🟠️ Nouvel article sur le blog ! 😁

Envie de frimer devant les collègues et de passer pour un hackerz capable de lire la matrice à l'œil nu ? Aujourd'hui je vous présente ImHex, l'éditeur hexadécimal kilékrôbo ! :blobaww:

Dans cet article, je commence par expliquer ce qu'est un éditeur hexa, puis je parle l'éditeur de pattern de ImHex qui est l'une des fonctionnalités qui le rend si puissant. 😄

Just edited a short story where the main character was clearly an author insert but I was experiencing a whole new culture and intersectional story so felt as if everything was fresh, so now I think readers don't know the difference between an author insert and a Mary Sue. Besides, this author insert died at the end after having absolutely nothing go right for him, at all, in the story so, well, I wanted to give the writer a hug because if he thinks this is his future he needs one! #Editing #Editor

I was manually looking for #OCL #courses (via a classical Google search, yes, some of us still do it from time to time) to complement the info we got from our hashtag#teaching #ocl online form ⬇️

📋modeling-languages.com/teachin You still have the time to fill it! ✍️

And my overall impression is that:

❌ Very few institutions teach OCL.
❌ Even worse, I feel there are less and less. Indeed, when searching online, I get quite a lot of old results from courses that were offered at some point (many around 15-20 years ago) but have since then disappeared (I guess replaced by, among others, sexier AI related topics).
❌ The tooling situation is one of the key factors (as reported also in the comments of the post linked above).
✅ I'm hoping that our online OCL tool (see github.com/BESSER-PEARL/B-OCL-, led by Fitash Ul Haq, PhD and now part of our #web #modeling #editor editor.besser-pearl.org/ ) and free #tutorials can be useful if any of you wants to give OCL a second chance.

Because if not OCL, then what? 🤔

Does anyone know of a #text #editor, which runs in a #Linux #terminal, and uses only the characters: lowercase a-z, 0-9, comma, and period, in commands?

I want such an editor to ease my life on #Termux in Android, because these characters are the only ones immediately accessible on a standard Samsung keyboard, without the use of symbol keys.

And no, #vim doesn't fit the bill, because it needs Esc, ":" and "$"; #emacs and #nano are out because of the Ctrl and Alt keys, conspicously absent from mobile keyboards.
