Sean McGrath, CTO, Propylon Sean McGrath's Weblog. Thursday, December 02, 2004 Plone is to Zope as XML is to SGML This story uses the noun "Plone" (as in "Plone" ) as a verb. Interesting. Plone is what you get when you assemble some cool stuff on top of a Zope substrate, parcel it up, get people behind it, etc. Plone is very wonderful stuff because (at leat in part), Zope is very cool stuff. Zope in turn is very wonderful stuff because (at least in part) Python is cool stuff. The verbification of Plone reminds me of the birth of XML. We got XML by assembling some cool stuff on top of an SGML substrate, parcelled it up, got people behind it, etc. People use XML as a verb in a way they never used SGML as a verb.

This is the third edition of the First Guide to PostScript . It differs from the first and second in that a number of errors which people have brought to my attention have been fixed and a number of common reader questions have been addressed. Some more information on resources has also been added. It is my hope that this document is now stable and reasonably error-free. If you find an error, please send me e-mail and let me know. I can't promise that I'll fix it right away, but I will at least add it to my list of things to do. By the way, I wish to thank the many people who have written to point out errors in this document's predecessor. Many of the improvements are due to them. About this Document This is meant to be a simple introduction to programming in the PostScript page description language from Adobe . This document is not meant to be a comprehensive reference manual (although it does contain an index of some of PostScript's standard operators and a list of various errors ). There are far better reference books , if this is what you need. Instead, this is meant as an easily accessible on-line tutorial. It was written with the assumption that you have some experience programming and are familiar with concepts like arrays and variables.

46. PostScript Quick Tips Short programming examples. http://www.wiskit.com/postscript/quicktips/

PostScript Quick Tips Herb Weiner (herbw@wiskit.com) writes the PostScript Quick Tips column for X-Change, the Adobe Technology Exchange (ATX) newsletter. PostScript Quick Tips are PDF (Portable Document Format) files, which can be read using Adobe Acrobat Reader or Exchange. Another useful reference is the PostScript Frequently Asked Questions from the Usenet comp.lang.postscript newsgroup. Creating a Mirror Image Font Have you ever needed a mirror image of a symbol from the Zapf Dingbats font? Perhaps you've needed a hand or arrow pointing to the left rather than to the right. This Quick Tip demonstrates how to create a Zapf Dingbats Mirror font, in which each character is a mirror image of the corresponding character from the Zapf Dingbats font. Once you understand the process, you'll be able to use this same technique to create additional mirror fonts. Creating a Background Text Message Have you ever seen paper with the word "Confidential" printed diagonally in a large outline from the lower left corner to the upper right corner? Have you ever wished you could label your own documents "Preliminary", "Draft", "For Review Only", or with some similar message? This Quick Tip demonstrates how to create a background text message for your pages. Formatting Recipes Formatting recipes is a problem that is not handled well by most desktop publishing software. We want our recipes to be attractive, yet easy to use for both shopping and preparation. We also must have a format that's easy to update, so that revising the instructions or adding an ingredient does not require tedious manual reformatting. This Quick Tip describes the technique used to format the recipes in

47. Graphics Concepts User Space This is the coordinate system used by postscript programs to Current Path This is the path that the postscript program is creating at the http://www.cs.indiana.edu/docproject/programming/postscript/graphics.html

Graphics Concepts There are a few concepts that you need to know about before we dive into the language itself. These concepts are the concepts PostScript uses to describe and manipulate images on a page. There are really only a few. Device Space This is the coordinate space understood by the printer hardware. This coordinate system is typically measured in terms of the device's resolution. There is really nothing else that can be said about this space, as PostScript programs are typically not expressed using it. User Space This is the coordinate system used by PostScript programs to describe the location of points and lines. User space is essentially the same as the first quadrant of the standard coordinate system used in high school math classes. Point (0, 0) is in the lower left corner. Coordinates are real numbers, so there is no set resolution in user space. The interpreter automatically converts user space coordinates to device space. Current Transformation Matrix The transformation of user space coordinates to device space coordinates is done through the current transformation matrix. This matrix is a three by three matrix that allows the user to rotate, scale, and translate the entire user space within the device space. This is the source of a lot of PostScript's power, as will be demonstrated later. Path A path is a collection of (possibly disjoint) line segments and curves arranged on the page. The path does not describe actual ink on the paper; it merely describes an imaginary tracing over the page. There are operators which allow the user to draw ink along the path (

Programming Language Semantics using Miranda Simon Thompson Technical Report 9-95*, University of Kent, Computing Laboratory, University of Kent, Canterbury, UK, May 1995. Abstract This paper explains the use of the functional programming language Miranda as a vehicle for describing the semantics of imperative programming languages. In particular we give a Miranda denotational description of a substantial subset of a Pascal-like language, describing a number of variants of the semantics, including parameter passing by value-result, dynamic binding of values to names and a simple semantics of jumps. We also give an executable operational semantics of our basic language, as well as a compiler for this language into a simple stack machine, which is itself modelled in Miranda.

