00:45.58 starseeker decides to see what the latest wand scanner is capable of...
01:18.27 ``Erik ´ack, tmi
02:12.58 starseeker ``Erik: huh? http://www.amazon.com/VuPoint-Solutions-Portable-Scanner-PDS-ST410-VP/dp/B002R0BFAA
02:13.26 starseeker hopefully it can scan pieces of larger documents in such a way that the pieces can be stitched back together
02:15.19 starseeker e.g. http://hugin.sourceforge.net/tutorials/scans/en.shtml
03:41.07 ``Erik amazing how much my handwriting improves on tax forms

13:07.36 starseeker ``Erik: pfft, handwriting. Okular has apparently added support for filling in (and saving!) pdf forms
13:08.10 starseeker can't handle them all yet, and insists on trying to print A4 size, but none the less hat's off to the Okular devs
14:05.25 ``Erik pdf2ps and edit the code? :D
14:05.38 starseeker O.o ew
14:06.41 ``Erik what's wrong with that? :D
14:06.46 ``Erik if you want, I can loan ya a ps book
14:07.56 ``Erik heh, back on "that other project", I exported their word document into pdf, converted it to ps, then did some magic to print a huge grey 'DRAFT' diagonally up each page... that was neat (and much less painful than using word)
14:17.18 starseeker must concede that it would be less painful than word...

19:02.37 CIA-43 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r38117 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libgcv/obj/ (obj_grammar.y obj_parser.h): More tweakage in obj
19:34.36 CIA-43 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r38118 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libgcv/obj/ (obj_grammar.y obj_parser.h): Hrm. Defining obj_group_t as the type of YYSTYPE seems to cause problems - 'no type or storage class'
19:52.12 brlcad if that's true, then the header with your "typedef struct obj_data" is probably not being included before YYSTYPE is referenced
19:52.54 brlcad could be missing header inclusion or the typedef isn't declared early enough
19:54.38 starseeker no, it was in there before - obj_parser.h, which is defined before obj_grammar.h is included
19:54.48 starseeker probably something stupid...
19:56.24 brlcad it wasn't if it's saying "no type or storage class"
19:56.26 brlcad by definition :)
19:56.42 brlcad at least in the resulting c file
19:56.54 starseeker nods
19:57.02 starseeker let me set up again...
19:57.24 brlcad remember that it gets generated with boiler plate code before and after, yet will say "ERROR: obj_grammar.y: line 32 .. blah blah"
19:57.57 brlcad the error can be caused by the inserted code, not the .y file
20:01.46 starseeker oh, duh
20:02.20 starseeker the generated grammar.h file doesn't include parser.h, so rules.l isn't aware of squat
20:05.28 CIA-43 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r38119 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libgcv/obj/ (obj_grammar.y obj_parser.h obj_rules.l): Oh, yeah - rules.l will need to know about parser.h if it knows about grammar.h, once grammar.h is using a datastructure from parser.h.
20:05.41 starseeker feels strangely like he's in "Knitting 101" with piles of thread snarled everywhere...
20:07.25 brlcad you would have probably hit that lil bit pretty early on if you went/go through a parser tutorial from the beginning
20:07.58 brlcad maybe, still maybe not .. that particular inclusion issue could have happened any time
