08:46:38 <int-e> ("import" is my main screen shot program and I can't really complain. http://sprunge.us/TFGD (fvwm2 config snippet))
08:54:30 <zzo38> If you use "import" it works, although if using "convert" it doesn't work as well.
08:54:57 <zzo38> I used xwd before, but now instead use my own program.
08:58:00 <zzo38> (If there is a bug in "convert" when trying to screenshot (rather than using "import"), it probably ought to be fix, although I am not too concerned now as I am not using it.)
09:00:43 <zzo38> Of xwd, ImageMagick, and my own program, xwd is fastest and ImageMagick is slowest, it looks like.
09:02:52 <zzo38> So, I think ImageMagick may be too slow for some uses.
09:04:50 <zzo38> Are they faster on your computer?

21:58:43 <HackEgo> Sylvan Might \ 1G \ Instant \ Target creature gets +2/+2 and gains trample until end of turn. \ Flashback {2}{G}{G} (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.) \ OD-U, EMA-C
21:59:05 <shachaf> zzo38: Do you like Bearer of the Heavens?
21:59:08 <HackEgo> bin/card-by-name \ bin/random-card
21:59:14 <shachaf> `card-by-name Bearer of the Heavens
21:59:15 <HackEgo> Bearer of the Heavens \ 7R \ Creature -- Giant \ 10/10 \ When Bearer of the Heavens dies, destroy all permanents at the beginning of the next end step. \ JOU-R
22:01:11 <zzo38> Maybe is somewhat too much powerful but I like those kind of idea too
22:01:40 <shachaf> You think it's too powerful? Why?
22:02:55 <zzo38> It is 10/10 for 8 mana that can destroy all permanents. The cost seem just a little bit low for that.
22:05:33 <zzo38> Still, 10 toughness does make it less likely to due (unless you use Reprisal or something like that!)
22:06:30 <shachaf> I had a deck based on that card.
22:06:52 <int-e> (if the heavens come down crashing, nothing will be left standing)
22:07:00 <shachaf> It had all sorts of cards that would put cards into the graveyard and cards that would put creatures from the graveyard onto the battlefield.
22:07:12 <shachaf> And cards that made all your permanents indestructible.
22:08:10 <zzo38> Of course it can also trigger the death triggers of all other permanents too.
22:09:35 <shachaf> Do you like Celestial Prism?
22:09:40 <shachaf> `card-by-name celestial prism
22:09:41 <HackEgo> Celestial Prism \ 3 \ Artifact \ {2}, {T}: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool. \ A-U, B-U, U-U, RV-U, 4E-U
22:10:08 <zzo38> That is good. I like that one
22:11:05 <HackEgo> Pack Rat \ 1B \ Creature -- Rat \ */* \ Pack Rat's power and toughness are each equal to the number of Rats you control. \ {2}{B}, Discard a card: Create a token that's a copy of Pack Rat. \ RTR-R
22:11:20 <int-e> celestial prism seems expensive
22:11:28 <shachaf> `card-by-name relentless rats
22:11:29 <HackEgo> Relentless Rats \ 1BB \ Creature -- Rat \ 2/2 \ Relentless Rats gets +1/+1 for each other creature on the battlefield named Relentless Rats. \ A deck can have any number of cards named Relentless Rats. \ 5DN-U, 10E-U, M10-U, M11-U
22:13:02 <zzo38> Yes Pack Rat is too good I think.
22:13:56 <shachaf> What other card is too good?
22:15:45 <zzo38> Moxen, I think. (If they are restricted (possibly even like Canadian Highlander does) and proxies are permitted, then they could work though)
22:15:53 <int-e> shachaf: the activated ability destroys one mana and can only be used once per turn (without additional work) and by the time you have 3 mana you are probably also capable of getting the colored mana you need for most decks... I can't see that card carry its weight.
22:16:21 <shachaf> int-e: You're right, it's a terrible card.
22:16:27 <shachaf> I wonder why zzo38 likes it.
22:17:35 <shachaf> zzo38: Do you permit proxen in your games?
22:18:14 <int-e> (1.8g per card... hmm sounds plausible)
22:19:26 <int-e> http://www.quietspeculation.com/2010/09/dream-cache-magic-card-measurements/ <-- answering a question I should never have asked :)
22:19:39 <zzo38> Yes, I do to permit proxies, outside of official tournments (where proxies must be issued only for replacements of cards that got damaged during the tournament)
22:20:15 <zzo38> However the proxy card needs to have the proper Oracle text (possibly omitting reminder text) and enough other similar physical properties, so as to not constitute "marked cards" or biased shuffling.
22:20:16 <int-e> . o O ( proxied blacker lotus )
22:20:57 <zzo38> The card still as to be legal though, so you can't use a proxy of Blacker Lotus unless Blacker Lotus is already legal (which it isn't).
22:21:30 <Zarutian> zzo38: so if someone uses a proxy card that is basically piece of paper inside of a card protection sleeve of the same make as the rest of the cards are in you permit it?
22:21:35 <int-e> but it would stretch the meaning of getting damaged during the tournament in a cute way
22:22:04 <zzo38> Yes, as long as all of the cards in the deck use sleeves (including authentic cards), and it is clear what the card is, then yes.
22:23:26 -!- tromp has joined.
22:24:22 <Zarutian> one thing I do not know of MTG are there cards of similiar power with same name but somewhat different stats?
22:24:48 <int-e> `card-by-name tragic slip
22:24:48 <HackEgo> Tragic Slip \ B \ Instant \ Target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn. \ Morbid -- That creature gets -13/-13 until end of turn instead if a creature died this turn. \ DKA-C, CNS-C, C14-C, EMA-C, DDM-C
22:24:56 <zzo38> Cards with the same name are going to be the same thing.
22:26:09 <zzo38> Pokemon card doesn't do that, but if you play the old-style then each (name,level) pair uniquely identifies a card.
22:26:09 <Zarutian> I see, so the same techniques can be used for implementing MTG online as there is for 'cryptographers poker'.

