MyD88TIR small wedges¶
Introduction¶
The structures of MyD88TIR domain higher-order assemblies were resolved by MicroED and SFX, providing insight into Toll-like receptor signal transduction. Details are published in this article:
DIALS was not used during the original work, but the datasets have been made public. So we can show how to use DIALS to reproduce the published results.
Data¶
The datasets for this tutorial are available online at SBGrid:
The downloaded data consists of a directory with eighteen incrementally numbered
subdirectories, 814/{1..18}
, each of which contains diffraction images from
a single crystal. We recommend doing data processing for each dataset in its
own directory, separate from the images. For example, we can create a structure
that mirrors the path to the images. From a BASH command prompt we can do that
like this:
mkdir -p dials-proc/{1..18}
Exploratory analysis¶
Before we dive in and try to process all eighteen datasets we should perform some initial investigations to get a feel for the data and ensure the metadata describing the diffraction experiments is being read correctly. We might as well take the first dataset for this. To start, we change our working directory to our processing area, and then list the contents of the dataset directory.
cd dials-proc/1
ls ../../814/1
We see that dataset 1 consists of 72 images with the extension .img
, with
filenames numbered sequentially from 00001.img
to 00072.img
. If the DIALS
programs are in the PATH
we can now check if DIALS can interpret one of these
images.
dials.show ../../814/1/00001.img
The output shows us that indeed DIALS recognises this image. Near the top of the
output we see Format class: FormatSMVTimePix_SU_516x516
, indicating that there
is even a specific image reader for this image rather than DIALS falling back on a
generic reader. That’s a good start, but if we look carefully through the rest
of the output we might spot a problem.
Detector distance¶
distance: 2.193
Those with experience with DIALS might know that laboratory space distances in
the program are measured in millimetres [*]. This is evident from an earlier line,
pixel_size:{0.055,0.055}
in which we see that the pixel size of the Timepix
detector is 0.055 mm, i.e. 55 µm, as expected.
Here we see a general problem with the SMV file format used for these images. The format definition is not rigorous, so there is no way to be sure what units are in use. Despite that fact that almost all known SMV formats use millimetres for detector distance, this is not enforced by any standard, and we have clearly found an exception.
Let’s assume the distance should be 2193 millimetres and import the full dataset:
dials.import ../../814/1/*.img distance=2193
Looking at the metadata with dials.show show.imported.expt
shows that the
distance from the headers is now overwritten to be 2193 mm. Let’s now view the
images:
dials.image_viewer imported.expt
There is a good description of functions available in the image viewer in other tutorials, such as Processing in Detail. Feel free to play with the settings. Nothing you do here will alter the experimental geometry or affect further processing.
We see from the position of the blue cross in the centre of the region of low angle scatter that the beam centre seems to be correctly recorded in the image headers.
Spot-finding¶
Finding appropriate spot-finding settings can be challenging for some electron diffraction
datasets with commonly-used types of integrating detectors. However, in this case
the Timepix is a counting detector with a gain of 1.0, avoiding issues with
improperly-modelled detector response. The default spot-finding settings as used
for X-ray photon counting detectors are also appropriate here. We can view the
effect of these settings in the dials.image_viewer.
In this case we have ticked the box next to Threshold pixels
in the Settings
panel to show a diffraction image with the strong pixels marked up with a red
overlay.
The strong diffraction spots are clearly being found, but we also see that
a big region of inelastic scatter around the direct beam
is picked up by the spot-finding algorithm. This might cause problems with
indexing. By using the Resolution
reading at the bottom of the image viewer
we see that most of this occurs within a d-spacing of 20 Å or higher, so we’ll
exclude that, but otherwise leave spot-finding settings as default:
dials.find_spots imported.expt d_max=20
The log shows the number of strong pixels found on each image, and then the number of spots these form, followed by how many make it through various filtering steps. The log ends with an ASCII-art histogram:
Histogram of per-image spot count for imageset 0:
633 spots found on 72 images (max 26 / bin)

1 image 72
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With X-ray datasets this histogram can often be used as a quick assessment of radiation damage. With electron diffraction that can be more difficult, both because the total rotation angle for the scan is usually smaller and because the Ewald sphere for electron diffraction is very flat. This means that the variability of this plot is rather high. Some orientations are close to zone axes and have many spots in the diffracting condition, whereas other orientations produce bands of fewer spots instead. We can explore the found spots now in the image viewer with this command:
dials.image_viewer imported.expt strong.refl
Another useful viewer is the 3D dials.reciprocal_lattice_viewer, which we will now launch like this
dials.reciprocal_lattice_viewer imported.expt strong.refl
But here we see a problem. The reciprocal lattice positions do not make a clean lattice. Here we have oriented the view down the putative rotation axis and instead of seeing separate spots we see arcs of points around that axis.
