    I NEED ENGINEERS AND PROGRAMMERS HELP

    I would like to add many more engineering calculations, e.g. orifice plate, PSV, control valve etc.
    but I am not a process engineer, so making the research and applying correct formulas is a very
    time consuming process. I will greatly appreciate anyone\'s help who has a process engineering
    background. Please provide the sizing calculation formulas so that I can write the calculation module.

    As I am not a programmer, the code may not be perfect. But I will also greatly appreciate any help
    with programming, e.g. making the code better, fixing bugs, adding features.


    THINGS I WANT TO DO:

    - Change data dialogs to table view
    - Change data from XML for SQLite
    - Thermowell - choose between % from pipe center or % of pipe ID
    - Thermowell select image - draw TW in pipe based on entered dimensions
    - Use common functions/modules (database, file)
    - Translit - add Google Translate
    - Codec - add encypted DVD transcoding
    - Convert all UIs to QML

    Lock It (File Locker/Unlocker) 1.1.0 (KDE Service Menu)

    Tue, 2012/02/07 - 11:24pm
    ThumbnailLock It (File Locker/Unlocker) 1.1.0
    (KDE Service Menu)
    This service menu uses the file system attributes to prevent user for delete very important files and folders, such as music, video, school works, company databases, etc..
    It depends on the \"chattr\" command provided by the \"e2fsprogs\", and works only with ext2, ext3 and ext4 file system.
    Only the root user can lock or unlock the files, and when a file is locked, not even root can delete it.
    The use is pretty simple. Lock the files that you want to protect, when you need to modify a protected file or add a new file to a protected folder, just unlock it, when you finish working with it, lock it again.

    - Installation

    Just uncompress the file to:

    ~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/

    And restart Dolphin and Konqueror.

    Tue, 2012/02/07 - 11:22pm
    ThumbnailSkeleton Plasmoid 0.1a
    (Plasmoid Script)
    For a long time I have been collecting information about creation of plasmoids in Python.
    All that I found, I have implemented in this demo (but many features are still in development).

    Hopefully, it will be useful for you and help you to create more great plasmoids.

    IMPLEMENTED SO FAR:
    1. Notifications
    2. Configuration management (plus configuration window)
    3. Tooltips
    4. Ability to change form-factor between panel plasmoids and desktop versions on-demand
    5. Custom contextual actions
    6. Transparent compilation of UI from *.ui files
    7. Localization

    PLANNED:
    1. Wallet integration
    2. DataEngines
    3. Solid samples (eg. Networking)
    4. Refactoring of current codebase
    5. Documentation
    6. Your proposals.

    NOTE:
    1. Application does not use self.config() method provided by KDE SC due to some issues.
    By default, skeleton implements ConfigParser.RawConfigParser as engine for manipulation with configuration.

    Kate Include Helper Plugin 0.2 (KDE Text Editor)

    Mon, 2012/02/06 - 7:05am
    ThumbnailKate Include Helper Plugin 0.2
    (KDE Text Editor)
    This plugin is intended to simplify the hard life of C/C++ programmers who use Kate to write code First of all, I tired to use the file browser to open mine (or system) header files. With this version 0.1 of the plugin one may press F10 to open a header file that has its name under cursor. Actually, you are not even required to move a cursor to a file name if the current line starts with #include directive...

    Version 0.2 has #include lines auto-completer which is really helps to type long paths and filenames :)
    Despite it already useful now, there are some cool things to appear in version 0.3...

    Unfortunately currently there exists only a live-ebuild for Gentoo systems and right now I have no plans to make packages for other distros...

    changelog:
    Version 0.1
    * open header files using F10 key

    Version 0.2
    * push '#include' directive w/ current file name into the clipboard, so it would be easy to switch to another document and just paste the whole #include line...
    * finally it has auto-completer for path and file name for strings w/ '#include' on a line! Yeah, now it's really easy to type and find a required header...

    NVidia Device Monitor 0.1.2 (Plasmoid Binary)

    Sun, 2012/02/05 - 5:06pm
    ThumbnailNVidia Device Monitor 0.1.2
    (Plasmoid Binary)
    This is a simple NVidia Device Monitor. It displays card model, temperature and gpu\'s memory occupation.
    Proprietary drivers are required.

    The tar file contains a separate folder with the plasma data engine only. I think it's useful for those who want to to write other plasmoids for the same purpose, maybe with a more polite interface. Data engine is written in c++, applet is written in QML.

    (This is my first plasmoid, I hope it's useful.)

    INSTALLATION:
    extract the tar.gz file, then execute install-for-current-user.sh script or install-for-global.sh script.

    otherwise:
    mkdir build
    cd build

    1. install for global
    cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
    make
    make install (with root, use kdesu, sudo, su, anything you like)
    kbuildsycoca4 (for refresh the list)

    2. install for current user
    cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --localprefix` ..
    make
    make install
    kbuildsycoca4 (for refresh the list)

    BusyTasks 11.9 (Plasmoid Script)

    Sun, 2012/02/05 - 12:46pm
    ThumbnailBusyTasks 11.9
    (Plasmoid Script)
    Update 11.9: Small changes to handle high update rate in panels.

    Simple but highly configurable task monitor.
    Isn't everything some kind of process? At least on a computer it is. So let's keep an eye on them.

