydshln</code>]: creates dashed horizontal and vertical lines * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ctable <code>ctable</code>]: allows for footnotes under table and properly spaced caption above (incorporates booktabs package) * [http://www.ctan.org/pkg/slashbox <code>slashbox</code>]: create 2D tables with the first cell containing a description for both axes.

I know about git and svn. Native Oberon is in the SourceForge; https://sourceforge.net/projects/nativeoberon/ . A wikibook has at least two pertinent and significant benefits. Firstly, the source can be read directly with a Web browser. The user needs no understanding of the git or svn mechanisms. This is significant for an unsophisticated reader. Secondly, each article page has a discussion page where obscurities and revisions can be discussed. If these capabilities are available with git or svn, I'm unaware. Regards, [[User:PeterEasthope|PeterEasthope]] ([[User talk:PeterEasthope|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/PeterEasthope|contribs]]) 14:52, 20 April 2016 (UTC) Both, git and svn have the versioning history, which might be a little bit difficult to get with wikis and wikibooks.

Any compilation of educational information abuts the line with "original research". A large part of research involves better organizing information that's already out there, and providing a more coherent framework - especially one that exposes and fills in gaps. Between "original research" and "regurgitating already-existing information verbatim" there is no room for anything; and distinctions that allow one to say otherwise are purely subjective and will lead to arbitrary and inconsistent enforcement. An important example: a compilation into Wikibooks of recently-published peer-reviewed research, to make it more accessible to a general audience, that is written by the ones who originally published it in the journal. If it's already in a peer-reviewed journal, does it count as "original research"? No? Okay then; if it's written by the people who published it in the journal, does it count as "original research"? Or are they supposed to bring in a ghost-writer? So - as you can see even by this simple example - there is no line to distinguish what's okay from what's not. And even if there were, the restriction is basically saying that the premier experts on the material published in a journal are not able to write a wikibook on the subject - which makes no sense at all. Another set of examples: any survey of what's out there is "original research" - the very process of surveying is a form of research! (Journals will even publish such material). So, now you're also excluding compilations that bring everything together in one place. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b|2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b]] ([[User talk:2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b|contribs]]) 19:11, 22 July 2020 (UTC)</small> == Chemistry == What is valency [[Special:Contributions/105.112.28.20|105.112.28.20]] ([[User talk:105.112.28.20|discuss]]) 10:34, 2 August 2022 (UTC) == Chemistry == The first 103 element [[Special:Contributions/105.112.28.20|105.112.28.20]] ([[User talk:105.112.28.20|discuss]]) 10:37, 2 August 2022 (UTC) == Proposal == Can we remove "Wikibooks is not an encyclopedia" ?

These materials can be used in a traditional classroom, an accredited or respected institution, a home-school environment, as part of a Wikiversity course, or for self-learning. As a general rule, only instructional books are suitable for inclusion. Non-fictional books (as well as fictional ones) that aren't instructional aren't allowed on Wikibooks." Currently, there is some confusion on what exactly it means for something to be instructional, and I think it would be good to clarify. For example, it's obvious that a book teaching you '''how to do something''' (e.g. cook, learn a language, operate an instrument, do a craft, do math) is instructional. However, the line is blurred on some other non-fictional topics, such as history, sociology, etc—a book could be a valid scholarly analysis or summary of historical events, but this alone may not qualify it as '''instructional''' per se (see the existing policy line that says "Non-fictional books...that aren't instructional aren't allowed on Wikibooks"). From my perspective, it is very important for us to add clarity to the policy to make scope considerations easier. To start the discussion, I propose the following. Non-fictional books that are not obviously "how-to guides" or annotated texts (and potentially all books here) should: * Have an introduction chapter that outlines the educational scope and instructional aims of the book—it should be stated specifically what the reader should be able to do after reading the book. * Engage the reader in instructional exercises. This can take the form of discussion questions, thought exercises, practical exercises, essay prompts, experiments, etc. I realize that this may make some books we host here out of scope, but I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing to prune our content according to sensible consensus guidelines. We could also make this apply only to new books if we thought that was the best thing to do.

The reason is that you can have a book that just lays down facts about an event (like a book about great inventions of the world), and not every book needs to take an educational angle (isn't that what Wikiversity is for?). [[User:Leaderboard|Leaderboard]] ([[User talk:Leaderboard|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Leaderboard|contribs]]) 14:11, 7 May 2024 (UTC) :"Instructional" has two dictionary definitions: ::''intended or used for teaching; educational'' as in ''"instructional materials for the classroom"'' :and: ::''giving detailed information about how something should be done or operated'' as in ''"an instructional manual"'' :The vast majority of books here fit the first definition very well without needing "exercises". For example, a book on the history of the United States is clearly instructional and could be used in a classroom. The books that are intended to be out of scope are, for example, a non-fiction book proposing that a discredited conspiracy theory is true. It might be non-fiction, but it can't be used in a classroom because it is nonsense.

In theory. (Yes, there are cases that push the envelope, and one tries to be sensible about it and not let common-sense relaxation in one case become entitlement in another case.) And our prohibition against OR was, so I've heard, a major motivation in the creation of Wikiversity. <p> We generally would not, I think, object to original ways of ''presenting'' material, within reason (though I recall a case that got moved to Wikiversity, which I should probably look up when I get a chance, to see just what was said in the discussions at the time &mdash; it may be highly relevant here). Presenting material about new research seems to me to depend on how idiosyncratic it is; it's not generally okay to write a book about one's own work, although there might be room to nibble, ''very'' carefully, around the edges of that.</p> --[[User:Pi zero|Pi zero]] ([[User talk:Pi zero|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Pi zero|contribs]]) 17:11, 7 July 2018 (UTC) : Yes, there is a problem with it - a big problem. Any compilation of educational information abuts the line with "original research". A large part of research involves better organizing information that's already out there, and providing a more coherent framework - especially one that exposes and fills in gaps. Between "original research" and "regurgitating already-existing information verbatim" there is no room for anything; and distinctions that allow one to say otherwise are purely subjective and will lead to arbitrary and inconsistent enforcement. An important example: a compilation into Wikibooks of recently-published peer-reviewed research, to make it more accessible to a general audience, that is written by the ones who originally published it in the journal. If it's already in a peer-reviewed journal, does it count as "original research"? No? Okay then; if it's written by the people who published it in the journal, does it count as "original research"? Or are they supposed to bring in a ghost-writer? So - as you can see even by this simple example - there is no line to distinguish what's okay from what's not. And even if there were, the restriction is basically saying that the premier experts on the material published in a journal are not able to write a wikibook on the subject - which makes no sense at all. Another set of examples: any survey of what's out there is "original research" - the very process of surveying is a form of research! (Journals will even publish such material). So, now you're also excluding compilations that bring everything together in one place. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b|2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b]] ([[User talk:2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/2603:6000:aa40:1ef2:222:69ff:fe4c:408b|contribs]]) 19:11, 22 July 2020 (UTC)</small> == Chemistry == What is valency [[Special:Contributions/105.112.28.20|105.112.28.20]] ([[User talk:105.112.28.20|discuss]]) 10:34, 2 August 2022 (UTC) == Chemistry == The first 103 element [[Special:Contributions/105.112.28.20|105.112.28.20]] ([[User talk:105.112.28.20|discuss]]) 10:37, 2 August 2022 (UTC) == Proposal == Can we remove "Wikibooks is not an encyclopedia" ?

These materials can be used in a traditional classroom, an accredited or respected institution, a home-school environment, as part of a Wikiversity course, or for self-learning. As a general rule, only instructional books are suitable for inclusion. Non-fictional books (as well as fictional ones) that aren't instructional aren't allowed on Wikibooks." Currently, there is some confusion on what exactly it means for something to be instructional, and I think it would be good to clarify. For example, it's obvious that a book teaching you '''how to do something''' (e.g. cook, learn a language, operate an instrument, do a craft, do math) is instructional. However, the line is blurred on some other non-fictional topics, such as history, sociology, etc—a book could be a valid scholarly analysis or summary of historical events, but this alone may not qualify it as '''instructional''' per se (see the existing policy line that says "Non-fictional books...that aren't instructional aren't allowed on Wikibooks"). From my perspective, it is very important for us to add clarity to the policy to make scope considerations easier. To start the discussion, I propose the following. Non-fictional books that are not obviously "how-to guides" or annotated texts (and potentially all books here) should: * Have an introduction chapter that outlines the educational scope and instructional aims of the book—it should be stated specifically what the reader should be able to do after reading the book. * Engage the reader in instructional exercises. This can take the form of discussion questions, thought exercises, practical exercises, essay prompts, experiments, etc. I realize that this may make some books we host here out of scope, but I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing to prune our content according to sensible consensus guidelines. We could also make this apply only to new books if we thought that was the best thing to do.

The reason is that you can have a book that just lays down facts about an event (like a book about great inventions of the world), and not every book needs to take an educational angle (isn't that what Wikiversity is for?). [[User:Leaderboard|Leaderboard]] ([[User talk:Leaderboard|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Leaderboard|contribs]]) 14:11, 7 May 2024 (UTC) :"Instructional" has two dictionary definitions: ::''intended or used for teaching; educational'' as in ''"instructional materials for the classroom"'' :and: ::''giving detailed information about how something should be done or operated'' as in ''"an instructional manual"'' :The vast majority of books here fit the first definition very well without needing "exercises". For example, a book on the history of the United States is clearly instructional and could be used in a classroom. The books that are intended to be out of scope are, for example, a non-fiction book proposing that a discredited conspiracy theory is true. It might be non-fiction, but it can't be used in a classroom because it is nonsense.

I am curious, though, how exactly we might differentiate books here from, say, a Wikipedia page on the same topic. For example, if I wanted to create a book on English history, how would it need to be structured in order to make it different from [[w:History of England]]? Similarly, how would we differentiate a simple fact-based book about Japanese inventions from [[w:List of Japanese inventions and discoveries]]? Is it just formatting? I hope, by the way, this questioning is not taken as combative or disruptive—I personally benefit from clarity in guidelines, and I hope this will be helpful for others as well! —[[User:Kittycataclysm|Kittycataclysm]] ([[User talk:Kittycataclysm|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kittycataclysm|contribs]]) 19:08, 7 May 2024 (UTC) == Requested move == There is no clear reason why [[Wikibooks:What is Wikibooks]] and [[Wikibooks:What is Wikijunior]] don't have the question mark after their titles, and instead uses {{tlx|displaytitle}} to make them look like they do.

Administrators have the added abilities of being able to delete pages and block users for a specified period of time. Administrators are not granted any extra authority; they must follow all policies. == Actions == Administrators can perform the following special actions, which include but are not limited to: * Delete and undelete pages, and view deleted revisions of pages. * Block and unblock users, temporary accounts, individual IP addresses, and IP ranges. * Protect and unprotect pages, and edit [[Wikibooks:Protection policy#Full protection|fully protected pages]]. * [[Help:Tracking changes#Reviewing pages|Configure the stable version of a page, and review changes]]. * Edit most pages in the [[:mw:Help:System message|MediaWiki namespace]].<ref>Only [[Wikibooks:Interface administrators|interface administrators]] can edit CSS and JS pages in the MediaWiki namespace.</ref> * Create or modify [[Wikibooks:Edit filter|edit filters]]. * Add and remove users from some [[Wikibooks:User groups|user groups]], such as [[Wikibooks:Reviewers|reviewer]] and [[Wikibooks:Uploaders|uploader]]. * Perform other special rights listed at [[Special:ListGroupRights#sysop]]. == Becoming an administrator == Administrators will only be created after a discussion at [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]] results in a consensus of acceptance. Wikibookians may either request permissions themselves, or be nominated by another. A user nominated to become an administrator must accept the nomination explicitly, either on [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]] or on their user talk page before the discussion begins. While there are no specific requirements for a user to become an administrator, they should be "well-known and trusted" members of the community, and expected to be familiar with policies, such as (but not limited to) [[Wikibooks:Blocking policy|blocking]], [[Wikibooks:Deletion policy|deleting/undeleting]], and [[Wikibooks:Protection policy|protecting]]. Requests for adminship generally should be advertised using the {{tlx|RfA notice}} template on the [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice|sitenotice]]. == Removing an administrator == Administrators can be nominated for removal (also known as de-adminship) at [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]]. === Inactive administrators === {{shortcut|WB:INACTIVEADMIN}} Administrators that have made zero edits ''and'' zero logged actions in the span of one year (or more) will be listed under the removal section of [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]], where they are given two weeks to respond so they can retain their administrative privileges, unless they specify otherwise. After listing the inactive administrators, they must be notified on their user talk pages. If no response is received in two weeks, a request will be forwarded to the removal section of [[:m:Steward requests/Permissions]], where a steward will remove the rights. === Voluntary removal === Sysops requesting de-adminship themselves will have that request granted immediately, not being subject to community approval. Should a sysop have his/her privileges removed, the user may re-apply for adminship at a later date without prejudice. == Temporary administrators == {{shortcut|WB:TEMPADMIN}} Temporary administrators are users that are given adminship on a temporary basis. Typically, adminship is granted to perform specialist tasks that only administrators can perform, but would likely be too cumbersome or difficult for permanent administrators to do so. Temporary administrators must apply at [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]] in the usual fashion, with the following differences: * If candidates lack experience on English Wikibooks, experience and trust on other Wikimedia Foundation projects can be highly relevant. * Candidates should describe the precise tasks for which they need administrator-only rights, if this is proposed. * Following a consensus to promote, adminship should only be granted for the shortest duration needed. Renewals can be requested at [[Wikibooks:Requests for permissions]]. Temporary administrators should only use administrator-only rights for the tasks specified at their request for permissions, unless in an emergency. Since they will have access to the entire administrator abilities, they must take care to avoid using administrator-only rights outside of their stated tasks. The temporary admin may ask any permanent administrator for clarifications on what they are allowed/not allowed to do, and can ask any permanent administrator for permission to amend their conditions if needed (for instance, if they need to do something not originally approved). Any permanent administrator may request a steward to perform de-adminship immediately if there is any evidence that administrator-only rights are being used outside of the agreed tasks without good reason. If possible this should be discussed with the temporary admin first but in the event that the permanent administrator has reason to believe that the actions are significantly disruptive then they may ask the Steward to act immediately. == List of administrators == Temporary administrators are not included in this list, see ''[[#Non-regular administrators|Non-regular administrators]]'' below.<ref>An asterisk (*) indicates that the user is a temporary administrator due to [[:m:MVR|minimum voting requirements]], but is not under the [[#Temporary administrators|temporary administrator policy]].</ref> # {{admin|Atcovi}} # {{admin|Codename Noreste}} # {{admin|JJPMaster}} # {{admin|JackPotte}} # {{admin|Kittycataclysm}} # {{admin|Leaderboard}} # {{admin|MarcGarver}} # {{admin|SHB2000}} # {{admin|TunnelESON}} # {{admin|Xania}} === Non-regular administrators === This wiki allows [[:m:Global sysops|global sysops]] (and by extension, [[m:Stewards|stewards]]) to perform nearly all admin actions here, pursuant to the [[Wikibooks:Global rights policy|global rights policy]]. * Current global sysops can be found at [[Special:GlobalUsers/global-sysop]]. == Timeline of positions == {{AdminsChart}} == Notes == <references/> {{User groups}} {{Wikibooks policies and guidelines}} 19mj3153ly33hxrctlulnc6efgp8ukw 0 94070 4653320 4111276 2026-07-08T14:08:39Z Sharolyn8380 3612398 /* Careers in Bedside Nursing */ I added a new section about Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) under the nursing careers article. The section explains the CNA role, common patient care duties, training requirements, supervision by licensed nurses, and how CNA training can serve as an entry-level pathway into nursing. In addition, I corrected several spelling mistakes that were present in the article to improve readability and accuracy. 4653320 wikitext text/x-wiki This page is part of the [[Careers]] Wikibook. Nursing is the science of providing nursing care to patients. This includes performing health assessments, providing patient education, administering medications and assisting in procedures. Standards of nursing practice varies from country to country. This article focuses on nursing in the United States. Standards of nursing education and practice are similar, but not identical, in other developed countries. == Practical Nursing == Licensed Practical Nurses (called Licensed Vocational Nurses in California and Texas) are nurses that provide basic nursing care under the supervision of a Registered Nurse, physician or other practitioner. They are the closest equivalent to Registered Practical Nurses in Canada, in Germany, in Yugoslavia, in Atlantis, or Enrolled Nurses in Australia. === Education === LPNs usually complete a twelve to eighteen month course at a local community college. This leads to a certificate or diploma in Practical Nursing. After completing the program, the student must take and pass NCLEX-PN. Passing NCLEX-PN gives the title of Licensed Practical Nurse or Licensed Vocational Nurse to the new nurse, along with his/her nursing license. === Scope of Practice === LPNs have a more restricted scope of practice when compared to Registered Nurses. This varies greatly from state to state. In most states, LPNs cannot administer chemotherapy or give blood products to a patient. Many states require LPNs to complete additional training to start intravenous lines, or IVs. Other restrictions include not being able to accept verbal orders from a physician, not being able to pronounce someone dead or deliver IV push medications. LPNs are rarely allowed to triage (determine how urgent a patient's condition is to decide how long a patient must wait to see a doctor) patients in an Emergency Room setting. LPNs must be supervised by a Registered Nurse or other clinician. If an LPN makes a serious mistake while being supervised by a Registered Nurse, the Registered Nurse may also loose his or her license. Therefore LPNs as well as Registered Nurses must know LPN scope of practice. === Employment & Compensation === LPNs are becoming less and less common in hospitals. However, LPNs provide the majority of nursing care in skilled nursing facilities or nursing homes. It is also not uncommon to find LPNs working in correctional nursing or in home health. Nursing homes usually have the highest hourly rate. An LPN can expect to make $12.00 to $22.00 an hour, depending on experience, location and setting. The median salary, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, was $33,970 per year in 2004. The median salary in nursing homes was $35,460. == Registered Nursing == Registered Nurses provide the majority of nursing care nation wide. RNs are flexible health professionals that serve in many capacities. === Education === Education for RNs is a hotly debated issue within the nursing community. Currently there are three routes of entry into Registered Nursing. Diploma, Associate's and Bachelor's. The original point of entry was a Diploma. Currently, the American Nursing Association (ANA) recommends that a Bachelor's Degree be the standard point of entry into Registered Nursing. All nurses must take NCLEX-RN prior to practicing as an RN, regardless of education. Advocates for keeping the Associate's and diplomas in place often point to the fact that all three types of students - diploma, Associate's and Bachelor's - point to the fact all must pass the same test. ==== Diploma ==== Diplomas were the original standard of education for RNs. Today, it is the least common preparation route. A Diploma is usually awarded by a hospital-based school of nursing. Diploma programs are noted for their more "hands on" approach when compared to Associate's or Bachelor's nurses, meaning students get more clinical time. Diploma programs usually last two or three years. ==== Associate's ==== Associate's Degrees (AAS, ASN, ADN) are the most popular route of entry into nursing. It is a two year course of study, usually at a local community college. These are popular because they are cheaper for the student, take less time and are more convenient (the community college is often closer than a university). ==== Bachelor's ==== Bachelor's Degrees (BS, BSN) are considered a higher level of bedside nursing. It is a standard four year course of study. In addition to the Associate's Degree classes, Bachelor's Degree students are usually required to take a larger amount of liberal arts classes, nursing leadership/management classes and more science related classes (i.e., more biology or chemistry courses). A BSN is often required to be a Nurse Manager or Nursing Supervisor. === Scope of Practice === An RN has a wider scope of practice when compared to an LPN. An RN does not need to practice under the supervision of another health care professional. RNs can triage patients in the Emergency Room, start IVs, perform patient assessments, administer medications (intravenously, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, orally, intranasally, sub-lingually) and report findings to a physician. RNs cannot prescribe medications, diagnose a patient with a medical diagnosis, admit patients to a hospital and other similar duties usually performed by a physicians. An RN, along with an LPN, can choose to administer medications on a <i>pro re nata</i>, or PRN, basis. For example, an order that reads "Sonata 5 mg po prn insomnia nmt qd" would be read as "Administer 5 mg of Sonata by mouth as needed for insomnia, not more than once a day". An RN would decide when and if to administer the medication to the patient. An RN can also decide to hold medications as needed. For example, if an RN is supposed to administer an Alpha blocker (a type of medicine used to lower blood pressure) and he notices his patient's blood pressure is low, he may decide not to administer that medication. This, however, usually requires approval from a physician. RNs must also be able to recognize adverse reactions to medications. RNs should, ideally, be able to assess a patient's health as well as a physician can. This is because a physician can rarely perform a complete assessment on all of his or her patients. It's the RNs responsibility to carefully assess her patient's health and document her findings so the doctor can quickly review her notes. === Employment & Compensation === Due to the nursing shortage, RNs are usually able to easily find jobs. RNs most often employed in hospitals, however they also work in nursing homes, in home health, in public health, in prisons and in schools. A RN can usually expect to earn from $22.50 to $45.00 an hour in pay, depending on education, experience, certifications, location and setting. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median RN salary was $52,330 a year in 2004. The highest paying position was an "agency" nurse (a nurse who is placed on a casual basis into a hospital by a third party agency who pays the nurse) and the lowest paid were aged care facility nurses. == Careers in Bedside Nursing == Bedside nursing refers to LPNs and RNs working as staff nurses in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities (nursing homes/long term care centers) and outpatient surgical centers. Careers as an LPN are much more limited when compared to an RN's possibilities. ==== Certified Nursing Assistants ==== Certified Nursing Assistants, often called CNAs, provide basic [[Patient Safety and Quality Care in Nursing|patient care]] under the supervision of licensed nurses<ref>{{Citation |last=Rn) |first=Open Resources for Nursing (Open |title=Foundational Concepts |date=2022 |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK599383/ |work=Nursing Assistant [Internet] |access-date=2026-07-08 |publisher=Chippewa Valley Technical College |language=en |last2=Reuter-Sandquist |first2=Myra |last3=Ernstmeyer |first3=Kimberly |last4=Christman |first4=Elizabeth}}</ref>.

CNA training is often used as an entry point into healthcare for people who want direct patient care experience before pursuing practical nursing or registered nursing. Training requirements vary by state, but approved programs usually include classroom instruction, skills practice, and supervised clinical experience<ref>{{Cite web |last=Marketing |first=Clients |date=2026-06-22 |title=Accelerated CNA Programs for Working Professionals in GA |url=https://1sttreasurecharacenters.com/blogs/accelerated-cna-programs-for-working-professionals-in-ga |access-date=2026-07-08 |website=1st Treasure Chara Centers |language=en-US}}</ref>. Some programs are offered in accelerated, evening, weekend, or hybrid formats for working adults, but hands-on skills labs and clinical practice are still required because CNA work involves physical patient care<ref>{{Cite web |title=42 CFR 483.152 -- Requirements for approval of a nurse aide training and competency evaluation program. |url=https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-42/part-483/section-483.152 |access-date=2026-07-08 |website=www.ecfr.gov |language=en}}</ref>. Important CNA skills include infection control, safe patient transfers, body mechanics, communication, resident rights, and accurate vital sign measurement. After completing an approved program, candidates usually need to pass a state competency exam before being listed on the state nurse aide registry. === Careers for LPNs === ==== Skilled Nursing Facilities ==== LPNs provide most nursing care in skilled nursing facilities. LPNs commonly administer medications, dress wounds, treat minor cuts and bruises and assist with a patient's hygienic care if needed. LPNs may sometimes supervise Certified Nursing Assistants, who provide most the patient's hygienic care. Skilled Nursing Facilities usually pay more than any other field open to LPNs, making it one of the most popular fields for them. RNs usually serve as the shift supervisor and as administrators in the nursing management department, leaving little room for the LPN to move up. ==== Hospitals ==== LPNs are becoming less and less common in hospitals. Many hospitals do not hire any more LPNs, replacing retiring LPNs with RNs. When they do work in hospitals, LPNs are most commonly found on Medical/Surgical Floors or in the Operating Room. Medical/Surgical floors are the basic standard of care in hospitals. These patients have a medical or surgical problem that is not serious enough to be admitted to an Intensive Care Unit, but not well enough to stay at home. Nurses on these floors perform assessments, administer medications, decide when and if to administer PRN medications, alert physicians to any changes and provide patient education. LPNs usually function in this role alongside RNs. However, since LPNs cannot (usually) start IVs, give medications IV push, give blood products, administer chemotherapy or perform initial assessments, they may serve as a "Medication Nurse", a nurse that administers various medications for other nurse's patients. In the Operating Room, LPNs serve as the scrub nurse. The scrub nurse accompanies the surgeon to the sterile field and passes instruments and medications to him. He or she may be asked to assist the surgeon, by holding a surgical site open, providing suction or other similar tasks. Serving as the circulating nurse is usually not in the LPN's scope of practice. The circulating nurse prepares medication, completes documentation, assists the anesthesia provider, helps transport the patient to the recovery room and gives report to the recovery room nurse. RNs, LPNs and Certified Surgical Technologists all may compete for the role of the scrub nurse/tech. Generally, LPNs are no longer permitted to work in the Intensive Care, Obstetrics Units, Psychiatric Units or other specialty units. However, LPNs still work in the Emergency Room in some hospitals. Hospitals generally are not popular with LPNs because, when they do hire them, they hire them at a salary lower than those offered at skilled nursing facilities. ==== Doctor's Offices ==== LPNs are fairly common at doctor's offices. Here, they give injections, take medical histories, assist in examinations, assist in taking X-Rays, draw blood and other similar tasks. If the doctor's office performs surgery on-site, the LPN may assist the physician during the surgery. Medical Assistants, unlicensed personnel trained to both assist the physician in clinical practice and as administrative assistants, are very common in doctor's offices. There is no standardization of Medical Assistant training. Some have only on-the-job training from the doctor, some may have certificate courses that took a few months to complete and some may have Associate's Degrees. However, both LPNs and RNs have more training in the clinical aspect of working in a doctor's office. LPNs are often assigned to supervise the Medical Assistants. It's only not uncommon to see an LPN as the office manager - ordering supplies, recruiting new staff members, orienting new nurses/medical assistants and other similar tasks. Doctor's office pay is generally much lower than other specialties. They remain somewhat popular, however, because most offices do not require the nurse to be on-call, take overtime or work weekends, nights or holidays, like a hospital or skilled nursing facility might. === Careers for RNs === ==== Skilled Nursing Facilities ==== RNs must work in Skilled Nursing Facilities to supervise the LPNs. RNs usually do not have very much patient contact in this setting. RNs are generally the equivalent of supervisors in this setting, supervising both LPNs and CNAs. They maintain documentation (especially documenting the use of narcotic pain relievers), supervise the staff, assist with IVs and perform life support when needed. This is generally not a very popular field with RNs, due to the lack of patient contact. However, it is fairly easy to become the Director of Nursing at a Skilled Nursing Facility. Whereas hospitals might require a Master's Degree to become an executive in the nursing department, Skilled Nursing Facilities might just require an RN license, meaning diploma and ASN prepared nurses are eligible for the job as well. ==== Hospitals ==== The vast majority of RNs work in hospitals. RNs provide care in almost every department of the hospital. A partial list is available. <b>Medical/Surgical</b>: Administer medications, perform assessments, alert physicians of any problems, provide patient education, collect lab samples and other similar tasks. Most of a hospital's nurses work on these floors. Floors can also specialize, becoming Pediatric, Respiratory, Oncology and other similar floors. The RNs duties vary from specialty to specialty. An RN can be certified by earning the RN,C, (Registered Nurse, Certified) RN,BC (Registered Nurse, Board Certified) or CMSRN (Certified Medical/Surgical Registered Nurse) credentials. It's very important for Medical/Surgical RNs to be able to prioritize patients well. Since the nurse may have anywhere from five to ten patients, it's critical that she can differentiate between minor, moderate and severe problems. <b>Operating Room</b>: The RN may work as either the scrub nurse or the circulating nurse. The scrub nurse assists the surgeon at the field by passing him instruments and medications and sometimes assisting in surgery by holding a surgical site open or by providing suction. The circulating nurse must be an RN, not an LPN, in most states. The circulating nurse assists the anesthesia provider, prepares medications and documents the case. An RN can become certified in "Perioperative Nursing" by earning the CNOR ("Certified Nurse of the Operating Room") credential. <b>Intensive Care</b>: Intensive Care units are where the sickest patients in the hospital go. Patients in the Intensive Care unit have serious multi-system illnesses. They often have multiple IVs, are on several medications and may or may not be on ventilators. Patients in these areas have suffered from heart attacks, strokes, drug overdoses, traumas, gunshot wounds and other serious illnesses and injuries. RNs here must be well organized and be able to assess patients quickly and accurately. Intensive Care units usually specialize. Common units include MICU (Medical Intensive Care Unit), SICU (Surgical Intensive Care Unit), PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit), NICU (Neuro Intensive Care Unit) and ICN (Intensive Care Nursery). <b>Emergency Room</b>: RNs in the Emergency Room must be able to prioritize well. RNs are usually the Triage Nurses in the ER - LPNs are generally not permitted to serve in this role. The Triage Nurse takes the patients symptoms and decides how urgent it is for the physician to see the patient. For example, a patient that isn't breathing might be Critical, a patient having a heart attack might be Severe, a patient bleeding might be Moderate and a broken bone might be Non-Urgent. <b>Other Areas</b>: The RN might also work in the Cardiac Cath Lab, Obstetrics floor and various other areas. {{BookCat}} s3wbizeu3b8g10r2gonytkkti1mnieu 4 112405 4653378 4642200 2026-07-09T04:23:53Z Codename Noreste 3441010 /* A question about the user right move-subpages */ new topic ([[mw:c:Special:MyLanguage/User:JWBTH/CD|CD]]) 4653378 wikitext text/x-wiki __NEWSECTIONLINK__ {{Discussion Rooms}} {{Shortcut|WB:CHAT|WB:RR/G|WB:GENERAL}} {{TOC left|limit=3}} {{User:MiszaBot/config |archive = Wikibooks:Reading room/Archives/%(year)d/%(monthname)s |algo = old(60d) |counter = 1 |minthreadstoarchive = 1 |minthreadsleft = 1 |key = 7a0ac23cf8049e4d9ff70cabb5649d1a }} Welcome to the '''General reading room'''.

Bb5 · Rossolimo attack == This is the chief alternative 3. d4. White's bishop on b5 pressures Black's knight and therefore its control of the centre. By prioritising the development of their kingside, White is ready to castle with plans of d3 (now that the light square bishop has been developed outside of the pawn chain) or d4 (supported by Re1 and c3). In general White is happy to trade the bishop for the knight if they can leave Black with doubled pawns: they may do so immediately or wait until provoked. Black's main two options are '''3...g6''' and '''3...e6'''. [[/3...g6|'''3...g6''']], the '''fianchetto variation''', intends ...Bg7. On g7, the bishop will help control the centre and make it more difficult for White to achieve d4. Typical ideas are 4. O-O Bg7 5. Re1 (supporting the e-pawn) Nf6, where both 6. c3 (intending 7. d4) and 6. e5 are threatened; and 4. Bxc6 dxc6, damaging Black's queenside structure but allowing the queen and bishop to access the centre, leading to 5. O-O Bg7 6. d3 Nf6; or the immediate 4. c3. [[/3...e6|'''3...e6''']] is second most common reply. This opens the a3-f8 diagonal for the king's bishop, but the more immediate purpose is to prepare 4...Nge7 to defend the knight. After 4. O-O Nge7 5. Re1 a6 6. Bf1!, the knight supports a break in the centre, 6...d5 7. exd5 Nxd5. A sideline is to play 4. Bxc6 before Black has chance to get in ...Nge7. '''3...d6''' is the third most common try. It transposes into a sideline of the Moscow attack otherwise reached after [[Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...c5/2. Nf3/2...d6/3. Bb5/3...Nc6|1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. Bb5+ Nc6!?]]. The idea is to unpin the knight with ...Bd7: 4. O-O Bd7 5. Re1 a6 6. Bf1. === Other tries === '''3...Qb6!?''' intends to avoid doubled pawns by allowing the queen to recapture on c6. '''3...Nf6''' (attacking e4) 4. Nc3 avoids lines where White plays c3. 4. d3?! Qa5+ 5. Nc3 Nd4 6. Ba4 b5 7. Bb3 Nxb3 8. cxb3 is hardly what any Rossolimo player would hope for. Black sometimes tries the manoeuvre '''3...Nd4!?''' 4. Nxd4 cxd4. So long as White avoids 5. d3? Qa5+!, this is not so challenging. '''3...g5?''' is a sharp gambit pioneered by Evgeny Egorov.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttBNG7eTbhU ''Silicon Road: Blitzing out Crazy Leela ideas on Lichess! 3.Bb5 Sicilian?

Bb5 is analogous to the Moscow attack, 2...d6 Bb5, which is also sometimes named after Rossolimo. The Rossolimo is very popular at the highest levels of chess, where it is a way to avoid facing the sharp and theoretical Sveshnikov Sicilian, 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5.

As a multitasking OS, it allows multiple processes to share processors (CPUs) and other system resources. Each CPU executes a single task at a time. However, multitasking allows each processor to switch between tasks that are being executed without having to wait for each task to finish. For that, the kernel can, at any time, temporarily interrupt a task being carried out by the processor, and replace it by another task that can be new or a previously suspended one. The operation involving the swapping of the running task is called ''{{w|context switch}}''. == Execution == ⚲ API ↪ ⚙️ implementations {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|execve}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_execveat_common}} runs an executable file in the context of current process, replacing the previous executable.

The {{w|Executable and Linkable Format|ELF}} binary format is loaded by {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/binfmt_elf.c}}. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clone}}. Clone creates a child process that may share parts of its execution context with the parent. It is often used to implement threads (though programmers will typically use a higher-level interface such as {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|pthreads}}, implemented on top of clone). {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|wait}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|kernel_waitid}} suspends the execution of the calling process until one of its child processes terminates. Syscall {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|getpid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_tgid_vnr}} returns PID of the current process which internally is called TGID - thread group id. A process can contain many threads. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|gettid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_pid_vnr}} returns thread id. Which internally is historically called PID. ⚠️ Warning: confusion.

