 How to Setup Linux DC++


LinuxDC++ is a Direct Connect client for Linux based on DC++.
Utilizing the latest DC++ core, LinuxDC++ offers similar functionality to the Windows client like segmented downloading, TTH based file integrity, etc. with a GTK+ user interface. LinuxDC++ is free and open source software licensed under the GPL.


Installation:
Open your package manager and search for linuxdcpp .









If you are using Ubuntu you will you will find it. There are other distribution which have linuxdc++ by default in there repository. Opensuse or fedora don't have it in their main repository.
   OpenSuse:
Go to http://software.opensuse.org/search and search for linuxdcpp . Install linuxdc++ from there.
    Fedora:
Add the RPM-sphere repository.
Go to http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/zhonghuaren
Depending on what version of fedora  you are using download the home:zhonghuaren.repo file. Put this file in the /etc/yum.repos.d/ folder.
You may have to do this as a root.

 sudo yum install linuxdcpp


 Open LinuxDC++ :
  Once installation is done open linuxdcpp. Press Alt+F2 and type  linuxdcpp .  


Setup :

For adding a particular Hub go to View ->   Favorite Hubs -> add


 Ask the administrator of the Hub for Hub address. Add that address in the "Hub address " area. Once the Hub added you can connect it and browse the users.
You can also search  for any file/folder.


 Sharing File/Folders:
If you want to share a file or folder go to file -> Preference
In the personal tab give a username .
In the sharing  tab add a folder which you want to share. Please do share if you download files from other users .


Let me know if you have any problem during this setup or installation .
Enjoy Linux DC++.

Filling between curves with color gradient or cmap in Matplotlib

I was trying to plot fill_between () in matplotlib with color gradient or any cmap defined in pyplot.  After googleing a lot i couldn't find any solution.  An alternative method is to use imshow() . I have created this example :  import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from matplotlib.path import Path from matplotlib.patches import PathPatch xx=np.arange(0,10,0.01) yy=xx*np.exp(-xx) path = Path(np.array([xx,yy]).transpose()) patch = PathPatch(path, facecolor='none') plt.gca().add_patch(patch) im = plt.imshow(xx.reshape(yy.size,1),  cmap=plt.cm.Reds,interpolation="bicubic",                 origin='lower',extent=[0,10,-0.0,0.40],aspect="auto", clip_path=patch, clip_on=True) #im.set_clip_path(patch) plt.savefig("out.png") Source: Matplotlib Example  http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/image_clip_path.html  

pm3d map of gnuplot in matplotlib

In gnuplot pm3d map plot a 3d data into a surface with color as value of "z". Lets say we have a data file something like this .. 0.00    0.00    0.00 0.00    1.00    0.00 0.00    2.00    0.00 0.00    3.00    1.9358 0.00    4.00    3.618 0.00    5.00    5.17 0.00    6.00    6.93 0.00    7.00    8.82 0.00    8.00    10.692 1.00    0.00    0.00 1.00    1.00    0.00 1.00    2.00    0.00 1.00    3.00    2.1318 .... ... In gnuplot prompt we will do something like this . set pm3d map; set dgrid  20,20 sp "data.dat" u 1:2:3    and this will produce a figure something like a...

Installing Latex in mac

Installing latex in mac is very easy if you want to install the full mactex package. But the only  problem is it huge in size (~2GB). An alternative way to install the smaller mactex package. This will   not install some files which might be needed for your .tex file to compile. If you compile by pdflatex it will give some warning like this ! LaTeX Error: File `footmisc.sty' not found. Type X to quit or to proceed, or enter new name. (Default extension: sty) Then you should paste this command in terminal  sudo tlmgr install footmisc collection-fontsrecommended  Similarly if pdflatex complain about any other missing .sty file then install that just  using the above command. I couldn't install psboxit package in the way I described above. This is because psboxit is an absolute package and it is no longer available from the repository. To install this package i did this . cd /usr/local/texlive/2015basic/texmf-dist/tex/latex/  (In...