    This plasmoid initially was a clumsy spin-off from Dmitry Makovey's tail plasmoid, but after I got more and more used to python and the program got more and more complex I cut everything superfluous and eventually separated it from tail.
    This plasmoid uses several programs to get its input. The collected data is neither unique nor new, but the idea to clearly sum it up in one single program is. This task monitor displays up to four different tasks, each with different priority.

    CPU intensive task:
    Name and the percentage of the most CPU intensive task. The underlying top daemon is very efficient and does not really affect CPU and IO.

    Memory intensive task:
    Name of the most memory intensive task, combined with a measure of size (absolute value or percentage to total available memory).
    The implementation is the same as for the task above.

    IO intensive task:
    The task that currently asks for IO.
    The software package includes an own version of iotop that sends data via shared memory.

    NET intensive task:
    The task that eats up your bandwidth.
    You will be prompted for an administrator password when starting nethogs.
    Like the one of iotop, this is a modified nethogs daemon that does not affect IO.

    Additionally, the configurable update interval plays a crucial role in resource consumption. The smaller it is set, the more resources are needed.
    There should be slightly less resource consumption (in terms of IO as well as overall) since release 8.0. Release 10.0 eventually cut out all IO.

    The plasmoid is highly configurable to fit most desktop designs.
    It supports highlighting of processes, either through a simple colour change after a certain limit of per cents or via colour gradient. For the statisticians among you, you can even log output. BusyTasks is only useful if it is always visible (e.g. residing on a panel) If you'd have got to minize windows or show the desktop to have a glance on it you could equally start the system monitor.

    REQUIREMENTS:
    For full functionality, you need to meet the following requirements:
  • Installation of top in your command-line interpeter. This usually is the case on UNIX OSs.
  • Proper value of $HOME variable in the shell environment
  • The System V IPC module for python.
    If you don't have it yet, visit http://semanchuk.com/philip/sysv_ipc/ for download and install instructions.
    Short manual:
    Download file, go to the related directory and run "sudo python setup.py install". For systems linking python 3 per default, type "sudo python2 setup.py install". If it quits moaning about a python file install the package "python-dev(el)" first.
  • There is a chance that one of the used backends (iotop and nethogs) does not work due to missing libraries. Basically there are two ways to proceed: Either install the standalone versions of iotop and nethogs and benefit from automatic dependency resolution or get the missing files/packages manually. BusyTasks usually reports the problem. (read section "troubleshooting")

  • TROUBLESHOOTING:
  • If you have a problem with resizing, activate the option "resize manually"
  • On systems with linux kernel 3.1 (or above), iotop must be run in administration mode. Before activation, make sure there's a permissions error with standard rights. Be careful, arbitrarily switching between user and administration mode may cause an IPC permission error!
  • If the iotop daemon does not start, some libraries may be missing. (see plasmoid output) Install them via KPackageKit, pacman, portage, etc.
  • If none of the implemented nethogs daemons run, download the sources (see links), compile it directly on your system, copy it to the BusyTasks directory and overwrite one of the existing nethogs0* daemons.
  • If the name resolution of VirtualBox virtual machines does not work and you see some weird symbols, close the plasmoid, delete the current bashpipetosharedmemory75* binaries from the contents folder and use the old ones by removing the *.old endings. Additionally, they must be executable.
  • On some systems the superuser frontend does only accept passwords entered in terminals. As a consequence the "use administrative password"-setting does not work, you've to manually enter your password each time. As a workaround, one may handle the daemons in the appropriate system runlevel.
  • If you still don't get it to work, contact me here or via mail. You probably found a bug/compatibility problem.

    BUGS:
    Since release 11.5 the program should be (nearly) bug free.
    Please report here or via mail (see plasmoid info) if your plasma-desktop crashes (so that I can at least remove the above claim), which usually happens when BusyTasks is removed from the desktop.
    The plasmoid was tested on several distributions (read below).
    Known bugs:
    1. Inside a panel configuration is not possible. You have to drag it out and change settings there.
    2. Likewise, process display delay for IO and network does not work inside it. I conclude that refresh events are triggered independently by plasma-desktop. Tests confirmed that the plasmoid is updated 2-3 times per second irregardless of its settings. Fixed

    PERFORMANCE:
    Python may be the wrong language to write such a tool in.
    Currently the process of (re)configuration is horribly slow.
    On the one hand, bad code is responsible for the speed inefficiency, on the other hand it is my quest for user-conveniency and upwards-compatibility that accounts for this behaviour. As jobs of configuration or organisation are usually done only twice per runtime (at startup and at termination) it's still acceptable.
    I'll probably rewrite the whole program (including the iotop daemon) in C++ sometime (sometime...what a nice euphemism for never ;-)). For the moment performance remains the only real bug.

    TESTS: Program successfully tested on:
    Kubuntu 9.10, 11.04 and 11.10
    Fedora 15
    OpenSUSE 11.4
    Arch 2011-08-19
    Slackware 13.37
    Gentoo 11.2

    TRANSLATIONS:
    If you want to contribute to the project, feel free to unpack the plasmoid-package and read the translation instructions in the contents folder.

    I strongly recommend all who have installed a previous version to get an update!
    Please comment, rate and criticise.
    In the long run I'll have to create a website for documentation because the installation possibilities and configuration options are quite impressive and this description's already uncomfortably large. Due to a severe lack of time reading tooltips is all I suggest for now.

    1.0 Initial release
    2.0 Keeping original top configuration, Panel integration
    2.1 Minor ajdustment: support for multiple plasmoids
    3.0 Highlighting a process passing a certain limit with an individual colour.
