“Fortune magazine has an article stressing the Chinese market’s importance to Microsoft’s long term strategy, and touching on Linux’s involvement in the Chinese market. In the early days of Microsoft rampant piracy helped establish it as the de facto standard in PCs despite good alternatives. History may be unfolding again here, with the exception that having the Chinese government as an ally has huge additional benefits. Or perhaps Gates has met his match with the Chinese government. ‘In another boost for Microsoft, the government last year required local PC manufacturers to load legal software on their computers. Lenovo, the market leader, had been shipping as few as 10% of its PCs that way, and even US PC makers in China were selling many machines “naked.” Another mandate requires gradual legalization of the millions of computers in state-owned enterprises. In all, Gates says, the number of new machines shipped with legal software nationwide has risen from about 20% to more than 40% in the past 18 months.’”

Gaupol 0.8 Luglio 10, 2007
Posted by linuxiano in Linux, Utility, editor, gnome.2 comments

Gaupol is an editor for text-based subtitle files. It supports multiple subtitle file formats and provides means of correcting texts and timing subtitles to match video. The user interface is designed with attention to batch processing of multiple documents and convenience of translating.
Gaupol should run on all Unix-like (GNU/Linux, *BSD, etc.) operating systems. Technically it should be able to run on Windows and Mac as well, but that has not been tested nor made convenient. Gaupol’s user interface is based on the GTK toolkit and has been designed to best fit the GNOME desktop environment.
Gaupol 0.8 has been released. Large parts of code have been rewritten and parts of the user interface have been redesigned. Configuration file uses a new system and old configurations are discarded. Line lengths are now optionally shown on all text elements. Dependencies have been bumped: Python to 2.5 or greater and PyGTK to 2.10 or greater. License has been upgraded to GPL v3 or later. See the news file for a more comprehensive list of changes.
