pyDDR 0.2.5<BR>
|
|||
|
by theGREENzebra - Saturday, December 22nd 2001 00:39 EST
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> About: PyDDR is a clone of DDR ("Dance Dance Revolution") written in
|
|||
|
Python. The idea of DDR is simple. There's a mat with four
|
|||
|
directional arrows, and the game scrolls arrows up the screen to the
|
|||
|
beat while playing a song. When the arrows reach the top of the screen
|
|||
|
(not sooner and not later), the player hits the corresponding arrow on
|
|||
|
the pad, and given that it's hit on time with the beat, points are scored.
|
|||
|
Based on how well the dance is put together, s/he is graded at the end
|
|||
|
of the song.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> Changes: PyDDR now has working DDR mat support. STEP files can now
|
|||
|
contain starting/ending markers to shorten a full-length MP3 into a
|
|||
|
DDR-length song without modifying the file, and song and group names
|
|||
|
are also displayed at the top of the playfield. A few bugfixes and
|
|||
|
improvements were made regarding fonts, misses, and combos.
|
|||
|
</PRE>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> This is a game written in Python 2.1 and using the Pygame package
|
|||
|
(which is a set of bindings between Python and the SDL game-development
|
|||
|
libraries).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> The thing that's wacky is that it's intended to be used with one of
|
|||
|
those DDR "dance mats." These are little floor mats with four arrows
|
|||
|
arranged in a cross pattern (like old fashioned cursor keys before the
|
|||
|
advent of the "inverted T cursor/arrows" on PC keyboards). You can
|
|||
|
"dance" on the mat, providing "step" input (timing and direction or
|
|||
|
foot placement) for the game. It then awards points based on how
|
|||
|
closely you follow the dance step (which it's displaying and scrolling
|
|||
|
to the tempo of some MPEG encoded music).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> You might have seen video games where kids where dance for a high
|
|||
|
score. I know that I saw lots of these in Japan, where it's apparently
|
|||
|
*very* popular.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> I suppose this is the most exciting non-violent, completely G-rated
|
|||
|
fun that's available for kids on the 'net.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> (Maybe the fact that *I* think it's "wacky" reveals too much about
|
|||
|
me!)

Ext3 and ext2 are compatible filesystems, you can mount ext3 filesystems

with an "only ext2" kernel, _but_ it has to be cleanly unounted (damn,

what is the correct past tense for that what I want to express?)

"Has to have been cleanly unmounted." English can get very funky

sometimes... OTOH, Spanish isn't much better. Hey, Mike! Does Esperanto
|

suck just as much with tenses, or (being a designed language) did they

actually do something with this mess?