It usually has the ability to pause a running process, move it to the back of the running queue and start a new process. Active processes are placed in an array called a ''{{w|run queue}}'', or ''runqueue'' - {{The Linux Kernel/id|rq}}. The run queue may contain priority values for each process, which will be used by the scheduler to determine which process to run next. To ensure each program has a fair share of resources, each one is run for some time period (quantum) before it is paused and placed back into the run queue. When a program is stopped to let another run, the program with the highest priority in the run queue is then allowed to execute. Processes are also removed from the run queue when they ask to ''sleep'', are waiting on a resource to become available, or have been terminated. Since version 6.6 the Linux kernel uses the {{w|Earliest eligible virtual deadline first scheduling}} (EEVDF) algorithm, which replaced the {{w|Completely Fair Scheduler}} (CFS). While much of the CFS infrastructure remains: {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}, the red-black tree, load balancing, and {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/sched/fair.c}} &mdash; the task selection logic is fundamentally different. EEVDF is based on a classic scheduling algorithm originally designed for packet networks. The scheduler has a scheduling complexity of O(log N), where N is the number of tasks in the runqueue. Both picking and reinserting a task require O(log N) operations, because the run queue is implemented as a {{w|red–black tree}}. The runqueue ({{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}) is implemented as a red-black tree representing a "timeline" of future task execution. The scheduler uses nanosecond granularity accounting and requires no heuristics or interactivity estimators. EEVDF improves sleeper fairness over CFS by tracking ''lag'' ({{The Linux Kernel/id|vlag}}) &mdash; the difference between the service a task was entitled to and the service it actually received. When a sleeping task wakes up, its lag determines eligibility, ensuring interactive tasks get prompt service without starving long-running tasks. The data structure used for the scheduling algorithm is a red-black tree in which the nodes are {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}} structures, embedded in {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_struct}}. With EEVDF, each task has a time slice ({{The Linux Kernel/id|sysctl_sched_base_slice}}, default 0.7ms) that determines its request length. EEVDF computes a virtual deadline for each task: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i, where ve_i is the eligible time, r_i is the request size, and w_i is the weight (determined by nice value). The scheduler picks the eligible task with the earliest virtual deadline via {{The Linux Kernel/id|__pick_eevdf}}. The Linux kernel contains different scheduler classes (or policies). The EEVDF scheduler handles {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_NORMAL}} (aka SCHED_OTHER). The kernel also contains two additional classes {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_BATCH}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_IDLE}}, and another two real-time scheduling classes named {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_FIFO}} (realtime first-in-first-out) and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_RR}} (realtime round-robin), with a third realtime scheduling policy known as {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_DEADLINE}} that implements the {{w|Earliest deadline first scheduling|earliest deadline first algorithm (EDF)}} added later. Any realtime scheduler class takes precedence over any of the "normal" &mdash;i.e. non realtime&mdash; classes. The scheduler class is selected and configured through the {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|sched_setscheduler}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_sched_setscheduler}} system call.

This is essential for ensuring that high-priority tasks receive the necessary CPU time and for improving the system's responsiveness. In Linux, preemption models define how and when the kernel can preempt tasks.

They are used throughout the kernel to wait for available memory, I/O completion, message arrival, and many other things. In the early days of Linux, a wait queue was a simple list of waiting processes, but various scalability problems (including the {{w|thundering herd problem}}) have led to the addition of a fair amount of complexity since then. ⚲ API {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/wait.h}} {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_head}} consists of double linked list of {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_entry}} and a spinlock.

When one thread starts executing the critical section (serialized segment of the program) the other thread should wait until the first thread finishes. If proper synchronization techniques are not applied, it may cause a race condition where, the values of variables may be unpredictable and vary depending on the timings of context switches of the processes or threads. === User space synchronization === ==== POSIX Timers ==== ⚲ APIs : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_create}} – creates a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_settime}} – starts or modifies a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_gettime}} – retrieves the remaining time of a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_delete}} – deletes a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clock_nanosleep}} – suspends execution for a specified time ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/posix-timers.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/itimer.c}} &ndash; interval timer (setitimer/getitimer) : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-timers.c}} &ndash; POSIX clock and timer operations : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-cpu-timers.c}} &ndash; per-process/thread CPU timers :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|posix_cpu_timer_set}} – function setting up CPU timers ==== Futex ==== A {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|futex}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_futex}} (short for "Fast User space muTex") is a kernel system call that programmers can use to implement basic locking, or as a building block for higher-level locking abstractions such as semaphores and POSIX mutexes or condition variables. A futex consists of a kernel space ''wait queue'' that is attached to an aligned integer in user space. Multiple processes or threads operate on the integer entirely in user space (using atomic operations to avoid interfering with one another), and only resort to relatively expensive system calls to request operations on the wait queue (for example to wake up waiting processes, or to put the current process on the wait queue). A properly programmed futex-based lock will not use system calls except when the lock is contended; since most operations do not require arbitration between processes, this will not happen in most cases. The basic operations of futexes are based on only two central operations {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wait}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wake}} though implementation has more operations for more specialized cases. : WAIT (''addr'', ''val'') checks if the value stored at the address ''addr'' is ''val'', and if it is puts the current thread to sleep. : WAKE (''addr'', ''val'') wakes up ''val'' number of threads waiting on the address ''addr''. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|uapi/linux/futex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/futex.h}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/futex}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#futex stress-ng --futex] 📖 References : {{w|Futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Futex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#futex-api-reference}} : {{The Linux Kernel/ltp|kernel/syscalls|futex}} ==== File locking ==== ⚲ API: {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|flock}} ==== Semaphore ==== 💾 ''History: Semaphore is part of System V IPC {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|sysvipc}}'' ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semget}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semctl}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semop}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|ipc/sem.c}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#sem stress-ng --sem] === Kernel space synchronization === For kernel mode synchronization Linux provides three categories of locking primitives: sleeping, per CPU local locks and spinning locks. ==== Read-Copy-Update ==== Common mechanism to solve the readers–writers problem is the {{w|read-copy-update}} (''RCU'') algorithm. Read-copy-update implements a kind of mutual exclusion that is wait-free (non-blocking) for readers, allowing extremely low overhead. However, RCU updates can be expensive, as they must leave the old versions of the data structure in place to accommodate pre-existing readers. ⚲ The core API in {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} is quite small: : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_lock}} marks an RCU-protected data structure so that it won't be reclaimed for the full duration of that critical section. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_unlock}} is used by a reader to inform the reclaimer that the reader is exiting an RCU read-side critical section. Note that RCU read-side critical sections may be nested and/or overlapping. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|synchronize_rcu}} blocks until all pre-existing RCU read-side critical sections on all CPUs have completed. Note that <code>synchronize_rcu</code> will ''not'' necessarily wait for any subsequent RCU read-side critical sections to complete. For example, consider the following sequence of events: {| class="wikitable" ! !CPU 0 !CPU 1 !CPU 2 |- |1. |rcu_read_lock() | | |- |2. | |enters synchronize_rcu() | |- |3. | | | rcu_read_lock() |- |4. |rcu_read_unlock() | | |- |5. | |exits synchronize_rcu() | |- |6. | | |rcu_read_unlock() |} [[File:Rcu api.jpg|thumb|upright=2|RCU API communications between the reader, updater, and reclaimer]] :Since <code>synchronize_rcu</code> is the API that must figure out when readers are done, its implementation is key to RCU. For RCU to be useful in all but the most read-intensive situations, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>'s overhead must also be quite small. :Alternatively, instead of blocking, synchronize_rcu may register a callback to be invoked after all ongoing RCU read-side critical sections have completed. This callback variant is called {{The Linux Kernel/id|call_rcu}} in the Linux kernel. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_assign_pointer}} - The updater uses this function to assign a new value to an RCU-protected pointer, in order to safely communicate the change in value from the updater to the reader. This function returns the new value, and also executes any {{w|Memory barrier}} instructions required for a given CPU architecture. Perhaps more importantly, it serves to document which pointers are protected by RCU. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_dereference}} - The reader uses this function to fetch an RCU-protected pointer, which returns a value that may then be safely dereferenced. It also executes any directives required by the compiler or the CPU, for example, a volatile cast for gcc, a memory_order_consume load for C/C++11 or the memory-barrier instruction required by the old DEC Alpha CPU. The value returned by <code>rcu_dereference</code> is valid only within the enclosing RCU read-side critical section. As with <code>rcu_assign_pointer</code>, an important function of <code>rcu_dereference</code> is to document which pointers are protected by RCU. The RCU infrastructure observes the time sequence of <code>rcu_read_lock</code>, <code>rcu_read_unlock</code>, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>, and <code>call_rcu</code> invocations in order to determine when (1) <code>synchronize_rcu</code> invocations may return to their callers and (2) <code>call_rcu</code> callbacks may be invoked. Efficient implementations of the RCU infrastructure make heavy use of batching in order to amortize their overhead over many uses of the corresponding APIs. ⚲ API : [https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#:~:text=rcu_nocbs%5B rcu_nocbs] &ndash; no-callback CPUs : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rculist.h}} &ndash; RCU-protected linked list operations ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/rcu}} &ndash; read-copy-update implementation 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Avoiding Locks: Read Copy Update|kernel-hacking/locking.html?#avoiding-locks-read-copy-update}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|RCU concepts|RCU}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/Initialization/linux-initialization-9.html RCU initialization] 📚 Further reading : [https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1906/attachments/1590/3302/LPC-2024-Vienna.pdf Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency] ==== Sleeping locks ==== ===== Mutexes ===== ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/mutex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/completion.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|mutex}} has owner and usage constraints, easier to debug than semaphore :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|rt_mutex}} blocking mutual exclusion locks with priority inheritance (PI) support :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|ww_mutex}} Wound/Wait mutexes: blocking mutual exclusion locks with deadlock avoidance : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rw_semaphore}} readers–writer semaphores : {{The Linux Kernel/id|percpu_rw_semaphore}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|completion}} - use completion for synchronization task with ISR and task or two tasks. :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_for_completion}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|complete}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#mutex stress-ng --mutex] 💾 ''Historical'' : {{The Linux Kernel/id|semaphore}} - use mutex instead semaphore if possible : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/semaphore.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rwsem.h}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Completions - “wait for completion” barrier APIs|scheduler/completion.html}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Mutex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#mutex-api-reference}} : [http://lwn.net/Articles/23993/ LWN: completion events] ==== per CPU local lock ==== On normal preemptible kernel local_lock calls {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_disable}}.

Since the thread remains active but is not performing a useful task, the use of such a lock is a kind of busy waiting. Once acquired, spinlocks will usually be held until they are explicitly released, although in some implementations they may be automatically released if the thread being waited on (that which holds the lock) blocks, or "goes to sleep". Spinlocks are commonly used inside kernels because they are efficient if threads are likely to be blocked for only short periods. However, spinlocks become wasteful if held for longer durations, as they may prevent other threads from running and require rescheduling. 👁 For example {{The Linux Kernel/id|kobj_kset_join}} uses spinlock to protect assess to the linked list. Enabling and disabling of kernel preemption replaced spinlocks on uniprocessor systems (disabled {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_SMP}}). Most spinning locks becoming sleeping locks in the {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT}} kernels. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|spinlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|raw_spinlock_t}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/bit_spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|bit_spin_lock}} 📖 References : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-1.html Introduction to spinlocks] : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-2.html Queued spinlocks] ===== {{w|Seqlock}}s ===== A ''seqlock'' (short for "sequential lock") is a special locking mechanism used in Linux for supporting fast writes of shared variables between two parallel operating system routines. It is a special solution to the readers–writers problem when the number of writers is small. It is a reader-writer consistent mechanism which avoids the problem of writer starvation. A {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} consists of storage for saving a sequence counter {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}}/seqcount_spinlock_t in addition to a lock. The lock is to support synchronization between two writers and the counter is for indicating consistency in readers. In addition to updating the shared data, the writer increments the sequence counter, both after acquiring the lock and before releasing the lock. Readers read the sequence counter before and after reading the shared data. If the sequence counter is odd on either occasion, a writer had taken the lock while the data was being read and it may have changed. If the sequence counters are different, a writer has changed the data while it was being read. In either case readers simply retry (using a loop) until they read the same even sequence counter before and after. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|DEFINE_SEQLOCK}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqlock_excl}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqlock}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_retry}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_end}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/seqlock.h}} 👁 Example: {{The Linux Kernel/id|mount_lock}}, defined in {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/namespace.c}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Sequence counters and sequential locks|locking/seqlock.html}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-6.html SeqLock] ==== Spinning or sleeping locks ==== :{| class="wikitable" ! !! normal !! on preempt RT |- | spinlock_t, || raw_spinlock_t || rt_mutex_base, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |- | rwlock_t || spinning || sleeping |- | local_lock || preempt_disable|| migrate_disable, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |} ==== Low level ==== The compiler might optimize away or reorder writes to variables leading to unexpected behavior when variables are accessed concurrently by multiple threads. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|asm-generic/rwonce.h}} &ndash;

As a multitasking OS, it allows multiple processes to share processors (CPUs) and other system resources. Each CPU executes a single task at a time. However, multitasking allows each processor to switch between tasks that are being executed without having to wait for each task to finish. For that, the kernel can, at any time, temporarily interrupt a task being carried out by the processor, and replace it by another task that can be new or a previously suspended one. The operation involving the swapping of the running task is called ''{{w|context switch}}''. == Execution == ⚲ API ↪ ⚙️ implementations {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|execve}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_execveat_common}} runs an executable file in the context of current process, replacing the previous executable. This system call is used by family of functions of libc {{The Linux Kernel/man|3|exec}}. The {{w|Executable and Linkable Format|ELF}} binary format is loaded by {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/binfmt_elf.c}}. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clone}}. Clone creates a child process that may share parts of its execution context with the parent. It is often used to implement threads (though programmers will typically use a higher-level interface such as {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|pthreads}}, implemented on top of clone). {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|wait}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|kernel_waitid}} suspends the execution of the calling process until one of its child processes terminates. Syscall {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|getpid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_tgid_vnr}} returns PID of the current process which internally is called TGID - thread group id. A process can contain many threads. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|gettid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_pid_vnr}} returns thread id. Which internally is historically called PID. ⚠️ Warning: confusion. User space PID ≠ kernel space PID. {{The Linux Kernel/man|1|ps}} -AF lists current processes and thread as {{w|Light-weight process|LWP}}. For a single thread process all these IDs are equal.

It usually has the ability to pause a running process, move it to the back of the running queue and start a new process. Active processes are placed in an array called a ''{{w|run queue}}'', or ''runqueue'' - {{The Linux Kernel/id|rq}}. The run queue may contain priority values for each process, which will be used by the scheduler to determine which process to run next. To ensure each program has a fair share of resources, each one is run for some time period (quantum) before it is paused and placed back into the run queue. When a program is stopped to let another run, the program with the highest priority in the run queue is then allowed to execute. Processes are also removed from the run queue when they ask to ''sleep'', are waiting on a resource to become available, or have been terminated. Since version 6.6 the Linux kernel uses the {{w|Earliest eligible virtual deadline first scheduling}} (EEVDF) algorithm, which replaced the {{w|Completely Fair Scheduler}} (CFS). While much of the CFS infrastructure remains: {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}, the red-black tree, load balancing, and {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/sched/fair.c}} &mdash; the task selection logic is fundamentally different. EEVDF is based on a classic scheduling algorithm originally designed for packet networks. The scheduler has a scheduling complexity of O(log N), where N is the number of tasks in the runqueue. Both picking and reinserting a task require O(log N) operations, because the run queue is implemented as a {{w|red–black tree}}. The runqueue ({{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}) is implemented as a red-black tree representing a "timeline" of future task execution. The scheduler uses nanosecond granularity accounting and requires no heuristics or interactivity estimators. EEVDF improves sleeper fairness over CFS by tracking ''lag'' ({{The Linux Kernel/id|vlag}}) &mdash; the difference between the service a task was entitled to and the service it actually received. When a sleeping task wakes up, its lag determines eligibility, ensuring interactive tasks get prompt service without starving long-running tasks. The data structure used for the scheduling algorithm is a red-black tree in which the nodes are {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}} structures, embedded in {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_struct}}. With EEVDF, each task has a time slice ({{The Linux Kernel/id|sysctl_sched_base_slice}}, default 0.7ms) that determines its request length. EEVDF computes a virtual deadline for each task: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i, where ve_i is the eligible time, r_i is the request size, and w_i is the weight (determined by nice value). The scheduler picks the eligible task with the earliest virtual deadline via {{The Linux Kernel/id|__pick_eevdf}}. The Linux kernel contains different scheduler classes (or policies). The EEVDF scheduler handles {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_NORMAL}} (aka SCHED_OTHER). The kernel also contains two additional classes {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_BATCH}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_IDLE}}, and another two real-time scheduling classes named {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_FIFO}} (realtime first-in-first-out) and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_RR}} (realtime round-robin), with a third realtime scheduling policy known as {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_DEADLINE}} that implements the {{w|Earliest deadline first scheduling|earliest deadline first algorithm (EDF)}} added later. Any realtime scheduler class takes precedence over any of the "normal" &mdash;i.e. non realtime&mdash; classes. The scheduler class is selected and configured through the {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|sched_setscheduler}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_sched_setscheduler}} system call. Properly balancing latency, throughput, and fairness in schedulers is an open problem.<ref name="malte" > Malte Skarupke.

This is essential for ensuring that high-priority tasks receive the necessary CPU time and for improving the system's responsiveness. In Linux, preemption models define how and when the kernel can preempt tasks.

When one thread starts executing the critical section (serialized segment of the program) the other thread should wait until the first thread finishes. If proper synchronization techniques are not applied, it may cause a race condition where, the values of variables may be unpredictable and vary depending on the timings of context switches of the processes or threads. === User space synchronization === ==== POSIX Timers ==== ⚲ APIs : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_create}} – creates a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_settime}} – starts or modifies a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_gettime}} – retrieves the remaining time of a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_delete}} – deletes a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clock_nanosleep}} – suspends execution for a specified time ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/posix-timers.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/itimer.c}} &ndash; interval timer (setitimer/getitimer) : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-timers.c}} &ndash; POSIX clock and timer operations : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-cpu-timers.c}} &ndash; per-process/thread CPU timers :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|posix_cpu_timer_set}} – function setting up CPU timers ==== Futex ==== A {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|futex}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_futex}} (short for "Fast User space muTex") is a kernel system call that programmers can use to implement basic locking, or as a building block for higher-level locking abstractions such as semaphores and POSIX mutexes or condition variables. A futex consists of a kernel space ''wait queue'' that is attached to an aligned integer in user space. Multiple processes or threads operate on the integer entirely in user space (using atomic operations to avoid interfering with one another), and only resort to relatively expensive system calls to request operations on the wait queue (for example to wake up waiting processes, or to put the current process on the wait queue). A properly programmed futex-based lock will not use system calls except when the lock is contended; since most operations do not require arbitration between processes, this will not happen in most cases. The basic operations of futexes are based on only two central operations {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wait}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wake}} though implementation has more operations for more specialized cases. : WAIT (''addr'', ''val'') checks if the value stored at the address ''addr'' is ''val'', and if it is puts the current thread to sleep. : WAKE (''addr'', ''val'') wakes up ''val'' number of threads waiting on the address ''addr''. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|uapi/linux/futex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/futex.h}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/futex}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#futex stress-ng --futex] 📖 References : {{w|Futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Futex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#futex-api-reference}} : {{The Linux Kernel/ltp|kernel/syscalls|futex}} ==== File locking ==== ⚲ API: {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|flock}} ==== Semaphore ==== 💾 ''History: Semaphore is part of System V IPC {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|sysvipc}}'' ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semget}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semctl}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semop}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|ipc/sem.c}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#sem stress-ng --sem] === Kernel space synchronization === For kernel mode synchronization Linux provides three categories of locking primitives: sleeping, per CPU local locks and spinning locks. ==== Read-Copy-Update ==== Common mechanism to solve the readers–writers problem is the {{w|read-copy-update}} (''RCU'') algorithm. Read-copy-update implements a kind of mutual exclusion that is wait-free (non-blocking) for readers, allowing extremely low overhead. However, RCU updates can be expensive, as they must leave the old versions of the data structure in place to accommodate pre-existing readers. ⚲ The core API in {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} is quite small: : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_lock}} marks an RCU-protected data structure so that it won't be reclaimed for the full duration of that critical section. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_unlock}} is used by a reader to inform the reclaimer that the reader is exiting an RCU read-side critical section. Note that RCU read-side critical sections may be nested and/or overlapping. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|synchronize_rcu}} blocks until all pre-existing RCU read-side critical sections on all CPUs have completed. Note that <code>synchronize_rcu</code> will ''not'' necessarily wait for any subsequent RCU read-side critical sections to complete. For example, consider the following sequence of events: {| class="wikitable" ! !CPU 0 !CPU 1 !CPU 2 |- |1. |rcu_read_lock() | | |- |2. | |enters synchronize_rcu() | |- |3. | | | rcu_read_lock() |- |4. |rcu_read_unlock() | | |- |5. | |exits synchronize_rcu() | |- |6. | | |rcu_read_unlock() |} [[File:Rcu api.jpg|thumb|upright=2|RCU API communications between the reader, updater, and reclaimer]] :Since <code>synchronize_rcu</code> is the API that must figure out when readers are done, its implementation is key to RCU. For RCU to be useful in all but the most read-intensive situations, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>'s overhead must also be quite small. :Alternatively, instead of blocking, synchronize_rcu may register a callback to be invoked after all ongoing RCU read-side critical sections have completed. This callback variant is called {{The Linux Kernel/id|call_rcu}} in the Linux kernel. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_assign_pointer}} - The updater uses this function to assign a new value to an RCU-protected pointer, in order to safely communicate the change in value from the updater to the reader. This function returns the new value, and also executes any {{w|Memory barrier}} instructions required for a given CPU architecture. Perhaps more importantly, it serves to document which pointers are protected by RCU. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_dereference}} - The reader uses this function to fetch an RCU-protected pointer, which returns a value that may then be safely dereferenced. It also executes any directives required by the compiler or the CPU, for example, a volatile cast for gcc, a memory_order_consume load for C/C++11 or the memory-barrier instruction required by the old DEC Alpha CPU. The value returned by <code>rcu_dereference</code> is valid only within the enclosing RCU read-side critical section. As with <code>rcu_assign_pointer</code>, an important function of <code>rcu_dereference</code> is to document which pointers are protected by RCU. The RCU infrastructure observes the time sequence of <code>rcu_read_lock</code>, <code>rcu_read_unlock</code>, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>, and <code>call_rcu</code> invocations in order to determine when (1) <code>synchronize_rcu</code> invocations may return to their callers and (2) <code>call_rcu</code> callbacks may be invoked. Efficient implementations of the RCU infrastructure make heavy use of batching in order to amortize their overhead over many uses of the corresponding APIs. ⚲ API : [https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#:~:text=rcu_nocbs%5B rcu_nocbs] &ndash; no-callback CPUs : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rculist.h}} &ndash; RCU-protected linked list operations ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/rcu}} &ndash; read-copy-update implementation 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Avoiding Locks: Read Copy Update|kernel-hacking/locking.html?#avoiding-locks-read-copy-update}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|RCU concepts|RCU}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/Initialization/linux-initialization-9.html RCU initialization] 📚 Further reading : [https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1906/attachments/1590/3302/LPC-2024-Vienna.pdf Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency] ==== Sleeping locks ==== ===== Mutexes ===== ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/mutex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/completion.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|mutex}} has owner and usage constraints, easier to debug than semaphore :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|rt_mutex}} blocking mutual exclusion locks with priority inheritance (PI) support :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|ww_mutex}} Wound/Wait mutexes: blocking mutual exclusion locks with deadlock avoidance : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rw_semaphore}} readers–writer semaphores : {{The Linux Kernel/id|percpu_rw_semaphore}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|completion}} - use completion for synchronization task with ISR and task or two tasks. :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_for_completion}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|complete}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#mutex stress-ng --mutex] 💾 ''Historical'' : {{The Linux Kernel/id|semaphore}} - use mutex instead semaphore if possible : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/semaphore.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rwsem.h}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Completions - “wait for completion” barrier APIs|scheduler/completion.html}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Mutex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#mutex-api-reference}} : [http://lwn.net/Articles/23993/ LWN: completion events] ==== per CPU local lock ==== On normal preemptible kernel local_lock calls {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_disable}}.

Since the thread remains active but is not performing a useful task, the use of such a lock is a kind of busy waiting. Once acquired, spinlocks will usually be held until they are explicitly released, although in some implementations they may be automatically released if the thread being waited on (that which holds the lock) blocks, or "goes to sleep". Spinlocks are commonly used inside kernels because they are efficient if threads are likely to be blocked for only short periods. However, spinlocks become wasteful if held for longer durations, as they may prevent other threads from running and require rescheduling. 👁 For example {{The Linux Kernel/id|kobj_kset_join}} uses spinlock to protect assess to the linked list. Enabling and disabling of kernel preemption replaced spinlocks on uniprocessor systems (disabled {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_SMP}}). Most spinning locks becoming sleeping locks in the {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT}} kernels. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|spinlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|raw_spinlock_t}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/bit_spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|bit_spin_lock}} 📖 References : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-1.html Introduction to spinlocks] : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-2.html Queued spinlocks] ===== {{w|Seqlock}}s ===== A ''seqlock'' (short for "sequential lock") is a special locking mechanism used in Linux for supporting fast writes of shared variables between two parallel operating system routines. It is a special solution to the readers–writers problem when the number of writers is small. It is a reader-writer consistent mechanism which avoids the problem of writer starvation. A {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} consists of storage for saving a sequence counter {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}}/seqcount_spinlock_t in addition to a lock. The lock is to support synchronization between two writers and the counter is for indicating consistency in readers. In addition to updating the shared data, the writer increments the sequence counter, both after acquiring the lock and before releasing the lock. Readers read the sequence counter before and after reading the shared data. If the sequence counter is odd on either occasion, a writer had taken the lock while the data was being read and it may have changed. If the sequence counters are different, a writer has changed the data while it was being read. In either case readers simply retry (using a loop) until they read the same even sequence counter before and after. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|DEFINE_SEQLOCK}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqlock_excl}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqlock}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_retry}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_end}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/seqlock.h}} 👁 Example: {{The Linux Kernel/id|mount_lock}}, defined in {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/namespace.c}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Sequence counters and sequential locks|locking/seqlock.html}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-6.html SeqLock] ==== Spinning or sleeping locks ==== :{| class="wikitable" ! !! normal !! on preempt RT |- | spinlock_t, || raw_spinlock_t || rt_mutex_base, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |- | rwlock_t || spinning || sleeping |- | local_lock || preempt_disable|| migrate_disable, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |} ==== Low level ==== The compiler might optimize away or reorder writes to variables leading to unexpected behavior when variables are accessed concurrently by multiple threads. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|asm-generic/rwonce.h}} &ndash;

As a multitasking OS, it allows multiple processes to share processors (CPUs) and other system resources. Each CPU executes a single task at a time. However, multitasking allows each processor to switch between tasks that are being executed without having to wait for each task to finish. For that, the kernel can, at any time, temporarily interrupt a task being carried out by the processor, and replace it by another task that can be new or a previously suspended one.

It usually has the ability to pause a running process, move it to the back of the running queue and start a new process. Active processes are placed in an array called a ''{{w|run queue}}'', or ''runqueue'' - {{The Linux Kernel/id|rq}}. The run queue may contain priority values for each process, which will be used by the scheduler to determine which process to run next. To ensure each program has a fair share of resources, each one is run for some time period (quantum) before it is paused and placed back into the run queue. When a program is stopped to let another run, the program with the highest priority in the run queue is then allowed to execute. Processes are also removed from the run queue when they ask to ''sleep'', are waiting on a resource to become available, or have been terminated. Since version 6.6 the Linux kernel uses the {{w|Earliest eligible virtual deadline first scheduling}} (EEVDF) algorithm, which replaced the {{w|Completely Fair Scheduler}} (CFS). While much of the CFS infrastructure remains: {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}, the red-black tree, load balancing, and {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/sched/fair.c}} &mdash; the task selection logic is fundamentally different. EEVDF is based on a classic scheduling algorithm originally designed for packet networks. The scheduler has a scheduling complexity of O(log N), where N is the number of tasks in the runqueue. Both picking and reinserting a task require O(log N) operations, because the run queue is implemented as a {{w|red–black tree}}. The runqueue ({{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}) is implemented as a red-black tree representing a "timeline" of future task execution. The scheduler uses nanosecond granularity accounting and requires no heuristics or interactivity estimators. EEVDF improves sleeper fairness over CFS by tracking ''lag'' ({{The Linux Kernel/id|vlag}}) &mdash; the difference between the service a task was entitled to and the service it actually received. When a sleeping task wakes up, its lag determines eligibility, ensuring interactive tasks get prompt service without starving long-running tasks. The data structure used for the scheduling algorithm is a red-black tree in which the nodes are {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}} structures, embedded in {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_struct}}. With EEVDF, each task has a time slice ({{The Linux Kernel/id|sysctl_sched_base_slice}}, default 0.7ms) that determines its request length. EEVDF computes a virtual deadline for each task: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i, where ve_i is the eligible time, r_i is the request size, and w_i is the weight (determined by nice value). The scheduler picks the eligible task with the earliest virtual deadline via {{The Linux Kernel/id|__pick_eevdf}}. The Linux kernel contains different scheduler classes (or policies). The EEVDF scheduler handles {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_NORMAL}} (aka SCHED_OTHER). The kernel also contains two additional classes {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_BATCH}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_IDLE}}, and another two real-time scheduling classes named {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_FIFO}} (realtime first-in-first-out) and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_RR}} (realtime round-robin), with a third realtime scheduling policy known as {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_DEADLINE}} that implements the {{w|Earliest deadline first scheduling|earliest deadline first algorithm (EDF)}} added later. Any realtime scheduler class takes precedence over any of the "normal" &mdash;i.e. non realtime&mdash; classes. The scheduler class is selected and configured through the {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|sched_setscheduler}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_sched_setscheduler}} system call. Properly balancing latency, throughput, and fairness in schedulers is an open problem.<ref name="malte" > Malte Skarupke.

This is essential for ensuring that high-priority tasks receive the necessary CPU time and for improving the system's responsiveness. In Linux, preemption models define how and when the kernel can preempt tasks.

They are used throughout the kernel to wait for available memory, I/O completion, message arrival, and many other things. In the early days of Linux, a wait queue was a simple list of waiting processes, but various scalability problems (including the {{w|thundering herd problem}}) have led to the addition of a fair amount of complexity since then. ⚲ API {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/wait.h}} {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_head}} consists of double linked list of {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_entry}} and a spinlock.

When one thread starts executing the critical section (serialized segment of the program) the other thread should wait until the first thread finishes. If proper synchronization techniques are not applied, it may cause a race condition where, the values of variables may be unpredictable and vary depending on the timings of context switches of the processes or threads. === User space synchronization === ==== POSIX Timers ==== ⚲ APIs : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_create}} – creates a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_settime}} – starts or modifies a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_gettime}} – retrieves the remaining time of a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_delete}} – deletes a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clock_nanosleep}} – suspends execution for a specified time ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/posix-timers.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/itimer.c}} &ndash; interval timer (setitimer/getitimer) : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-timers.c}} &ndash; POSIX clock and timer operations : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-cpu-timers.c}} &ndash; per-process/thread CPU timers :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|posix_cpu_timer_set}} – function setting up CPU timers ==== Futex ==== A {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|futex}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_futex}} (short for "Fast User space muTex") is a kernel system call that programmers can use to implement basic locking, or as a building block for higher-level locking abstractions such as semaphores and POSIX mutexes or condition variables. A futex consists of a kernel space ''wait queue'' that is attached to an aligned integer in user space. Multiple processes or threads operate on the integer entirely in user space (using atomic operations to avoid interfering with one another), and only resort to relatively expensive system calls to request operations on the wait queue (for example to wake up waiting processes, or to put the current process on the wait queue). A properly programmed futex-based lock will not use system calls except when the lock is contended; since most operations do not require arbitration between processes, this will not happen in most cases. The basic operations of futexes are based on only two central operations {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wait}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wake}} though implementation has more operations for more specialized cases. : WAIT (''addr'', ''val'') checks if the value stored at the address ''addr'' is ''val'', and if it is puts the current thread to sleep. : WAKE (''addr'', ''val'') wakes up ''val'' number of threads waiting on the address ''addr''. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|uapi/linux/futex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/futex.h}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/futex}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#futex stress-ng --futex] 📖 References : {{w|Futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Futex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#futex-api-reference}} : {{The Linux Kernel/ltp|kernel/syscalls|futex}} ==== File locking ==== ⚲ API: {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|flock}} ==== Semaphore ==== 💾 ''History: Semaphore is part of System V IPC {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|sysvipc}}'' ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semget}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semctl}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semop}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|ipc/sem.c}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#sem stress-ng --sem] === Kernel space synchronization === For kernel mode synchronization Linux provides three categories of locking primitives: sleeping, per CPU local locks and spinning locks. ==== Read-Copy-Update ==== Common mechanism to solve the readers–writers problem is the {{w|read-copy-update}} (''RCU'') algorithm. Read-copy-update implements a kind of mutual exclusion that is wait-free (non-blocking) for readers, allowing extremely low overhead. However, RCU updates can be expensive, as they must leave the old versions of the data structure in place to accommodate pre-existing readers. ⚲ The core API in {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} is quite small: : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_lock}} marks an RCU-protected data structure so that it won't be reclaimed for the full duration of that critical section. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_unlock}} is used by a reader to inform the reclaimer that the reader is exiting an RCU read-side critical section. Note that RCU read-side critical sections may be nested and/or overlapping. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|synchronize_rcu}} blocks until all pre-existing RCU read-side critical sections on all CPUs have completed. Note that <code>synchronize_rcu</code> will ''not'' necessarily wait for any subsequent RCU read-side critical sections to complete. For example, consider the following sequence of events: {| class="wikitable" ! !CPU 0 !CPU 1 !CPU 2 |- |1. |rcu_read_lock() | | |- |2. | |enters synchronize_rcu() | |- |3. | | | rcu_read_lock() |- |4. |rcu_read_unlock() | | |- |5. | |exits synchronize_rcu() | |- |6. | | |rcu_read_unlock() |} [[File:Rcu api.jpg|thumb|upright=2|RCU API communications between the reader, updater, and reclaimer]] :Since <code>synchronize_rcu</code> is the API that must figure out when readers are done, its implementation is key to RCU. For RCU to be useful in all but the most read-intensive situations, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>'s overhead must also be quite small. :Alternatively, instead of blocking, synchronize_rcu may register a callback to be invoked after all ongoing RCU read-side critical sections have completed. This callback variant is called {{The Linux Kernel/id|call_rcu}} in the Linux kernel. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_assign_pointer}} - The updater uses this function to assign a new value to an RCU-protected pointer, in order to safely communicate the change in value from the updater to the reader. This function returns the new value, and also executes any {{w|Memory barrier}} instructions required for a given CPU architecture. Perhaps more importantly, it serves to document which pointers are protected by RCU. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_dereference}} - The reader uses this function to fetch an RCU-protected pointer, which returns a value that may then be safely dereferenced. It also executes any directives required by the compiler or the CPU, for example, a volatile cast for gcc, a memory_order_consume load for C/C++11 or the memory-barrier instruction required by the old DEC Alpha CPU. The value returned by <code>rcu_dereference</code> is valid only within the enclosing RCU read-side critical section. As with <code>rcu_assign_pointer</code>, an important function of <code>rcu_dereference</code> is to document which pointers are protected by RCU. The RCU infrastructure observes the time sequence of <code>rcu_read_lock</code>, <code>rcu_read_unlock</code>, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>, and <code>call_rcu</code> invocations in order to determine when (1) <code>synchronize_rcu</code> invocations may return to their callers and (2) <code>call_rcu</code> callbacks may be invoked. Efficient implementations of the RCU infrastructure make heavy use of batching in order to amortize their overhead over many uses of the corresponding APIs. ⚲ API : [https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#:~:text=rcu_nocbs%5B rcu_nocbs] &ndash; no-callback CPUs : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rculist.h}} &ndash; RCU-protected linked list operations ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/rcu}} &ndash; read-copy-update implementation 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Avoiding Locks: Read Copy Update|kernel-hacking/locking.html?#avoiding-locks-read-copy-update}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|RCU concepts|RCU}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/Initialization/linux-initialization-9.html RCU initialization] 📚 Further reading : [https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1906/attachments/1590/3302/LPC-2024-Vienna.pdf Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency] ==== Sleeping locks ==== ===== Mutexes ===== ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/mutex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/completion.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|mutex}} has owner and usage constraints, easier to debug than semaphore :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|rt_mutex}} blocking mutual exclusion locks with priority inheritance (PI) support :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|ww_mutex}} Wound/Wait mutexes: blocking mutual exclusion locks with deadlock avoidance : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rw_semaphore}} readers–writer semaphores : {{The Linux Kernel/id|percpu_rw_semaphore}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|completion}} - use completion for synchronization task with ISR and task or two tasks. :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_for_completion}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|complete}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#mutex stress-ng --mutex] 💾 ''Historical'' : {{The Linux Kernel/id|semaphore}} - use mutex instead semaphore if possible : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/semaphore.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rwsem.h}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Completions - “wait for completion” barrier APIs|scheduler/completion.html}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Mutex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#mutex-api-reference}} : [http://lwn.net/Articles/23993/ LWN: completion events] ==== per CPU local lock ==== On normal preemptible kernel local_lock calls {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_disable}}.