53. L-systems In PostScript Although postscript can be used for programming crazy things, While in California, I found on the web a postscript program that draws the Dragon Curve. http://www.cs.unh.edu/~charpov/Programming/L-systems/

L-systems in PostScript Although PostScript can be used for programming crazy things, such as computing prime numbers , it can also be used for graphics. The nice thing about PostScript, is that it's not just a way to describe images, but to actually build images, as it has the full power of a programming language. So, it allows you to write small programs that make the printer compute an image (and, incidentally, print it). I've always been fascinated with the Dragon Curve . One of the first program I ever wrote was a Pascal program that drew it. The Dragon Curve, like all fractals, is highly recursive. Interestingly enough, my Pascal program was not, as I understood nothing about recursion at that time. (It seemed to be just a complicated way to program simple things like factorials or GCDs.) I wish I could dig up that program today. It must have been a remarkable piece of junk. While in California, I found on the web a PostScript program that draws the Dragon Curve. It intrigued me enough to actually make me learn PostScript just to understand the program. But that didn't help me understand the algorithm. Although by then I had a better understanding of recursion (the Towers of Hanoi had enlightened me years before, way more successfully than factorials or GCDs), I was still unable to understand how this program, which relied on two mutually recursive functions and rotations of 45 degrees (all angles in a Dragon Curve are right angles), could draw a Dragon Curve.

In fact, you've likely heard people touting PDF as the replacement for PostScript. Have you ever wondered why? Let's start with a definition of what PostScript and PDF are at a very fundamental level. We'll take a quasi-technical look at both, after which the mists will vanish and all will be revealed. A matter of language First, let's look at PostScript. PostScript is a page description language - a programming language, much like those that software engineers use to build applications. In fact, you can do an experiment to prove this to yourself. In

PostScript is a programming language Updated: Wednesday April 26th, 2004 In the last lab you explored a very conventional interpreterone that emulates typical computer architecture with memory, a stack, and instructions that manipulate them both. To avoid having to do register allocation when generating these instructions (which we did by hand), we used instructions that operated on the stack rather than in registers. The syntax was fairly simple and fixed: .decl x main: ; x = foo(20) const 20 call foo store x halt There was no way, for example, to introduce a new byte-code instruction and then use it. You can in fact see the above instructions as keywords in a very low-level language. When you see halt , you know precisely what that means. The interpreter knows nothing of symbols, the assembler actually translates the symbols to physical addresses before execution. The byte-code interpreter really is simulating a traditional CPU. Today we will explore another interpreter architecture, again based on stack operations, but one that has no keywords! I am referring to PostScript , a page description language, created by Adobe Systems circa 1985. PDF (Acrobat) files are essentially just compressed postscript files, so postscript is an actively-used programming language. It is worthwhile learning how its interpreter works and how to code a little postscript to impress your friends. In fact, one project that I may do in the future is to build a little compiler that generates postscript and, to run your program, you have to send the generated code to the printer (or use

58. Learning Perl The Hard Way Book aimed at those who can already program in another language; emphasizes programming style. Distributed under the GNU FDL. PDF/postscript http://www.greenteapress.com/perl/

Green Tea Press Green Tea Home Page Learning Perl the Hard Way by Allen B. Downey Do we really need another Perl book? Well obviously I think so, and here's why: I want a book for people who already know how to program in another language, but don't know Perl. I want a book that gets through the basics as quickly as possible. I'm sick of reading about the precedence of operators; I want to know how to do the fun stuff. I want a book that emphasizes good programming style in Perl. Many of the Perl programs I have seen are written in a quick-and-dirty style; I wanted to see if the style I have developed in other languages can translate. In many Perl books, object-oriented programming is treated as an optional feature for advanced programming. I wanted to bring it closer to the center of focus (although I am anything but an object-oriented bigot). In presenting Perl features, I tried to find examples that are interesting in their own right, and that encourage the reader to explore Perl's features. This book is a work in progress. I have some ideas about what will go into the next few chapters, but I am open to suggestions. I am looking for interesting programming projects that highlight some of the moderately advances features of Perl, like inter-process communication, the Perl/tk interface, or one of the infinite number of modules on CPAN.

PostScript Tutorial Written by Paul Bourke Original November 1990. Last updated December 1998 Introduction Postscript is a programming language that was designed to specify the layout of the printed page. Postscript printers and postscript display software use an interpreter to convert the page description into the displayed graphics. The following information is designed as a first tutorial to the postscript language. It will concentrate on how to use postscript to generate graphics rather than explore it as a programming language. By the end you should feel confident about writing simple postscript programs for drawing graphics and text. Further information and a complete specification of the language can be obtained from The Postscript Language Reference Manual from Adobe Systems Inc, published by Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachuchusetts, 1985. Why learn postscript, after all, many programs can generate it for you and postscript print drivers can print to a file? Some reasons might be: Having direct postscript output can often result in much more efficient postscript, postscipt that prints faster than the more generic output from printer drivers.