Tilt axis orientation¶
The diffraction geometry metadata printed by dials.show imported.expt
suggests that the orientation of the rotation axis is given by
Rotation axis: {0.782563,-0.622571,0}
But should we trust this? DIALS can search for the correct rotation axis like this:
dials.find_rotation_axis imported.expt strong.refl
This runs three levels of search: a global search, a local search and then a
fine-search. The optimised rotation axis is written to a few file, optimised.expt
and printed at the end of the log:
Rotation axis: {-0.627963,-0.778243,0}
We can view the new rotation axis by opening optimised.expt
in the image viewer
and clicking on the “Rotation axis” checkbox.
Now let’s view the reciprocal lattice:
dials.reciprocal_lattice_viewer optimised.expt strong.refl
Using the mouse we can rotate and zoom this view, and can easily find directions showing a well-ordered lattice. This gives us confidence that indexing will be successful.
Indexing¶
During indexing we will find a lattice and then refine the diffraction geometry
to better fit the observed spots. One major difference between electron and X-ray
diffraction is that the wavelength is much shorter (0.0251 Å in this case
compared to ~1 Å typical for X-rays). As a result, the Ewald sphere is rather
flat for electron diffraction and can be approximated by an “Ewald plane”. A
side effect of this is that simultaneous refinement of the detector distance and
the unit cell parameters is hardly possible. Changes in the distance can be offset
by a scaling of the cell volume with negligible
differences in the predicted spot positions. To avoid refinement wandering off
to give unreasonable values for both the cell and distance, we typically fix the latter
by adding the option detector.fix=distance
to jobs that include
geometry refinement. We will otherwise do indexing using the standard 3D FFT
algorithm and other parameters as default, so the command we need is:
dials.index optimised.expt strong.refl detector.fix=distance
At the end of the log for this job we see a high proportion of indexed spots:
+------------+-------------+---------------+-------------+
| Imageset | # indexed | # unindexed | % indexed |
|------------+-------------+---------------+-------------|
| 0 | 562 | 70 | 88.9% |
+------------+-------------+---------------+-------------+
and a little further up we see that the diffraction geometry model fits the observed spots quite nicely:
RMSDs by experiment:
+-------+--------+----------+----------+------------+
| Exp | Nref | RMSD_X | RMSD_Y | RMSD_Z |
| id | | (px) | (px) | (images) |
|-------+--------+----------+----------+------------|
| 0 | 528 | 0.51747 | 0.67141 | 0.28935 |
+-------+--------+----------+----------+------------+
The RMSDs are the root mean square deviation between observed and predicted spot positions for reflections used in refinement. The positional RMSDs are less than 1 pixel in both X (fast) and Y (slow) directions on the image and the RMSD in the tilt angle direction is less than 0.3 images.