Since the thread remains active but is not performing a useful task, the use of such a lock is a kind of busy waiting. Once acquired, spinlocks will usually be held until they are explicitly released, although in some implementations they may be automatically released if the thread being waited on (that which holds the lock) blocks, or "goes to sleep". Spinlocks are commonly used inside kernels because they are efficient if threads are likely to be blocked for only short periods. However, spinlocks become wasteful if held for longer durations, as they may prevent other threads from running and require rescheduling. 👁 For example {{The Linux Kernel/id|kobj_kset_join}} uses spinlock to protect assess to the linked list. Enabling and disabling of kernel preemption replaced spinlocks on uniprocessor systems (disabled {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_SMP}}). Most spinning locks becoming sleeping locks in the {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT}} kernels. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|spinlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|raw_spinlock_t}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/bit_spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|bit_spin_lock}} 📖 References : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-1.html Introduction to spinlocks] : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-2.html Queued spinlocks] ===== {{w|Seqlock}}s ===== A ''seqlock'' (short for "sequential lock") is a special locking mechanism used in Linux for supporting fast writes of shared variables between two parallel operating system routines. It is a special solution to the readers–writers problem when the number of writers is small. It is a reader-writer consistent mechanism which avoids the problem of writer starvation. A {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} consists of storage for saving a sequence counter {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}}/seqcount_spinlock_t in addition to a lock. The lock is to support synchronization between two writers and the counter is for indicating consistency in readers. In addition to updating the shared data, the writer increments the sequence counter, both after acquiring the lock and before releasing the lock. Readers read the sequence counter before and after reading the shared data. If the sequence counter is odd on either occasion, a writer had taken the lock while the data was being read and it may have changed. If the sequence counters are different, a writer has changed the data while it was being read. In either case readers simply retry (using a loop) until they read the same even sequence counter before and after. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|DEFINE_SEQLOCK}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqlock_excl}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqlock}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_retry}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_end}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/seqlock.h}} 👁 Example: {{The Linux Kernel/id|mount_lock}}, defined in {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/namespace.c}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Sequence counters and sequential locks|locking/seqlock.html}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-6.html SeqLock] ==== Spinning or sleeping locks ==== :{| class="wikitable" ! !! normal !! on preempt RT |- | spinlock_t, || raw_spinlock_t || rt_mutex_base, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |- | rwlock_t || spinning || sleeping |- | local_lock || preempt_disable|| migrate_disable, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |} ==== Low level ==== The compiler might optimize away or reorder writes to variables leading to unexpected behavior when variables are accessed concurrently by multiple threads. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|asm-generic/rwonce.h}} &ndash;

As a multitasking OS, it allows multiple processes to share processors (CPUs) and other system resources. Each CPU executes a single task at a time. However, multitasking allows each processor to switch between tasks that are being executed without having to wait for each task to finish. For that, the kernel can, at any time, temporarily interrupt a task being carried out by the processor, and replace it by another task that can be new or a previously suspended one. The operation involving the swapping of the running task is called ''{{w|context switch}}''. == Execution == ⚲ API ↪ ⚙️ implementations {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|execve}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_execveat_common}} runs an executable file in the context of current process, replacing the previous executable.

The {{w|Executable and Linkable Format|ELF}} binary format is loaded by {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/binfmt_elf.c}}. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clone}}. Clone creates a child process that may share parts of its execution context with the parent. It is often used to implement threads (though programmers will typically use a higher-level interface such as {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|pthreads}}, implemented on top of clone). {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|wait}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|kernel_waitid}} suspends the execution of the calling process until one of its child processes terminates. Syscall {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|getpid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_tgid_vnr}} returns PID of the current process which internally is called TGID - thread group id. A process can contain many threads. {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|gettid}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_pid_vnr}} returns thread id. Which internally is historically called PID. ⚠️ Warning: confusion.

It usually has the ability to pause a running process, move it to the back of the running queue and start a new process. Active processes are placed in an array called a ''{{w|run queue}}'', or ''runqueue'' - {{The Linux Kernel/id|rq}}. The run queue may contain priority values for each process, which will be used by the scheduler to determine which process to run next. To ensure each program has a fair share of resources, each one is run for some time period (quantum) before it is paused and placed back into the run queue. When a program is stopped to let another run, the program with the highest priority in the run queue is then allowed to execute. Processes are also removed from the run queue when they ask to ''sleep'', are waiting on a resource to become available, or have been terminated. Since version 6.6 the Linux kernel uses the {{w|Earliest eligible virtual deadline first scheduling}} (EEVDF) algorithm, which replaced the {{w|Completely Fair Scheduler}} (CFS). While much of the CFS infrastructure remains: {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}, the red-black tree, load balancing, and {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/sched/fair.c}} &mdash; the task selection logic is fundamentally different. EEVDF is based on a classic scheduling algorithm originally designed for packet networks. The scheduler has a scheduling complexity of O(log N), where N is the number of tasks in the runqueue. Both picking and reinserting a task require O(log N) operations, because the run queue is implemented as a {{w|red–black tree}}. The runqueue ({{The Linux Kernel/id|cfs_rq}}) is implemented as a red-black tree representing a "timeline" of future task execution. The scheduler uses nanosecond granularity accounting and requires no heuristics or interactivity estimators. EEVDF improves sleeper fairness over CFS by tracking ''lag'' ({{The Linux Kernel/id|vlag}}) &mdash; the difference between the service a task was entitled to and the service it actually received. When a sleeping task wakes up, its lag determines eligibility, ensuring interactive tasks get prompt service without starving long-running tasks. The data structure used for the scheduling algorithm is a red-black tree in which the nodes are {{The Linux Kernel/id|sched_entity}} structures, embedded in {{The Linux Kernel/id|task_struct}}. With EEVDF, each task has a time slice ({{The Linux Kernel/id|sysctl_sched_base_slice}}, default 0.7ms) that determines its request length. EEVDF computes a virtual deadline for each task: vd_i = ve_i + r_i/w_i, where ve_i is the eligible time, r_i is the request size, and w_i is the weight (determined by nice value). The scheduler picks the eligible task with the earliest virtual deadline via {{The Linux Kernel/id|__pick_eevdf}}. The Linux kernel contains different scheduler classes (or policies). The EEVDF scheduler handles {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_NORMAL}} (aka SCHED_OTHER). The kernel also contains two additional classes {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_BATCH}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_IDLE}}, and another two real-time scheduling classes named {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_FIFO}} (realtime first-in-first-out) and {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_RR}} (realtime round-robin), with a third realtime scheduling policy known as {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_DEADLINE}} that implements the {{w|Earliest deadline first scheduling|earliest deadline first algorithm (EDF)}} added later. Any realtime scheduler class takes precedence over any of the "normal" &mdash;i.e. non realtime&mdash; classes.

This is essential for ensuring that high-priority tasks receive the necessary CPU time and for improving the system's responsiveness. In Linux, preemption models define how and when the kernel can preempt tasks. Different models offer varying trade-offs between system responsiveness and throughput. 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Proper Locking Under a Preemptible Kernel|locking/preempt-locking.html}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_enable}} &ndash; decrement the preempt counter :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_disable}} &ndash; increment the preempt counter :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_enable_no_resched}} &ndash; decrement, but do not immediately preempt :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_check_resched}} &ndash; if needed, reschedule :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_count}} &ndash; return the preempt counter : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/Kconfig.preempt}} &ndash; preemption model configuration :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE}} &ndash; no forced preemption for servers :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY}} &ndash; voluntary preemption for desktops :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT}} &ndash; preemptible except for critical sections for low-latency desktops :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT}} &ndash; real-time preemption for [[Embedded_Systems/Linux#Real-time|highly responsive applications]] :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC}} &ndash; allows runtime switching of preemption model ::: /sys/kernel/debug/sched/preempt &ndash; shows and controls the active preemption model === sched_ext === Since version 6.12 the kernel supports {{The Linux Kernel/id|SCHED_EXT}} &mdash; an extensible scheduler class whose behavior is defined by a set of {{w|eBPF}} programs.

They are used throughout the kernel to wait for available memory, I/O completion, message arrival, and many other things. In the early days of Linux, a wait queue was a simple list of waiting processes, but various scalability problems (including the {{w|thundering herd problem}}) have led to the addition of a fair amount of complexity since then. ⚲ API {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/wait.h}} {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_head}} consists of double linked list of {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_queue_entry}} and a spinlock.

When one thread starts executing the critical section (serialized segment of the program) the other thread should wait until the first thread finishes. If proper synchronization techniques are not applied, it may cause a race condition where, the values of variables may be unpredictable and vary depending on the timings of context switches of the processes or threads. === User space synchronization === ==== POSIX Timers ==== ⚲ APIs : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_create}} – creates a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_settime}} – starts or modifies a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_gettime}} – retrieves the remaining time of a timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|timer_delete}} – deletes a POSIX timer : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|clock_nanosleep}} – suspends execution for a specified time ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/posix-timers.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/itimer.c}} &ndash; interval timer (setitimer/getitimer) : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-timers.c}} &ndash; POSIX clock and timer operations : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/time/posix-cpu-timers.c}} &ndash; per-process/thread CPU timers :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|posix_cpu_timer_set}} – function setting up CPU timers ==== Futex ==== A {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|futex}} ↪ {{The Linux Kernel/id|do_futex}} (short for "Fast User space muTex") is a kernel system call that programmers can use to implement basic locking, or as a building block for higher-level locking abstractions such as semaphores and POSIX mutexes or condition variables. A futex consists of a kernel space ''wait queue'' that is attached to an aligned integer in user space. Multiple processes or threads operate on the integer entirely in user space (using atomic operations to avoid interfering with one another), and only resort to relatively expensive system calls to request operations on the wait queue (for example to wake up waiting processes, or to put the current process on the wait queue). A properly programmed futex-based lock will not use system calls except when the lock is contended; since most operations do not require arbitration between processes, this will not happen in most cases. The basic operations of futexes are based on only two central operations {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wait}} and {{The Linux Kernel/id|futex_wake}} though implementation has more operations for more specialized cases. : WAIT (''addr'', ''val'') checks if the value stored at the address ''addr'' is ''val'', and if it is puts the current thread to sleep. : WAKE (''addr'', ''val'') wakes up ''val'' number of threads waiting on the address ''addr''. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|uapi/linux/futex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/futex.h}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/futex}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#futex stress-ng --futex] 📖 References : {{w|Futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|futex}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Futex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#futex-api-reference}} : {{The Linux Kernel/ltp|kernel/syscalls|futex}} ==== File locking ==== ⚲ API: {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|flock}} ==== Semaphore ==== 💾 ''History: Semaphore is part of System V IPC {{The Linux Kernel/man|7|sysvipc}}'' ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semget}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semctl}} : {{The Linux Kernel/man|2|semop}} ⚙️ Internals: {{The Linux Kernel/source|ipc/sem.c}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#sem stress-ng --sem] === Kernel space synchronization === For kernel mode synchronization Linux provides three categories of locking primitives: sleeping, per CPU local locks and spinning locks. ==== Read-Copy-Update ==== Common mechanism to solve the readers–writers problem is the {{w|read-copy-update}} (''RCU'') algorithm. Read-copy-update implements a kind of mutual exclusion that is wait-free (non-blocking) for readers, allowing extremely low overhead. However, RCU updates can be expensive, as they must leave the old versions of the data structure in place to accommodate pre-existing readers. ⚲ The core API in {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} is quite small: : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_lock}} marks an RCU-protected data structure so that it won't be reclaimed for the full duration of that critical section. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_read_unlock}} is used by a reader to inform the reclaimer that the reader is exiting an RCU read-side critical section. Note that RCU read-side critical sections may be nested and/or overlapping. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|synchronize_rcu}} blocks until all pre-existing RCU read-side critical sections on all CPUs have completed. Note that <code>synchronize_rcu</code> will ''not'' necessarily wait for any subsequent RCU read-side critical sections to complete. For example, consider the following sequence of events: {| class="wikitable" ! !CPU 0 !CPU 1 !CPU 2 |- |1. |rcu_read_lock() | | |- |2. | |enters synchronize_rcu() | |- |3. | | | rcu_read_lock() |- |4. |rcu_read_unlock() | | |- |5. | |exits synchronize_rcu() | |- |6. | | |rcu_read_unlock() |} [[File:Rcu api.jpg|thumb|upright=2|RCU API communications between the reader, updater, and reclaimer]] :Since <code>synchronize_rcu</code> is the API that must figure out when readers are done, its implementation is key to RCU. For RCU to be useful in all but the most read-intensive situations, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>'s overhead must also be quite small. :Alternatively, instead of blocking, synchronize_rcu may register a callback to be invoked after all ongoing RCU read-side critical sections have completed. This callback variant is called {{The Linux Kernel/id|call_rcu}} in the Linux kernel. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_assign_pointer}} - The updater uses this function to assign a new value to an RCU-protected pointer, in order to safely communicate the change in value from the updater to the reader. This function returns the new value, and also executes any {{w|Memory barrier}} instructions required for a given CPU architecture. Perhaps more importantly, it serves to document which pointers are protected by RCU. : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rcu_dereference}} - The reader uses this function to fetch an RCU-protected pointer, which returns a value that may then be safely dereferenced. It also executes any directives required by the compiler or the CPU, for example, a volatile cast for gcc, a memory_order_consume load for C/C++11 or the memory-barrier instruction required by the old DEC Alpha CPU. The value returned by <code>rcu_dereference</code> is valid only within the enclosing RCU read-side critical section. As with <code>rcu_assign_pointer</code>, an important function of <code>rcu_dereference</code> is to document which pointers are protected by RCU. The RCU infrastructure observes the time sequence of <code>rcu_read_lock</code>, <code>rcu_read_unlock</code>, <code>synchronize_rcu</code>, and <code>call_rcu</code> invocations in order to determine when (1) <code>synchronize_rcu</code> invocations may return to their callers and (2) <code>call_rcu</code> callbacks may be invoked. Efficient implementations of the RCU infrastructure make heavy use of batching in order to amortize their overhead over many uses of the corresponding APIs. ⚲ API : [https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#:~:text=rcu_nocbs%5B rcu_nocbs] &ndash; no-callback CPUs : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rcupdate.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rculist.h}} &ndash; RCU-protected linked list operations ⚙️ Internals : {{The Linux Kernel/source|kernel/rcu}} &ndash; read-copy-update implementation 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Avoiding Locks: Read Copy Update|kernel-hacking/locking.html?#avoiding-locks-read-copy-update}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|RCU concepts|RCU}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/Initialization/linux-initialization-9.html RCU initialization] 📚 Further reading : [https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1906/attachments/1590/3302/LPC-2024-Vienna.pdf Reduce synchronize_rcu() latency] ==== Sleeping locks ==== ===== Mutexes ===== ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/mutex.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/completion.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|mutex}} has owner and usage constraints, easier to debug than semaphore :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|rt_mutex}} blocking mutual exclusion locks with priority inheritance (PI) support :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|ww_mutex}} Wound/Wait mutexes: blocking mutual exclusion locks with deadlock avoidance : {{The Linux Kernel/id|rw_semaphore}} readers–writer semaphores : {{The Linux Kernel/id|percpu_rw_semaphore}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|completion}} - use completion for synchronization task with ISR and task or two tasks. :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|wait_for_completion}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|complete}} 🔨 [https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/stress-ng.1.html#mutex stress-ng --mutex] 💾 ''Historical'' : {{The Linux Kernel/id|semaphore}} - use mutex instead semaphore if possible : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/semaphore.h}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/rwsem.h}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Completions - “wait for completion” barrier APIs|scheduler/completion.html}} : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Mutex API reference|kernel-hacking/locking.html#mutex-api-reference}} : [http://lwn.net/Articles/23993/ LWN: completion events] ==== per CPU local lock ==== On normal preemptible kernel local_lock calls {{The Linux Kernel/id|preempt_disable}}.

Since the thread remains active but is not performing a useful task, the use of such a lock is a kind of busy waiting. Once acquired, spinlocks will usually be held until they are explicitly released, although in some implementations they may be automatically released if the thread being waited on (that which holds the lock) blocks, or "goes to sleep". Spinlocks are commonly used inside kernels because they are efficient if threads are likely to be blocked for only short periods. However, spinlocks become wasteful if held for longer durations, as they may prevent other threads from running and require rescheduling. 👁 For example {{The Linux Kernel/id|kobj_kset_join}} uses spinlock to protect assess to the linked list. Enabling and disabling of kernel preemption replaced spinlocks on uniprocessor systems (disabled {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_SMP}}). Most spinning locks becoming sleeping locks in the {{The Linux Kernel/id|CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT}} kernels. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|spinlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|raw_spinlock_t}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/bit_spinlock.h}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|bit_spin_lock}} 📖 References : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-1.html Introduction to spinlocks] : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-2.html Queued spinlocks] ===== {{w|Seqlock}}s ===== A ''seqlock'' (short for "sequential lock") is a special locking mechanism used in Linux for supporting fast writes of shared variables between two parallel operating system routines. It is a special solution to the readers–writers problem when the number of writers is small. It is a reader-writer consistent mechanism which avoids the problem of writer starvation. A {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} consists of storage for saving a sequence counter {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}}/seqcount_spinlock_t in addition to a lock. The lock is to support synchronization between two writers and the counter is for indicating consistency in readers. In addition to updating the shared data, the writer increments the sequence counter, both after acquiring the lock and before releasing the lock. Readers read the sequence counter before and after reading the shared data. If the sequence counter is odd on either occasion, a writer had taken the lock while the data was being read and it may have changed. If the sequence counters are different, a writer has changed the data while it was being read. In either case readers simply retry (using a loop) until they read the same even sequence counter before and after. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|DEFINE_SEQLOCK}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqlock_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqlock_excl}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqlock}} : {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_t}} :: {{The Linux Kernel/id|seqcount_init}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|read_seqcount_retry}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_begin}}, {{The Linux Kernel/id|write_seqcount_end}} : {{The Linux Kernel/include|linux/seqlock.h}} 👁 Example: {{The Linux Kernel/id|mount_lock}}, defined in {{The Linux Kernel/source|fs/namespace.c}} 📖 References : {{The Linux Kernel/doc|Sequence counters and sequential locks|locking/seqlock.html}} : [https://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/SyncPrim/linux-sync-6.html SeqLock] ==== Spinning or sleeping locks ==== :{| class="wikitable" ! !! normal !! on preempt RT |- | spinlock_t, || raw_spinlock_t || rt_mutex_base, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |- | rwlock_t || spinning || sleeping |- | local_lock || preempt_disable|| migrate_disable, rt_spin_lock, sleeping |} ==== Low level ==== The compiler might optimize away or reorder writes to variables leading to unexpected behavior when variables are accessed concurrently by multiple threads. ⚲ API : {{The Linux Kernel/include|asm-generic/rwonce.h}} &ndash;

Use with {{tl|-}} or {{tl|clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the '''clear''' parameter (see below) to prevent collision with images. === Parameters (optional) === ;clear: Sets the [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] clear property, which forces this float underneath the side specified with this attribute. So, <code>clear=right</code> (which is the default) will place the element after all the right floating elements before it. Options are <code>left</code>, <code>right</code>, <code>both</code>, or <code>none</code>. ;width: Set the CSS width. ;limit: Limits the depth of subheadings shown. For instance using <code>limit=4</code> will hide the fourth level and deeper subheadings in the hierarchy. And <code>limit=2</code> will hide all subheadings leaving only the main headings. This is implemented as a CSS class in the [[MediaWiki:Common.css/toc.css]]. * Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location. Crossing a section division is probably a poor idea. * If the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden. === Cautions === Do not place this template so that the TOC aligns with a large image or infobox; this breaks the layout on narrow screens (even users with screens as wide as 1024px wide can have problems). Also, a TOC that crosses a section division is probably a poor idea, if that can be avoided.

This latest version has a good support for many/most web sites, even YouTube web page now works. This improved compatibility comes at the expense of higher RAM usage (now 1GB RAM is the absolute minimum). Also, keep in mind that the lack of a JIT (Just-In-Time) JS compiler on the 32 bit version, makes the web surfing a bit slow. Only the 64 bit version of OWB 2.0 will have JIT enabled, thus benefitting of more speed. There are tooltypes that can be added to the icon to provide further features JIT, MSE etc Certificates from [https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html ca certs], DNS tracking blocking with [https://easylist.to/easylist/easylist.txt easylist.txt] in PROGDIR:Conf before starting browser with enabled AdBlock [https://github.com/easylist/easylist/tree/master easylist], [https://gitlab.com/eyeo anti abp], [https://firebog.net/ big blocklist], [https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Steves], [], [], This can be enabled with OWB Odyssey with Windows -> Content Blocking and Windows -> Messages and enter https://www.youtube.com/api/stats/ads* https://www.youtube.com/pagead/adview* https://www.youtube.com#@##player-ads* into your custom filters Element blocker browser extension might be needed for [https://github.com/easylist/easylist/wiki/Youtube-Issues youtube], [ mid roll], [ pre roll], [ ], OWB speed is much better when running from RAM Disk, the best way is to add the below into your S:User-Startup which copies OWB drawer from Extras:Internet/OWB to RAM Disk: So add this : <pre> copy Extras:Internet/OWB Ram:OWB/ ALL CLONE >NIL: copy Extras:Internet/OWB.info Ram: >NIL: </pre> Open RAM Disk and open OWB drawer and double click on OWB icon so that the above icon tooltypes are activated Problems are that the copy time is long (around 20 seconds added in the background), but we can make it faster if we delete useless files from the OWB drawer (docs, …) If you don’t copy the drawer back onto the HD, you won’t save your cache, cookies, passwords… So you need a script for it.

Please read more on this [http://www.freelists.org/list/simplemail-usr User list] GMail Be sure to activate the pop3 usage in your gmail account setup / configuration first. pop3: pop.gmail.com Use SSL: Yes Port: 995 smtp: smtp.gmail.com (with authentication) Use Authentication: Yes Use SSL: Yes Port: 465 or 587 Hotmail/MSN/outlook/Microsoft Mail mid-2017, all outlook.com accounts will be migrated to Office 365 / Exchange Most users are currently on POP which does not allow showing folders and many other features (technical limitations of POP3). With Microsoft IMAP you will get folders, sync read/unread, and show flags. You still won't get push though, as Microsoft has not turned on the IMAP Idle command as at Sept 2013. If you want to try it, you need to first remove (you can't edit) your pop account (long-press the account on the accounts screen, delete account). Then set it up this way: 1. Email/Password 2. Manual 3. IMAP 4. * Incoming: imap-mail.outlook.com, port 993, SSL/TLS should be checked * Outgoing: smtp-mail.outlook.com, port 587, SSL/TLS should be checked * POP server name pop-mail.outlook.com, port 995, POP encryption method SSL Yahoo Mail On April 24, 2002 Yahoo ceased to offer POP access to its free mail service. Introducing instead a yearly payment feature, allowing users POP3 and IMAP server support, along with such benefits as larger file attachment sizes and no adverts. Sorry to see Yahoo leaving its users to cough up for the privilege of accessing their mail. Understandable, when competing against rivals such as Gmail and Hotmail who hold a large majority of users and were hacked in 2014 as well. Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server * Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com * Port - 993 * Requires SSL - Yes Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server * Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com * Port - 465 or 587 * Requires SSL - Yes * Requires authentication - Yes Your login info * Email address - Your full email address (name@domain.com) * Password - Your account's password * Requires authentication - Yes Note that you need to enable “Web & POP Access” in your Yahoo Mail account to send and receive Yahoo Mail messages through any other email program. You will have to enable “Allow your Yahoo Mail to be POPed” under “POP and Forwarding”, to send and receive Yahoo mails through any other email client. Cannot be done since 2002 unless the customer pays Yahoo a subscription subs fee to have access to SMTP and POP3 * Set the POP server for incoming mails as pop.mail.yahoo.com. You will have to enable “SSL” and use 995 for Port. * “Account Name or Login Name” – Your Yahoo Mail ID i.e. your email address without the domain “@yahoo.com”. * “Email Address” – Your Yahoo Mail address i.e. your email address including the domain “@yahoo.com”. E.g. myname@yahoo.com * “Password” – Your Yahoo Mail password. Yahoo! Mail Plus users may have to set POP server as plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com and SMTP server as plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. * Set the SMTP server for outgoing mails as smtp.mail.yahoo.com. You will also have to make sure that “SSL” is enabled and use 465 for port. you must also enable “authentication” for this to work. ====YAM Yet Another Mailer==== YAM does not support SSL and most mail providers have now switched to encrypted SMTP/POP3 connections This email client is POP3 only if the SSL library is available [http://www.freelists.org/list/yam YAM Freelists] One of the downsides of using a POP3 mailer unfortunately - you have to set an option not to delete the mail if you want it left on the server. IMAP keeps all the emails on the server. Possible issues Sending mail issues is probably a matter of using your ISP's SMTP server, though it could also be an SSL issue. getting a "Couldn't initialise TLSv1 / SSL error Use of on-line e-mail accounts with this email client is not possible as it lacks the OpenSSL AmiSSl v3 compatible library GMail Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL: pop.gmail.com Use SSL: Yes Port: 995 Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication) Use Authentication: Yes Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL) Port: 465 or 587 Account Name: your Gmail username (including '@gmail.com') Email Address: your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com) Password: your Gmail password Anyway, the SMTP is pop.gmail.com port 465 and it uses SSLLv3 Authentication.

You will have to enable “Allow your Yahoo Mail to be POPed” under “POP and Forwarding”, to send and receive Yahoo mails through any other email client. Cannot be done since 2002 unless the customer pays Yahoo a monthly fee to have access to SMTP and POP3 Microsoft Outlook Express Mail 1. Get the files to your PC. By whatever method get the files off your Amiga onto your PC. In the YAM folder you have a number of different folders, one for each of your folders in YAM. Inside that is a file usually some numbers such as 332423.283. YAM created a new file for every single email you received. 2. Open up a brand new Outlook Express. Just configure the account to use 127.0.0.1 as mail servers. It doesn't really matter. You will need to manually create any subfolders you used in YAM. 3. You will need to do a mass rename on all your email files from YAM. Just add a .eml to the end of it. Amazing how PCs still rely mostly on the file name so it knows what sort of file it is rather than just looking at it! There are a number of multiple renamers online to download and free too. 4. Go into each of your folders, inbox, sent items etc. And do a select all then drag the files into Outlook Express (to the relevant folder obviously) Amazingly the file format that YAM used is very compatible with .eml standard and viola your emails appear. With correct dates and working attachments. 5. If you want your email into Microsoft Outlook. Open that up and create a new profile and a new blank PST file. Then go into File Import and choose to import from Outlook Express. And the mail will go into there. And viola.. you have your old email from your Amiga in a more modern day format. ===FTP=== Magellan has a great FTP module. It allows transferring files from/to a FTP server over the Internet or the local network and, even if FTP is perceived as a "thing of the past", its usability is all inside the client. The FTP thing has a nice side effect too, since every Icaros machine can be a FTP server as well, and our files can be easily transferred from an Icaros machine to another with a little configuration effort. First of all, we need to know the 'server' IP address. Server is the Icaros machine with the file we are about to download on another Icaros machine, that we're going to call 'client'. To do that, move on the server machine and 1) run Prefs/Services to be sure "FTP file transfer" is enabled (if not, enable it and restart Icaros); 2) run a shell and enter this command: ifconfig -a Make a note of the IP address for the network interface used by the local area network. For cabled devices, it usually is net0:. Now go on the client machine and run Magellan: Perform these actions: 1) click on FTP; 2) click on ADDRESS BOOK; 3) click on "New". You can now add a new entry for your Icaros server machine: 1) Choose a name for your server, in order to spot it immediately in the address book. Enter the IP address you got before. 2) click on Custom Options: 1) go to Miscellaneous in the left menu; 2) Ensure "Passive Transfers" is NOT selected; 3) click on Use. We need to deactivate Passive Transfers because YAFS, the FTP server included in Icaros, only allows active transfers at the current stage. Now, we can finally connect to our new file source: 1) Look into the address book for the newly introduced server, be sure that name and IP address are right, and 2) click on Connect. A new lister with server's "MyWorkspace" contents will appear. You can now transfer files over the network choosing a destination among your local (client's) volumes. Can be adapted to any FTP client on any platform of your choice, just be sure your client allows Active Transfers as well. ===IRC Internet Relay Chat=== Jabberwocky is ideal for one-to-one social media communication, use IRC if you require one to many. Just type a message in ''lowercase''' letters and it will be posted to all in the [ AROS irc channel]. Please do not use UPPER CASE as it is a sign of SHOUTING which is annoying. Other things to type in - replace <message> with a line of text and <nick> with a person's name <pre> /help /list /who /whois <nick> /msg <nick> <message> /query <nick> <message>s /query /away <message> /away /quit <going away message> </pre> [http://irchelp.org/irchelp/new2irc.html#smiley Intro guide here].

Issue the command /me <text> where <text> is the text that should follow your nickname. Example: /me slaps ajk around a bit with a large trout /nick <newNick> /nickserv register <password> <email address> /ns instead of /nickserv, while others might need /msg nickserv /nickserv identify <password> Alternatives: /ns identify <password> /msg nickserv identify <password> ==== IRC WookieChat ==== WookieChat is the most complete internet client for communication across the IRC Network. WookieChat allows you to swap ideas and communicate in real-time, you can also exchange Files, Documents, Images and everything else using the application's DCC capabilities. add smilies drawer/directory run wookiechat from the shell and set stack to 1000000 e.g. wookiechat stack 1000000 select a server / server window * nickname * user name * real name - optional Once you configure the client with your preferred screen name, you'll want to find a channel to talk in. servers * New Server - click on this to add / add extra - change details in section below this click box * New Group * Delete Entry * Connect to server * connect in new tab * perform on connect Change details * Servername - change text in this box to one of the below Server: * Port number - no need to change * Server password * Channel - add #channel from below * auto join - can click this * nick registration password, Click Connect to server button above <pre> Server: irc.freenode.net Channel: #aros </pre> irc://irc.freenode.net/aros <pre> Server: chat.amigaworld.net Channel: #amigaworld or #amigans </pre> <pre> On Sunday evenings USA time usually starting around 3PM EDT (1900 UTC) Server:irc.superhosts.net Channel #team*amiga </pre> <pre> BitlBee and Minbif are IRCd-like gateways to multiple IM networks Server: im.bitlbee.org Port 6667 Seems to be most useful on WookieChat as you can be connected to several servers at once.

