Matt Gemmell<p>Never say never, because I added a couple of useful features to TextIndex recently: latex index-commands import, and Section Mode, the latter of which is demonstrated on the TextIndex documentation page itself! <a href="https://mattgemmell.scot/textindex/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">mattgemmell.scot/textindex/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GPL3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GPL3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/indexodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>indexodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/BookIndexing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BookIndexing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/IndexingBooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndexingBooks</span></a></p>
Matt Gemmell<p>Quick update on my TextIndex project. Recently added:</p><p>• Inbound cross-references<br>• Run-in style option for deepest level (&gt;2)<br>• Letter-headings option for indexes<br>• Wildcards can now also be used in sort-keys and cross-refs</p><p>Repo and docs updated. Considering this to be functionally complete now, though requests and issues always welcome!</p><p><a href="https://mattgemmell.scot/textindex" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">mattgemmell.scot/textindex</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GPL3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GPL3</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/BookIndexing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BookIndexing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/index" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>index</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/indexing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>indexing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Indexodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Indexodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/indexingtips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>indexingtips</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/indexingbooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>indexingbooks</span></a></p>
Matt Gemmell<p>Just a quick announcement for TextIndex, my latest book/publishing-related open source project! <a href="https://mattgemmell.scot/textindex/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">mattgemmell.scot/textindex/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GPL3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GPL3</span></a> </p><p>It’s a simple syntax (and parser, in Python) for creating indexes — in the end-of-a-book sense — in Markdown or other text documents. Its purpose is to help with producing scholarly content online and in digital and printed books.</p><p>Read the documentation for much, much more, and don’t forget to check out that page’s own index!</p>
Tiago F<p>Desenvolvida pelo Centro de Computação Científica e Software Livre (C3SL), vinculado ao Departamento de Informática da UFPR, a rede social MECRED possui 44 mil usuários, que já compartilharam 320 mil recursos educacionais na plataforma, que podem ser acessados gratuitamente de qualquer lugar do Brasil. Os vídeos explicam, de forma simples e acessível, como utilizar os principais recursos da rede: desde a criação de conta até o compartilhamento de planos de aula, passando pela navegação, edição de perfil e organização de materiais didáticos.</p><p><a href="https://www.c3sl.ufpr.br/2025/07/19/c3sl-lanca-tutoriais-para-ajudar-professores-a-usar-rede-social-da-educacao-publica/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">c3sl.ufpr.br/2025/07/19/c3sl-l</span><span class="invisible">anca-tutoriais-para-ajudar-professores-a-usar-rede-social-da-educacao-publica/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://bolha.us/tags/SoftwareLivre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareLivre</span></a> <a href="https://bolha.us/tags/gpl3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gpl3</span></a> <a href="https://bolha.us/tags/ufpr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ufpr</span></a> <a href="https://bolha.us/tags/c3sl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>c3sl</span></a></p>
Matt Gemmell<p>I need to write the docs (using FigureMark, my other recent syntax+parser project), but it’ll be <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/gpl3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gpl3</span></a> as usual. And the annotated sample doc in the screenshot is from _another_ side-project; my weird little book-in-progress on how to approach designing your own mechanical keyboard layouts. 🤪</p>
Matt Gemmell<p>Further to my twoots here yesterday, I give you: FigureMark! This is already very useful to me, and maybe you’ll find it handy too. Full docs plus a python implementation: <a href="https://mattgemmell.scot/figuremark/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">mattgemmell.scot/figuremark/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/GPL3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GPL3</span></a></p>
stib<p>So, I make bits of software, mostly plug-ins for platforms like <a href="https://aus.social/tags/DaVinciResolve" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DaVinciResolve</span></a> or <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Blender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Blender</span></a>, mostly because I have a particular thing that needs doing that no-one has catered to. And I yoik them up to Codeberg and if I'm feeling organised I'll write them up on my blog, so that anyone else that has the same particular need can benefit too. I have no intention of selling them, because marketing stuff is not something I remotely enjoy doing, testing and bug fixing is too time consuming, and because I consider it payment for all the free software I get to use.<br>Generally I release everything under the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/GPL3" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GPL3</span></a>, because it's the one I know about. I'm not really a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/coder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>coder</span></a>, and I'm far less a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/lawyer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lawyer</span></a>, so I have no idea if this is the best option. <br>So the question I want to <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AskFedi</span></a> is: what do you do with small <a href="https://aus.social/tags/code" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>code</span></a> projects you write? What license do you release them under and why, and how do you go about distributing them? <br>I've only ever had one or two people fork my code or make PRs, I don't think a lot of people in my industry also code, so everything I do is a solo project. So I'd be interested in how people find collaborators for stuff they do.<br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a></p>
Baa<p><span>Me when I see people complain that GPL3 makes a project hard to monetise because it's incompatible with their proprietary licenses.<br></span><a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/GPL3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GPL3</a></p>
seanpm2001 🇺🇦️<p>I am a day late on this (I am posting this on a Wednesday) but I didn't want to wait until next week.</p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/TakeoutTuesdays" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TakeoutTuesdays</span></a> is a weekly event of mine, where <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>data</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/takeout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>takeout</span></a> is prioritized every <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Tuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Tuesday</span></a>.
