eyeOS in Hindi
In eyeOS 2.0 its translations in different languages will also be available. I also have deployed it in our college. I made eyeOS avialable in our college serevr during my training. And after my training I got an email from Mr. Jordi Collel (Team Leader for Translation of eyeOS). So I came in the contact with the ey
eOS developers and translated all the eyeOS in Hindi. But this translation will be available in is next release. I alone did all the translation for it in Hindi Language. I also suggest my closest friend Parveen to translate it to Punjabi. He did a great job.
Here is the link to use eyeOS at college dummy server. http://202.164.53.116/eyeos/
Just Create a new user here and use it.
and to the translation http://translate.eyeos.org/.See the following image showing the translation done by me that will be available soon to everyone.
This is the task done by me. You can clearly see the contents being displayed.d in Hindi language. So soon you will be also able to view eyeOS in Hindi. It was quite atedious job but yaa interseting too.



Certificate from eyeOS Developers
I also got the Certificate from the Developers of eyeOS from Barcelona(Spain) for doing this translation ion Punjabi and for taking part in opensource Project.Give a Look at my Certificate shown Below.

Barnala Map Ready At Open Street Map

I am feeling very happy to announce that Map of MY Home Town is finally ready (with just few detailing left) after two months. Indeed I took a quite much time but yet I was single person to map the whole districts with one of my student Sukhakashdeep Singh (+1 Inter arts) resident of Barnala too. He helped me a lot while collecting the GPS Data. Before I was doing my project when I made to see my Barnala Map by my mentor Dr. H.S. Rai, I was just shocked to see, not even boundary of city has been drawn earlier by anybody. From that very I decided that I will myself complete this map alone whether one should interested or not to help me. And Finally I got the result. You can clearly See What my Home town was earlier and What it is at present.

MY Home Town Before Mapping Done by me
My Home town After Mapping Done by me :)

So you can clearly see what a lot has been changed in Barnala Map at osm.org. Even the name of city was not displaying earlier. All thanx to my mentor Dr. H.S. Rai who gave me full support and also couraged me time to time. He provided me VGPS (for taking GPS data). And yes also to my Dad, he also supported me a lot. He covered the boundary with me in Car. Yet I am working on streets and all minor details along with some error correction if found. You can also take a look at iframe of my home town as shown below:

Installing GIMP Scripts

First you have to decide if you are going to make this script available for all users as a Global script or just a single user as a local script. If you don't have access to create files in the Global location then you can only install them as a local script.

Microsoft Windows and Linux use different file system structures so they require you to save the files in completely different locations. The default file locations are as follows:

Windows


  • User: Download the file to C:\Documents and settings\\.gimp-2.2\scripts
  • Global: Download the file to C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\scripts
Linux

  • User:Download the file to ~/.gimp-2.2/scripts
  • Global:Download the file to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts

Where did the script go?

Often you have just installed the script and now you can't find it. There are several reasons for this and I will explain how to find the new script.

First, when GIMP starts it reads both the Global and user script locations. So if you have added the script while The GIMP was running you will not see it, yet. One solution is to close GIMP and re-open it allowing it to read and add the new script. Another is to manually tell GIMP to read the script locations while it is still running. To do this just go / Xtns / Script-Fu / Refresh scripts

Ok, GIMP has read the script where do I find it?

GIMP scripts can be placed by the author anywhere they want. The two main locations are in the main GIMP window or in the menus in the Image window.

As a general rule scripts that alter the image are placed on the image menus and ones that create a new image from scratch are placed in the menus on the main GIMP window.