The two ways to access chat from jabberwocky <pre > Jabberwocky -> Server -> XMPP -> open and ad-free Jabberwocky -> Server -> Transports (Gateways) -> Proprietary closed systems </pre > The Jabber.org service connects with all IM services that use XMPP, the open standard for instant messaging and presence over the Internet. The services we connect with include Google Talk (closed), Live Journal Talk, Nimbuzz, Ovi, and thousands more. However, you can not connect from Jabber.org to proprietary services like AIM, ICQ, MSN, Skype, or Yahoo because they don’t yet use XMPP components (XEP-0114) '''but''' you can use Jabber.com's servers and IM gateways (MSN, ICQ, Yahoo etc.) instead. The best way to use jabberwocky is in conjunction with a public jabber server with '''transports''' to your favorite services, like gtalk, Facebook, yahoo, ICQ, AIM, etc. You have to register with one of the servers, [https://list.jabber.at/ this list] or [http://www.jabberes.org/servers/ another list], [http://xmpp.net/ this security XMPP list], Unfortunately jabberwocky can only connect to one server at a time so it is best to check what services each server offers. If you set it up with separate Facebook and google talk accounts, for example, sometimes you'll only get one or the other. Jabberwocky open a window where the Jabber server part is typed in as well as your Nickname and Password. Jabber ID (JID) identifies you to the server and other users. Once registered the next step is to goto Jabberwocky's "Windows" menu and select the "Agents" option. The "Agents List" window will open. Roster (contacts list) [http://search.wensley.org.uk/ Chatrooms] (MUC) are available File Transfer - can send and receive files through the Jabber service but not with other services like IRC, ICQ, AIM or Yahoo. All you need is an installed webbrowser and OpenURL. Clickable URLs - The message window uses Mailtext.mcc and you can set a URL action in the MUI mailtext prefs like SYS:Utils/OpenURL %s NEWWIN. There is no consistent Skype like (H.323 VoIP) video conferencing available over Jabber. The move from xmpp to Jingle should help but no support on any amiga-like systems at the moment.

SIP and Asterisk are other PBX options. Facebook If you're using the XMPP transport provided by Facebook themselves, chat.facebook.com, it looks like they're now requiring SSL transport. This means jabberwocky method below will no longer work. The best thing to do is to create an ID on a public jabber server which has a Facebook gateway. <pre > 1. launch jabberwocky 2. if the login window doesn't appear on launch, select 'account' from the jabberwocky menu 3. your jabber ID will be user@chat.facebook.com where user is your user ID 4. your password is your normal facebook password 5. to save this for next time, click the popup gadget next to the ID field 6. click the 'add' button 7. click the 'close' button 8. click the 'connect' button </pre > you're done. you can also click the 'save as default account' button if you want. jabberwocky configured to auto-connect when launching the program, but you can configure as you like. there is amigaguide documentation included with jabberwocky.

Most of the ICQ Jabber Transports still use an older ICQ protocol. You can only talk one-way to StriCQ using the older Transports. Only the newer ICQv7 Transport lets you talk both ways to StriCQ. Look at the server lists in the first section to check. Register on a Jabber server, e.g. this one works: http://www.jabber.de/ Then login into Jabberwocky with the following login data e.g. xxx@jabber.de / Password: xxx Now add your ICQ account under the window->Agents->"Register". Now Jabberwocky connects via the Jabber.de server with your ICQ account. Yahoo Messenger although yahoo! does not use xmpp protocol, you should be able to use the transport methods to gain access and post your replies MSN early months of 2013 Microsoft will ditch MSN Messenger client and force everyone to use Skype...but MSN protocol and servers will keep working as usual for quite a long time.... Occasionally the Messenger servers have been experiencing problems signing in. You may need to sign in at www.outlook.com and then try again. It may also take multiple tries to sign in. (This also affects you if you’re using Skype.) You have to check each servers' Agents List to see what transports (MSN protocol, ICQ protocol, etc.) are supported or use the list address' provided in the section above. Then register with each transport (IRC, MSN, ICQ, etc.) to which you need access. After registering you can Connect to start chatting. msn.jabber.com/registered should appear in the window. From this [http://tech.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/amiga-jabberwocky/message/1378 JW group] guide which helps with this process in a clear, step by step procedure. 1. Sign up on MSN's site for a passport account. This typically involves getting a Hotmail address. 2. Log on to the Jabber server of your choice and do the following: * Select the "Windows/Agents" menu option in Jabberwocky. * Select the MSN Agent from the list presented by the server. * Click the Register button to open a new window asking for: **Username = passort account email address, typically your hotmail address. **Nick = Screen name to be shown to anyone you add to your buddy list. **Password = Password for your passport account/hotmail address. * Click the Register button at the bottom of the new window. 3. If all goes well, you will see the MSN Gateway added to your buddy list. If not, repeat part 2 on another server. Some servers may show MSN in their list of available agents, but have not updated their software for the latest protocols used by MSN. 4. Once you are registered, you can now add people to your buddy list. Note that you need to include the '''msn.''' ahead of the servername so that it knows what gateway agent to use. Some servers may use a slight variation and require '''msg.gate.''' before the server name, so try both to see what works. If my friend's msn was amiga@hotmail.co.uk and my jabber server was @jabber.meta.net.nz.. then amiga'''%'''hotmail.com@'''msn.'''jabber.meta.net.nz or another the trick to import MSN contacts is that you don't type the hotmail URL but the passport URL... e.g. Instead of: goodvibe%hotmail.com@msn.jabber.com You type: goodvibe%passport.com@msn.jabber.com And the thing about importing contacts I'm afraid you'll have to do it by hand, one at the time... Google Talk any XMPP server will work, but you have to add your contacts manually. a google talk user is typically either @gmail.com or @talk.google.com. a true gtalk transport is nice because it brings your contacts to you and (can) also support file transfers to/from google talk users. implement Jingle a set of extensions to the IETF's Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) support ended early 2014 as Google moved to Google+ Hangouts which uses it own proprietary format ===Video Player MPlayer=== Many of the menu features (such as doubling) do not work with the current version of mplayer but using 4:3 mplayer -vf scale=800:600 file.avi 16:9 mplayer -vf scale=854:480 file.avi if you want gui use; mplayer -gui 1 <other params> file.avi <pre > stack 1000000 ; using AspireOS 1.xx ; copy FROM SYS:Extras/Multimedia/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: ; using Icaros Desktop 1.x ; copy FROM SYS:Tools/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: ; using Icaros Desktop 2.x ; copy FROM SYS:Utilities/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: cd RAM:MPlayer run MPlayer -gui > Nil: ;run MPlayer -gui -ao ahi_dev -playlist http://www.radio-paralax.de/listen.pls > Nil: </pre > $ mplayer rtsp://127.0.0.1:554/sample_300kbit.mp4 MPlayer supports multicast streaming, and rtp/rtsp protocols (it might require [http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/ live555 library] to work with some streams).

For photojournalism, documentary, and event coverage, minimal touching is recommended. Stick to Camera Raw for such shots, and limit changes to level adjustment, sharpness, noise reduction, and white balance correction. For fashion or portrait shoots, a large amount of adjustment is allowed and usually ends up far from the original. Skin smoothing, blemish removal, eye touch-ups, etc. are common. Might alter the background a bit to emphasize the subject. Product photography usually requires a lot of sharpening, spot removal, and focus stacking. For landscape shots, best results are achieved by doing the maximum amount of preparation before/while taking the shot. No amount of processing can match timing, proper lighting, correct gear, optimal settings, etc. Excessive post-processing might give you a dramatic shot but best avoided in the long term. * White Balance - Left Amiga or F12 and K and under "Misc color effects" tab with a pull down for White Balance - color temperature also known as AKA tint (movies) or tones (painting) - warm temp raise red reduce green blue - cool raise blue lower red green * Exposure - exposure compensation, highlight/shadow recovery * Noise Reduction - during RAW development or using external software * Lens Corrections - distortion, vignetting, chromatic aberrations * Detail - capture sharpening and local contrast enhancement * Contrast - black point, levels (sliders) and curves tools (F12 and K) * Framing - straighten () and crop (F12 and F) * Refinements - color adjustments and selective enhancements - Left Amiga or F12 and K for RGB and YUV histogram tabs - * Resizing - enlarge for a print or downsize for the web or email (F12 and D) * Output Sharpening - customized for your subject matter and print/screen size White Balance - F12 and K scan your image for a shade which was meant to be white (neutral with each RGB value being equal) like paper or plastic which is in the same light as the subject of the picture.

File formats like .psd (Photoshop file has layers, masks etc. contains edited sensor data. The original sensor data is no longer available) .xcf .raw .hdr Image Picture Formats * low dynamic range (JPEG, PNG, TIFF 8-bit), 16-bit (PPM, TIFF), typically as a 16-bit TIFF in either ProPhoto or AdobeRGB colorspace - TIFF files are also fairly universal – although, if they contain proprietary data, such as Photoshop Adjustment Layers or Smart Filters, then they can only be opened by Photoshop making them proprietary. * linear high dynamic range (HDR) images (PFM, [http://www.openexr.com/ ILM .EXR], jpg, [http://aminet.net/util/dtype cr2] (canon tiff based), hdr, NEF, CRW, ARW, MRW, ORF, RAF (Fuji), PEF, DCR, SRF, ERF, DNG files are RAW converted to an Adobe proprietary format - a container that can embed the raw file as well as the information needed to open it) An old version of [http://archives.aros-exec.org/index.php?function=browse&cat=graphics/convert dcraw] There is no single RAW file format. Each camera manufacturer has one or more unique RAW formats. RAW files contain the brightness levels data captured by the camera sensor. This data cannot be modified. A second smaller file, separate XML file, or within a database with instructions for the RAW processor to change exposure, saturation etc. The extra data can be changed but the original sensor data is still there. RAW is technically least compatible. A raw file is high-bit (usually 12 or 14 bits of information) but a camera-generated TIFF file will be usually converted by the camera (compressed, downsampled) to 8 bits. The raw file has no embedded color balance or color space, but the TIFF has both. These three things (smaller bit depth, embedded color balance, and embedded color space) make it so that the TIFF will lose quality more quickly with image adjustments than the raw file. The camera-generated TIFF image is much more like a camera processed JPEG than a raw file. A strong advantage goes to the raw file. The power of RAW files, such as the ability to set any color temperature non-destructively and will contain more tonal values. The principle of preserving the maximum amount of information to as late as possible in the process. The final conversion - which will always effectively represent a "downsampling" - should prevent as much loss as possible. Once you save it as TIFF, you throw away some of that data irretrievably. When saving in the lossy JPEG format, you get tremendous file size savings, but you've irreversibly thrown away a lot of image data. As long as you have the RAW file, original or otherwise, you have access to all of the image data as captured.

If not, you're not balanced. If you have sky you'll see the blue channel further off to the right. RGB is best one to change colours. These elements RGB is a 3-channel format containing data for Red, Green, and Blue in your photo scale between 0 and 255. The area in a picture that appears to be brighter/whiter contains more red color as compared to the area which is relatively darker. Similarly in the green channel the area that appears to be darker contains less amount of green color as compared to the area that appears to be brighter. Similarly in the blue channel the area appears to be darker contains less amount of blue color as compared to the area that appears to be brighter. Brightness luminance histogram also matches the green histogram more than any other color - human eye interprets green better e.g. RGB rough ratio 15/55/30% RGBA (RGB+A, A means alpha channel) . The alpha channel is used for "alpha compositing", which can mostly be associated as "opacity". AROS deals in RGB with two digits for every color (red, green, blue), in ARGB you have two additional hex digits for the alpha channel. The shadows are represented by the left third of the graph. The highlights are represented by the right third. And the midtones are, of course, in the middle. The higher the black peaks in the graph, the more pixels are concentrated in that tonal range (total black area). By moving the black endpoint, which identifies the shadows (darkness) and a white light endpoint (brightness) up and down either sides of the graph, colors are adjusted based on these points. By dragging the central one, can increased the midtones and control the contrast, raise shadows levels, clip or softly eliminate unsafe levels, alter gamma, etc... in a way that is much more precise and creative . RGB Curves * Move left endpoint (black point) up or right endpoint (white point) up brightens * Move left endpoint down or right endpoint down darkens Color Curves * Dragging up on the Red Curve increases the intensity of the reds in the image but * Dragging down on the Red Curve decreases the intensity of the reds and thus increases the apparent intensity of its complimentary color, cyan. Green’s complimentary color is magenta, and blue’s is yellow. <pre> Red <-> Cyan Green <->Magenta Blue <->Yellow </pre> YUV Best option to analyse and pull out statistical elements of any picture (i.e. separate luminance data from color data). The line in Y luma tone box represents the brightness of the image with the point in the bottom left been black, and the point in the top right as white. A low-contrast image has a concentrated clump of values nearer to the center of the graph. By comparison, a high-contrast image has a wider distribution of values across the entire width of the Histogram. A histogram that is skewed to the right would indicate a picture that is a bit overexposed because most of the color data is on the lighter side (increase exposure with higher value F), while a histogram with the curve on the left shows a picture that is underexposed. This is good information to have when using post-processing software because it shows you not only where the color data exists for a given picture, but also where any data has been clipped (extremes on edges of either side): that is, it does not exist and, therefore, cannot be edited. By dragging the endpoints of the line and as well as the central one, can increased the dark/shadows, midtones and light/bright parts and control the contrast, raise shadows levels, clip or softly eliminate unsafe levels, alter gamma, etc... in a way that is much more precise and creative . The U and V chroma parts show color difference components of the image. It’s useful for checking whether or not the overall chroma is too high, and also whether it’s being limited too much Can be used to create a negative image but also With U (Cb), the higher value you are, the more you're on the blue primary color. If you go to the low values then you're on blue complementary color, i.e. yellow. With V (Cr), this is the same principle but with Red and Cyan. e.g. If you push U full blue and V full red, you get magenta. If you push U full yellow and V full Cyan then you get green. YUV simultaneously adds to one side of the color equation while subtracting from the other. using YUV to do color correction can be very problematic because each curve alters the result of each other: the mutual influence between U and V often makes things tricky. You may also be careful in what you do to avoid the raise of noise (which happens very easily). Best results are obtained with little adjustments sunset that looks uninspiring and needs some color pop especially for the rays over the hill, a subtle contrast raise while setting luma values back to the legal range without hard clipping.

Ok to be honest Flipbook has some nice features that require more heavy work but those aren't so much needed right away, things like camera effects, sound, smart fill, export to different movie file formats etc. Tried Flipbook with my tablet and compared it to Luna. The feeling is the same when sketching. LunaPaint is very responsive/fluent to draw with. Just as Flipbook is, and that responsiveness is something its users have mentioned as one of the positive sides of said software. author was learning MUI. Some parts just have to be rewritten with proper MUI classes before new features can be added. * add [Frame Add] / [Frame Del] * whole animation feature is impossible to use.

I start over from scratch very often ) BRUSH - possibility to cut out as brush not just copy off image to brush **ANIMATING** Miss it very much: NUMBER OF CELLS - Possibity to change total no. of cells during project ANIM BRUSH - Possibility to pick up a selected part of cells into an animbrush Miss it somewhat: ADD/REMOVE FRAMES: Add/remove single frame In general LunaPaint is really well done and it feels like a new DeluxePaint version. It works with my tablet. Sure there's much missing of course but things can always be added over time. So there is great potential in LunaPaint that's for sure. Animations could be made in it and maybe put together in QuickVideo, saving in .gif or .mng etc some day. LAYERS -Layers names don't get saved globally in animation frames -Layers order don't change globally in an animation (perhaps as default?). EXPORTING IMAGES -Exporting frames to JPG/PNG gives problems with colors. (wrong colors. See my animatiopn --> My robot was blue now it's "gold" ) I think this only happens if you have layers. -Trying to flatten the layers before export doesn't work if you have animation frames only the one you have visible will flatten properly all other frames are destroyed.

If an app uses panning, this is what you will get. Note that apps like Audio Evolution need panning, so they will have this problem. # When using AHI Hifi modes, mixing is done in 32-bit and sent as 32-bit data to the driver. The Envy24HT driver uses that to output at 24-bit (always). # For the Envy24/Envy24HT, I've made 16-bit and 24-bit inputs (called Line-in 16-bit, Line-in 24-bit etc.). There is unfortunately no app that can handle 24-bit recording. ====Music Mods==== Digital module (mods) trackers are music creation software using samples and sometimes soundfonts, audio plugins (VST, AU or RTAS), MIDI. Generally, MODs are similar to MIDI in that they contain note on/off and other sequence messages that control the mod player. Unlike (most) midi files, however, they also contain sound samples that the sequence information actually plays. MOD files can have many channels (classic amiga mods have 4, corresponding to the inbuilt sound channels), but unlike MIDI, each channel can typically play only one note at once. However, since that note might be a sample of a chord, a drumloop or other complex sound, this is not as limiting as it sounds. Like MIDI, notes will play indefinitely if they're not instructed to end. Most trackers record this information automatically if you play your music in live. If you're using manual note entry, you can enter a note-off command with a keyboard shortcut - usually Caps Lock. In fact when considering file size MOD is not always the best option. Even a dummy song wastes few kilobytes for nothing when a simple SID tune could be few hundreds bytes and not bigger than 64kB. AHX is another small format, AHX tunes are never larger than 64kB excluding comments.

A Track of Note(s) can be collected into a Pattern (section of a song) and these can be given Order to create the whole song. Patience (notes have to be entered one at a time) or playing the bassline on a midi controller (faster - see midi section above). Best approach is to wait until a melody popped into your head. *Up-tempo means the track should be reasonably fast, but not super-fast. *Groovy and funky imply the track should have some sort of "swing" feel, with plenty of syncopation or off beat emphasis and a recognizable, melodic bass line. *Sweet and happy mean upbeat melodies, a major key and avoiding harsh sounds. *Moody - minor key First, create a quick bass sound, which is basically a sine wave, but can be hand drawn for a little more variance. It could also work for the melody part, too. This is usually a bass guitar or some kind of synthesizer bass. The bass line is often forgotten by inexperienced composers, but it plays an important role in a musical piece. Together with the rhythm section the bass line forms the groove of a song. It's the glue between the rhythm section and the melodic layer of a song. The drums are just pink noise samples, played at different frequencies to get a slightly different sound for the kick, snare, and hihats. Instruments that fall into the rhythm category are bass drums, snares, hi-hats, toms, cymbals, congas, tambourines, shakers, etc. Any percussive instrument can be used to form part of the rhythm section. The lead is the instrument that plays the main melody, on top of the chords. There are many instruments that can play a lead section, like a guitar, a piano, a saxophone or a flute. The list is almost endless. There is a lot of overlap with instruments that play chords. Often in one piece an instrument serves both roles. The lead melody is often played at a higher pitch than the chords. Listened back to what was produced so far, and a counter-melody can be imagined, which can be added with a triangle wave. To give the ends of phrases some life, you can add a solo part with a crunchy synth. By hitting random notes in the key of G, then edited a few of them. For the climax of the song, filled out the texture with a gentle high-pitch pad… …and a grungy bass synth. The arrow at A points at the pattern order list. As you see, the patterns don't have to be in numerical order. This song starts with pattern "00", then pattern "02", then "03", then "01", etcetera. Patterns may be repeated throughout a song. The B arrow points at the song title. Below it are the global BPM and speed parameters. These determine the tempo of the song, unless the tempo is altered through effect commands during the song. The C arrow points at the list of instruments. An instrument may consist of multiple samples. Which sample will be played depends on the note. This can be set in the Instrument Editing screen. Most instruments will consist of just one sample, though. The sample list for the selected instrument can be found under arrow D. Here's a part of the main editing screen. This is where you put in actual notes. Up to 32 channels can be used, meaning 32 sounds can play simultaneously. The first six channels of pattern "03" at order "02" are shown here. The arrow at A points at the row number. The B arrow points at the note to play, in this case a C4. The column pointed at by the C arrow tells us which instrument is associated with that note, in this case instrument #1 "Kick". The column at D is used (mainly) for volume commands. In this case it is left empty which means the instrument should play at its default volume. You can see the volume column being used in channel #6. The E column tells us which effect to use and any parameters for that effect. In this case it holds the "F" effect, which is a tempo command. The "04" means it should play at tempo 4 (a smaller number means faster). Base pattern When I create a new track I start with what I call the base pattern. It is worthwhile to spend some time polishing it as a lot of the ideas in the base pattern will be copied and used in other patterns. At least, that's how I work. Every musician will have his own way of working. In "Wild Bunnies" the base pattern is pattern "03" at order "02". In the section about selecting samples I talked about the four different categories of instruments: drums, bass, chords and leads. That's also how I usually go about making the base pattern. I start by making a drum pattern, then add a bass line, place some chords and top it off with a lead. This forms the base pattern from which the rest of the song will grow. Drums Here's a screenshot of the first four rows of the base pattern. I usually reserve the first four channels or so for the drum instruments. Right away there are a couple of tricks shown here. In the first channel the kick, or bass drum, plays some notes. Note the alternating F04 and F02 commands. The "F" command alters the tempo of the song and by quickly alternating the tempo; the song will get some kind of "swing" feel. In the second channel the closed hi-hat plays a fairly simple pattern. Further down in the channel, not shown here, some open hi-hat notes are added for a bit of variation. In the third and fourth channel the snare sample plays. The "8" command is for panning. One note is panned hard to the left and the other hard to the right. One sample is played a semitone lower than the other. This results in a cool flanging effect. It makes the snare stand out a little more in the mix. Bass line There are two different instruments used for the bass line. Instrument #6 is a pretty standard synthesized bass sound. Instrument #A sounds a bit like a slap bass when used with a quick fade out. By using two different instruments the bass line sounds a bit more ”human”. The volume command is used to cut off the notes. However, it is never set to zero. Setting the volume to a very small value will result in a reverb-like effect. This makes the song sound more "live". The bass line hints at the chords that will be played and the key the song will be in. In this case the key of the song is D-major, a positive and happy key. Chords The D major chords that are being played here are chords stabs; short sounds with a quick decay (fade out). Two different instruments (#8 and #9) are used to form the chords. These instruments are quite similar, but have a slightly different sound, panning and volume decay. Again, the reason for this is to make the sound more human. The volume command is used on some chords to simulate a delay, to achieve more of a live feel. The chords are placed off-beat making for a funky rhythm. Lead Finally the lead melody is added. The other instruments are invaluable in holding the track together, but the lead melody is usually what catches people's attention. A lot of notes and commands are used here, but it looks more complex than it is. A stepwise ascending melody plays in channel 13. Channel 14 and 15 copy this melody, but play it a few rows later at a lower volume. This creates an echo effect. A bit of panning is used on the notes to create some stereo depth. Like with the bass line, instead of cutting off notes the volume is set to low values for a reverb effect. The "461" effect adds a little vibrato to the note, which sounds nice on sustained notes. Those paying close attention may notice the instrument used here for the lead melody is the same as the one used for the bass line (#6 "Square"), except played two or three octaves higher. This instrument is a looped square wave sample. Each type of wave has its own quirks, but the square wave (shown below) is a really versatile wave form. Song structure Good, catchy songs are often carefully structured into sections, some of which are repeated throughout the song with small variations. A typical pop-song structure is: Intro - Verse - Chorus - Verse - Chorus - Bridge - Chorus. Other single sectional song structures are <pre> Strophic or AAA Song Form - oldest story telling with refrain (often title of the song) repeated in every verse section melody AABA Song Form - early popular, jazz and gospel fading during the 1960s AB or Verse/Chorus Song Form - songwriting format of choice for modern popular music since the 1960s Verse/Chorus/Bridge Song Form ABAB Song Form ABAC Song Form ABCD Song Form AAB 12-Bar Song Form - three four-bar lines or sub-sections 8-Bar Song Form 16-Bar Song Form Hybrid / Compound Song Forms </pre> The most common building blocks are: #INTRODUCTION(INTRO) #VERSE #REFRAIN #PRE-CHORUS / RISE / CLIMB #CHORUS #BRIDGE #MIDDLE EIGHT #SOLO / INSTRUMENTAL BREAK #COLLISION #CODA / OUTRO #AD LIB (OFTEN IN CODA / OUTRO) The chorus usually has more energy than the verse and often has a memorable melody line. As the chorus is repeated the most often during the song, it will be the part that people will remember. The bridge often marks a change of direction in the song. It is not uncommon to change keys in the bridge, or at least to use a different chord sequence. The bridge is used to build up tension towards the big finale, the last repetition of chorus.

Input a note, then move the cursor to the effects command column and type a C. Play the pattern, and you shouldn't be able to hear the note you placed the C by. This is because the effect parameters are 00. Change the two zeros to a 40(Hex)/64(Dec), depending on what your tracker uses. Play back the pattern again, and the note should come in at full volume. The Position Jump command next. This is just a B followed by the position in the playing list that you want to jump to. One thing to remember is that the playing list always starts at 0, not 1. This command is usually in Hex. Onto the volume slide command: A. This is slightly more complex (much more if you're using a newer tracker, if you want to achieve the results here, then set slides to Amiga, not linear), due to the fact it depends on the secondary tempo. For now set a secondary tempo of 06 (you can play around later), load a long or looped sample and input a note or two. A few rows after a note type in the effect command A. For the parameters use 0F. Play back the pattern, and you should notice that when the effect kicks in, the sample drops to a very low volume very quickly. Change the effect parameters to F0, and use a low volume command on the note. Play back the pattern, and when the slide kicks in the volume of the note should increase very quickly. This because each part of the effect parameters for command A does a different thing. The first number slides the volume up, and the second slides it down. It's not recommended that you use both a volume up and volume down at the same time, due to the fact the tracker only looks for the first number that isn't set to 0. If you specify parameters of 8F, the tracker will see the 8, ignore the F, and slide the volume up. Using a slide up and down at same time just makes you look stupid. Don't do it... The Set Tempo command: F, is pretty easy to understand. You simply specify the BPM (in Hex) that you want to change to. One important thing to note is that values of lower than 20 (Hex) sets the secondary tempo rather than the primary. Another useful command is the Pattern Break: D. This will stop the playing of the current pattern and skip to the next one in the playing list. By using parameters of more than 00 you can also specify which line to begin playing from. Command 3 is Portamento to Note. This slides the currently playing note to another note, at a specified speed. The slide then stops when it reaches the desired note. <pre> C-2 1 000 - Starts the note playing --- 000 C-3 330 - Starts the slide to C-3 at a speed of 30. --- 300 - Continues the slide --- 300 - Continues the slide </pre> Once the parameters have been set, the command can be input again without any parameters, and it'll still perform the same function unless you change the parameters. This memory function allows certain commands to function correctly, such as command 5, which is the Portamento to Note and Volume Slide command. Once command 3 has been set up command 5 will simply take the parameters from that and perform a Portamento to Note. Any parameters set up for command 5 itself simply perform a Volume Slide identical to command A at the same time as the Portamento to Note. This memory function will only operate in the same channel where the original parameters were set up. There are various other commands which perform two functions at once. They will be described as we come across them. C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 02 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 05 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 08 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 0A C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 0D C-3 04 .. .. 09 10 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 10 (You can also switch on the Slider Rec to On, and perform parameter-live-recording, such as cutoff transitions, resonance or panning tweaking, etc..) Note: this command only works for volume/panning and fx datas columns. The next command we'll look at is the Portamento up/down: 1 and 2. Command 1 slides the pitch up at a specified speed, and 2 slides it down. This command works in a similar way to the volume slide, in that it is dependent on the secondary tempo. Both these commands have a memory dependent on each other, if you set the slide to a speed of 3 with the 1 command, a 2 command with no parameters will use the speed of 3 from the 1 command, and vice versa. Command 4 is Vibrato. Vibrato is basically rapid changes in pitch, just try it, and you'll see what I mean. Parameters are in the format of xy, where x is the speed of the slide, and y is the depth of the slide. One important point to remember is to keep your vibratos subtle and natural so a depth of 3 or less and a reasonably fast speed, around 8, is usually used. Setting the depth too high can make the part sound out of tune from the rest. Following on from command 4 is command 6. This is the Vibrato and Volume Slide command, and it has a memory like command 5, which you already know how to use. Command 7 is Tremolo. This is similar to vibrato. Rather than changing the pitch it slides the volume. The effect parameters are in exactly the same format. vibrato effect (0x1dxy) x = speed y = depth (can't be used if arpeggio (0x1b) is turned on) <pre> C-7 00 .. .. 1B37 <- Turn Arpeggio effect on --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 1B38 <- Change datas --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 1B00 <- Turn it off </pre> Command 9 is Sample Offset. This starts the playback of the sample from a different place than the start. The effect parameters specify the sample offset, but only very roughly. Say you have a sample which is 8765(Hex) bytes long, and you wanted it to play from position 4321(Hex). The effect parameter could only be as accurate as the 43 part, and it would ignore the 21. Command B is the Playing List/Order Jump command. The parameters specify the position in the Playing List/Order to jump to. When used in conjunction with command D you can specify the position and the line to play from. Command E is pretty complex, as it is used for a lot of different things, depending on what the first parameter is. Let's take a trip through each effect in order. Command E0 controls the hardware filter on an Amiga, which, as a low pass filter, cuts off the highest frequencies being played back. There are very few players and trackers on other system that simulate this function, not that you should need to use it. The second parameter, if set to 1, turns on the filter. If set to 0, the filter gets turned off. Commands E1/E2 are Fine Portamento Up/Down. Exactly the same functions as commands 1/2, except that they only slide the pitch by a very small amount. These commands have a memory the same as 1/2 as well. Command E3 sets the Glissando control. If parameters are set to 1 then when using command 3, any sliding will only use the notes in between the original note and the note being slid to. This produces a somewhat jumpier slide than usual. The best way to understand is to try it out for yourself. Produce a slow slide with command 3, listen to it, and then try using E31. Command E4 is the Set Vibrato Waveform control. This command controls how the vibrato command slides the pitch. Parameters are 0 - Sine, 1 - Ramp Down (Saw), 2 - Square. By adding 4 to the parameters, the waveform will not be restarted when a new note is played e.g. 5 - Sine without restart. Command E5 sets the Fine Tune of the instrument being played, but only for the particular note being played. It will override the default Fine Tune for the instrument. The parameters range from 0 to F, with 0 being -8 and F being +8 Fine Tune. A parameter of 8 gives no Fine Tune. If you're using a newer tracker that supports more than -8 to +8 e.g. -128 to +128, these parameters will give a rough Fine Tune, accurate to the nearest 16. Command E6 is the Jump Loop command. You mark the beginning of the part of a pattern that you want to loop with E60, and then specify with E6x the end of the loop, where x is the number of times you want it to loop. Command E7 is the Set Tremolo Waveform control. This has exactly the same parameters as command E4, except that it works for Tremolo rather than Vibrato. Command E9 is for Retriggering the note quickly. The parameter specifies the interval between the retrigs. Use a value of less than the current secondary tempo, or else the note will not get retrigged. Command EA/B are for Fine Volume Slide Up/Down. Much the same as the normal Volume Slides, except that these are easier to control since they don't depend on the secondary tempo. The parameters specify the amount to slide by e.g. if you have a sample playing at a volume of 08 (Hex) then the effect EA1 will slide this volume to 09 (Hex). A subsequent effect of EB4 would slide this volume down to 05 (Hex). Command EC is the Note Cut. This sets the volume of the currently playing note to 0 at a specified tick. The parameters should be lower than the secondary tempo or else the effect won't work. Command ED is the Note Delay. This should be used at the same time as a note is to be played, and the parameters will specify the number of ticks to delay playing the note. Again, keep the parameters lower than the secondary tempo, or the note won't get played! Command EE is the Pattern Delay. This delays the pattern for the amount of time it would take to play a certain number of rows. The parameters specify how many rows to delay for. Command EF is the Funk Repeat command. Set the sample loop to 0-1000. When EFx is used, the loop will be moved to 1000- 2000, then to 2000-3000 etc. After 9000-10000 the loop is set back to 0- 1000. The speed of the loop "movement" is defined by x. E is two times as slow as F, D is three times as slow as F etc. EF0 will turn the Funk Repeat off and reset the loop (to 0-1000). effects 0x41 and 0x42 to control the volumes of the 2 303 units There is a dedicated panel for synth parameter editing with coherent sections (osc, filter modulation, routing, so on) the interface is much nicer, much better to navigate with customizable colors, the reverb is now customizable (10 delay lines), It accepts newer types of Waves (higher bit rates, at least 24). Has a replay routine. It's pretty much your basic VA synth. The problem isn't with the sampler being to high it's the synth is tuned two octaves too low, but if you want your samples tuned down just set the base note down 2 octaves (in the instrument panel). so the synth is basically divided into 3 sections from left to right: oscillators/envelopes, then filter and LFO's, and in the right column you have mod routings and global settings. for the oscillator section you have two normal oscillators (sine, saw, square, noise), the second of which is tunable, the first one tunes with the key pressed. Attached to OSC 1 is a sub-oscillator, which is a sawtooth wave tuned one octave down. The phase modulation controls the point in the duty cycle at which the oscillator starts. The ADSR envelope sliders (grouped with oscs) are for modulation envelope 1 and 2 respectively. you can use the synth as a sampler by choosing the instrument at the top. In the filter column, the filter settings are: 1 = lowpass, 2 = highpass, 3 = off. cutoff and resonance. For the LFOs they are LFO 1 and LFO 2, the ADSR sliders in those are for the LFO itself. For the modulation routings you have ENV 1, LFO 1 for the first slider and ENV 2, LFO 2 for the second, you can cycle through the individual routings there, and you can route each modulation source to multiple destinations of course, which is another big plus for this synth. Finally the glide time is for portamento and master volume, well, the master volume... it can go quite loud. The sequencer is changed too, It's more like the one in AXS if you've used that, where you can mute tracks to re-use patterns with variation. <pre> Support for the following modules formats: 669 (Composer 669, Unis 669), AMF (DSMI Advanced Module Format), AMF (ASYLUM Music Format V1.0), APUN (APlayer), DSM (DSIK internal format), FAR (Farandole Composer), GDM (General DigiMusic), IT (Impulse Tracker), IMF (Imago Orpheus), MOD (15 and 31 instruments), MED (OctaMED), MTM (MultiTracker Module editor), OKT (Amiga Oktalyzer), S3M (Scream Tracker 3), STM (Scream Tracker), STX (Scream Tracker Music Interface Kit), ULT (UltraTracker), UNI (MikMod), XM (FastTracker 2), Mid (midi format via timidity) </pre> Possible plugin options include [http://lv2plug.in/ LV2], ====Midi - Musical Instrument Digital Interface==== A midi file typically contains music that plays on up to 16 channels (as per the midi standard), but many notes can simultaneously play on each channel (depending on the limit of the midi hardware playing it).

