1.13.0
My K3 thanks you again!
Just curious, probably an intentional optimization; but the effect I was attempting with:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#glow v0.10 2019-03-29 ==============================
#Display glowing "GLOW" using NiLuJe's fbink color features
# ʇɟǝןʎdoƆ (ↄ) PoP under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License
#Usage: glow
# currently using fbink 1.13.0
#keep the Kindle quiet
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.powerd preventScreenSaver 1 #disable screen saver
killall -stop cvm #stop framework
n=1 #repetition number
i=0 #starting color number
j=1 #color increment
while :; do
case $i in
0) COL="BLACK" ;;
15) COL="WHITE" ;;
*) COL="GRAY""$(printf "%1x" $i)" ;;
esac
fbink -S 5 -F BLOCK -C $COL -O -M -m "GLOW"
#screenshot
usleep 500000
i=$((i+j))
if [ $i -gt 15 ] || [ $i -lt 0 ]; then j=$((-j)); n=$((n+1)); i=$((i+j+j)); fi
if [ $n -eq 3 ]; then break; fi #after glowing n times
done
#restore Kindle verbosity
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.powerd preventScreenSaver 0 #enable screen saver
killall -cont cvm #restart framework
... is ruined. The text was supposed to "glow" like this:
But fbink seems to write the text in two pass, first it writes the text in black, then it updates the color map to the specified color. I couldn't smoothly fade-out / fade-in my text.