Determining lattice symmetry¶
Unless a space group is explicitly specified, dials.index will return the best fitting triclinic (\(P\ 1\)) solution. A separate program, dials.refine_bravais_settings, can then be used to analyse the lattice symmetry and suggest a higher-symmetry point group. As this also does geometry refinement, we need to ensure the detector distance remains fixed:
dials.refine_bravais_settings indexed.expt indexed.refl detector.fix=distance
In the output we see two solutions: the original triclinic solution and a centred monoclinic lattice:
Chiral space groups corresponding to each Bravais lattice:
aP: P1
mI: I2
+------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------------+----------+--------------+
| Solution | Metric fit | rmsd | min/max cc | #spots | lattice | unit_cell | volume | cb_op |
|------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------------+----------+--------------|
| * 2 | 1.4508 | 0.118 | 0.953/0.953 | 533 | mI | 64.31 37.02 115.99 90.00 104.37 90.00 | 267504 | c,a,-a+2*b-c |
| * 1 | 0 | 0.047 | -/- | 528 | aP | 37.07 61.63 64.40 72.88 89.25 73.45 | 134383 | a,b,c |
+------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------------+----------+--------------+
* = recommended solution
If we knew nothing about the crystal structure beforehand we might continue and process with this solution. However, here we are going to “cheat” slightly and look at the cell from the published paper. There it is given as
Cell dimensions
a, b, c (Å)
99.06, 31.01, 54.30
α, β, γ (°)
90.00, 107.70, 90.00
Clearly we have found a different cell! There are two issues. The first is that
dials.refine_bravais_settings
selects the \(I\ 2\) setting here because
by default, following standard practice, it favours monoclinic centred cells
that have β angles closer to 90°. To compare our solution with the published
\(C\ 2\) cell we can change that behaviour and run again:
dials.refine_bravais_settings indexed.expt indexed.refl detector.fix=distance best_monoclinic_beta=False
and with that we get
Chiral space groups corresponding to each Bravais lattice:
aP: P1
mC: C2
+------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+----------+-----------+
| Solution | Metric fit | rmsd | min/max cc | #spots | lattice | unit_cell | volume | cb_op |
|------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+----------+-----------|
| * 2 | 1.4508 | 0.118 | 0.953/0.953 | 533 | mC | 117.84 37.02 64.31 90.00 107.54 90.00 | 267504 | a-2*b,a,c |
| * 1 | 0 | 0.047 | -/- | 528 | aP | 37.07 61.63 64.40 72.88 89.25 73.45 | 134383 | a,b,c |
+------------+--------------+--------+--------------+----------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+----------+-----------+
* = recommended solution
Now at least the β angle is about what we expect! However, the a, b and c axes are all a bit too long. In fact, they are all about 20% higher than the published values. The cell volume is too large. At the introduction to Indexing we noted that the cell volume and detector distance are highly correlated. It looks like the presumed detector distance of 2193 mm is still not correct.
We will fix that in the next section, but first we have to reindex the reflections
to match the chosen Bravais lattice solution, bravais_setting_2.expt
.
To do that we take the change-of-basis operator from the solution table
and pass that into the dials.reindex
program:
dials.reindex indexed.refl change_of_basis_op=a-2*b,a,c
This creates a file reindexed.refl
that is compatible with our chosen
solution bravais_setting_2.expt
.
Refining the detector distance¶
In situations where the correct unit cell is known it is possible to refine the detector distance. We can do this by providing a restraint to the known unit cell. This allows refinement of the unit cell and detector parameters simultaneously, while pushing the cell towards its ideal values, thus breaking the degeneracy between these parameters. The strength of this “push” is adjustable, so we have control over how much we want the data or the external target to affect the refined unit cell values.
To set up a restraint we must write a file using
PHIL syntax. The interface
to restraints is a bit awkward, but having written this once, we can then copy-and-paste
it for other uses, with
changes required only to the values
and the sigmas
. So, in a text
editor, copy these lines and save the file as restraint.phil
:
refinement
{
parameterisation
{
crystal
{
unit_cell
{
restraints
{
tie_to_target
{
values=99.06,31.01,54.30,90,107.7,90
sigmas=0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01,0.01
}
}
}
}
}
}
This describes a restraint to the known cell with reasonably strong ties, given
by fairly low sigma
values.
The detector distance is defined as the distance along the most direct line to the sample, so it is also affected by “tilt” and “twist” orientation angles. These are rather poorly-defined by the positions of diffraction spots, so while we want the detector distance to refine, we choose to constraint the orientation (rotational) parameters for the detector.
dials.refine bravais_setting_2.expt reindexed.refl restraint.phil\
detector.fix=orientation scan_varying=False
We added scan_varying=False
to ensure that only “scan static” refinement is
performed, otherwise we get one round of scan static refinement followed by a
round of scan-varying refinement. The latter allows the crystal parameters to
vary across the scan, but those smoothly-changing parameters are not affected by
the restraint. In this situation, we are not trying to get a sophisticated,
varying model for the diffraction geometry, but are just trying to correct the
wrong detector distance.
At the end of the log we see that the unit cell now looks more like what we expect:
Final refined crystal model:
Crystal:
Unit cell: 99.04(4), 31.09(2), 54.29(4), 90.0, 107.71(4), 90.0
Space group: C 1 2 1
and the RMSDs still look reasonably good, so refinement appears to have been successful. We can see the new detector distance by showing the output experiments file:
dials.show refined.expt
which contains the line:
distance: 1843.57
Note
It would be prudent to repeat this procedure with all 18 datasets, but for the purposes of this tutorial we will take this value and assume it is appropriate for the other data sets. In general, it is much preferred if the detector distance is properly calibrated and stored along with the diffraction images!