Bars and Pipes Pro 2.5 is using internal 4-Byte IDs, to check which kind of data are currently processed. Especially in all its files the IDs play an important role. The IDs are stored into the file in the same order they are laid out in the memory. In a Bars 'N' Pipes file (no matter which kind) the ID "NAME" (saved as its ANSI-values) is stored on a big endian system (68k-computer) as "NAME". On a little endian system (x86 PC computer) as "EMAN". The target is to make the AROS-BnP compatible to songs, which were stored on a 68k computer (AMIGA). If possible, setting MIDI channels for Local Control for your keyboard http://www.fromwithin.com/liquidmidi/archive.shtml MIDI files are essentially a stream of event data.

Would it be possible to enrich Bars N’Pipes with software synth and sample support along with audio recording and mastering tools like in the named MAC or PC music sequencers? On the classic AMIGA-OS this is not possible because of missing CPU-power. The hardware of the classic AMIGA is not further developed. So we must say (unfortunately) that those dreams can’t become reality BarsnPipes is best used with external MIDI-equipment. This can be a keyboard or synthesizer with MIDI-connectors. <pre> MIDI can control 16 channels There are USB-MIDI-Interfaces on the market with 16 independent MIDI-lines (multi-port), which can handle 16 MIDI devices independently – 16×16 = 256 independent MIDI-channels or instruments handle up to 16 different USB-MIDI-Interfaces (multi-device).

First of all, midi in & out capabilities of this program are rather limited. # Go to Misc. Setup section and select a midi in or out device to use (ptk only supports one device at a time). # Go to instrument section, and select a MIDI PRG (the default is N/A, which means no midi program selected). # Go to track section and here you can assign a midi channel to each track of ptk. # Play notes :]. Note off works. F'x' note cut command also works too, and note-volume command (speed) is supported. Also, you can change midicontrollers in the tracker, using '90' in the panning row: <pre> C-3 02 .. .. 0000.... --- .. .. 90 xxyy.... << This will set the value --- .. .. .. 0000.... of the controller n.'xx' to 'yy' (both in hex) --- .. .. .. 0000.... </pre> So "--- .. .. 90 2040...." will set the controller number $20(32) to $40(64). You will need the midi implementation table of your gear to know what you can change with midi controller messages. N.B. Not all MIDI devices are created equal! Although the MIDI specification defines a large range of MIDI messages of various kinds, not every MIDI device is required to work in exactly the same way and respond to all the available messages and ways of working. For example, we don't expect a wind synthesiser to work in the same way as a home keyboard. Some devices, the older ones perhaps, are only able to respond to a single channel. With some of those devices that channel can be altered from the default of 1 (probably) to another channel of the 16 possible. Other devices, for instance monophonic synthesisers, are capable of producing just one note at a time, on one MIDI channel. Others can produce many notes spread across many channels. Further devices can respond to, and transmit, "breath controller" data (MIDI controller number 2 (CC#2)) others may respond to the reception of CC#2 but not be able to create and to send it. A controller keyboard may be capable of sending "expression pedal" data, but another device may not be capable of responding to that message. Some devices just have the basic GM sound set. The "voice" or "instrument" is selected using a "Program Change" message on its own. Other devices have a greater selection of voices, usually arranged in "banks", and the choice of instrument is made by responding to "Bank Select MSB" (MIDI controller 0 (CC#0)), others use "Bank Select LSB" (MIDI controller number 32 (CC#32)), yet others use both MSB and LSB sent one after the other, all followed by the Program Change message. The detailed information about all the different voices will usually be available in a published MIDI Data List. MIDI Implementation Chart But in the User Manual there is sometimes a summary of how the device works, in terms of MIDI, in the chart at the back of the manual, the MIDI Implementation Chart. If you require two devices to work together you can compare the two implementation charts to see if they are "compatible". In order to do this we will need to interpret that chart. The chart is divided into four columns headed "Function", "Transmitted" (or "Tx"), "Received" (or "Rx"), or more correctly "Recognised", and finally, "Remarks". <pre> The left hand column defines which MIDI functions are being described. The 2nd column defines what the device in question is capable of transmitting to another device. The 3rd column defines what the device is capable of responding to. The 4th column is for explanations of the values contained within these previous two columns. </pre> There should then be twelve sections, with possibly a thirteenth containing extra "Notes". Finally there should be an explanation of the four MIDI "modes" and what the "X" and the "O" mean. <pre> Mode 1: Omni On, Poly; Mode 2: Omni On, Mono; Mode 3: Omni Off, Poly; Mode 4: Omni Off, Mono. </pre> O means "yes" (implemented), X means "no" (not implemented). Sometimes you will find a row of asterisks "**************", these seem to indicate that the data is not applicable in this case. Seen in the transmitted field only (unless you've seen otherwise). Lastly you may find against some entries an asterisk followed by a number e.g. *1, these will refer you to further information, often on a following page, giving more detail. Basic Channel But the very first set of boxes will tell us the "Basic Channel(s)" that the device sends or receives on. "Default" is what happens when the device is first turned on, "changed" is what a switch of some kind may allow the device to be set to. For many devices e.g. a GM sound module or a home keyboard, this would be 1-16 for both. That is it can handle sending and receiving on all MIDI channels. On other devices, for example a synthesiser, it may by default only work on channel 1. But the keyboard could be "split" with the lower notes e.g. on channel 2. If the synth has an arppegiator, this may be able to be set to transmit and or receive on yet another channel. So we might see the default as "1" but the changed as "1-16". Modes. We need to understand Omni On and Off, and Mono and Poly, then we can decipher the four modes. But first we need to understand that any of these four Mode messages can be sent to any MIDI channel. They don't necessarily apply to the whole device. If we send an "Omni On" message (CC#125) to a MIDI channel of a device, we are, in effect, asking it to respond to e.g. a Note On / Off message pair, received on any of the sixteen channels. Sound strange? Read it again. Still strange? It certainly is. We normally want a MIDI channel to respond only to Note On / Off messages sent on that channel, not any other. In other words, "Omni Off". So "Omni Off" (CC#124) tells a channel of our MIDI device to respond only to messages sent on that MIDI channel. "Poly" (CC#127) is for e.g. a channel of a polyphonic sound module, or a home keyboard, to be able to respond to many simultaneous Note On / Off message pairs at once and produce musical chords. "Mono" (CC#126) allows us to set a channel to respond as if it were e.g. a flute or a trumpet, playing just one note at a time. If the device is capable of it, then the overlapping of notes will produce legato playing, that is the attack portion of the second note of two overlapping notes will be removed resulting in a "smoother" transition. So a channel with a piano voice assigned to it will have Omni Off, Poly On (Mode 3), a channel with a saxophone voice assigned could be Omni Off, Mono On (Mode 4). We call these combinations the four modes, 1 to 4, as defined above. Most modern devices will have their channels set to Mode 3 (Omni Off, Poly) but be switchable, on a per channel basis, to Mode 4 (Omni Off, Mono). This second section of data will include first its default value i.e. upon device switch on. Then what Mode messages are acceptable, or X if none. Finally, in the "Altered" field, how a Mode message that can't be implemented will be interpreted. Usually there will just be a row of asterisks effectively meaning nothing will be done if you try to switch to an unimplemented mode. Note Number <pre> The next row will tell us which MIDI notes the device can send or receive, normally 0-127. The second line, "True Voice" has the following in the MIDI specification: "Range of received note numbers falling within the range of true notes produced by the instrument." My interpretation is that, for instance, a MIDI piano may be capable of sending all MIDI notes (0 to 127) by transposition, but only responding to the 88 notes (21 to 108) of a real piano. </pre> Velocity This will tell us whether the device we're looking at will handle note velocity, and what range from 1-127, or maybe just 64, it transmits or will recognise. So usually "O" plus a range or "X" for not implemented. After touch This may have one or two lines two it. If a one liner the either "O" or "X", yes or no. If a two liner then it may include "Keys" or "Poly" and "Channel". This will show whether the device will respond to Polyphonic after touch or channel after touch or neither. Pitch Bend Again "O" for implemented, "X" for not implemented. (Many stage pianos will have no pitch bend capability.) It may also, in the notes section, state whether it will respond to the full 14 bits, or not, as usually encoded by the pitch bend wheel. Control Change This is likely to be the largest section of the chart. It will list all those controllers, starting from CC#0, Bank Select MSB, which the device is capable of sending, and those that it will respond to using "O" or "X" respectively. You will, almost certainly, get some further explanation of functionality in the remarks column, or in more detail elsewhere in the documentation. Of course you will need to know what all the various controller numbers do. Lots of the official technical specifications can be found at the [www.midi.org/techspecs/ MMA], with the table of messages and control change [www.midi.org/techspecs/midimessages.php message numbers] Program Change Again "O" or "X" in the Transmitted or Recognised column to indicate whether or not the feature is implemented. In addition a range of numbers is shown, typically 0-127, to show what is available. True # (number): "The range of the program change numbers which correspond to the actual number of patches selected." System Exclusive Used to indicate whether or not the device can send or recognise System Exclusive messages. A short description is often given in the Remarks field followed by a detailed explanation elsewhere in the documentation. System Common - These include the following: <pre> MIDI Time Code Quarter Frame messages (device synchronisation). Song Position Pointer Song Select Tune Request </pre> The section will indicate whether or not the device can send or respond to any of these messages. System Real Time These include the following: <pre> Timing Clock - often just written as "Clock" Start Stop Continue </pre> These three are usually just referred to as "Commands" and listed. Again the section will indicate which, if any, of these messages the device can send or respond to. <pre> Aux. Messages Again "O" or "X" for implemented or not. Aux. = Auxiliary. Active Sense = Active Sensing. </pre> Often with an explanation of the action of the device. Notes The "Notes" section can contain any additional comments to clarify the particular implementation. Some of the explanations have been drawn directly from the MMA MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification. And the detailed explanation of some of the functions will be found there, or in the General MIDI System Level 1 or General MIDI System Level 2 documents also published by the MMA.

They all use the most significant nybble (4bits) of 0xF, with the least significant nybble indicating the specific category. The messages are denoted when the MSB of the second nybble is 1. When that bit is a 0, the messages fall into two other subcategories. System Common If the MSB of the second second nybble (4 bits) is not set, this indicates a System Common message. Most of these are messages that include some additional data bytes. System Common Messages Type Status Byte Number of Data Bytes Usage <pre> Time Code Quarter Frame 0xF1 1 Indicates timing using absolute time code, primarily for synthronization with video playback systems. A single location requires eight messages to send the location in an encoded hours:minutes:seconds:frames format*. Song Position 0xF2 2 Instructs a sequencer to jump to a new position in the song. The data bytes form a 14-bit value that expresses the location as the number of sixteenth notes from the start of the song. Song Select 0xF3 1 Instructs a sequencer to select a new song. The data byte indicates the song. Undefined 0xF4 0 Undefined 0xF5 0 Tune Request 0xF6 0 Requests that the receiver retunes itself**. </pre> *MIDI Time Code (MTC) is significantly complex. Please see the MIDI Specification **While modern digital instruments are good at staying in tune, older analog synthesizers were prone to tuning drift. Some analog synthesizers had an automatic tuning operation that could be initiated with this command. System Exclusive If you’ve been keeping track, you’ll notice there are two status bytes not yet defined: 0xf0 and 0xf7. These are used by the System Exclusive message, often abbreviated at SysEx. SysEx provides a path to send arbitrary data over a MIDI connection. There is a group of predefined messages for complex data, like fine grained control of MIDI Time code machinery. SysEx is also used to send manufacturer defined data, such as patches, or even firmware updates. System Exclusive messages are longer than other MIDI messages, and can be any length. The messages are of the following format: 0xF0, 0xID, 0xdd, ...... 0xF7 The message is bookended with distinct bytes. It opens with the Start Of Exclusive (SOX) data byte, 0xF0. The next one to three bytes after the start are an identifier. Values from 0x01 to 0x7C are one-byte vendor IDs, assigned to manufacturers who were involved with MIDI at the beginning. If the ID is 0x00, it’s a three-byte vendor ID - the next two bytes of the message are the value. <pre> ID 0x7D is a placeholder for non-commercial entities. ID 0x7E indicates a predefined Non-realtime SysEx message. ID 0x7F indicates a predefined Realtime SysEx message. </pre> After the ID is the data payload, sent as a stream of bytes. The transfer concludes with the End of Exclusive (EOX) byte, 0xF7. The payload data must follow the guidelines for MIDI data bytes – the MSB must not be set, so only 7 bits per byte are actually usable. If the MSB is set, it falls into three possible scenarios. An End of Exclusive byte marks the ordinary termination of the SysEx transfer. System Real Time messages may occur within the transfer without interrupting it. The recipient should handle them independently of the SysEx transfer. Other status bytes implicitly terminate the SysEx transfer and signal the start of new messages. Some inexpensive USB-to-MIDI interfaces aren’t capable of handling messages longer than four bytes. {| class="wikitable sortable" width="90%" ! width="10%" |Status D7----D0 ! width="10%" |Data Byte(s) D7----D0 ! width="20%" |Description |- |<!--Status-->11110000 || <!--Data-->0iiiiiii [0iiiiiii 0iiiiiii] 0ddddddd --- --- 0ddddddd 11110111 || <!--Description-->System Exclusive.

While a key is being held down, the player can press harder on the key. The controller measures this, and converts it into MIDI messages. Aftertouch comes in two flavors, with two different status messages. The first flavor is polyphonic aftertouch, where every key on the controller is capable of sending its own independent pressure information. The messages are of the following format: <pre> 0xnc, 0xkk, 0xpp n is the status (0xA) c is the channel nybble kk is the key number (0 to 127) pp is the pressure value (0 to 127) </pre> Polyphonic aftertouch is an uncommon feature, usually found on premium quality instruments, because every key requires a separate pressure sensor, plus the circuitry to read them all. Much more commonly found is channel aftertouch. Instead of needing a discrete sensor per key, it uses a single, larger sensor to measure pressure on all of the keys as a group. The messages omit the key number, leaving a two-byte format <pre> 0xnc, 0xpp n is the status (0xD) c is the channel number pp is the pressure value (0 to 127) </pre> Pitch Bend (0xE0) Many keyboards have a wheel or lever towards the left of the keys for pitch bend control. This control is usually spring-loaded, so it snaps back to the center of its range when released. This allows for both upward and downward bends. Pitch Bend Wheel The wheel sends pitch bend messages, of the format <pre> 0xnc, 0xLL, 0xMM n is the status (0xE) c is the channel number LL is the 7 least-significant bits of the value MM is the 7 most-significant bits of the value </pre> You’ll notice that the bender data is actually 14 bits long, transmitted as two 7-bit data bytes. This means that the recipient needs to reassemble those bytes using binary manipulation. 14 bits results in an overall range of 214, or 0 to 16,383. Because it defaults to the center of the range, the default value for the bender is halfway through that range, at 8192 (0x2000). Control Change (0xB0) In addition to pitch bend, MIDI has provisions for a wider range of expressive controls, sometimes known as continuous controllers, often abbreviated CC. These are transmitted by the remaining knobs and sliders on the keyboard controller shown below. Continuous Controllers These controls send the following message format: <pre> 0xnc, 0xcc, 0xvv n is the status (0xB) c is the MIDI channel cc is the controller number (0-127) vv is the controller value (0-127) </pre> Typically, the wheel next to the bender sends controller number one, assigned to modulation (or vibrato) depth. It is implemented by most instruments. The remaining controller number assignments are another point of confusion. The MIDI specification was revised in version 2.0 to assign uses for many of the controllers. However, this implementation is not universal, and there are ranges of unassigned controllers. On many modern MIDI devices, the controllers are assignable. On the controller keyboard shown in the photos, the various controls can be configured to transmit different controller numbers. Controller numbers can be mapped to particular parameters. Virtual synthesizers frequently allow the user to assign CCs to the on-screen controls. This is very flexible, but it might require configuration on both ends of the link and completely bypasses the assignments in the standard. Program Change (0xC0) Most synthesizers have patch storage memory, and can be told to change patches using the following command: <pre> 0xnc, 0xpp n is the status (0xc) c is the channel pp is the patch number (0-127) </pre> This allows for 128 sounds to be selected, but modern instruments contain many more than 128 patches. Controller #0 is used as an additional layer of addressing, interpreted as a “bank select” command. Selecting a sound on such an instrument might involve two messages: a bank select controller message, then a program change. Audio & Midi are not synchronized, what I can do ? Buy a commercial software package but there is a nasty trick to synchronize both. It's a bit hardcore but works for me: Simply put one line down to all midi notes on your pattern (use Insert key) and go to 'Misc. Setup', adjust the latency and just search a value that will make sound sync both audio/midi. The stock Sin/Saw/Pulse and Rnd waveforms are too simple/common, is there a way to use something more complex/rich ? You have to ability to redirect the waveforms of the instruments through the synth pipe by selecting the "wav" option for the oscillator you're using for this synth instrument, samples can be used as wavetables to replace the stock signals. Sound banks like soundfont (sf2) or Kontakt2 are not supported at the moment ====DAW Audio Evolution 4==== Audio Evolution 4 gives you unsurpassed power for digital audio recording and editing on the Amiga. The latest release focusses on time-saving non-linear and non-destructive editing, as seen on other platforms. Besides editing, Audio Evolution 4 offers a wide range of realtime effects, including compression, noise gate, delays, reverb, chorus and 3-band EQ. Whether you put them as inserts on a channel or use them as auxillaries, the effect parameters are realtime adjustable and can be fully automated. Together with all other mixing parameters, they can even be controlled remotely, using more ergonomic MIDI hardware. Non-linear editing on the time line, including cut, copy, paste, move, split, trim and crossfade actions The number of tracks per project(s) is unlimited .... AHI limits you to recording only two at a time. i.e. not on 8 track sound cards like the Juli@ or Phase 88. sample file import is limited to 16bit AIFF (not AIFC, important distinction as some files from other sources can be AIFC with aiff file extention). and 16bit WAV (pcm only) Most apps use the Music Unit only but a few apps also use Unit (0-3) instead or as well. * Set up AHI prefs so that microphone is available. (Input option near the bottom) stereo++ allows the audio piece to be placed anywhere and the left-right adjusted to sound positionally right hifi best for music playback if driver supports this option Load 16bit .aif .aiff only sample(s) to use not AIFC which can have the same ending.

So no way to pass on an AC3 encoded stream unmodified to the digital outputs through AHI. *No master volume handling. Each application has to set its own volume. So each driver implements its own custom driver-mixer interface for handling master volumes, mute and preamps. *Only one output stream. So all input gets mixed into one output. *No automatic handling of output direction based on connected cables. *No monitor input selection. Only monitor volume control. select the correct input (Don't mistake enabled sound for the correct input.) The monitor will feedback audio to the lineout and hp out no matter if you have selected the correct input to the ADC. The monitor will provide sound for any valid input. This will result in free mixing when recording from the monitor input instead of mic/line because the monitor itself will provide the hardware mixing for you. Be aware that MIC inputs will give two channel mono. Only Linein will give real stereo. Now for the not working part. Attempt to record from linein in the AE4 record window, the right channel is noise and the left channel is distorted. Even with the recommended HIFI 16bit Stereo++ mode at 48kHz. Channels Monitor Gain Inout Output Advanced settings - Debugging via serial port * Options -> Soundcard In/Out * Options -> SampleRate * Options -> Preferences F6 for Sample File List Setting a grid is easy as is measuring the BPM by marking a section of the sample. Is your kick drum track "not in time" ? If so, you're stumped in AE4 as it has no fancy variable time signatures and definitely no 'track this dodgy rhythm' function like software of the nature of Logic has. So if your drum beat is freeform you will need to work in freeform mode. (Real music is free form anyway). If the drum *is* accurate and you are just having trouble measuring the time, I usually measure over a range of bars and set the number of beats in range to say 16 as this is more accurate, Then you will need to shift the drum track to match your grid *before* applying the grid. (probably an iterative process as when the grid is active samples snap to it, and when inactive you cannot see it). AE4 does have ARexx but the functions are more for adding samples at set offsets and starting playback / recording. These are the usual features found in DAWs... * Recording digital audio, midi sequencer and mixer * virtual VST instruments and plug-ins * automation, group channels, MIDI channels, FX sends and returns, audio and MIDI editors and music notation editor * different track views * mixer and track layout (but not the same as below) * traditional two windows (track and mixer) Mixing - mixdown Could not figure out how to select what part I wanted to send to the aux, set it to echo and return. Pretty much the whole echo effect. Or any effect. Take look at page17 of the manual. When you open the EQ / Aux send popup window you will see 4 sends. Now from the menu choose the windows menu. Menus->Windows-> Aux Returns Window or press F5 You will see a small window with 4 volume controls and an effects button for each. Click a button and add an effects to that aux channel, then set it up as desired (note the reverb effect has a special AUX setting that improves its use with the aux channel, not compulsory but highly useful). You set the amount of 'return' on the main mix in the Aux Return window, and the amount sent from each main mixer channel in the popup for that channel. Again the aux sends are "prefade" so the volume faders on each channel do not affect them. Tracking Effects - fade in To add some echoes to some vocals, tried to add an effect on a track but did not come out. This is made more complicated as I wanted to mute a vocal but then make it echo at the muting point. Want to have one word of a vocal heard and then echoed off. But when the track is mute the echo is cancelled out. To correctly understand what is happening here you need to study the figure at the bottom of page 15 on the manual. You will see from that that the effects are applied 'prefade' So the automation you applied will naturally mute the entire signal. There would be a number of ways to achieve the goal, You have three real time effects slots, one for smoothing like so Sample -> Amplify -> Delay Then automate the gain of the amplify block so that it effectively mutes the sample just before the delay at the appropriate moment, the echo effect should then be heard. Getting the effects in the right order will require experimentation as they can only be added top down and it's not obvious which order they are applied to the signal, but there only two possibilities, so it wont take long to find out. Using MUTE can cause clicks to the Amplify can be used to mute more smoothly so that's a secondary advantage.

It is a dock type shortcut of the first few functions of the drop-down menu *Database - Load (#?.proj), Append, Create, Edit, Save, Dir List (of WCSProject drawer), *Data Ops - Extract / Convert Interp DEM, Import DLG, DXF, WDB and export LW map 3d formats *Map View - Database file Loader leading to Map View Control with option to the Database Editor *Parameters - Editor for Motion, Color, Ecosystem, Clouds, Waves, management of altimeter files DEM, sclock settings etc *Render - rendering terrain These are more in the pull down menu but not in the dock *Motion Editor *Color Editor *Ecosys Editor Simple minimal workflow *Load database (1st icon - 1st) *Set parameters and save .par file (4th icon) *Render scene (5th icon) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbTwwR2qcc4 Youtube], [], <pre> .proj new project name which creates a drawer of additional files .binary array, ascii array .xyz , z buffer, DTED .dt0, vista 1990s dem, iff conversion .Obj with .elev, .frd with .hdr maps, - digital elevation model (DEM) is a 3D representation of elevation data in various formats USGS 7.5MinDEM, .par </pre> Since for the time being no project is loaded, a query window indicates a procedural error when clicking on the rendering icon (right end of the bar). The menu is quite traditional; it varies according to the activity of the windows. To display any altimetric file in the "Mapview" (third icon of the panel), There are three possibilities: * Loading of a demonstration project. * The import of a DEM file, followed by texturing and packaging from the "Database-Editor" and the "Color-Editor". * The creation of an altimetric file in WCS format, then texturing. The altimeter file editing (display in the menu) is only made possible if the "Mapview" window is active. The software is made up of many windows and won't be able to describe them all. Know that "Color-Editor" and the "Data-Editor" comprise sufficient functions for obtaining an almost real rendering quality. You have the possibility of inserting vector objects in the "Data-Editor" (creation of roads, railways, etc.) The Map View (MapView) window *Database - Objects and Topos *View - Align, Center, Zoom, Pan, Move *Draw - Maps and distance *Object - Find, highlight, add points, conform topo, duplicate *Motion - Camera, Focus, path, elevation *Windows - DEM designer, Cloud (.cld) and wave (.wve) editor, You will notice that by selecting this window and simply moving the pointer to various points on the map you will see latitude and longitude values ​​change, along with the height. Drop-down menu and Modules, then select MapView and change the width of the window with the map to arrange it in the best way on the screen. With the Auto button the center. Window that then displays the contents of my DEM file, in this case the Grand Canyon. MapView allows you to observe the shape of the landscape from above ZOOM button Press the Zoom button and then with the pointer position on a point on the map, press the left mouse button and then move to the opposite corner to circumscribe the chosen area and press the left mouse button again, then we will see the enlarged area selected on the map. Would add that there is a box next to the Zoom button that allows the direct insertion of a value which, the larger it is, the smaller the magnification and the smaller the value, the stronger the magnification. At each numerical change you will need to press the DRAW button to update the view. PAN button Under Zoom you will find the PAN button which allows you to move the map at will in all directions by the amount you want. This is done by drawing a line in one direction, then press PAN and point to an area on the map with the pointer and press the left mouse button. At this point, leave it and move the pointer in one direction by drawing a line and press the left mouse button again to trigger the movement of the map on the screen (origin and end points). Do some experiments and then use the Auto button immediately below to recenter everything. There are parameters such as TOPO, VEC to be left checked and immediately below one that allows different views of the map with the Style command (Single, Multi, Surface, Emboss, Slope, Contour), each with its own particularities to highlight different details. Now you have the first basics to manage your project visually on the map. Close the MapView window and go further... Let's start working on ECOSYSTEMS If we select Emboss from the MapView Style command we will have a clear idea of ​​how the landscape appears, realizing that it is a predominantly desert region of our planet. Therefore we will begin to act on any vegetation present and the appearance of the landscape. With WCS we will begin to break down the elements of the landscape by assigning defined characteristics. It will be necessary to determine the classes of the ecosystem (Class) with parameters of Elevation Line (maximum altitude), Relative Elevation (arrangement on basins or convexities with respectively positive or negative parameters), Min Slope and Max Slope (slope). WCS offers the possibility of making ecosystems coexist on the same terrain with the UnderEco function, by setting a Density value. Ecosys Ecosystem Editor Let's open it from Modules, then Ecosys Editor. In the left pane you will find the list of ecosystems referring to the files present in our project. It will be necessary to clean up that box to leave only the Water and Snow landscapes and a few other predefined ones. We can do this by selecting the items and pressing the Remove button (be careful not for all elements the button is activated, therefore they cannot all be eliminated). Once this is done we can start adding new ecosystems. Scroll through the various Unused and as soon as the Name item at the top is activated allowing you to write, type the name of your ecosystem, adding the necessary parameters. <pre> Ecosystem1: Name: RockBase Class: Rock Density: 80 MinSlope: 15 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosystem2: Name: RockIncl Clss: Rock Density: 80 MinSlope: 30 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosystem3: Name: Grass Class Low Veg Density: 50 Height: 1 Elev Line : 1500 Rel El Eff: 5 Max Slope: 10 – Min Slope: 0 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosistema4: Name: Shrubs Class: Low Veg Density: 40 Height: 8 Elev Line: 3000 Rel El Eff: -2 Max Slope: 20 Min Slope : 5 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosistema5: Name: Terrain Class: Ground Density: 100 UnderEco: Terrain </pre> Now we need to identify an intermediate ecosystem that guarantees a smooth transition between all, therefore we select as Understory Ecosystem the one called Terrain in all ecosystems, except Snow and Water . Now we need to 'emerge' the Colorado River in the Canyon and we can do this by raising the sea level to 900 (Sea Level) in the Ecosystem called Water. Please note that the order of the ecosystem list gives priority to those that come after. So our list must have the following order: Water, Snow, Shrubs, RockIncl, RockBase, Terrain. It is possible to carry out all movements with the Swap button at the bottom. To put order you can also press Short List. Press Keep to confirm all the work done so far with Ecosystem Editor. Remember every now and then to save both the Project 'Modules/Save' and 'Parameter/Save All' EcoModels are made up of .etp .fgp .iff8 for each model Color Editor Now it's time to define the colors of our scene and we can do this by going to Modules and then Color Editor. In the list we focus on our ecosystems, created first. Let's go to the bottom of the list and select the first white space, assigning the name 'empty1', with a color we like and then we will find this element again in other environments... It could serve as an example for other situations! So we move to 'grass' which already exists and assign the following colors: R 60 G 70 B50 <pre> 'shrubs': R 60 G 80 B 30 'RockIncl' R 110 G 65 B 60 'RockBase' R 110 G 80 B 80 ' Terrain' R 150 G 30 B 30 <pre> Now we can work on pre-existing colors <pre> 'SunLight' R 150 G 130 B 130 'Haze and Fog' R 190 G 170 B 170 'Horizon' R 209 G 185 B 190 'Zenith' R 140 G 150 B 200 'Water' R 90 G 125 B 170 </pre> Ambient R 0 G 0 B 0 So don't forget to close Color Editor by pressing Keep. Go once again to Ecosystem Editor and assign the corresponding color to each environment by selecting it using the Ecosystem Color button. Press it several times until the correct one appears. Then save the project and parameters again, as done previously. Motion Editor Now it's time to take care of the framing, so let's go to Modules and then to Motion Editor. An extremely feature-rich window will open. Following is the list of parameters regarding the Camera, position and other characteristics: <pre> -Camera Altitude: 7.0 -Camera Latitude: 36.075 -Camera Longitude: 112.133 -Focus Attitude: -2.0 -Focus Latitude: 36.275 -Focus Longitude: 112.386 -Camera : 512 → rendering window -Camera Y: 384 → rendering window -View Arc: 80 → View width in degrees -Sun Longitude: 172 -Sun Latitude: -0.9 -Haze Start: 3.8 -Haze Range: 78, 5 </pre> As soon as the values ​​shown in the relevant sliders have been modified, we will be ready to open the CamView window to observe the wireframe preview. Let's not consider all the controls that will appear. Well from the Motion Editor if you have selected Camera Altitude and open the CamView panel, you can change the height of the camera by holding down the right mouse button and moving the mouse up and down. To update the view, press the Terrain button in the adjacent window. As soon as you are convinced of the position, confirm again with Keep. You can carry out the same work with the other functions of the camera, such as Focus Altitude... Let's now see the next positioning step on the Camera map, but let's leave the CamView preview window open while we go to Modules to open the window at the same time MapView. We will thus be able to take advantage of the view from the other together with a subjective one. From the MapView window, select with the left mouse button and while it is pressed, move the Camera as desired. To update the subjective preview, always click on Terrain. While with the same procedure you can intervene on the direction of the camera lens, by selecting the cross and with the left button pressed you can choose the desired view. So with the pressure of Terrain I update the Preview. Possibly can enlarge or reduce the Map View using the Zoom button, for greater precision. Also write that the circle around the cameras indicates the beginning of the haze, there are two types (haze and fog) linked to the altitude. Would also add that the camera height is editable through the Motion Editor panel. The sun Let's see that changing the position of the sun from the Motion Editor. Press the SUN button at the bottom right and set the time and the date. Longitude and latitude are automatically obtained by the program. Always open the View Arc command from the Motion Editor panel, an item present in the Parameter List box. Once again confirm everything with Keep and then save again. Animation The animation part is not left-back and also occupies a window. The settings possibilities are enormous. A time line with dragging functions ("slide", "drag"...) comparable to that of LightWave completes this window. A small window is available for positioning the stars as a function of a date, in order to vary the seasons and their various events (and yes...). At the bottom of the "Motion-Editor", a "cam-view" function will give you access to a control panel. Different preview modes are possible. The rendering is also accessible through a window. No less than nine pages compose it. At this level, you will be able to determine the backup name of your images ("path"), the type of texture to be calculated, the resolution of the images, activate or deactivate functions such as the depth buffer ("zbuffer"), the blur, the background image, etc. Once all these parameters have been set, all you have to do is click on the "Render" button. For rendering go to Modules and then Render. Select the resolution, then under IMA select the name of the image. Move to FRA and indicate the level of fractal detail which of 4 is quite good. Then Keep to confirm and then reopen the window, pressing Render you will see the result. The image will be opened with any viewing program. Strengths: * Multi-window. * Quality of rendering. * Accuracy. * Opening, preview and rendering on CyberGraphX screen. * Extract / Convert Interp DEM, Import DLG, DXF, WDB and export LW map 3d formats * The "zbuffer" function. Weaknesses: * No OpenGL management * Calculation time. * No network computing tool. ====Writing CD / DVD - Frying Pan==== Can be backup DVDs (4GB ISO size limit due to use of FileInfoBlock), create audio cds from mp3's, and put .iso files on discs If using for the first time - click Drive button and Device set to ata.device and unit to 0 (zero) Click Tracks Button - Drive 1 - Create New Disc or Import Existing Disc Image (iso bin/cue etc.) - Session File open cue file If you're making a data cd, with files and drawers from your hard drive, you should be using the ISO Builder.. which is the MUI page on the left. ("Data/Audio Tracks" is on the right). You should use the "Data/Audio tracks" page if you want to create music cds with AIFF/WAV/MP3 files, or if you download an .iso file, and you want to put it on a cd. Click WRITE Button - set write speed - click on long Write button Examples Easiest way would be to burn a DATA CD, simply go to "Tracks" page "ISO Builder" and "ADD" everything you need to burn. On the "Write" page i have "Masterize Disc (DAO)", "Close Disc" and "Eject after Write" set. One must not "Blank disc before write" if one uses a CDR AUDIO CD from MP3's are as easy but tricky to deal with. FP only understands one MP3 format, Layer II, everything else will just create empty tracks Burning bootable CD's works only with .iso files. Go to "Tracks" page and "Data/Audio Tracks" and add the .iso ====odf==== Every ODF file is a collection of several subdocuments within a package (ZIP file), each of which stores part of the complete document. * content.xml – Document content and automatic styles used in the content. * styles.xml – Styles used in the document content and automatic styles used in the styles themselves. * meta.xml – Document meta information, such as the author or the time of the last save action. * settings.xml – Application-specific settings, such as the window size or printer information. To read document follow these steps: * Extracting .ods file. * Getting content.xml file (which contains sheets data). * Creating XmlDocument object from content.xml file. * Creating DataSet (that represent Spreadsheet file). * With XmlDocument select “table:table” elements, and then create adequate DataTables. * Parse child’s of “table:table” element and fill DataTables with those data. * At the end, return DataSet and show it in application’s interface. To write document follow these steps: * Extracting template.ods file (.ods file that we use as template). * Getting content.xml file. * Creating XmlDocument object from content.xml file. * Erasing all “table:table” elements from the content.xml file. * Reading data from our DataSet and composing adequate “table:table” elements. * Adding “table:table” elements to content.xml file. * Zipping that file as new .ods file. XLS file format The XLS file format contains streams, substreams, and records. These sheet substreams include worksheets, macro sheets, chart sheets, dialog sheets, and VBA module sheets. All the records in an XLS document start with a 2-byte unsigned integer to specify Record Type (rt), and another for Count of Bytes (cb). A record cannot exceed 8224 bytes. If larger than the rest is stored in one or more continue records. * Workbook stream **Globals substream ***BoundSheet8 record - info for Worksheet substream i.e. name, location, type, and visibility. (4bytes the lbPlyPos FilePointer, specifies the position in the Workbook stream where the sheet substream starts) **Worksheet substream (sheet) - Cell Table - Row record - Cells (2byte=row 2byte=column 2byte=XF format) ***Blank cell record ***RK cell record 32-bit number. ***BoolErr cell record (2-byte Bes structure that may be either a Boolean value or an error code) ***Number cell record (64-bit floating-point number) ***LabelSst cell record (4-byte integer that specifies a string in the Shared Strings Table (SST). Specifically, the integer corresponds to the array index in the RGB field of the SST) ***Formula cell record (FormulaValue structure in the 8 bytes that follow the cell structure. The next 6 bytes can be ignored, and the rest of the record is a CellParsedFormula structure that contains the formula itself) ***MulBlank record (first 2 bytes give the row, and the next 2 bytes give the column that the series of blanks starts at. Next, a variable length array of cell structures follows to store formatting information, and the last 2 bytes show what column the series of blanks ends on) ***MulRK record ***Shared String Table (SST) contains all of the string values in the workbook.