But it would be more natural to transform the sentance:
|
|||
|
<PRE>
|
|||
|
... *if* it has been cleanly unmounted ==
|
|||
|
oni povos ... *se* gxi estos pure malmauxntita.
|
|||
|
(-os : both clauses in future tense because of the "if")
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
... *only if* == *nur se*
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
... *if* one unmounted it cleanly first ==
|
|||
|
*se* oni jam malmauxntos gxin pure
|
|||
|
(literally: "already will mount")
|
|||
|
</PRE>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
There's no way around the fact that "has to be cleanly unmounted"
|
|||
|
requires three verbs, with the last one being a past passive participle.
|
|||
|
What Esperanto gives you is a complete set of active and passive
|
|||
|
participles for all tenses.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<PRE>
|
|||
|
mauxnti = to mount (pronounced "mount-ee")
|
|||
|
mauxntas = I/you/we/they mount, (s)he mounts
|
|||
|
mauxntis = mounted
|
|||
|
mauxntos = will mount
|
|||
|
mauxntu = mount! (imperative)
|
|||
|
mauxntus = would mount (subjunctive, as in:
|
|||
|
If I had mounted ext3, my files wouldn't be ruined.
|
|||
|
Se mi mauxntus ext3'on, miaj fajloj ne estus ruinitaj.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If I had been accustomed to mounting ext3, my files wouldn't be ruined.
|
|||
|
Se mi kutimus mauxnti ext3'on, miaj fajloj ne estus ruinitaj.
|
|||
|
(kutimi = to do something habitually)
|
|||
|
</PRE>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> It's easier to explain the participles with "prezidi" (to preside):
|
|||
|
<PRE>
|
|||
|
prezidanto = president (he-who-is-presiding)
|
|||
|
prezidinto = former president (he-who-was-presiding)
|
|||
|
prezidonto = president-elect (he-who-will-preside)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
prezidato = subject (he-who-is-presided-over)
|
|||
|
prezidinto = former subject (he-who-was-presided-over)
|
|||
|
prezidonto = future subject (he-who-will-be-presided-over)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Not officially a part of Esperanto, but you can get away with:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
prezidunto = (subjunctive: he-who-would-be-president [but he's not])
|
|||
|
preziduto = (subjunctive: he-who-would-be-presided-over [but he's not])
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you want to get away from tense:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
prezidento = President (no tense affiliation; a separate word root
|
|||
|
...but most verbs don't have an -ent counterpart)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
gxi devas esti malmauntita == it must be unmounted (it must have been unmounted)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
li devas esti malmauntinta gxin ==
|
|||
|
he must have unmounted it
|
|||
|
he was obligated to have unmounted it
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
li devus esti malmauxninta gxin ==
|
|||
|
he should have unmounted it (subjunctive: but he didn't)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Unofficially, you can combine "esti malmauxntinta" into one verb:
|
|||
|
malmauxntinti (to have unmounted something)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Thus,
|
|||
|
gxi devas malmauxntiti (it must have been unmounted)
|
|||
|
collapsing three verbs into two.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Or even:
|
|||
|
malmauxntintis (is having unmounted something)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
So these are equivalent:
|
|||
|
li estas malmauxntinta gxin
|
|||
|
li malmauxntintas gxin
|
|||
|
== he has unmounted it.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
li estis malmauxntinta gxin
|
|||
|
li malmauxntintis gxin
|
|||
|
== he had unmounted it.
|
|||
|
</PRE>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
But one normally tries to keep the verbs as simple as possible, and not
|
|||
|
use participles unless necessary. English and Spanish habitually say
|
|||
|
"is doing", "was doing" when the participle isn't necessary: this is
|
|||
|
*not* done in Esperanto. Although if you do it, it's not "incorrect",
|
|||
|
just weird.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> The unofficial forms aren't in the grammar books or used by the great
|
|||
|
writers, so they aren't recommended for academic/professional use, but
|
|||
|
because they are logical extensions of the grammar system, they aren't
|
|||
|
"wrong" per se. If enough people use them, eventually they will be
|
|||
|
acknowledged in the Plena Vortaro (Complete Dictionary, literally
|
|||
|
"full word-collection").

|||

|
|

<P>
|

The implications behind all of that are fascinating, "great writers" and
|
|||
|
"academic/professional use" particularly. Any estimates on how many
|
|||
|
Esperanto speakers there are in the world?
|

The only number I heard was that it's the same size as the smallest countries
|
|||
|
in the United Nations. I forget which those were. I suppose we can say, a
|
|||
|
bit smaller than Liechtenstein. How big is Liechtenstein now?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> The difference is that Esperantists are scattered all over the world rather than
|
|||
|
being concentrated in one country. So for instance, you can take an around-the-world
|
|||
|
trip and stay only at Esperanto-speaking lodgings using the Pasporta Servo
|
|||
|
("passport service",
|
|||
|
<A HREF="http://home.planet.nl/~lide/ps/ps_inf_en.htm">http://home.planet.nl/~lide/ps/ps_inf_en.htm</A>). This gets
|
|||
|
you the inside scoop on a country whose language you don't know, even if the
|
|||
|
hosts don't understand your language.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> "Great writers" was an exaggeration. I meant the most respected Esperanto writers
|
|||
|
and translators. E-o's creator L L Zamenhof translated the Bible and Hamlet himself
|
|||
|
before introducing the language, and wrote numerous original poems and proverbs.
|
|||
|
(The regularities of the language make finding rhyming and metric pairs relatively
|
|||
|
easy.)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> "Famous" original works in Esperanto include _Metropoliteno_ by Vladimir Varankin,
|
|||
|
written in the 1920s about the building of the Berlin and Moscow subways. (The
|
|||
|
author was either a loyal Soviet or submitted to Soviet censorship rules, so you
|
|||
|
have to ignore the propaganda-speak in it.) _Mr Tot Acxetas Mil Okulojn_
|
|||
|
(Mr Tot Buys a Thousand Eyes), a humorous look at a travelling salesman with
|
|||
|
comments about the invasion of privacy (Carnivore, PGP back doors, I *knew* we
|
|||
|
could tie this to Linux somehow!). _Kredu Min, Sinjorino!_ (Believe Me, Ma'am!).
|
|||
|
etc. Also the infamous _Knedu Min, Sinjorino!_ (Knead Me, Ma'am!), a dictionary of
|
|||
|
"taboo and insulting expressions", whose title is a satire of the previous book.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> Most Esperanto books, however, are translations. But whereas most
|
|||
|
translations to English come from the top five big languages, translations to
|
|||
|
Esperanto come from a wide variety of small languages. Hungary and Bulgaria
|
|||
|
were centers for Esperanto translation and academia during part of the 20th
|
|||
|
century, and there was also significant activity in England and Germany before
|
|||
|
WWII. In the late 20th century, China produced a significant number of
|
|||
|
children's books and translations of Chinese literature, due to government
|
|||
|
sponsorship of Esperanto. (The way the government is now sponsoring Linux
|
|||
|
projects.) Japan produces a science-fiction anthology series _Sferoj_
|
|||
|
("spheres", but also a pun: "sferoj => science-fiction-pieces" analogous to
|
|||
|
"negxeroj => snowflakes [units of snow]") containing sf from many countries,
|
|||
|
sometimes translated, sometimes original. Brazil, Finland and the Netherlands
|
|||
|
have translators doing their own national works and also works from many other
|
|||
|
countries. There are also works that have been overlooked in English
|
|||
|
translation; e.g., _Lirikaj Perloj de Al-Andalus_ (Lyric Pearls of
|
|||
|
Al-Andalus_), "Spanish and Jewish lyric poetry from Spain during the Golden Age
|
|||
|
of Islam". And of course, the Koran is available, as well as Kempis'
|
|||
|
_Imitation of Christ_, Confucian and Buddhist text and apologies, Spinoza,
|
|||
|
Hillel, Descartes, etc.