We can now return to import with the correct detector distance and the rotation
axis orientation, followed by the
other steps to get back to the correctly indexed cell. We will skip the
dials.refine_bravais_settings
and dials.reindex
steps now that we have
determined the lattice symmetry, by selecting space_group=C2
during the
indexing job. This will make it easier to script these steps for the other
datasets.
dials.import ../../814/1/*.img distance=1843.57 goniometer.axis=-0.627963,-0.778243,0
dials.find_spots imported.expt d_max=20
dials.index imported.expt strong.refl detector.fix=distance\
space_group=C2 output.experiments=C2.expt output.reflections=C2.refl
Further refinement¶
After indexing we usually run dials.refine to
construct a more sophisticated model of the diffraction geometry prior to
integration. In particular, by default this will perform a round of scan-varying
refinement, in which the crystal model (unit cell and orientation) is allowed to
vary as a function of image number. For some electron diffraction datasets, for
which the direct beam position appears to drift during data collection, we
can also try to model scan-varying beam orientation, however we are not going
to try that in this tutorial. Following from the last dials.index
job, our
refinement command is:
dials.refine C2.expt C2.refl detector.fix=distance
The crystal model is printed at the end of the log:
Crystal:
Unit cell: 99.07(14), 31.124(17), 54.12(12), 90.0, 107.59(14), 90.0

{-0.0044, -0.0244, -0.0117},
{ 0.0082, -0.0002, -0.0072}}
A sampled at 73 scan points
The unit cell printed here is the static cell refined during the first
macrocycle of refinement. We can tell that there is a scan-varying cell model
as well though, from the final line, A sampled at 73 scan points
.
Integration¶
Now we have a suitable model for the experiment, we can go ahead and integrate the reflections. We won’t use any special options here.
dials.integrate refined.expt refined.refl
There is a table of output at the end of the log that provides some insight into how well this proceeded. In particular, if there are very large numbers of reflections that failed to integrate by either summation integration or profile fitting then we should investigate. In this case though, everything looks okay.

We can open the integration results in the image viewer, showing how well the reflections are centred in their integration boxes.
dials.image_viewer integrated.expt integrated.refl
Here we see that the fairly large rocking curve for the reflections means there
are many overlapping shoeboxes. However, this is fine as long as the peak regions
do not overlap. We cannot easily see this here, but the limited number of failed
profile fits tells us the peak regions are well separated. The size of the
reflection shoebox model is given towards the top of dials.integrate.log
:
Using 454 / 455 reflections for sigma calculation
Calculating E.S.D Beam Divergence.
Calculating E.S.D Reflecting Range (mosaicity).
sigma b: 0.003907 degrees
sigma m: 1.083698 degrees
At this stage we would learn much more about the quality of the data from scaling and merging. However this single dataset is very incomplete. We should try integrating all the other datasets first and including them in the scaling job.
Scripted processing¶
During the Exploratory analysis we came up with a reasonable set of processing commands for dataset 1, while figuring out incorrect or missing diffraction geometry metadata such as the detector distance and the rotation axis orientation and direction. Rather than repeat all those steps manually for the remaining datasets we will write a script to process them all in the same way. This example uses a BASH shell script on Linux, but we could do similar on other systems.
First we change to the directory above where we have been working on dataset 1, and if not already done, we’ll make separate processing directories for all the datasets
cd ..
mkdir -p {1..18}
Now we’ll use a text editor to make a file, called process.sh
for example,
and enter these lines:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
for i in {1..18}
do
cd "$i"
dials.import ../../814/"$i"/*.img goniometer.axis=-0.627963,-0.778243,0 distance=1843.57
dials.find_spots imported.expt d_max=20 d_min=2.5
dials.index imported.expt strong.refl detector.fix=distance goniometer.fix=None space_group=C2
dials.refine indexed.expt indexed.refl detector.fix=distance
dials.plot_scan_varying_model refined.expt
dials.integrate refined.expt refined.refl prediction.d_min=2.5
cd ..
done
Note we made a change compared to the processing instructions above for the first
dataset. Because we determined the rotation axis only for that dataset, it might
not be exactly right for all datasets in general. By adding the option
goniometer.fix=None
to the dials.index
we allow optimisation of the
rotation axis during diffraction geometry refinement. We now make this script
executable and run it like this:
chmod +x process.sh
./process.sh
This should run through to completion (set -e
ensures that it will stop if
any one of the jobs fails with an error) and produce 18 integrated datasets.