This latest version has a good support for many/most web sites, even YouTube web page now works. This improved compatibility comes at the expense of higher RAM usage (now 1GB RAM is the absolute minimum). Also, keep in mind that the lack of a JIT (Just-In-Time) JS compiler on the 32 bit version, makes the web surfing a bit slow. Only the 64 bit version of OWB 2.0 will have JIT enabled, thus benefitting of more speed. There are tooltypes that can be added to the icon to provide further features JIT, MSE etc Certificates from [https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html ca certs], DNS tracking blocking with [https://easylist.to/easylist/easylist.txt easylist.txt] in PROGDIR:Conf before starting browser with enabled AdBlock [https://github.com/easylist/easylist/tree/master easylist], [https://gitlab.com/eyeo anti abp], [https://firebog.net/ big blocklist], [https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Steves], [], [], This can be enabled with OWB Odyssey with Windows -> Content Blocking and Windows -> Messages and enter https://www.youtube.com/api/stats/ads* https://www.youtube.com/pagead/adview* https://www.youtube.com#@##player-ads* into your custom filters Element blocker browser extension might be needed for [https://github.com/easylist/easylist/wiki/Youtube-Issues youtube], [ mid roll], [ pre roll], [ ], OWB speed is much better when running from RAM Disk, the best way is to add the below into your S:User-Startup which copies OWB drawer from Extras:Internet/OWB to RAM Disk: So add this : <pre> copy Extras:Internet/OWB Ram:OWB/ ALL CLONE >NIL: copy Extras:Internet/OWB.info Ram: >NIL: </pre> Open RAM Disk and open OWB drawer and double click on OWB icon so that the above icon tooltypes are activated Problems are that the copy time is long (around 20 seconds added in the background), but we can make it faster if we delete useless files from the OWB drawer (docs, …) If you don’t copy the drawer back onto the HD, you won’t save your cache, cookies, passwords… So you need a script for it.

Please read more on this [http://www.freelists.org/list/simplemail-usr User list] GMail Be sure to activate the pop3 usage in your gmail account setup / configuration first. pop3: pop.gmail.com Use SSL: Yes Port: 995 smtp: smtp.gmail.com (with authentication) Use Authentication: Yes Use SSL: Yes Port: 465 or 587 Hotmail/MSN/outlook/Microsoft Mail mid-2017, all outlook.com accounts will be migrated to Office 365 / Exchange Most users are currently on POP which does not allow showing folders and many other features (technical limitations of POP3). With Microsoft IMAP you will get folders, sync read/unread, and show flags. You still won't get push though, as Microsoft has not turned on the IMAP Idle command as at Sept 2013. If you want to try it, you need to first remove (you can't edit) your pop account (long-press the account on the accounts screen, delete account). Then set it up this way: 1. Email/Password 2. Manual 3. IMAP 4. * Incoming: imap-mail.outlook.com, port 993, SSL/TLS should be checked * Outgoing: smtp-mail.outlook.com, port 587, SSL/TLS should be checked * POP server name pop-mail.outlook.com, port 995, POP encryption method SSL Yahoo Mail On April 24, 2002 Yahoo ceased to offer POP access to its free mail service. Introducing instead a yearly payment feature, allowing users POP3 and IMAP server support, along with such benefits as larger file attachment sizes and no adverts. Sorry to see Yahoo leaving its users to cough up for the privilege of accessing their mail. Understandable, when competing against rivals such as Gmail and Hotmail who hold a large majority of users and were hacked in 2014 as well. Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server * Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com * Port - 993 * Requires SSL - Yes Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server * Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com * Port - 465 or 587 * Requires SSL - Yes * Requires authentication - Yes Your login info * Email address - Your full email address (name@domain.com) * Password - Your account's password * Requires authentication - Yes Note that you need to enable “Web & POP Access” in your Yahoo Mail account to send and receive Yahoo Mail messages through any other email program. You will have to enable “Allow your Yahoo Mail to be POPed” under “POP and Forwarding”, to send and receive Yahoo mails through any other email client.

Mail Plus users may have to set POP server as plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com and SMTP server as plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. * Set the SMTP server for outgoing mails as smtp.mail.yahoo.com. You will also have to make sure that “SSL” is enabled and use 465 for port. you must also enable “authentication” for this to work. ====YAM Yet Another Mailer==== YAM does not support SSL and most mail providers have now switched to encrypted SMTP/POP3 connections This email client is POP3 only if the SSL library is available [http://www.freelists.org/list/yam YAM Freelists] One of the downsides of using a POP3 mailer unfortunately - you have to set an option not to delete the mail if you want it left on the server. IMAP keeps all the emails on the server. Possible issues Sending mail issues is probably a matter of using your ISP's SMTP server, though it could also be an SSL issue. getting a "Couldn't initialise TLSv1 / SSL error Use of on-line e-mail accounts with this email client is not possible as it lacks the OpenSSL AmiSSl v3 compatible library GMail Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL: pop.gmail.com Use SSL: Yes Port: 995 Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication) Use Authentication: Yes Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL) Port: 465 or 587 Account Name: your Gmail username (including '@gmail.com') Email Address: your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com) Password: your Gmail password Anyway, the SMTP is pop.gmail.com port 465 and it uses SSLLv3 Authentication.

Note that you need to enable “Web & POP Access” in your Yahoo Mail account to send and receive Yahoo Mail messages through any other email program. You will have to enable “Allow your Yahoo Mail to be POPed” under “POP and Forwarding”, to send and receive Yahoo mails through any other email client. Cannot be done since 2002 unless the customer pays Yahoo a monthly fee to have access to SMTP and POP3 Microsoft Outlook Express Mail 1. Get the files to your PC. By whatever method get the files off your Amiga onto your PC. In the YAM folder you have a number of different folders, one for each of your folders in YAM. Inside that is a file usually some numbers such as 332423.283. YAM created a new file for every single email you received. 2. Open up a brand new Outlook Express. Just configure the account to use 127.0.0.1 as mail servers. It doesn't really matter. You will need to manually create any subfolders you used in YAM. 3. You will need to do a mass rename on all your email files from YAM. Just add a .eml to the end of it. Amazing how PCs still rely mostly on the file name so it knows what sort of file it is rather than just looking at it! There are a number of multiple renamers online to download and free too. 4. Go into each of your folders, inbox, sent items etc. And do a select all then drag the files into Outlook Express (to the relevant folder obviously) Amazingly the file format that YAM used is very compatible with .eml standard and viola your emails appear. With correct dates and working attachments. 5. If you want your email into Microsoft Outlook. Open that up and create a new profile and a new blank PST file. Then go into File Import and choose to import from Outlook Express. And the mail will go into there. And viola.. you have your old email from your Amiga in a more modern day format. ===FTP=== Magellan has a great FTP module. It allows transferring files from/to a FTP server over the Internet or the local network and, even if FTP is perceived as a "thing of the past", its usability is all inside the client. The FTP thing has a nice side effect too, since every Icaros machine can be a FTP server as well, and our files can be easily transferred from an Icaros machine to another with a little configuration effort. First of all, we need to know the 'server' IP address. Server is the Icaros machine with the file we are about to download on another Icaros machine, that we're going to call 'client'. To do that, move on the server machine and 1) run Prefs/Services to be sure "FTP file transfer" is enabled (if not, enable it and restart Icaros); 2) run a shell and enter this command: ifconfig -a Make a note of the IP address for the network interface used by the local area network. For cabled devices, it usually is net0:. Now go on the client machine and run Magellan: Perform these actions: 1) click on FTP; 2) click on ADDRESS BOOK; 3) click on "New". You can now add a new entry for your Icaros server machine: 1) Choose a name for your server, in order to spot it immediately in the address book. Enter the IP address you got before. 2) click on Custom Options: 1) go to Miscellaneous in the left menu; 2) Ensure "Passive Transfers" is NOT selected; 3) click on Use. We need to deactivate Passive Transfers because YAFS, the FTP server included in Icaros, only allows active transfers at the current stage. Now, we can finally connect to our new file source: 1) Look into the address book for the newly introduced server, be sure that name and IP address are right, and 2) click on Connect. A new lister with server's "MyWorkspace" contents will appear. You can now transfer files over the network choosing a destination among your local (client's) volumes. Can be adapted to any FTP client on any platform of your choice, just be sure your client allows Active Transfers as well. ===IRC Internet Relay Chat=== Jabberwocky is ideal for one-to-one social media communication, use IRC if you require one to many.

The two ways to access chat from jabberwocky <pre > Jabberwocky -> Server -> XMPP -> open and ad-free Jabberwocky -> Server -> Transports (Gateways) -> Proprietary closed systems </pre > The Jabber.org service connects with all IM services that use XMPP, the open standard for instant messaging and presence over the Internet. The services we connect with include Google Talk (closed), Live Journal Talk, Nimbuzz, Ovi, and thousands more. However, you can not connect from Jabber.org to proprietary services like AIM, ICQ, MSN, Skype, or Yahoo because they don’t yet use XMPP components (XEP-0114) '''but''' you can use Jabber.com's servers and IM gateways (MSN, ICQ, Yahoo etc.) instead. The best way to use jabberwocky is in conjunction with a public jabber server with '''transports''' to your favorite services, like gtalk, Facebook, yahoo, ICQ, AIM, etc. You have to register with one of the servers, [https://list.jabber.at/ this list] or [http://www.jabberes.org/servers/ another list], [http://xmpp.net/ this security XMPP list], Unfortunately jabberwocky can only connect to one server at a time so it is best to check what services each server offers. If you set it up with separate Facebook and google talk accounts, for example, sometimes you'll only get one or the other. Jabberwocky open a window where the Jabber server part is typed in as well as your Nickname and Password. Jabber ID (JID) identifies you to the server and other users. Once registered the next step is to goto Jabberwocky's "Windows" menu and select the "Agents" option. The "Agents List" window will open. Roster (contacts list) [http://search.wensley.org.uk/ Chatrooms] (MUC) are available File Transfer - can send and receive files through the Jabber service but not with other services like IRC, ICQ, AIM or Yahoo. All you need is an installed webbrowser and OpenURL. Clickable URLs - The message window uses Mailtext.mcc and you can set a URL action in the MUI mailtext prefs like SYS:Utils/OpenURL %s NEWWIN. There is no consistent Skype like (H.323 VoIP) video conferencing available over Jabber. The move from xmpp to Jingle should help but no support on any amiga-like systems at the moment.

SIP and Asterisk are other PBX options. Facebook If you're using the XMPP transport provided by Facebook themselves, chat.facebook.com, it looks like they're now requiring SSL transport. This means jabberwocky method below will no longer work. The best thing to do is to create an ID on a public jabber server which has a Facebook gateway. <pre > 1. launch jabberwocky 2. if the login window doesn't appear on launch, select 'account' from the jabberwocky menu 3. your jabber ID will be user@chat.facebook.com where user is your user ID 4. your password is your normal facebook password 5. to save this for next time, click the popup gadget next to the ID field 6. click the 'add' button 7. click the 'close' button 8. click the 'connect' button </pre > you're done. you can also click the 'save as default account' button if you want. jabberwocky configured to auto-connect when launching the program, but you can configure as you like. there is amigaguide documentation included with jabberwocky.

Most of the ICQ Jabber Transports still use an older ICQ protocol. You can only talk one-way to StriCQ using the older Transports. Only the newer ICQv7 Transport lets you talk both ways to StriCQ. Look at the server lists in the first section to check. Register on a Jabber server, e.g. this one works: http://www.jabber.de/ Then login into Jabberwocky with the following login data e.g. xxx@jabber.de / Password: xxx Now add your ICQ account under the window->Agents->"Register". Now Jabberwocky connects via the Jabber.de server with your ICQ account. Yahoo Messenger although yahoo! does not use xmpp protocol, you should be able to use the transport methods to gain access and post your replies MSN early months of 2013 Microsoft will ditch MSN Messenger client and force everyone to use Skype...but MSN protocol and servers will keep working as usual for quite a long time.... Occasionally the Messenger servers have been experiencing problems signing in. You may need to sign in at www.outlook.com and then try again. It may also take multiple tries to sign in. (This also affects you if you’re using Skype.) You have to check each servers' Agents List to see what transports (MSN protocol, ICQ protocol, etc.) are supported or use the list address' provided in the section above. Then register with each transport (IRC, MSN, ICQ, etc.) to which you need access. After registering you can Connect to start chatting. msn.jabber.com/registered should appear in the window. From this [http://tech.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/amiga-jabberwocky/message/1378 JW group] guide which helps with this process in a clear, step by step procedure. 1. Sign up on MSN's site for a passport account. This typically involves getting a Hotmail address. 2. Log on to the Jabber server of your choice and do the following: * Select the "Windows/Agents" menu option in Jabberwocky. * Select the MSN Agent from the list presented by the server. * Click the Register button to open a new window asking for: **Username = passort account email address, typically your hotmail address. **Nick = Screen name to be shown to anyone you add to your buddy list. **Password = Password for your passport account/hotmail address. * Click the Register button at the bottom of the new window. 3. If all goes well, you will see the MSN Gateway added to your buddy list. If not, repeat part 2 on another server. Some servers may show MSN in their list of available agents, but have not updated their software for the latest protocols used by MSN. 4. Once you are registered, you can now add people to your buddy list. Note that you need to include the '''msn.''' ahead of the servername so that it knows what gateway agent to use. Some servers may use a slight variation and require '''msg.gate.''' before the server name, so try both to see what works. If my friend's msn was amiga@hotmail.co.uk and my jabber server was @jabber.meta.net.nz.. then amiga'''%'''hotmail.com@'''msn.'''jabber.meta.net.nz or another the trick to import MSN contacts is that you don't type the hotmail URL but the passport URL... e.g. Instead of: goodvibe%hotmail.com@msn.jabber.com You type: goodvibe%passport.com@msn.jabber.com And the thing about importing contacts I'm afraid you'll have to do it by hand, one at the time... Google Talk any XMPP server will work, but you have to add your contacts manually. a google talk user is typically either @gmail.com or @talk.google.com. a true gtalk transport is nice because it brings your contacts to you and (can) also support file transfers to/from google talk users. implement Jingle a set of extensions to the IETF's Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) support ended early 2014 as Google moved to Google+ Hangouts which uses it own proprietary format ===Video Player MPlayer=== Many of the menu features (such as doubling) do not work with the current version of mplayer but using 4:3 mplayer -vf scale=800:600 file.avi 16:9 mplayer -vf scale=854:480 file.avi if you want gui use; mplayer -gui 1 <other params> file.avi <pre > stack 1000000 ; using AspireOS 1.xx ; copy FROM SYS:Extras/Multimedia/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: ; using Icaros Desktop 1.x ; copy FROM SYS:Tools/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: ; using Icaros Desktop 2.x ; copy FROM SYS:Utilities/MPlayer/ TO RAM:MPlayer ALL CLONE > Nil: cd RAM:MPlayer run MPlayer -gui > Nil: ;run MPlayer -gui -ao ahi_dev -playlist http://www.radio-paralax.de/listen.pls > Nil: </pre > $ mplayer rtsp://127.0.0.1:554/sample_300kbit.mp4 MPlayer supports multicast streaming, and rtp/rtsp protocols (it might require [http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/ live555 library] to work with some streams).

For photojournalism, documentary, and event coverage, minimal touching is recommended. Stick to Camera Raw for such shots, and limit changes to level adjustment, sharpness, noise reduction, and white balance correction. For fashion or portrait shoots, a large amount of adjustment is allowed and usually ends up far from the original. Skin smoothing, blemish removal, eye touch-ups, etc. are common. Might alter the background a bit to emphasize the subject. Product photography usually requires a lot of sharpening, spot removal, and focus stacking. For landscape shots, best results are achieved by doing the maximum amount of preparation before/while taking the shot. No amount of processing can match timing, proper lighting, correct gear, optimal settings, etc. Excessive post-processing might give you a dramatic shot but best avoided in the long term. * White Balance - Left Amiga or F12 and K and under "Misc color effects" tab with a pull down for White Balance - color temperature also known as AKA tint (movies) or tones (painting) - warm temp raise red reduce green blue - cool raise blue lower red green * Exposure - exposure compensation, highlight/shadow recovery * Noise Reduction - during RAW development or using external software * Lens Corrections - distortion, vignetting, chromatic aberrations * Detail - capture sharpening and local contrast enhancement * Contrast - black point, levels (sliders) and curves tools (F12 and K) * Framing - straighten () and crop (F12 and F) * Refinements - color adjustments and selective enhancements - Left Amiga or F12 and K for RGB and YUV histogram tabs - * Resizing - enlarge for a print or downsize for the web or email (F12 and D) * Output Sharpening - customized for your subject matter and print/screen size White Balance - F12 and K scan your image for a shade which was meant to be white (neutral with each RGB value being equal) like paper or plastic which is in the same light as the subject of the picture.

Each camera manufacturer has one or more unique RAW formats. RAW files contain the brightness levels data captured by the camera sensor. This data cannot be modified. A second smaller file, separate XML file, or within a database with instructions for the RAW processor to change exposure, saturation etc. The extra data can be changed but the original sensor data is still there. RAW is technically least compatible. A raw file is high-bit (usually 12 or 14 bits of information) but a camera-generated TIFF file will be usually converted by the camera (compressed, downsampled) to 8 bits. The raw file has no embedded color balance or color space, but the TIFF has both. These three things (smaller bit depth, embedded color balance, and embedded color space) make it so that the TIFF will lose quality more quickly with image adjustments than the raw file. The camera-generated TIFF image is much more like a camera processed JPEG than a raw file. A strong advantage goes to the raw file. The power of RAW files, such as the ability to set any color temperature non-destructively and will contain more tonal values. The principle of preserving the maximum amount of information to as late as possible in the process. The final conversion - which will always effectively represent a "downsampling" - should prevent as much loss as possible. Once you save it as TIFF, you throw away some of that data irretrievably. When saving in the lossy JPEG format, you get tremendous file size savings, but you've irreversibly thrown away a lot of image data. As long as you have the RAW file, original or otherwise, you have access to all of the image data as captured.

If not, you're not balanced. If you have sky you'll see the blue channel further off to the right. RGB is best one to change colours. These elements RGB is a 3-channel format containing data for Red, Green, and Blue in your photo scale between 0 and 255. The area in a picture that appears to be brighter/whiter contains more red color as compared to the area which is relatively darker. Similarly in the green channel the area that appears to be darker contains less amount of green color as compared to the area that appears to be brighter. Similarly in the blue channel the area appears to be darker contains less amount of blue color as compared to the area that appears to be brighter. Brightness luminance histogram also matches the green histogram more than any other color - human eye interprets green better e.g. RGB rough ratio 15/55/30% RGBA (RGB+A, A means alpha channel) . The alpha channel is used for "alpha compositing", which can mostly be associated as "opacity". AROS deals in RGB with two digits for every color (red, green, blue), in ARGB you have two additional hex digits for the alpha channel. The shadows are represented by the left third of the graph. The highlights are represented by the right third. And the midtones are, of course, in the middle. The higher the black peaks in the graph, the more pixels are concentrated in that tonal range (total black area). By moving the black endpoint, which identifies the shadows (darkness) and a white light endpoint (brightness) up and down either sides of the graph, colors are adjusted based on these points. By dragging the central one, can increased the midtones and control the contrast, raise shadows levels, clip or softly eliminate unsafe levels, alter gamma, etc... in a way that is much more precise and creative . RGB Curves * Move left endpoint (black point) up or right endpoint (white point) up brightens * Move left endpoint down or right endpoint down darkens Color Curves * Dragging up on the Red Curve increases the intensity of the reds in the image but * Dragging down on the Red Curve decreases the intensity of the reds and thus increases the apparent intensity of its complimentary color, cyan. Green’s complimentary color is magenta, and blue’s is yellow. <pre> Red <-> Cyan Green <->Magenta Blue <->Yellow </pre> YUV Best option to analyse and pull out statistical elements of any picture (i.e. separate luminance data from color data). The line in Y luma tone box represents the brightness of the image with the point in the bottom left been black, and the point in the top right as white. A low-contrast image has a concentrated clump of values nearer to the center of the graph. By comparison, a high-contrast image has a wider distribution of values across the entire width of the Histogram. A histogram that is skewed to the right would indicate a picture that is a bit overexposed because most of the color data is on the lighter side (increase exposure with higher value F), while a histogram with the curve on the left shows a picture that is underexposed. This is good information to have when using post-processing software because it shows you not only where the color data exists for a given picture, but also where any data has been clipped (extremes on edges of either side): that is, it does not exist and, therefore, cannot be edited. By dragging the endpoints of the line and as well as the central one, can increased the dark/shadows, midtones and light/bright parts and control the contrast, raise shadows levels, clip or softly eliminate unsafe levels, alter gamma, etc... in a way that is much more precise and creative . The U and V chroma parts show color difference components of the image. It’s useful for checking whether or not the overall chroma is too high, and also whether it’s being limited too much Can be used to create a negative image but also With U (Cb), the higher value you are, the more you're on the blue primary color. If you go to the low values then you're on blue complementary color, i.e. yellow. With V (Cr), this is the same principle but with Red and Cyan. e.g. If you push U full blue and V full red, you get magenta. If you push U full yellow and V full Cyan then you get green. YUV simultaneously adds to one side of the color equation while subtracting from the other. using YUV to do color correction can be very problematic because each curve alters the result of each other: the mutual influence between U and V often makes things tricky. You may also be careful in what you do to avoid the raise of noise (which happens very easily). Best results are obtained with little adjustments sunset that looks uninspiring and needs some color pop especially for the rays over the hill, a subtle contrast raise while setting luma values back to the legal range without hard clipping.

Ok to be honest Flipbook has some nice features that require more heavy work but those aren't so much needed right away, things like camera effects, sound, smart fill, export to different movie file formats etc. Tried Flipbook with my tablet and compared it to Luna. The feeling is the same when sketching. LunaPaint is very responsive/fluent to draw with. Just as Flipbook is, and that responsiveness is something its users have mentioned as one of the positive sides of said software. author was learning MUI. Some parts just have to be rewritten with proper MUI classes before new features can be added. * add [Frame Add] / [Frame Del] * whole animation feature is impossible to use. If you draw 2 color maybe but if you start coloring your cells then you get in trouble * pickup the entire image as a brush, not just a selection ? And consequently remove the brush from memory when one doesn't need it anymore. can pick up a brush and put it onto a new image but cropping isn't possible, nor to load/save brushes. * Undo is something I longed for ages in Lunapaint. * to import into the current layer, other types of images (e.g. JPEG) besides RAW64. * implement graphic tablet features support **GENERAL DRAWING** Miss it very much: UNDO ERASER COLORPICKER - has to show on palette too which color got picked. BACKGROUND COLOR -Possibility to select from "New project screen" Miss it somewhat: ICON for UNDO ICON for ERASER ICON for CLEAR SCREEN ( What can I say? I start over from scratch very often ) BRUSH - possibility to cut out as brush not just copy off image to brush **ANIMATING** Miss it very much: NUMBER OF CELLS - Possibity to change total no. of cells during project ANIM BRUSH - Possibility to pick up a selected part of cells into an animbrush Miss it somewhat: ADD/REMOVE FRAMES: Add/remove single frame In general LunaPaint is really well done and it feels like a new DeluxePaint version. It works with my tablet. Sure there's much missing of course but things can always be added over time. So there is great potential in LunaPaint that's for sure. Animations could be made in it and maybe put together in QuickVideo, saving in .gif or .mng etc some day. LAYERS -Layers names don't get saved globally in animation frames -Layers order don't change globally in an animation (perhaps as default?). EXPORTING IMAGES -Exporting frames to JPG/PNG gives problems with colors. (wrong colors. See my animatiopn --> My robot was blue now it's "gold" ) I think this only happens if you have layers. -Trying to flatten the layers before export doesn't work if you have animation frames only the one you have visible will flatten properly all other frames are destroyed. (Only one of the layers are visible on them) -Exporting images filenames should be for example e.g. file0001, file0002...file0010 instead as of now file1, file2...file10 LOAD/SAVE (Preferences) -Make a setting for the default "Work" folder. * Destroyed colors if exported image/frame has layers * mystic color cycling of the selected color while stepping frames back/forth (annoying) <pre> Deluxe Paint II enhanced key shortcuts NOTE: @ denotes the ALT key [Technique] F1 - Paint F2 - Single Colour F3 - Replace F4 - Smear F5 - Shade F6 - Cycle F7 - Smooth M - Colour Cycle [Brush] B - Restore O - Outline h - Halve brush size H - Double brush size x - Flip brush on X axis X - Double brush size on X axis only y - Flip on Y Y - Double on Y z - Rotate brush 90 degrees Z - Stretch [Stencil] ` - Stencil On [Miscellaneous] F9 - Info Bar F10 - Selection Bar @o - Co-Ordinates @a - Anti-alias @r - Colourise @t - Translucent TAB - Colour Cycle [Picture] L - Load S - Save j - Page to Spare(Flip) J - Page to Spare(Copy) V - View Page Q - Quit [General Keys] m - Magnify < - Zoom In > - Zoom Out [ - Palette Colour Up ] - Palette Colour Down ( - Palette Colour Left ) - Palette Colour Right , - Eye Dropper . - Pixel / Brush Toggle / - Symmetry | - Co-Ordinates INS - Perspective Control +/- - Brush Size (Fine Control) w - Unfilled Polygon W - Filled Polygon e - Unfilled Ellipse E - Filled Ellipse r - Unfilled Rectangle R - Filled Rectangle t - Type/text tool a - Select Font u/U - Undo d - Brush D - Filled Non-Uniform Polygon f/F - Fill Options g/G - Grid h/H - Brush Size (Coarse Control) K - Clear c - Unfilled Circle C - Filled Circle v - Line b - Scissor Select and Toggle B - Brush {,} - Toggle between two background colours </pre> ====Lodepaint==== Pixel based painting artwork app ====Grafx2==== Pixel based painting artwork app aesprite like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59Y6OTzNrhk aesprite workflow keys and tablet use], [], ====Vector Graphics ZuneFIG==== Vector Image Editing of files .svg .ps .eps *Objects - raise lower rotate flip aligning snapping *Path - unify subtract intersect exclude divide *Colour - fill stroke *Stroke - size *Brushes - *Layers - *Effects - gaussian bevels glows shadows *Text - *Transform - AmiFIG ([http://epb.lbl.gov/xfig/frm_introduction.html xfig manual]) [[File:MyScreen.png|thumb|left|alt=Showing all Windows open in AmiFIG.|All windows available to AmiFIG.]] for drawing simple to intermediate vector graphic images for scientific and technical uses and for illustration purposes for those with talent ;Menu options * Load - fig format but import(s) SVG * Save - fig format but export(s) eps, ps, pdf, svg and png * PAN = Ctrl + Arrow keys * Deselect all points There is no selected object until you apply the tool, and the selected object is not highlighted. ;Metrics - to set up page and styles - first window to open on new drawings ;Tools - Drawing Primitives - set Attributes window first before clicking any Tools button(s) * Shapes - circles, ellipses, arcs, splines, boxes, polygon * Lines - polylines * Text "T" button * Photos - bitmaps * Compound - Glue, Break, Scale * POINTs - Move, Add, Remove * Objects - Move, Copy, Delete, Mirror, Rotate, Paste use right mouse button to stop extra lines, shapes being formed and the left mouse to select/deselect tools button(s) * Rotate - moves in 90 degree turns centered on clicked POINT of a polygon or square ;Attributes which provide change(s) to the above primitives * Color * Line Width * Line Style * arrowheads ;Modes Choose from freehand, charts, figures, magnet, etc. ;Library - allows .fig clip-art to be stored * compound tools to add .fig(s) together ;FIG 3.2 [http://epb.lbl.gov/xfig/fig-format.html Format] as produced by xfig version 3.2.5 <pre> Landscape Center Inches Letter 100.00 Single -2 1200 2 4 0 0 50 -1 0 12 0.0000 4 135 1050 1050 2475 This is a test.01 </pre> # change the text alignment within the textbox.

If an app uses panning, this is what you will get. Note that apps like Audio Evolution need panning, so they will have this problem. # When using AHI Hifi modes, mixing is done in 32-bit and sent as 32-bit data to the driver. The Envy24HT driver uses that to output at 24-bit (always). # For the Envy24/Envy24HT, I've made 16-bit and 24-bit inputs (called Line-in 16-bit, Line-in 24-bit etc.). There is unfortunately no app that can handle 24-bit recording. ====Music Mods==== Digital module (mods) trackers are music creation software using samples and sometimes soundfonts, audio plugins (VST, AU or RTAS), MIDI. Generally, MODs are similar to MIDI in that they contain note on/off and other sequence messages that control the mod player. Unlike (most) midi files, however, they also contain sound samples that the sequence information actually plays. MOD files can have many channels (classic amiga mods have 4, corresponding to the inbuilt sound channels), but unlike MIDI, each channel can typically play only one note at once. However, since that note might be a sample of a chord, a drumloop or other complex sound, this is not as limiting as it sounds. Like MIDI, notes will play indefinitely if they're not instructed to end. Most trackers record this information automatically if you play your music in live. If you're using manual note entry, you can enter a note-off command with a keyboard shortcut - usually Caps Lock. In fact when considering file size MOD is not always the best option. Even a dummy song wastes few kilobytes for nothing when a simple SID tune could be few hundreds bytes and not bigger than 64kB. AHX is another small format, AHX tunes are never larger than 64kB excluding comments.