23:01:13 <zzo38> Do you know how I can make screen shot program I wrote to be faster? Currently it is slower than xwd (but much faster than ImageMagick).
23:01:53 <zzo38> This is that program: http://zzo38computer.org/fossil/farbfeld.ui/raw/ff-xcapture.c?name=2e66c045d39fb98c1a360cb01e9f7ca0071f65c8
23:02:25 <shachaf> Why do you care how fast a screen shot program is?
23:02:45 <shachaf> Have you considered rewriting this program in CWEB?
23:03:20 <zzo38> That would not change the speed that the program runs at.
23:03:46 <zzo38> It would help to publish the program into a book, but that is not the intention at this time.
23:04:43 <zzo38> (Mostly I just want to know why it is slow and how such thing would be made to be faster.)
23:05:33 <HackEgo> 1/2:Aggressive Urge \ 1G \ Instant \ Target creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn. \ Draw a card. \ IN-C, 10E-C \ \ Ghostly Changeling \ 2B \ Creature -- Shapeshifter \ 2/2 \ Changeling (This card is every creature type.) \ {1}{B}: Ghostly Changeling gets +1/+1 until end of turn. \ LRW-U, MM2-C \ \ Urza's Mine \ Land -- Urza's Mine \ {T
23:05:38 <HackEgo> 2/2:}: Add {C} to your mana pool. If you control an Urza's Power-Plant and an Urza's Tower, add {C}{C} to your mana pool instead. \ AQ-C, AQ-U, CH-U, 5E-C, 8ED-U, 9ED-U, ME4-L \
23:05:40 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds).
23:06:17 <shachaf> Is {C} the new colourless symbol?
23:06:27 <zzo38> Yes, that is what it means
23:06:28 <Zarutian> zzo38: you are requesting the screen pixmap how? One pixel or small rect a time or all at once?
23:06:45 <zzo38> Zarutian: You can see the program. It uses a single XGetImage call.

23:07:13 <shachaf> `card-by-name bogbrew witch
23:07:14 <HackEgo> Bogbrew Witch \ 3B \ Creature -- Human Wizard \ 1/3 \ {2}, {T}: Search your library for a card named Festering Newt or Bubbling Cauldron, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle your library. \ M14-R
23:07:26 <shachaf> Do you like Bogbrew Witch?
23:07:59 <Zarutian> zzo38: you tested with x window servers that have diffrent sized viewports? if you have have you noticed any timing variance?
23:08:35 <zzo38> (Adding generic mana into your mana pool still adds colorless mana, although to pay for {C} you need colorless mana specifically, while generic mana symbol can be paid with any mana.)
23:08:43 <zzo38> Zarutian: I have not, but I can try that now.
23:09:06 <shachaf> What's the best color in Magic: The Gathering?
23:10:06 <zzo38> I think probably none of them are best because it can depend what thing you want to make.
23:11:05 -!- jaboja has joined.
23:11:34 <Zarutian> zzo38: I havent read much about the X windows api but does XGetImage return a handle or the pixmap data? because if former then you are basically doing round-trip to the X window server for each pixel.
23:12:19 <zzo38> Zarutian: It returns the data.
23:12:50 <zzo38> The XImage structure contains a pointer to the data in client memory.
23:14:23 <Zarutian> zzo38: you are using shared memory between the client and server I take it? (that is when both are on the same machine)
23:14:26 <zzo38> It is faster for smaller windows.
23:15:04 <zzo38> Zarutian: As far as I know it does not work that way; it makes a copy.
23:17:12 <Zarutian> zzo38: write a program that basically omits writing out the image and see if that is faster for smaller windows or not
23:18:10 -!- sleffy has joined.
23:18:31 <Zarutian> iterating pixel by pixel, scanline by scanline takes a while. Then there is the possibility of buffering or flow control to stdout too.
23:18:40 <zzo38> O, OK I suppose that is the idea to try.