Heh. In my PC hardware classes, lo these many years past, I used to destroy

my students' MBRs for fun. Or wipe their CMOS... or crunch the DBR... or
|

|
even make loops in the File Allocation Table, making DOS/Win loop
|

infinitely as it tried to read, say, IO.SYS. All quickly fixable.

It comes down to being a responsible OS. Linux has gained lots of brownie
|
|||
|
points by being the OS that's compatible with more systems than any other,
|
|||
|
access a wider variety of filesystems and network protocols, has a less
|
|||
|
buggy compiler and more sysadmin/developer support tools, etc. In essence,
|
|||
|
the one that saves the day for sysadmins/developers trying to work around
|
|||
|
the shortcomings in other systems. Do we want to lose this good PR by not
|
|||
|
recognizing that uninstalling Linux is just as legitimate as installing it,
|
|||
|
and people may have good reasons to? Perhaps they're a newbie trying Linux
|
|||
|
out and got lost. Perhaps they inherited a computer with Linux on it.
|
|||
|
Whatever. It's about making Linux into a system that "plays nice with others".
|
|||
|
Or more correctly, enhancing the already-good job Linux does with this.
|
|||
|
It's about being a responsible OS.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> Now think about what help The Borg gives you if you want to uninstall it to
|
|||
|
install Linux. Is there any documentation in the Windoze manuals for this?
|
|||
|
What about documentation on how to set up Windoze so that it can share the
|
|||
|
system with Linux? Of course not. Nobody in their right mind would want to
|
|||
|
uninstall The Borg. It has all the features consumers are demanding, and it's
|
|||
|
"innovative". After all, The Borg had Plug-n-Play first!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P> Thus, it's a feather in Linux's cap to make sure the "uninstalling Linux"
|
|||
|
entry is prominently displayed near the top of the FAQ. It shows that we're
|
|||
|
confident enough in the OS to help you uninstall it if you want to. (You'll
|
|||
|
be back...) It gives newbies a safety valve in case they need to uninstall
|
|||
|
Linux someday, they'll know where to look. And finally again, it's a feature
|
|||
|
Windows *doesn't* have.

Uninstalling Linux works out to pretty much the same thing as uninstalling
|
|||
|
Wind*ws - and Microsoft does indeed have an entry in their Knowledge Base
|
|||
|
that describes how to do that (I found the link at Dell, while searching
|
|||
|
for serial port loopback info. <shrug> Go figure.) In reality, we're
|
|||
|
providing instruction for either one. Hmm, <EM>there's</EM> a different way of
|
|||
|
looking at it...
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<P>
|
|||

I definitely agree with the above logic if not the fine details.