A Track of Note(s) can be collected into a Pattern (section of a song) and these can be given Order to create the whole song. Patience (notes have to be entered one at a time) or playing the bassline on a midi controller (faster - see midi section above). Best approach is to wait until a melody popped into your head. *Up-tempo means the track should be reasonably fast, but not super-fast. *Groovy and funky imply the track should have some sort of "swing" feel, with plenty of syncopation or off beat emphasis and a recognizable, melodic bass line. *Sweet and happy mean upbeat melodies, a major key and avoiding harsh sounds. *Moody - minor key First, create a quick bass sound, which is basically a sine wave, but can be hand drawn for a little more variance. It could also work for the melody part, too. This is usually a bass guitar or some kind of synthesizer bass. The bass line is often forgotten by inexperienced composers, but it plays an important role in a musical piece. Together with the rhythm section the bass line forms the groove of a song. It's the glue between the rhythm section and the melodic layer of a song. The drums are just pink noise samples, played at different frequencies to get a slightly different sound for the kick, snare, and hihats. Instruments that fall into the rhythm category are bass drums, snares, hi-hats, toms, cymbals, congas, tambourines, shakers, etc. Any percussive instrument can be used to form part of the rhythm section. The lead is the instrument that plays the main melody, on top of the chords. There are many instruments that can play a lead section, like a guitar, a piano, a saxophone or a flute. The list is almost endless. There is a lot of overlap with instruments that play chords. Often in one piece an instrument serves both roles. The lead melody is often played at a higher pitch than the chords. Listened back to what was produced so far, and a counter-melody can be imagined, which can be added with a triangle wave. To give the ends of phrases some life, you can add a solo part with a crunchy synth. By hitting random notes in the key of G, then edited a few of them. For the climax of the song, filled out the texture with a gentle high-pitch pad… …and a grungy bass synth. The arrow at A points at the pattern order list. As you see, the patterns don't have to be in numerical order. This song starts with pattern "00", then pattern "02", then "03", then "01", etcetera. Patterns may be repeated throughout a song. The B arrow points at the song title. Below it are the global BPM and speed parameters. These determine the tempo of the song, unless the tempo is altered through effect commands during the song. The C arrow points at the list of instruments. An instrument may consist of multiple samples. Which sample will be played depends on the note. This can be set in the Instrument Editing screen. Most instruments will consist of just one sample, though. The sample list for the selected instrument can be found under arrow D. Here's a part of the main editing screen. This is where you put in actual notes. Up to 32 channels can be used, meaning 32 sounds can play simultaneously. The first six channels of pattern "03" at order "02" are shown here. The arrow at A points at the row number. The B arrow points at the note to play, in this case a C4. The column pointed at by the C arrow tells us which instrument is associated with that note, in this case instrument #1 "Kick". The column at D is used (mainly) for volume commands. In this case it is left empty which means the instrument should play at its default volume. You can see the volume column being used in channel #6. The E column tells us which effect to use and any parameters for that effect. In this case it holds the "F" effect, which is a tempo command. The "04" means it should play at tempo 4 (a smaller number means faster). Base pattern When I create a new track I start with what I call the base pattern. It is worthwhile to spend some time polishing it as a lot of the ideas in the base pattern will be copied and used in other patterns. At least, that's how I work. Every musician will have his own way of working. In "Wild Bunnies" the base pattern is pattern "03" at order "02". In the section about selecting samples I talked about the four different categories of instruments: drums, bass, chords and leads. That's also how I usually go about making the base pattern. I start by making a drum pattern, then add a bass line, place some chords and top it off with a lead. This forms the base pattern from which the rest of the song will grow. Drums Here's a screenshot of the first four rows of the base pattern. I usually reserve the first four channels or so for the drum instruments. Right away there are a couple of tricks shown here. In the first channel the kick, or bass drum, plays some notes. Note the alternating F04 and F02 commands. The "F" command alters the tempo of the song and by quickly alternating the tempo; the song will get some kind of "swing" feel. In the second channel the closed hi-hat plays a fairly simple pattern. Further down in the channel, not shown here, some open hi-hat notes are added for a bit of variation. In the third and fourth channel the snare sample plays. The "8" command is for panning. One note is panned hard to the left and the other hard to the right. One sample is played a semitone lower than the other. This results in a cool flanging effect. It makes the snare stand out a little more in the mix. Bass line There are two different instruments used for the bass line. Instrument #6 is a pretty standard synthesized bass sound. Instrument #A sounds a bit like a slap bass when used with a quick fade out. By using two different instruments the bass line sounds a bit more ”human”. The volume command is used to cut off the notes. However, it is never set to zero. Setting the volume to a very small value will result in a reverb-like effect. This makes the song sound more "live". The bass line hints at the chords that will be played and the key the song will be in. In this case the key of the song is D-major, a positive and happy key. Chords The D major chords that are being played here are chords stabs; short sounds with a quick decay (fade out). Two different instruments (#8 and #9) are used to form the chords. These instruments are quite similar, but have a slightly different sound, panning and volume decay. Again, the reason for this is to make the sound more human. The volume command is used on some chords to simulate a delay, to achieve more of a live feel. The chords are placed off-beat making for a funky rhythm. Lead Finally the lead melody is added. The other instruments are invaluable in holding the track together, but the lead melody is usually what catches people's attention. A lot of notes and commands are used here, but it looks more complex than it is. A stepwise ascending melody plays in channel 13. Channel 14 and 15 copy this melody, but play it a few rows later at a lower volume. This creates an echo effect. A bit of panning is used on the notes to create some stereo depth. Like with the bass line, instead of cutting off notes the volume is set to low values for a reverb effect. The "461" effect adds a little vibrato to the note, which sounds nice on sustained notes. Those paying close attention may notice the instrument used here for the lead melody is the same as the one used for the bass line (#6 "Square"), except played two or three octaves higher. This instrument is a looped square wave sample. Each type of wave has its own quirks, but the square wave (shown below) is a really versatile wave form. Song structure Good, catchy songs are often carefully structured into sections, some of which are repeated throughout the song with small variations. A typical pop-song structure is: Intro - Verse - Chorus - Verse - Chorus - Bridge - Chorus. Other single sectional song structures are <pre> Strophic or AAA Song Form - oldest story telling with refrain (often title of the song) repeated in every verse section melody AABA Song Form - early popular, jazz and gospel fading during the 1960s AB or Verse/Chorus Song Form - songwriting format of choice for modern popular music since the 1960s Verse/Chorus/Bridge Song Form ABAB Song Form ABAC Song Form ABCD Song Form AAB 12-Bar Song Form - three four-bar lines or sub-sections 8-Bar Song Form 16-Bar Song Form Hybrid / Compound Song Forms </pre> The most common building blocks are: #INTRODUCTION(INTRO) #VERSE #REFRAIN #PRE-CHORUS / RISE / CLIMB #CHORUS #BRIDGE #MIDDLE EIGHT #SOLO / INSTRUMENTAL BREAK #COLLISION #CODA / OUTRO #AD LIB (OFTEN IN CODA / OUTRO) The chorus usually has more energy than the verse and often has a memorable melody line. As the chorus is repeated the most often during the song, it will be the part that people will remember. The bridge often marks a change of direction in the song. It is not uncommon to change keys in the bridge, or at least to use a different chord sequence. The bridge is used to build up tension towards the big finale, the last repetition of chorus.

Input a note, then move the cursor to the effects command column and type a C. Play the pattern, and you shouldn't be able to hear the note you placed the C by. This is because the effect parameters are 00. Change the two zeros to a 40(Hex)/64(Dec), depending on what your tracker uses. Play back the pattern again, and the note should come in at full volume. The Position Jump command next. This is just a B followed by the position in the playing list that you want to jump to. One thing to remember is that the playing list always starts at 0, not 1. This command is usually in Hex. Onto the volume slide command: A. This is slightly more complex (much more if you're using a newer tracker, if you want to achieve the results here, then set slides to Amiga, not linear), due to the fact it depends on the secondary tempo. For now set a secondary tempo of 06 (you can play around later), load a long or looped sample and input a note or two. A few rows after a note type in the effect command A. For the parameters use 0F. Play back the pattern, and you should notice that when the effect kicks in, the sample drops to a very low volume very quickly. Change the effect parameters to F0, and use a low volume command on the note. Play back the pattern, and when the slide kicks in the volume of the note should increase very quickly. This because each part of the effect parameters for command A does a different thing. The first number slides the volume up, and the second slides it down. It's not recommended that you use both a volume up and volume down at the same time, due to the fact the tracker only looks for the first number that isn't set to 0. If you specify parameters of 8F, the tracker will see the 8, ignore the F, and slide the volume up. Using a slide up and down at same time just makes you look stupid. Don't do it... The Set Tempo command: F, is pretty easy to understand. You simply specify the BPM (in Hex) that you want to change to. One important thing to note is that values of lower than 20 (Hex) sets the secondary tempo rather than the primary. Another useful command is the Pattern Break: D. This will stop the playing of the current pattern and skip to the next one in the playing list. By using parameters of more than 00 you can also specify which line to begin playing from. Command 3 is Portamento to Note. This slides the currently playing note to another note, at a specified speed. The slide then stops when it reaches the desired note. <pre> C-2 1 000 - Starts the note playing --- 000 C-3 330 - Starts the slide to C-3 at a speed of 30. --- 300 - Continues the slide --- 300 - Continues the slide </pre> Once the parameters have been set, the command can be input again without any parameters, and it'll still perform the same function unless you change the parameters. This memory function allows certain commands to function correctly, such as command 5, which is the Portamento to Note and Volume Slide command. Once command 3 has been set up command 5 will simply take the parameters from that and perform a Portamento to Note. Any parameters set up for command 5 itself simply perform a Volume Slide identical to command A at the same time as the Portamento to Note. This memory function will only operate in the same channel where the original parameters were set up. There are various other commands which perform two functions at once. They will be described as we come across them. C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 02 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 05 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 08 C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 0A C-3 04 .. .. 09 00 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 0D C-3 04 .. .. 09 10 ---> C-3 04 .. .. 09 10 (You can also switch on the Slider Rec to On, and perform parameter-live-recording, such as cutoff transitions, resonance or panning tweaking, etc..) Note: this command only works for volume/panning and fx datas columns. The next command we'll look at is the Portamento up/down: 1 and 2. Command 1 slides the pitch up at a specified speed, and 2 slides it down. This command works in a similar way to the volume slide, in that it is dependent on the secondary tempo. Both these commands have a memory dependent on each other, if you set the slide to a speed of 3 with the 1 command, a 2 command with no parameters will use the speed of 3 from the 1 command, and vice versa. Command 4 is Vibrato. Vibrato is basically rapid changes in pitch, just try it, and you'll see what I mean. Parameters are in the format of xy, where x is the speed of the slide, and y is the depth of the slide. One important point to remember is to keep your vibratos subtle and natural so a depth of 3 or less and a reasonably fast speed, around 8, is usually used. Setting the depth too high can make the part sound out of tune from the rest. Following on from command 4 is command 6. This is the Vibrato and Volume Slide command, and it has a memory like command 5, which you already know how to use. Command 7 is Tremolo. This is similar to vibrato. Rather than changing the pitch it slides the volume. The effect parameters are in exactly the same format. vibrato effect (0x1dxy) x = speed y = depth (can't be used if arpeggio (0x1b) is turned on) <pre> C-7 00 .. .. 1B37 <- Turn Arpeggio effect on --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 1B38 <- Change datas --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 0000 --- .. .. .. 1B00 <- Turn it off </pre> Command 9 is Sample Offset. This starts the playback of the sample from a different place than the start. The effect parameters specify the sample offset, but only very roughly. Say you have a sample which is 8765(Hex) bytes long, and you wanted it to play from position 4321(Hex). The effect parameter could only be as accurate as the 43 part, and it would ignore the 21. Command B is the Playing List/Order Jump command. The parameters specify the position in the Playing List/Order to jump to. When used in conjunction with command D you can specify the position and the line to play from. Command E is pretty complex, as it is used for a lot of different things, depending on what the first parameter is. Let's take a trip through each effect in order. Command E0 controls the hardware filter on an Amiga, which, as a low pass filter, cuts off the highest frequencies being played back. There are very few players and trackers on other system that simulate this function, not that you should need to use it. The second parameter, if set to 1, turns on the filter. If set to 0, the filter gets turned off. Commands E1/E2 are Fine Portamento Up/Down. Exactly the same functions as commands 1/2, except that they only slide the pitch by a very small amount. These commands have a memory the same as 1/2 as well. Command E3 sets the Glissando control. If parameters are set to 1 then when using command 3, any sliding will only use the notes in between the original note and the note being slid to. This produces a somewhat jumpier slide than usual. The best way to understand is to try it out for yourself. Produce a slow slide with command 3, listen to it, and then try using E31. Command E4 is the Set Vibrato Waveform control. This command controls how the vibrato command slides the pitch. Parameters are 0 - Sine, 1 - Ramp Down (Saw), 2 - Square. By adding 4 to the parameters, the waveform will not be restarted when a new note is played e.g. 5 - Sine without restart. Command E5 sets the Fine Tune of the instrument being played, but only for the particular note being played. It will override the default Fine Tune for the instrument. The parameters range from 0 to F, with 0 being -8 and F being +8 Fine Tune. A parameter of 8 gives no Fine Tune. If you're using a newer tracker that supports more than -8 to +8 e.g. -128 to +128, these parameters will give a rough Fine Tune, accurate to the nearest 16. Command E6 is the Jump Loop command. You mark the beginning of the part of a pattern that you want to loop with E60, and then specify with E6x the end of the loop, where x is the number of times you want it to loop. Command E7 is the Set Tremolo Waveform control. This has exactly the same parameters as command E4, except that it works for Tremolo rather than Vibrato. Command E9 is for Retriggering the note quickly. The parameter specifies the interval between the retrigs. Use a value of less than the current secondary tempo, or else the note will not get retrigged. Command EA/B are for Fine Volume Slide Up/Down. Much the same as the normal Volume Slides, except that these are easier to control since they don't depend on the secondary tempo. The parameters specify the amount to slide by e.g. if you have a sample playing at a volume of 08 (Hex) then the effect EA1 will slide this volume to 09 (Hex). A subsequent effect of EB4 would slide this volume down to 05 (Hex). Command EC is the Note Cut. This sets the volume of the currently playing note to 0 at a specified tick. The parameters should be lower than the secondary tempo or else the effect won't work. Command ED is the Note Delay. This should be used at the same time as a note is to be played, and the parameters will specify the number of ticks to delay playing the note. Again, keep the parameters lower than the secondary tempo, or the note won't get played! Command EE is the Pattern Delay. This delays the pattern for the amount of time it would take to play a certain number of rows. The parameters specify how many rows to delay for. Command EF is the Funk Repeat command. Set the sample loop to 0-1000. When EFx is used, the loop will be moved to 1000- 2000, then to 2000-3000 etc. After 9000-10000 the loop is set back to 0- 1000. The speed of the loop "movement" is defined by x. E is two times as slow as F, D is three times as slow as F etc. EF0 will turn the Funk Repeat off and reset the loop (to 0-1000). effects 0x41 and 0x42 to control the volumes of the 2 303 units There is a dedicated panel for synth parameter editing with coherent sections (osc, filter modulation, routing, so on) the interface is much nicer, much better to navigate with customizable colors, the reverb is now customizable (10 delay lines), It accepts newer types of Waves (higher bit rates, at least 24). Has a replay routine. It's pretty much your basic VA synth. The problem isn't with the sampler being to high it's the synth is tuned two octaves too low, but if you want your samples tuned down just set the base note down 2 octaves (in the instrument panel). so the synth is basically divided into 3 sections from left to right: oscillators/envelopes, then filter and LFO's, and in the right column you have mod routings and global settings. for the oscillator section you have two normal oscillators (sine, saw, square, noise), the second of which is tunable, the first one tunes with the key pressed. Attached to OSC 1 is a sub-oscillator, which is a sawtooth wave tuned one octave down. The phase modulation controls the point in the duty cycle at which the oscillator starts. The ADSR envelope sliders (grouped with oscs) are for modulation envelope 1 and 2 respectively. you can use the synth as a sampler by choosing the instrument at the top. In the filter column, the filter settings are: 1 = lowpass, 2 = highpass, 3 = off. cutoff and resonance. For the LFOs they are LFO 1 and LFO 2, the ADSR sliders in those are for the LFO itself. For the modulation routings you have ENV 1, LFO 1 for the first slider and ENV 2, LFO 2 for the second, you can cycle through the individual routings there, and you can route each modulation source to multiple destinations of course, which is another big plus for this synth. Finally the glide time is for portamento and master volume, well, the master volume... it can go quite loud. The sequencer is changed too, It's more like the one in AXS if you've used that, where you can mute tracks to re-use patterns with variation. <pre> Support for the following modules formats: 669 (Composer 669, Unis 669), AMF (DSMI Advanced Module Format), AMF (ASYLUM Music Format V1.0), APUN (APlayer), DSM (DSIK internal format), FAR (Farandole Composer), GDM (General DigiMusic), IT (Impulse Tracker), IMF (Imago Orpheus), MOD (15 and 31 instruments), MED (OctaMED), MTM (MultiTracker Module editor), OKT (Amiga Oktalyzer), S3M (Scream Tracker 3), STM (Scream Tracker), STX (Scream Tracker Music Interface Kit), ULT (UltraTracker), UNI (MikMod), XM (FastTracker 2), Mid (midi format via timidity) </pre> Possible plugin options include [http://lv2plug.in/ LV2], ====Midi - Musical Instrument Digital Interface==== A midi file typically contains music that plays on up to 16 channels (as per the midi standard), but many notes can simultaneously play on each channel (depending on the limit of the midi hardware playing it).

Bars and Pipes Pro 2.5 is using internal 4-Byte IDs, to check which kind of data are currently processed. Especially in all its files the IDs play an important role. The IDs are stored into the file in the same order they are laid out in the memory. In a Bars 'N' Pipes file (no matter which kind) the ID "NAME" (saved as its ANSI-values) is stored on a big endian system (68k-computer) as "NAME". On a little endian system (x86 PC computer) as "EMAN". The target is to make the AROS-BnP compatible to songs, which were stored on a 68k computer (AMIGA). If possible, setting MIDI channels for Local Control for your keyboard http://www.fromwithin.com/liquidmidi/archive.shtml MIDI files are essentially a stream of event data.

Would it be possible to enrich Bars N’Pipes with software synth and sample support along with audio recording and mastering tools like in the named MAC or PC music sequencers? On the classic AMIGA-OS this is not possible because of missing CPU-power. The hardware of the classic AMIGA is not further developed. So we must say (unfortunately) that those dreams can’t become reality BarsnPipes is best used with external MIDI-equipment. This can be a keyboard or synthesizer with MIDI-connectors. <pre> MIDI can control 16 channels There are USB-MIDI-Interfaces on the market with 16 independent MIDI-lines (multi-port), which can handle 16 MIDI devices independently – 16×16 = 256 independent MIDI-channels or instruments handle up to 16 different USB-MIDI-Interfaces (multi-device).

First of all, midi in & out capabilities of this program are rather limited. # Go to Misc. Setup section and select a midi in or out device to use (ptk only supports one device at a time). # Go to instrument section, and select a MIDI PRG (the default is N/A, which means no midi program selected). # Go to track section and here you can assign a midi channel to each track of ptk. # Play notes :]. Note off works. F'x' note cut command also works too, and note-volume command (speed) is supported. Also, you can change midicontrollers in the tracker, using '90' in the panning row: <pre> C-3 02 .. .. 0000.... --- .. .. 90 xxyy.... << This will set the value --- .. .. .. 0000.... of the controller n.'xx' to 'yy' (both in hex) --- .. .. .. 0000.... </pre> So "--- .. .. 90 2040...." will set the controller number $20(32) to $40(64). You will need the midi implementation table of your gear to know what you can change with midi controller messages. N.B. Not all MIDI devices are created equal! Although the MIDI specification defines a large range of MIDI messages of various kinds, not every MIDI device is required to work in exactly the same way and respond to all the available messages and ways of working. For example, we don't expect a wind synthesiser to work in the same way as a home keyboard. Some devices, the older ones perhaps, are only able to respond to a single channel. With some of those devices that channel can be altered from the default of 1 (probably) to another channel of the 16 possible. Other devices, for instance monophonic synthesisers, are capable of producing just one note at a time, on one MIDI channel. Others can produce many notes spread across many channels. Further devices can respond to, and transmit, "breath controller" data (MIDI controller number 2 (CC#2)) others may respond to the reception of CC#2 but not be able to create and to send it. A controller keyboard may be capable of sending "expression pedal" data, but another device may not be capable of responding to that message. Some devices just have the basic GM sound set. The "voice" or "instrument" is selected using a "Program Change" message on its own. Other devices have a greater selection of voices, usually arranged in "banks", and the choice of instrument is made by responding to "Bank Select MSB" (MIDI controller 0 (CC#0)), others use "Bank Select LSB" (MIDI controller number 32 (CC#32)), yet others use both MSB and LSB sent one after the other, all followed by the Program Change message. The detailed information about all the different voices will usually be available in a published MIDI Data List. MIDI Implementation Chart But in the User Manual there is sometimes a summary of how the device works, in terms of MIDI, in the chart at the back of the manual, the MIDI Implementation Chart. If you require two devices to work together you can compare the two implementation charts to see if they are "compatible". In order to do this we will need to interpret that chart. The chart is divided into four columns headed "Function", "Transmitted" (or "Tx"), "Received" (or "Rx"), or more correctly "Recognised", and finally, "Remarks". <pre> The left hand column defines which MIDI functions are being described. The 2nd column defines what the device in question is capable of transmitting to another device. The 3rd column defines what the device is capable of responding to. The 4th column is for explanations of the values contained within these previous two columns. </pre> There should then be twelve sections, with possibly a thirteenth containing extra "Notes". Finally there should be an explanation of the four MIDI "modes" and what the "X" and the "O" mean. <pre> Mode 1: Omni On, Poly; Mode 2: Omni On, Mono; Mode 3: Omni Off, Poly; Mode 4: Omni Off, Mono. </pre> O means "yes" (implemented), X means "no" (not implemented). Sometimes you will find a row of asterisks "**************", these seem to indicate that the data is not applicable in this case. Seen in the transmitted field only (unless you've seen otherwise). Lastly you may find against some entries an asterisk followed by a number e.g. *1, these will refer you to further information, often on a following page, giving more detail. Basic Channel But the very first set of boxes will tell us the "Basic Channel(s)" that the device sends or receives on. "Default" is what happens when the device is first turned on, "changed" is what a switch of some kind may allow the device to be set to. For many devices e.g. a GM sound module or a home keyboard, this would be 1-16 for both. That is it can handle sending and receiving on all MIDI channels. On other devices, for example a synthesiser, it may by default only work on channel 1. But the keyboard could be "split" with the lower notes e.g. on channel 2. If the synth has an arppegiator, this may be able to be set to transmit and or receive on yet another channel. So we might see the default as "1" but the changed as "1-16". Modes. We need to understand Omni On and Off, and Mono and Poly, then we can decipher the four modes. But first we need to understand that any of these four Mode messages can be sent to any MIDI channel. They don't necessarily apply to the whole device. If we send an "Omni On" message (CC#125) to a MIDI channel of a device, we are, in effect, asking it to respond to e.g. a Note On / Off message pair, received on any of the sixteen channels. Sound strange? Read it again. Still strange? It certainly is. We normally want a MIDI channel to respond only to Note On / Off messages sent on that channel, not any other. In other words, "Omni Off". So "Omni Off" (CC#124) tells a channel of our MIDI device to respond only to messages sent on that MIDI channel. "Poly" (CC#127) is for e.g. a channel of a polyphonic sound module, or a home keyboard, to be able to respond to many simultaneous Note On / Off message pairs at once and produce musical chords. "Mono" (CC#126) allows us to set a channel to respond as if it were e.g. a flute or a trumpet, playing just one note at a time. If the device is capable of it, then the overlapping of notes will produce legato playing, that is the attack portion of the second note of two overlapping notes will be removed resulting in a "smoother" transition. So a channel with a piano voice assigned to it will have Omni Off, Poly On (Mode 3), a channel with a saxophone voice assigned could be Omni Off, Mono On (Mode 4). We call these combinations the four modes, 1 to 4, as defined above. Most modern devices will have their channels set to Mode 3 (Omni Off, Poly) but be switchable, on a per channel basis, to Mode 4 (Omni Off, Mono). This second section of data will include first its default value i.e. upon device switch on. Then what Mode messages are acceptable, or X if none. Finally, in the "Altered" field, how a Mode message that can't be implemented will be interpreted. Usually there will just be a row of asterisks effectively meaning nothing will be done if you try to switch to an unimplemented mode. Note Number <pre> The next row will tell us which MIDI notes the device can send or receive, normally 0-127. The second line, "True Voice" has the following in the MIDI specification: "Range of received note numbers falling within the range of true notes produced by the instrument." My interpretation is that, for instance, a MIDI piano may be capable of sending all MIDI notes (0 to 127) by transposition, but only responding to the 88 notes (21 to 108) of a real piano. </pre> Velocity This will tell us whether the device we're looking at will handle note velocity, and what range from 1-127, or maybe just 64, it transmits or will recognise. So usually "O" plus a range or "X" for not implemented. After touch This may have one or two lines two it. If a one liner the either "O" or "X", yes or no. If a two liner then it may include "Keys" or "Poly" and "Channel". This will show whether the device will respond to Polyphonic after touch or channel after touch or neither. Pitch Bend Again "O" for implemented, "X" for not implemented. (Many stage pianos will have no pitch bend capability.) It may also, in the notes section, state whether it will respond to the full 14 bits, or not, as usually encoded by the pitch bend wheel. Control Change This is likely to be the largest section of the chart. It will list all those controllers, starting from CC#0, Bank Select MSB, which the device is capable of sending, and those that it will respond to using "O" or "X" respectively. You will, almost certainly, get some further explanation of functionality in the remarks column, or in more detail elsewhere in the documentation. Of course you will need to know what all the various controller numbers do. Lots of the official technical specifications can be found at the [www.midi.org/techspecs/ MMA], with the table of messages and control change [www.midi.org/techspecs/midimessages.php message numbers] Program Change Again "O" or "X" in the Transmitted or Recognised column to indicate whether or not the feature is implemented. In addition a range of numbers is shown, typically 0-127, to show what is available. True # (number): "The range of the program change numbers which correspond to the actual number of patches selected." System Exclusive Used to indicate whether or not the device can send or recognise System Exclusive messages. A short description is often given in the Remarks field followed by a detailed explanation elsewhere in the documentation. System Common - These include the following: <pre> MIDI Time Code Quarter Frame messages (device synchronisation). Song Position Pointer Song Select Tune Request </pre> The section will indicate whether or not the device can send or respond to any of these messages. System Real Time These include the following: <pre> Timing Clock - often just written as "Clock" Start Stop Continue </pre> These three are usually just referred to as "Commands" and listed. Again the section will indicate which, if any, of these messages the device can send or respond to. <pre> Aux. Messages Again "O" or "X" for implemented or not. Aux. = Auxiliary. Active Sense = Active Sensing. </pre> Often with an explanation of the action of the device. Notes The "Notes" section can contain any additional comments to clarify the particular implementation. Some of the explanations have been drawn directly from the MMA MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification. And the detailed explanation of some of the functions will be found there, or in the General MIDI System Level 1 or General MIDI System Level 2 documents also published by the MMA.

This the same code as the Control Change (above), but implements Mode control and special message by using reserved controller numbers 120-127. The commands are: *All Sound Off. When All Sound Off is received all oscillators will turn off, and their volume envelopes are set to zero as soon as possible c = 120, v = 0: All Sound Off *Reset All Controllers. When Reset All Controllers is received, all controller values are reset to their default values. (See specific Recommended Practices for defaults) c = 121, v = x: Value must only be zero unless otherwise allowed in a specific Recommended Practice. *Local Control. When Local Control is Off, all devices on a given channel will respond only to data received over MIDI. Played data, etc. will be ignored. Local Control On restores the functions of the normal controllers. c = 122, v = 0: Local Control Off c = 122, v = 127: Local Control On * All Notes Off. When an All Notes Off is received, all oscillators will turn off. c = 123, v = 0: All Notes Off (See text for description of actual mode commands.) c = 124, v = 0: Omni Mode Off c = 125, v = 0: Omni Mode On c = 126, v = M: Mono Mode On (Poly Off) where M is the number of channels (Omni Off) or 0 (Omni On) c = 127, v = 0: Poly Mode On (Mono Off) (Note: These four messages also cause All Notes Off) |} System Common Messages System Messages (0xF0) The final status nybble is a “catch all” for data that doesn’t fit the other statuses. They all use the most significant nybble (4bits) of 0xF, with the least significant nybble indicating the specific category. The messages are denoted when the MSB of the second nybble is 1. When that bit is a 0, the messages fall into two other subcategories. System Common If the MSB of the second second nybble (4 bits) is not set, this indicates a System Common message. Most of these are messages that include some additional data bytes. System Common Messages Type Status Byte Number of Data Bytes Usage <pre> Time Code Quarter Frame 0xF1 1 Indicates timing using absolute time code, primarily for synthronization with video playback systems. A single location requires eight messages to send the location in an encoded hours:minutes:seconds:frames format*. Song Position 0xF2 2 Instructs a sequencer to jump to a new position in the song. The data bytes form a 14-bit value that expresses the location as the number of sixteenth notes from the start of the song. Song Select 0xF3 1 Instructs a sequencer to select a new song. The data byte indicates the song. Undefined 0xF4 0 Undefined 0xF5 0 Tune Request 0xF6 0 Requests that the receiver retunes itself**. </pre> *MIDI Time Code (MTC) is significantly complex. Please see the MIDI Specification **While modern digital instruments are good at staying in tune, older analog synthesizers were prone to tuning drift. Some analog synthesizers had an automatic tuning operation that could be initiated with this command. System Exclusive If you’ve been keeping track, you’ll notice there are two status bytes not yet defined: 0xf0 and 0xf7. These are used by the System Exclusive message, often abbreviated at SysEx. SysEx provides a path to send arbitrary data over a MIDI connection. There is a group of predefined messages for complex data, like fine grained control of MIDI Time code machinery. SysEx is also used to send manufacturer defined data, such as patches, or even firmware updates. System Exclusive messages are longer than other MIDI messages, and can be any length. The messages are of the following format: 0xF0, 0xID, 0xdd, ...... 0xF7 The message is bookended with distinct bytes. It opens with the Start Of Exclusive (SOX) data byte, 0xF0. The next one to three bytes after the start are an identifier. Values from 0x01 to 0x7C are one-byte vendor IDs, assigned to manufacturers who were involved with MIDI at the beginning. If the ID is 0x00, it’s a three-byte vendor ID - the next two bytes of the message are the value. <pre> ID 0x7D is a placeholder for non-commercial entities. ID 0x7E indicates a predefined Non-realtime SysEx message. ID 0x7F indicates a predefined Realtime SysEx message. </pre> After the ID is the data payload, sent as a stream of bytes. The transfer concludes with the End of Exclusive (EOX) byte, 0xF7. The payload data must follow the guidelines for MIDI data bytes – the MSB must not be set, so only 7 bits per byte are actually usable. If the MSB is set, it falls into three possible scenarios. An End of Exclusive byte marks the ordinary termination of the SysEx transfer. System Real Time messages may occur within the transfer without interrupting it. The recipient should handle them independently of the SysEx transfer. Other status bytes implicitly terminate the SysEx transfer and signal the start of new messages. Some inexpensive USB-to-MIDI interfaces aren’t capable of handling messages longer than four bytes. {| class="wikitable sortable" width="90%" ! width="10%" |Status D7----D0 ! width="10%" |Data Byte(s) D7----D0 ! width="20%" |Description |- |<!--Status-->11110000 || <!--Data-->0iiiiiii [0iiiiiii 0iiiiiii] 0ddddddd --- --- 0ddddddd 11110111 || <!--Description-->System Exclusive. This message type allows manufacturers to create their own messages (such as bulk dumps, patch parameters, and other non-spec data) and provides a mechanism for creating additional MIDI Specification messages. The Manufacturer's ID code (assigned by MMA or AMEI) is either 1 byte (0iiiiiii) or 3 bytes (0iiiiiii 0iiiiiii 0iiiiiii). Two of the 1 Byte IDs are reserved for extensions called Universal Exclusive Messages, which are not manufacturer-specific.

While a key is being held down, the player can press harder on the key. The controller measures this, and converts it into MIDI messages. Aftertouch comes in two flavors, with two different status messages. The first flavor is polyphonic aftertouch, where every key on the controller is capable of sending its own independent pressure information. The messages are of the following format: <pre> 0xnc, 0xkk, 0xpp n is the status (0xA) c is the channel nybble kk is the key number (0 to 127) pp is the pressure value (0 to 127) </pre> Polyphonic aftertouch is an uncommon feature, usually found on premium quality instruments, because every key requires a separate pressure sensor, plus the circuitry to read them all. Much more commonly found is channel aftertouch. Instead of needing a discrete sensor per key, it uses a single, larger sensor to measure pressure on all of the keys as a group. The messages omit the key number, leaving a two-byte format <pre> 0xnc, 0xpp n is the status (0xD) c is the channel number pp is the pressure value (0 to 127) </pre> Pitch Bend (0xE0) Many keyboards have a wheel or lever towards the left of the keys for pitch bend control. This control is usually spring-loaded, so it snaps back to the center of its range when released. This allows for both upward and downward bends. Pitch Bend Wheel The wheel sends pitch bend messages, of the format <pre> 0xnc, 0xLL, 0xMM n is the status (0xE) c is the channel number LL is the 7 least-significant bits of the value MM is the 7 most-significant bits of the value </pre> You’ll notice that the bender data is actually 14 bits long, transmitted as two 7-bit data bytes. This means that the recipient needs to reassemble those bytes using binary manipulation. 14 bits results in an overall range of 214, or 0 to 16,383. Because it defaults to the center of the range, the default value for the bender is halfway through that range, at 8192 (0x2000). Control Change (0xB0) In addition to pitch bend, MIDI has provisions for a wider range of expressive controls, sometimes known as continuous controllers, often abbreviated CC. These are transmitted by the remaining knobs and sliders on the keyboard controller shown below. Continuous Controllers These controls send the following message format: <pre> 0xnc, 0xcc, 0xvv n is the status (0xB) c is the MIDI channel cc is the controller number (0-127) vv is the controller value (0-127) </pre> Typically, the wheel next to the bender sends controller number one, assigned to modulation (or vibrato) depth. It is implemented by most instruments. The remaining controller number assignments are another point of confusion. The MIDI specification was revised in version 2.0 to assign uses for many of the controllers. However, this implementation is not universal, and there are ranges of unassigned controllers. On many modern MIDI devices, the controllers are assignable. On the controller keyboard shown in the photos, the various controls can be configured to transmit different controller numbers. Controller numbers can be mapped to particular parameters. Virtual synthesizers frequently allow the user to assign CCs to the on-screen controls. This is very flexible, but it might require configuration on both ends of the link and completely bypasses the assignments in the standard. Program Change (0xC0) Most synthesizers have patch storage memory, and can be told to change patches using the following command: <pre> 0xnc, 0xpp n is the status (0xc) c is the channel pp is the patch number (0-127) </pre> This allows for 128 sounds to be selected, but modern instruments contain many more than 128 patches. Controller #0 is used as an additional layer of addressing, interpreted as a “bank select” command. Selecting a sound on such an instrument might involve two messages: a bank select controller message, then a program change. Audio & Midi are not synchronized, what I can do ? Buy a commercial software package but there is a nasty trick to synchronize both. It's a bit hardcore but works for me: Simply put one line down to all midi notes on your pattern (use Insert key) and go to 'Misc. Setup', adjust the latency and just search a value that will make sound sync both audio/midi. The stock Sin/Saw/Pulse and Rnd waveforms are too simple/common, is there a way to use something more complex/rich ? You have to ability to redirect the waveforms of the instruments through the synth pipe by selecting the "wav" option for the oscillator you're using for this synth instrument, samples can be used as wavetables to replace the stock signals. Sound banks like soundfont (sf2) or Kontakt2 are not supported at the moment ====DAW Audio Evolution 4==== Audio Evolution 4 gives you unsurpassed power for digital audio recording and editing on the Amiga. The latest release focusses on time-saving non-linear and non-destructive editing, as seen on other platforms. Besides editing, Audio Evolution 4 offers a wide range of realtime effects, including compression, noise gate, delays, reverb, chorus and 3-band EQ. Whether you put them as inserts on a channel or use them as auxillaries, the effect parameters are realtime adjustable and can be fully automated. Together with all other mixing parameters, they can even be controlled remotely, using more ergonomic MIDI hardware. Non-linear editing on the time line, including cut, copy, paste, move, split, trim and crossfade actions The number of tracks per project(s) is unlimited .... AHI limits you to recording only two at a time. i.e. not on 8 track sound cards like the Juli@ or Phase 88. sample file import is limited to 16bit AIFF (not AIFC, important distinction as some files from other sources can be AIFC with aiff file extention). and 16bit WAV (pcm only) Most apps use the Music Unit only but a few apps also use Unit (0-3) instead or as well. * Set up AHI prefs so that microphone is available. (Input option near the bottom) stereo++ allows the audio piece to be placed anywhere and the left-right adjusted to sound positionally right hifi best for music playback if driver supports this option Load 16bit .aif .aiff only sample(s) to use not AIFC which can have the same ending.

