what does SHIFT-left-or-right of up-down-left-right do?
Well, I know about shift up-and-down: shift-right ("red" or whatever) up and down on choose-box, HIST, things like that, take the cursor all the way to the beginning or the end. shift-left ("white") on up and down scroll the screen-full up or down (the FIRST such click *stupidly* goes to the final CURRENTLY-ON-SCREEN choice or whatever (meaning TWO double-button-pushes to scroll-down that FIRST time.) What are some of the OTHER possibilities, ie with the left and right arrows? Oh, apparantely undocumented, I've found (via mistaken key-pushes) that RIGHT-arrow will do a SWAP (on stack), and that an UP-arrow gets you into HIST (that HIST is *one nice feature*!) Other tricks with those arrows? Thanks!

does PHP read left to right or right to left?
I've two functions. currentHeadline looks in $_GET for a variable called 'image' and prints what it finds. showThumbnail takes an image for a parameter and resizes it before sending it to the screen. But when I do this: <?php showThumbnail(currentImage(), 20, 20); ?> showThumbnail is telling me that it is not being given a file name, and currentImage is printing the file name to the screen. How is that possible? What is the right way to do this? lawrence k wrote: > I've two functions. currentHeadline looks in $_GET for a variable > called 'image' and pr...

How to shift Left or Right in SSE2
How do I do a bitwise shift left or right in SSE2? I would like that each of the 4 Word is shifted left (or right) by a number of n bits. I could only find _mm_srai_epi32 (only right!), which howevere does not do what I want, as it brings in introduce the sign bit.

Changing x-axis plot from right to left to left to right
Hi, For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) I am aware of set xrange reverse but this just inverts the whole graph and displays from 17 .... 1 down along the x-axis rather than plotting the other way round. I'm rather stuck and would appreciate some advice. Regards Jamie On 14.08.2012 17:52, Jamie Rees wrote: > For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my > data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, > at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) That makes no sense whatsoever. gnuplot generates some kind of picture. It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever whether a line was drawn from left to right or right to left --- it'll be the same line in the end, consisisting of exactly the same pixels being coloured. So since this doesn't make sense, maybe you should tell us what your actual problem is, so we can find out how that might be solved.

Changing M-<right,left> to C-<right,left>
Hello, I tried to change the word moving behaviour as shown in the post title and could not. Part of my .emacs is below. (global-set-key (kbd "C-z") 'undo) (global-set-key (kbd "C-<right>") 'forward-word) (global-set-key (kbd "C-<left>") 'backward-word) Finally, how could I open a new buffer proportionally in the same window?

Using Ada (or SPARK) in Ada-unaware environment
Hi, Imagine a control system (to be developed) which needs to interact with some devices. Those devices are supplied with C drivers and libraries. What is the recommended practice for developing this control system in Ada (or SPARK)? I basically see two options for this: 1. Enjoy Ada's ability to interface with C libraries (pragma Import) and write everything in Ada. 2. Write separate programs in C (or C++) that will be responsible only for talking to the devices via their C access libraries. Write the main controller in Ada, as another separate program, and use some form of interprocess communication to have all those components talk. The advantage of the second option is that the controller part can be easily tested in isolation or in a fake environment. Are there some other options for this? What is the industry recommented practice?

how to locate right slot in a range with right-shifting and offset?

For example if x is 6, I want to find the second block (from 5 to 7) in the above figure. ( x is integers). In a technical report, for this task, I see they use the operator: block_address=x >> shift_amount + offset_amount. (>> is right shift). where shift_amount and offset_amount are the same for all values of x. (all ...

Right or Left ?
A simple multimedia setup can be a display monitor with speakers positioned on both sides. Think of this equipment as being on a 'stage' in a theater, and the user as being the 'audience' in that theater. What is called the "left" speaker -- is it the one on the left of the audience (as viewed by the audience), or the one on the left of the stage (as viewed by an actor standing ON the stage, facing out towards the audience) ? mikus Sir: Mikus Grinbergs wrote: > A simple multimedia setup can be a display monitor with > speakers positioned on both sides.

You plug the left speakers into the jack marked left and let the recording studio worry about stage left or stage right. In computers, though, one has to make sure all the wires are plugged in correctly, and most home builders and factory assemblers don't care. Which is why digital transfer is important. An easy test is to turn off one side using a multimedia control like balance and seeing which speaker tal...

"Not supported" has different consequences depending on the widget and the underlying platform toolkit. For read-only widgets there are platform specific work-arounds and on some native controls (like menus on Windows and Mac OS X) it just works automatically. You may want to look into gnocl, the Tcl binding for the Gnome toolkit. Gnome is supposed to support bidi fine.

Left and Right arrows
Hi, In recently recieved some excellent advice which ebnabled me to make a form behave as a spreadsheet with respect to the down and up arrow keys. To develop this further I would like the right and left arrow to move to the next or previous tab control. DoCmd.GotoRecord,,AcNext does the business for down, but nowhere can I find a 'docmd go to next tab' or words to that effect!!! Any ideas? Hum, I assume when you say "tab", you are talking about a tab control? I would not take away the left/right arrow keys...as then how can a user edit data in a field? They need the arrow keys to move within that field. If the whole field is highlighted when the cursor enters..then you can normally use the left/right arrows to move to the next/previously control (is this what you are asking for now???). However, if a users is actually typing/editing data in a control..then they need the left right arrow keys for editing. I don't think it is a very good idea to steal those keys, as then how can a user edit text in a field? You can usually hit ctrl-TAB to jump to the next tab. Also, perhaps ctrl-right arrow, and ctrl-left arrow might be a possible keys to use..but I can't see stealing the left/right arrow keys. To steal the ctrl-right/ and left key, you can add the following code to your keydown handler: Dim intTabCount As Integer Const TabMax As Integer = 1 ' max number of tabs (less 1, since this is zero...

In reality there are many ways to do this. The >>> operator only works if the value is signed. For unsigned values you need to either cast it signed or resort to bit manipulation like the previous poster showed.

Stick left AND right
Hello, I am preparing an index which is typeset in a multi-column layout. Keywords are aligned with the left margin, the corresponding page number is aligned with the right margin. Naively, I use \hfill for this purpose: \newcommand{\Entry}[2]{#1\hfill #2} \Entry{key}{1234} \Entry{keyword}{1234} \Entry{word}{4332} results in: key 1234 keyword 1234 word 4332 However, with the occasional very long keywords (columns are wide enough to hold ca. 95% of keywords+page number in one line), the page number wraps into the next line, and the pagenumber appears at the left margin of the column: verylongkeyword 1234 How can I achieve that the page number sticks to the right side, like verylongkeyword 1234 Thank you for suggestions and hints!

Print shifted left
On all of my documents, the print is shifted about 1/8 to the left. I am Using Suse 9.2, an Epson 740 and an HP Deskjet 5740. The 740 uses the gimp-print driver and the 5740 uses the hpijs drivers. Since both printers, with different drivers were affected, and all printouts, I am thinking the problem may be with Ghostscript. Can anyone help in trouble shooting this?

Why not automatic \left and \right ?
Hi folks, I've been wondering why \left and \right aren't assumed in the math mode. I thought it would be nice if \left and \right were automatic. I mean, I'd like all opening parens "(" to be regarded as "\left(" and closing parens as "\right)". It is rare (in my use) that automatic "\left(" or "\right)" would do any harm. When parens aren't paired, we could still use \left or \right: \left( something tall \right. If we ever need to suppress the stretching of parens, we could explicitly say something li...

I don't know why, the other right-modifier keys all work but right shift key doesn't go through.
