An Unnecessary Image Ratio Calculator
|
||||
====================================================
|
||||
|
||||
You can either say the acronym ``U I R C`` or, as I've been doing, pronouncing it as ``work``.
|
||||
|
||||
What is this?
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Well, it's an unnecessary image ratio calculator.
|
||||
|
||||
It takes an image as an argument in the form of a file on the local file system or a link to an image on a web server, and returns the ratio of the image. That's literally it.
|
||||
|
||||
Why does this exist?
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The reason UIRC exists is actually the combination of two events:
|
||||
|
||||
1. I've recently started learning more and more about the C programming language, it's history, and how nice and flirty it gets with the actual machine (maybe even making your relationship more serious if you're a psychopath). It runs my OS (Linux) and my window manager (dwm). I use it every day, and it makes me want to learn more and what it can do. Ever since I've been looking for an excuse to make a C program of my own.
|
||||
2. I was working at my on-campus job when I needed to know the ratio of an image. Being too lazy to do the math with the image's resolution and oddly hesitant to use a web tool (which I did eventually use), I switched to my terminal quickly to find the file I needed to see what the resolution was, and badda bing badda boom.
|
||||
|
||||
Born was my idea. I found an excuse to learn and code in C for an issue that is over-saturated with solutions everywhere.
|
||||
|
||||
Why should I use this?
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Don't.
|
||||
|
||||
Or you could I guess, I won't stop you. There's just *way* more convenient (and possibly easier for the command-line-illiterate) ways to find the ratio of an image. This is just an idea that I had and the excuse to get me learning how to program in C.
|
||||
|
||||
I've made my decision. How do I install?
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Ah, the UNIX community. Stubborn about always wanting to use command line tools over convenience. It just warms my heart.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to install, you must have ``make`` (installed on basically all \*nix systems) or another compatible tool installed. Then, simply run::
|
||||
|
||||
$ make install