So no way to pass on an AC3 encoded stream unmodified to the digital outputs through AHI. *No master volume handling. Each application has to set its own volume. So each driver implements its own custom driver-mixer interface for handling master volumes, mute and preamps. *Only one output stream. So all input gets mixed into one output. *No automatic handling of output direction based on connected cables. *No monitor input selection. Only monitor volume control. select the correct input (Don't mistake enabled sound for the correct input.) The monitor will feedback audio to the lineout and hp out no matter if you have selected the correct input to the ADC. The monitor will provide sound for any valid input. This will result in free mixing when recording from the monitor input instead of mic/line because the monitor itself will provide the hardware mixing for you. Be aware that MIC inputs will give two channel mono. Only Linein will give real stereo. Now for the not working part. Attempt to record from linein in the AE4 record window, the right channel is noise and the left channel is distorted. Even with the recommended HIFI 16bit Stereo++ mode at 48kHz. Channels Monitor Gain Inout Output Advanced settings - Debugging via serial port * Options -> Soundcard In/Out * Options -> SampleRate * Options -> Preferences F6 for Sample File List Setting a grid is easy as is measuring the BPM by marking a section of the sample. Is your kick drum track "not in time" ? If so, you're stumped in AE4 as it has no fancy variable time signatures and definitely no 'track this dodgy rhythm' function like software of the nature of Logic has. So if your drum beat is freeform you will need to work in freeform mode. (Real music is free form anyway). If the drum *is* accurate and you are just having trouble measuring the time, I usually measure over a range of bars and set the number of beats in range to say 16 as this is more accurate, Then you will need to shift the drum track to match your grid *before* applying the grid. (probably an iterative process as when the grid is active samples snap to it, and when inactive you cannot see it). AE4 does have ARexx but the functions are more for adding samples at set offsets and starting playback / recording. These are the usual features found in DAWs... * Recording digital audio, midi sequencer and mixer * virtual VST instruments and plug-ins * automation, group channels, MIDI channels, FX sends and returns, audio and MIDI editors and music notation editor * different track views * mixer and track layout (but not the same as below) * traditional two windows (track and mixer) Mixing - mixdown Could not figure out how to select what part I wanted to send to the aux, set it to echo and return. Pretty much the whole echo effect. Or any effect. Take look at page17 of the manual. When you open the EQ / Aux send popup window you will see 4 sends. Now from the menu choose the windows menu. Menus->Windows-> Aux Returns Window or press F5 You will see a small window with 4 volume controls and an effects button for each. Click a button and add an effects to that aux channel, then set it up as desired (note the reverb effect has a special AUX setting that improves its use with the aux channel, not compulsory but highly useful). You set the amount of 'return' on the main mix in the Aux Return window, and the amount sent from each main mixer channel in the popup for that channel. Again the aux sends are "prefade" so the volume faders on each channel do not affect them. Tracking Effects - fade in To add some echoes to some vocals, tried to add an effect on a track but did not come out. This is made more complicated as I wanted to mute a vocal but then make it echo at the muting point. Want to have one word of a vocal heard and then echoed off. But when the track is mute the echo is cancelled out. To correctly understand what is happening here you need to study the figure at the bottom of page 15 on the manual. You will see from that that the effects are applied 'prefade' So the automation you applied will naturally mute the entire signal. There would be a number of ways to achieve the goal, You have three real time effects slots, one for smoothing like so Sample -> Amplify -> Delay Then automate the gain of the amplify block so that it effectively mutes the sample just before the delay at the appropriate moment, the echo effect should then be heard. Getting the effects in the right order will require experimentation as they can only be added top down and it's not obvious which order they are applied to the signal, but there only two possibilities, so it wont take long to find out. Using MUTE can cause clicks to the Amplify can be used to mute more smoothly so that's a secondary advantage.

Then drop-down menu and select Save As ("NewName".proj name), then drop-down menu to open parameter and select Save All ( .par name) After launching the software, there is a the Module Control Panel composed of five icons. It is a dock type shortcut of the first few functions of the drop-down menu *Database - Load (#?.proj), Append, Create, Edit, Save, Dir List (of WCSProject drawer), *Data Ops - Extract / Convert Interp DEM, Import DLG, DXF, WDB and export LW map 3d formats *Map View - Database file Loader leading to Map View Control with option to the Database Editor *Parameters - Editor for Motion, Color, Ecosystem, Clouds, Waves, management of altimeter files DEM, sclock settings etc *Render - rendering terrain These are more in the pull down menu but not in the dock *Motion Editor *Color Editor *Ecosys Editor Simple minimal workflow *Load database (1st icon - 1st) *Set parameters and save .par file (4th icon) *Render scene (5th icon) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbTwwR2qcc4 Youtube], [], <pre> .proj new project name which creates a drawer of additional files .binary array, ascii array .xyz , z buffer, DTED .dt0, vista 1990s dem, iff conversion .Obj with .elev, .frd with .hdr maps, - digital elevation model (DEM) is a 3D representation of elevation data in various formats USGS 7.5MinDEM, .par </pre> Since for the time being no project is loaded, a query window indicates a procedural error when clicking on the rendering icon (right end of the bar). The menu is quite traditional; it varies according to the activity of the windows. To display any altimetric file in the "Mapview" (third icon of the panel), There are three possibilities: * Loading of a demonstration project. * The import of a DEM file, followed by texturing and packaging from the "Database-Editor" and the "Color-Editor". * The creation of an altimetric file in WCS format, then texturing. The altimeter file editing (display in the menu) is only made possible if the "Mapview" window is active. The software is made up of many windows and won't be able to describe them all. Know that "Color-Editor" and the "Data-Editor" comprise sufficient functions for obtaining an almost real rendering quality. You have the possibility of inserting vector objects in the "Data-Editor" (creation of roads, railways, etc.) The Map View (MapView) window *Database - Objects and Topos *View - Align, Center, Zoom, Pan, Move *Draw - Maps and distance *Object - Find, highlight, add points, conform topo, duplicate *Motion - Camera, Focus, path, elevation *Windows - DEM designer, Cloud (.cld) and wave (.wve) editor, You will notice that by selecting this window and simply moving the pointer to various points on the map you will see latitude and longitude values ​​change, along with the height. Drop-down menu and Modules, then select MapView and change the width of the window with the map to arrange it in the best way on the screen. With the Auto button the center. Window that then displays the contents of my DEM file, in this case the Grand Canyon. MapView allows you to observe the shape of the landscape from above ZOOM button Press the Zoom button and then with the pointer position on a point on the map, press the left mouse button and then move to the opposite corner to circumscribe the chosen area and press the left mouse button again, then we will see the enlarged area selected on the map. Would add that there is a box next to the Zoom button that allows the direct insertion of a value which, the larger it is, the smaller the magnification and the smaller the value, the stronger the magnification. At each numerical change you will need to press the DRAW button to update the view. PAN button Under Zoom you will find the PAN button which allows you to move the map at will in all directions by the amount you want. This is done by drawing a line in one direction, then press PAN and point to an area on the map with the pointer and press the left mouse button. At this point, leave it and move the pointer in one direction by drawing a line and press the left mouse button again to trigger the movement of the map on the screen (origin and end points). Do some experiments and then use the Auto button immediately below to recenter everything. There are parameters such as TOPO, VEC to be left checked and immediately below one that allows different views of the map with the Style command (Single, Multi, Surface, Emboss, Slope, Contour), each with its own particularities to highlight different details. Now you have the first basics to manage your project visually on the map. Close the MapView window and go further... Let's start working on ECOSYSTEMS If we select Emboss from the MapView Style command we will have a clear idea of ​​how the landscape appears, realizing that it is a predominantly desert region of our planet. Therefore we will begin to act on any vegetation present and the appearance of the landscape. With WCS we will begin to break down the elements of the landscape by assigning defined characteristics. It will be necessary to determine the classes of the ecosystem (Class) with parameters of Elevation Line (maximum altitude), Relative Elevation (arrangement on basins or convexities with respectively positive or negative parameters), Min Slope and Max Slope (slope). WCS offers the possibility of making ecosystems coexist on the same terrain with the UnderEco function, by setting a Density value. Ecosys Ecosystem Editor Let's open it from Modules, then Ecosys Editor. In the left pane you will find the list of ecosystems referring to the files present in our project. It will be necessary to clean up that box to leave only the Water and Snow landscapes and a few other predefined ones. We can do this by selecting the items and pressing the Remove button (be careful not for all elements the button is activated, therefore they cannot all be eliminated). Once this is done we can start adding new ecosystems. Scroll through the various Unused and as soon as the Name item at the top is activated allowing you to write, type the name of your ecosystem, adding the necessary parameters. <pre> Ecosystem1: Name: RockBase Class: Rock Density: 80 MinSlope: 15 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosystem2: Name: RockIncl Clss: Rock Density: 80 MinSlope: 30 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosystem3: Name: Grass Class Low Veg Density: 50 Height: 1 Elev Line : 1500 Rel El Eff: 5 Max Slope: 10 – Min Slope: 0 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosistema4: Name: Shrubs Class: Low Veg Density: 40 Height: 8 Elev Line: 3000 Rel El Eff: -2 Max Slope: 20 Min Slope : 5 UnderEco: Terrain Ecosistema5: Name: Terrain Class: Ground Density: 100 UnderEco: Terrain </pre> Now we need to identify an intermediate ecosystem that guarantees a smooth transition between all, therefore we select as Understory Ecosystem the one called Terrain in all ecosystems, except Snow and Water . Now we need to 'emerge' the Colorado River in the Canyon and we can do this by raising the sea level to 900 (Sea Level) in the Ecosystem called Water. Please note that the order of the ecosystem list gives priority to those that come after. So our list must have the following order: Water, Snow, Shrubs, RockIncl, RockBase, Terrain. It is possible to carry out all movements with the Swap button at the bottom. To put order you can also press Short List. Press Keep to confirm all the work done so far with Ecosystem Editor. Remember every now and then to save both the Project 'Modules/Save' and 'Parameter/Save All' EcoModels are made up of .etp .fgp .iff8 for each model Color Editor Now it's time to define the colors of our scene and we can do this by going to Modules and then Color Editor. In the list we focus on our ecosystems, created first. Let's go to the bottom of the list and select the first white space, assigning the name 'empty1', with a color we like and then we will find this element again in other environments... It could serve as an example for other situations! So we move to 'grass' which already exists and assign the following colors: R 60 G 70 B50 <pre> 'shrubs': R 60 G 80 B 30 'RockIncl' R 110 G 65 B 60 'RockBase' R 110 G 80 B 80 ' Terrain' R 150 G 30 B 30 <pre> Now we can work on pre-existing colors <pre> 'SunLight' R 150 G 130 B 130 'Haze and Fog' R 190 G 170 B 170 'Horizon' R 209 G 185 B 190 'Zenith' R 140 G 150 B 200 'Water' R 90 G 125 B 170 </pre> Ambient R 0 G 0 B 0 So don't forget to close Color Editor by pressing Keep. Go once again to Ecosystem Editor and assign the corresponding color to each environment by selecting it using the Ecosystem Color button. Press it several times until the correct one appears. Then save the project and parameters again, as done previously. Motion Editor Now it's time to take care of the framing, so let's go to Modules and then to Motion Editor. An extremely feature-rich window will open. Following is the list of parameters regarding the Camera, position and other characteristics: <pre> -Camera Altitude: 7.0 -Camera Latitude: 36.075 -Camera Longitude: 112.133 -Focus Attitude: -2.0 -Focus Latitude: 36.275 -Focus Longitude: 112.386 -Camera : 512 → rendering window -Camera Y: 384 → rendering window -View Arc: 80 → View width in degrees -Sun Longitude: 172 -Sun Latitude: -0.9 -Haze Start: 3.8 -Haze Range: 78, 5 </pre> As soon as the values ​​shown in the relevant sliders have been modified, we will be ready to open the CamView window to observe the wireframe preview. Let's not consider all the controls that will appear. Well from the Motion Editor if you have selected Camera Altitude and open the CamView panel, you can change the height of the camera by holding down the right mouse button and moving the mouse up and down. To update the view, press the Terrain button in the adjacent window. As soon as you are convinced of the position, confirm again with Keep. You can carry out the same work with the other functions of the camera, such as Focus Altitude... Let's now see the next positioning step on the Camera map, but let's leave the CamView preview window open while we go to Modules to open the window at the same time MapView. We will thus be able to take advantage of the view from the other together with a subjective one. From the MapView window, select with the left mouse button and while it is pressed, move the Camera as desired. To update the subjective preview, always click on Terrain. While with the same procedure you can intervene on the direction of the camera lens, by selecting the cross and with the left button pressed you can choose the desired view. So with the pressure of Terrain I update the Preview. Possibly can enlarge or reduce the Map View using the Zoom button, for greater precision. Also write that the circle around the cameras indicates the beginning of the haze, there are two types (haze and fog) linked to the altitude. Would also add that the camera height is editable through the Motion Editor panel. The sun Let's see that changing the position of the sun from the Motion Editor. Press the SUN button at the bottom right and set the time and the date. Longitude and latitude are automatically obtained by the program. Always open the View Arc command from the Motion Editor panel, an item present in the Parameter List box. Once again confirm everything with Keep and then save again. Animation The animation part is not left-back and also occupies a window. The settings possibilities are enormous. A time line with dragging functions ("slide", "drag"...) comparable to that of LightWave completes this window. A small window is available for positioning the stars as a function of a date, in order to vary the seasons and their various events (and yes...). At the bottom of the "Motion-Editor", a "cam-view" function will give you access to a control panel. Different preview modes are possible. The rendering is also accessible through a window. No less than nine pages compose it. At this level, you will be able to determine the backup name of your images ("path"), the type of texture to be calculated, the resolution of the images, activate or deactivate functions such as the depth buffer ("zbuffer"), the blur, the background image, etc. Once all these parameters have been set, all you have to do is click on the "Render" button. For rendering go to Modules and then Render. Select the resolution, then under IMA select the name of the image. Move to FRA and indicate the level of fractal detail which of 4 is quite good. Then Keep to confirm and then reopen the window, pressing Render you will see the result. The image will be opened with any viewing program. Strengths: * Multi-window. * Quality of rendering. * Accuracy. * Opening, preview and rendering on CyberGraphX screen. * Extract / Convert Interp DEM, Import DLG, DXF, WDB and export LW map 3d formats * The "zbuffer" function. Weaknesses: * No OpenGL management * Calculation time. * No network computing tool. ====Writing CD / DVD - Frying Pan==== Can be backup DVDs (4GB ISO size limit due to use of FileInfoBlock), create audio cds from mp3's, and put .iso files on discs If using for the first time - click Drive button and Device set to ata.device and unit to 0 (zero) Click Tracks Button - Drive 1 - Create New Disc or Import Existing Disc Image (iso bin/cue etc.) - Session File open cue file If you're making a data cd, with files and drawers from your hard drive, you should be using the ISO Builder.. which is the MUI page on the left. ("Data/Audio Tracks" is on the right). You should use the "Data/Audio tracks" page if you want to create music cds with AIFF/WAV/MP3 files, or if you download an .iso file, and you want to put it on a cd. Click WRITE Button - set write speed - click on long Write button Examples Easiest way would be to burn a DATA CD, simply go to "Tracks" page "ISO Builder" and "ADD" everything you need to burn. On the "Write" page i have "Masterize Disc (DAO)", "Close Disc" and "Eject after Write" set. One must not "Blank disc before write" if one uses a CDR AUDIO CD from MP3's are as easy but tricky to deal with. FP only understands one MP3 format, Layer II, everything else will just create empty tracks Burning bootable CD's works only with .iso files. Go to "Tracks" page and "Data/Audio Tracks" and add the .iso ====odf==== Every ODF file is a collection of several subdocuments within a package (ZIP file), each of which stores part of the complete document. * content.xml – Document content and automatic styles used in the content. * styles.xml – Styles used in the document content and automatic styles used in the styles themselves. * meta.xml – Document meta information, such as the author or the time of the last save action. * settings.xml – Application-specific settings, such as the window size or printer information. To read document follow these steps: * Extracting .ods file. * Getting content.xml file (which contains sheets data). * Creating XmlDocument object from content.xml file. * Creating DataSet (that represent Spreadsheet file). * With XmlDocument select “table:table” elements, and then create adequate DataTables. * Parse child’s of “table:table” element and fill DataTables with those data. * At the end, return DataSet and show it in application’s interface. To write document follow these steps: * Extracting template.ods file (.ods file that we use as template). * Getting content.xml file. * Creating XmlDocument object from content.xml file. * Erasing all “table:table” elements from the content.xml file. * Reading data from our DataSet and composing adequate “table:table” elements. * Adding “table:table” elements to content.xml file. * Zipping that file as new .ods file. XLS file format The XLS file format contains streams, substreams, and records. These sheet substreams include worksheets, macro sheets, chart sheets, dialog sheets, and VBA module sheets. All the records in an XLS document start with a 2-byte unsigned integer to specify Record Type (rt), and another for Count of Bytes (cb). A record cannot exceed 8224 bytes. If larger than the rest is stored in one or more continue records. * Workbook stream **Globals substream ***BoundSheet8 record - info for Worksheet substream i.e. name, location, type, and visibility. (4bytes the lbPlyPos FilePointer, specifies the position in the Workbook stream where the sheet substream starts) **Worksheet substream (sheet) - Cell Table - Row record - Cells (2byte=row 2byte=column 2byte=XF format) ***Blank cell record ***RK cell record 32-bit number. ***BoolErr cell record (2-byte Bes structure that may be either a Boolean value or an error code) ***Number cell record (64-bit floating-point number) ***LabelSst cell record (4-byte integer that specifies a string in the Shared Strings Table (SST). Specifically, the integer corresponds to the array index in the RGB field of the SST) ***Formula cell record (FormulaValue structure in the 8 bytes that follow the cell structure. The next 6 bytes can be ignored, and the rest of the record is a CellParsedFormula structure that contains the formula itself) ***MulBlank record (first 2 bytes give the row, and the next 2 bytes give the column that the series of blanks starts at. Next, a variable length array of cell structures follows to store formatting information, and the last 2 bytes show what column the series of blanks ends on) ***MulRK record ***Shared String Table (SST) contains all of the string values in the workbook.

After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

experimental basis to frank live mail. After years of further experimentation and development postage meters were finally approved for use by the general public in 1920. Experimentation continued long after this date as the machines continued to be improved and perfected. All this activity and fermentation makes the U.S. one of the most interesting and complex countries to collect for postage meter stamps. * This online edition of ''The United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog'' is an expansion and update of the paper edition, written and published by Joel Hawkins and Rick Stambaugh in 1994 and updated previously in 2001. It uses a new, more logical, decimal system for assigning Type numbers. Type numbers that are different from the earlier edition show the previous designation as follows: <span style="font-size:x-small; color:blue;">''Type '''XXX''' in 2001 edition''</span> *<div style="color: red;"> Comments, suggested changes, corrections, and additions to the catalog are encouraged.

only on the date generated. PC stamps with unrestricted validity, i.e. savable for future use, are more like traditional stamps than meter stamps and thus are not cataloged here. PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} n2k9mwlq8cr5fgu8iqm9s2tgfz3n6lh 4653329 4653326 2026-07-08T16:11:55Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653329 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} nsq5faa9ul92tmettxqp8n7ac7nzb3v 4653330 4653329 2026-07-08T16:13:52Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653330 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} phzz3x4aosh7x2q6ykjk3eylegz03rl 4653331 4653330 2026-07-08T16:15:02Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653331 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} c9v58l5ddrzhkymgw1mnyo5vqq8a0bo 4653333 4653331 2026-07-08T16:22:54Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|Sub-group PC-C: Franks generated by software from Stamps.com (StampMaster before 1999), ID numbers with 06#S prefix}} */ 4653333 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} pk5wvtp5omckrbq9m9tzbswyarcit30 4653334 4653333 2026-07-08T16:27:03Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653334 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated. PC stamps with unrestricted validity, i.e. savable for future use, are more like traditional stamps than meter stamps and thus are not cataloged here. PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} 2c61xhvixylmivv9vuzodjra3yhw0wj 4653336 4653334 2026-07-08T16:32:48Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653336 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} 9ire902gi74nbn4s30vmzj1rdxa7bfp 4653337 4653336 2026-07-08T16:54:51Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653337 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} bqp895nhaim6e6arjy6cql7gcgdvw72 4653339 4653337 2026-07-08T16:59:31Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653339 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} 4hr21ytrtwm81l22gkxr6pq52xxh4bo 4653341 4653339 2026-07-08T17:15:50Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653341 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated. PC stamps with unrestricted validity, i.e. savable for future use, are more like traditional stamps than meter stamps and thus are not cataloged here. PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels.

Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} 8b4ifp4ufsi79xqy738i5jmuv5bnbn2 4653343 4653342 2026-07-08T17:19:17Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653343 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} g3ojcmu1qbp9ixkp6uyan9dznm483ba 4653345 4653343 2026-07-08T17:28:57Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|Sub-group PC-C: Franks generated by software from Stamps.com (StampMaster before 1999), ID numbers with 06#S prefix}} */ 4653345 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated. PC stamps with unrestricted validity, i.e. savable for future use, are more like traditional stamps than meter stamps and thus are not cataloged here. PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide).

Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

An exception is Type PC-E2.2, Sub-type A, which does not show an identification number. * When first released (February 2001) the system was labeled by Indicia as "'''DAZzle 2000'''". * On November 18, 2015 Stamps.com (see Sub-group PC-C) acquired Endicia. In 2024, Stamps.com and Endicia were once again seperate, being individual divisions under a holding company. {{font/end}} {{font|size=3|color=red|'''''NOTE''': <br>Several stamps in Group Q resemble stamps in Group PC.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} ofeu9bilnjpjzuymb2z0i8e3pcdfqyb 4653348 4653347 2026-07-08T17:46:59Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653348 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp.

PC stamps with unrestricted validity, i.e. savable for future use, are more like traditional stamps than meter stamps and thus are not cataloged here. PC stamps with unrestricted validity are cataloged in '''<i>USA: Variable Denomination Stamps (1989-2020)</i>''' by Karim Roder (available on Amazon).'' * Group PC stamps can vary considerably in size, font styles, and color within the same stamp type depending on personal printer settings, available fonts, etc. Size variations or colors other than black are unusual but are user controlled variables (an attempt will be made to note said varieties in the usage lists). * The stamps are found on plain paper and adhesive labels depending on what the user has in his printer. Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media). Not all the codes are found with all the stamp types that use the labels. * 2-Dimensional barcodes occur in two major types and several subtypes: ::::: PDF417 A horizontally stacked 2-dimensional barcode, each consists of 2 punctuators, 2 indicators and a variable number of data blocks. :::::: subvariety PDF417(4) has 4 datablocks [[File: PDF417-224.png|right|250px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(6) has 6 datablocks [[File: PDF417-226.png|right|275px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(7) has 7 datablocks [[File: PDF417-227.png|right|300px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(8) has 8 datablocks [[File: PDF417-228.png|right|350px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(9) has 9 datablocks [[File: PDF417-229.png|right|375px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(12) has 12 datablocks [[File: PDF417-2212.png|right|400px]] ::::: Data matrix is a 2 dimensional barcode consisting of square or rectangular data blocks :::::: subvariety DM-2H ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged horizontally [[File: DM-2HZ.png|right|100px]] :::::: subvariety DM-2V ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged vertically [[File: DM-2VR.png|right|50px]] :::::: subvariety DM-4 has 4 datablocks arranged as a square [[File: DM-4SQ.png|right|100px]] * PC stamps on labels the sizes of which are recommended by the '''USPS''', the sizes are 4 inches by 6 inches ('''FS''') in two subvarieties, 4 inches by 4 inches ('''FF'''), 6 inches by 2 inches ('''ST'''), and a form for customs declaration included.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} czxbekjnn07wfpo5by2rrq7sult1q49 4653350 4653349 2026-07-08T18:09:18Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653350 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} a8qis4goryojbrq448t63j5deytul9j 4653354 4653350 2026-07-08T19:52:27Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|1=Sub-group PC-I: Franks generated by stamps/endicia}} */ 4653354 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media). Not all the codes are found with all the stamp types that use the labels. * 2-Dimensional barcodes occur in two major types and several subtypes: ::::: PDF417 A horizontally stacked 2-dimensional barcode, each consists of 2 punctuators, 2 indicators and a variable number of data blocks. :::::: subvariety PDF417(4) has 4 datablocks [[File: PDF417-224.png|right|250px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(6) has 6 datablocks [[File: PDF417-226.png|right|275px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(7) has 7 datablocks [[File: PDF417-227.png|right|300px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(8) has 8 datablocks [[File: PDF417-228.png|right|350px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(9) has 9 datablocks [[File: PDF417-229.png|right|375px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(12) has 12 datablocks [[File: PDF417-2212.png|right|400px]] ::::: Data matrix is a 2 dimensional barcode consisting of square or rectangular data blocks :::::: subvariety DM-2H ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged horizontally [[File: DM-2HZ.png|right|100px]] :::::: subvariety DM-2V ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged vertically [[File: DM-2VR.png|right|50px]] :::::: subvariety DM-4 has 4 datablocks arranged as a square [[File: DM-4SQ.png|right|100px]] * PC stamps on labels the sizes of which are recommended by the '''USPS''', the sizes are 4 inches by 6 inches ('''FS''') in two subvarieties, 4 inches by 4 inches ('''FF'''), 6 inches by 2 inches ('''ST'''), and a form for customs declaration included.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature.

The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} 1t91wrvup4s7wlncifv07egsa8ikt8c 4653357 4653354 2026-07-08T20:00:42Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|Sub-group PC-C: Franks generated by software from Stamps.com (StampMaster before 1999), ID numbers with 06#S prefix}} */ 4653357 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} g9rvn9o3z7mfkj9ugaf7ticf21t7s79 4653359 4653357 2026-07-08T21:29:50Z Boris1951zz 3378369 /* {{font|size=4|color=#2a3439|Sub-group PC-C: Franks generated by software from Stamps.com (StampMaster before 1999), ID numbers with 06#S prefix}} */ 4653359 wikitext text/x-wiki ==<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #1F75FE;">'''GROUP PC: Special designs generated by personal computer'''</span></span>== [[United_States_Postage_Meter_Stamp_Catalog |<span style="font-size: small;">''<u>Click here to return to the United States Postage Meter Stamp Catalog</u>''</span>]] {{font/top|size=3|color=#08457E}} '''NOTE''': ''All the stamps listed here are valid only on the date generated.

As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media). Not all the codes are found with all the stamp types that use the labels. * 2-Dimensional barcodes occur in two major types and several subtypes: ::::: PDF417 A horizontally stacked 2-dimensional barcode, each consists of 2 punctuators, 2 indicators and a variable number of data blocks. :::::: subvariety PDF417(4) has 4 datablocks [[File: PDF417-224.png|right|250px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(6) has 6 datablocks [[File: PDF417-226.png|right|275px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(7) has 7 datablocks [[File: PDF417-227.png|right|300px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(8) has 8 datablocks [[File: PDF417-228.png|right|350px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(9) has 9 datablocks [[File: PDF417-229.png|right|375px]] :::::: subvariety PDF417(12) has 12 datablocks [[File: PDF417-2212.png|right|400px]] ::::: Data matrix is a 2 dimensional barcode consisting of square or rectangular data blocks :::::: subvariety DM-2H ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged horizontally [[File: DM-2HZ.png|right|100px]] :::::: subvariety DM-2V ("'''IBI-Lite'''") has 2 datablocks arranged vertically [[File: DM-2VR.png|right|50px]] :::::: subvariety DM-4 has 4 datablocks arranged as a square [[File: DM-4SQ.png|right|100px]] * PC stamps on labels the sizes of which are recommended by the '''USPS''', the sizes are 4 inches by 6 inches ('''FS''') in two subvarieties, 4 inches by 4 inches ('''FF'''), 6 inches by 2 inches ('''ST'''), and a form for customs declaration included.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging.

It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail. Codes found are: "'''1'''" (first class), "'''fcm'''" (first class), "'''P'''" (priority), "'''E'''" (express), "'''M'''" (media), "'''T'''" (parcel post), solid block (media, or other), "'''H'''" (Hazardous), "'''G'''" (Ground Advantage), "'''X'''" (Media).

Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage.

Self-adhesive labels are sold by the various PC stamp companies and also by outside vendors. These labels exist both with and without fluorescent tagging. As with color and font, paper or label type is a user controlled variable, however to a great extent the parameters are set by United States Postal Service ( see: https://postalpro.usps.com/parcellabelingguide). It is recommended that the collector save the '''entire label'''. * PC stamps are often found in a frame at the top right of large address labels. To the left of the stamp is a smaller frame containing a large letter or number representing the class of mail.

They are used by online commerce companies with business volumes large enough to justify special arrangements with shippers such as USPS, FedX, and UPS. * E-Postage is a program developed by USPS to accommodate the growth of ecommerce. Online merchants such as Amazon and Etsy use ePostage. In 2016 new company Shippo began operation as a shipping aggregator offering ePostage to any business. * The stamps appear to be more like "post paid" permit stamps rather than metered mail but are shown here until we determine their exact nature. [[File: USA stamp type PC-F2.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F14.jpg|right|500px]] [[File: USA stamp type PC-F1bb.jpeg|right|300px]] * The stamps are found only on address labels with the top section having an enclosed mail-service letter at left and a frank box at right above a panel containing the mail class. : The central section contains the return address, date, and addressee. : The stamps show no value figures or identification number. : The labels do include a tracking bar code and number. : So far they have been found in two general formats: :: '''-''' With single-line border surrounding the complete design, printed on label 135 mm tall :: '''-''' With no outer border, printed on smaller label, 115 mm tall * Known variations: :: '''-''' Mail class appears in the frank box :: '''-''' Incomplete box around mail-service letter at upper left :: '''-''' Mailer's name repeated at top outside the frank box :: '''-''' "ComBasPrice" appearing left of the frank box '''NOTES''': * Merchants have some control over the appearance of the stamp. The e-Postage designation is found in different fonts. The frank box is found in a variety of sizes with contents left justified or centered. * When inaugurated in September 2011 only certain mail services were available through e-Postage system: Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail parcels, Package Services (except Library Mail), and Parcel Select bar-coded non-presort. * What is common to all e-Postage stamps is that the frank box contains e-Postage (or variant), U.S. POSTAGE PAID (or variant), and the mailer's identification. {{font/end}} ----{{BookCat}} sspc2nisn8zq5mik7oobj5bjvjliwk0 0 409751 4653365 4642166 2026-07-08T22:14:48Z ~2026-38676-31 3612898 /* */ yindecrony 4653365 wikitext text/x-wiki [[File:Racing car with spoiler.jpg|300px|center|Racing car model]] {{Book title|{{BOOKNAME}}}}/* * Heavy-Duty L-Bracket <nowiki/>* Matches the exact specifications from the CAD Assessment Workflow Script. <nowiki/>* Units: Millimeters (mm) <nowiki/>*/ $fn = 50; // Smoothness for high-quality curves/fillets module l_bracket() {     difference() {         // --- PHASE 1, 2, 3 & 5: MAIN BODY (ADDITIVE FEATURES) ---         union() {                         // 1.

Thank you! [[User:BigKrow|BigKrow]] ([[User talk:BigKrow|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/BigKrow|contribs]]) 22:30, 1 May 2026 (UTC) :Thanks for asking. You have a similar thread at our sister project Wikiversity and I am the equivalent of an admin there (we have a "curators" and "custodians" that are similar to admins on other projects). I'm not an admin here, but speaking as someone who has generally contributed here, writing news articles would not be appropriate. It would be great to write a textbook on [[journalism]]: we could use a great guide for ethics, finding sources, asking questions, objectivity and neutrality, etc. Unlike on Wikiversity, where the learning materials can be virtually anything, this project is specifically for a textbook/guide/manual, so writing news articles and posting them here is not really appropriate, but you could have a few example articles that you write for the purpose of having a textbook. —[[User:Koavf|Justin (<span style="color:grey">ko'''a'''vf</span>)]]<span style="color:red">❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯</span> 23:46, 1 May 2026 (UTC) :: Heads up, a wiki was created: <span class="plainlinks">[https://news.wikioasis.org/wiki/Main_Page news.wikioasis.org]</span>. @[[User:Koavf|Koavf]]; I was temporarily granted some user rights to manage the wiki's setup and migration.

Humankind has recorded evidence through writings, archaelogical digs, of what would now be considered ''"psychotic behavior",'' since the dawn of recorded history and tools. Most symptoms of what we know today as '''psychosis''' were, until the mid-late 19th century CE, usually interpreted by proto-society as either evidence of some kind of '''spiritual illness''' or usually '''demon-possessed''' - even as it is clear that the vast majority of non-chronic cases are ''episodic'' in nature. The unfortunate individuals unable to successfully evade such labels were often '''outcast''' from society, made to conform to '''strict religious teachings''' or outright killed '''altogether.''' In its intellectual pause and Reconstructive peace that categorically defined the tense, last-few decades of the 19th Century as overly Puritan; and, as the First Industrial Age's sweeping, climatic throes of growth and societal change waned slowly enough that it became possible to quantify and organize advancements and what was to be considered newfound historical trend - the form of Western psychiatry and dialectics that is ''infamous'' today for it's general lack of efficacy and perverse incentive structure began to slowly take shape. In short, '''Anti-Psychotics''' are a certain, special type of psychiatric medication (usually found to end with the suffix ''-zine'' ), that are commonly prescribed to patients experiencing short to long-term '''psychosis''' or who have reported '''psychotic symptoms''' in the recent past. qu7pl83vau7ne6kcmfvolnaylr00c3o 3 484584 4653367 2026-07-08T22:22:07Z MathXplore 3097823 Notifying author of speedy deletion nomination 4653367 wikitext text/x-wiki == I have added a tag to a page you created == Hi!
