Reverse Engineering the Samsung ML-2010 laser printer [software/01134173186]
Ingrid recently bought a Samsung ML-2010 laser printer. The price was
attractive, and it seems to be a good printer. However, there is either the
choice of a an open-source driver for a different printer model, one which
doesn't support the 1200x600DPI mode, or a closed-source driver which comes on
the included CDROM.
I'm going to try to reverse engineer the new format, which is called "SPL II"
in the GUI and "QPDL" in the generated file (@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = QPDL).
My approach is to print a postscript file using the binary driver, saving the
result to a local file. At no time do I plan to disassemble the binary
software provided by Samsung.

Parallel-port Two-axis PWM servo controller for Etch CNC [projects/01142347802]

with a parallel port interface.
Onscreen Crosshairs in tcl/tk [software/01146347893]
I was staring too long at a screenshot of a graph on some web page, wishing I
could tell if two things lined up. Well, inspiration struck, and this program
was born. Two windows—one that is one pixel wide, and another
that is one pixel tall—are created, and they follow the mouse
around every 1/10 second or so. They're displaced by one pixel so that clicking will hit the underlying window, not the crosshair.
I apologize for the changing colors, since xor isn't available with this simple
method of drawing the lines, it's the only way to be sure to get contrast. I considered making the color depend on e.g., whether SHIFT is pressed, but if Tk provides this information to a window that doesn't have focus, I overlooked it in the manpages.

There are a lot of questions about the pluto-p that are left
unanswered by the website and the "getting started" document to which you're
given a link to after you order. I've tried to answer them for myself,
and now I'm sharing those answers with my readers. The most important thing
I report here is the ACEX pin numbers for the JTAG connector.
Pluto_servo progress: It's running cradek's lathe! [01165199941]
Note, 6/2014: I do not recommend choosing pluto hardware for any new projects.
Chris is "successfully" running his lathe with a firmware. I used the
scare quotes because there have been a few problems, not all of which have been
resolved. But he reports that he was able to get better tuning, quieter moves,
and of course higher resolution without the /16 quadrature divider.

Pluto-Servo: EMC2 Servo Controller [01166412010]

Pluto_servo is an emc2 driver

servo-based CNC machine. The Pluto-P is an inexpensive ($60)
FPGA board featuring the ACEX1K chip from Altera. Pluto_servo will be released
under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2. The pluto_servo
system is suitable for control of a 4-axis CNC mill, a 3-axis mill with PWM
spindle control, a lathe with spindle encoder, etc.

The sump.org digital logic analyzer [01216696167]
(M)(L)Triggering on a
glitch (unexpected low time) on channel 5
Ever since Steve Padnos let me borrow his commercial logic analyzer at CNC
Workshop, I've been wishing I had one. Several years ago, fenn alerted me to
minila, which consists of GPL
hardware and software, but there don't seem to (presently) be any pre-built
boards available for purchase, and I don't relish soldering surface-mount
parts.
Then I stumbled on this FPGA Based Logic Analyzer. It's works on the still-available, $100 "S3BOARD", and
the FPGA firmware is GPL. (It also has somewhat more memory than minila, and
can also go up to 200MHz. On the other hand, it doesn't have a mode like
minila's "state analysis", and it transfers over slow RS232 serial instead of
EPP). I got the board today, and have some initial experiences to report.

sorttop: show the biggest values as a program runs [01329670473]
When I am looking for big disk users, I don't care about all the little items.
What would be great is to continuously see the biggest items encountered so
far.
To this end, I've written a Python program I call 'sorttop'; it continually
reads stdin, sorts the first column according to magic (i.e., human numbers like from "du -h" work as expected), and shows the top items
read so far. Example usage: du -hx / | python sorttop.py

Positive numbers in the output represent an item that grew since olddu;
negative numbers represent a decrease in size since olddu.