Scaling¶
We now want to combine the 18 datasets, scale them together, and calculate merging statistics. We will use dials.scale for this. A particularly helpful feature of this program is its capability to automatically filter out bad parts of the combined dataset using the ΔCC½ metric. By default this removes complete datasets, which is useful for snapshot and small wedge serial crystallography where we tend to consider each dataset a unit and are not paying much attention to changes within each dataset caused, for example, by radiation damage. By contrast, in this case, we’d like to try filtering individual bad images rather than complete datasets.
Also, dials.scale
optimises the error model using reflections with an
expected intensity above a particular value. For synchrotron X-ray datasets
the default of 25.0 seems to work fine, but in this case that results in
rather few reflections being used for error modelling in the the low resolution
shells, so we will decrease that value to 10.0.
mkdir -p scale
cd scale
dials.scale ../{1..18}/integrated.{expt,refl}\
filtering.method=deltacchalf\
deltacchalf.mode=image_group\
deltacchalf.group_size=1\
min_Ih=10.0\
d_max=35\
d_min=3.0
cd ..
The first three options passed to dials.scale
set up the ΔCC½ filtering,
in image_group
mode rather than the default dataset
, and we also set
the group_size
to 1 rather than the
default 10 as these datasets are rather wide-sliced. We then set the error
modelling inclusion cut-off, as explained above. Finally we set resolution limits.
The low resolution cut-off of 35 Å was chosen to remove the lowest angle reflections
in the region of high inelastic scatter, while the high resolution limit of 3.0 Å
was chosen to match the processing published in the paper.
There are many options to explore in scaling, and no claim is made here that this job is optimal! There is still much to be learned regarding the best handling of 3DED data.
At the end of the dials.scale.log
we see a table summarising the merging
statistics:
Overall Low High
High resolution limit 3.00 8.10 3.00
Low resolution limit 31.17 31.18 3.05
Completeness 77.5 74.2 77.0

dF/F 0.173
dI/s(dI) 0.811
Total observations 36662 2125 974
Total unique 2705 144 137
These, and many more, details are also saved to a HTML format report page. On Linux you can usually open this up with the command
xdg-open scale/dials.scale.html
This contains many useful plots, for example various statistics as a function of resolution:
Further processing¶
Now we have processed the 18 datasets we want to export the data for structure
solution and refinement. We can export the unmerged but scaled intensities in
MTZ format (scaled.mtz
) like this
dials.export scale/scaled.expt scale/scaled.refl
However, many downstream steps require the merged intensities, which we can
create using the dials.merge
program.
dials.merge scale/scaled.expt scale/scaled.refl
This creates the file merged.mtz
, which we can use for structure solution
by molecular replacement.

FLUX
FLUX is an architecture pattern initially designed by Facebook.
Overview
Initially FLUX was made to store mainly UI state and work tightly with ReactJS framework which allows to re-render view according to state changes.
In iOS development we are tightly bound to UIKit framework that makes it much harder to use FLUX as it was initially intended. Approach that we recommend is to use FLUX as denormalized and non-relational storage for domain objects and application state.
Features
- Unidirectional data flow
- Lightweight and testable domain layer
- Asynchronous execution
- Extendable via middlewares
Documentation
We use Jazzy to autogenerate documentation for FLUX.
You can find documentation inside docs
folder of the working copy.
Requirements
- XCode 7+
- iOS 8+
Installation
FLUX is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:
pod "FLUX"
Author
License
FLUX is available under the MIT license. See the LICENSE file for more info.


| Path::Class::File - Objects representing files |
Path::Class::File - Objects representing files
version 0.35
use Path::Class; # Exports file() by default
my $file = file('foo', 'bar.txt'); # Path::Class::File object my $file = Path::Class::File->new('foo', 'bar.txt'); # Same thing
# Stringifies to 'foo/bar.txt' on Unix, 'foo\bar.txt' on Windows, etc. print "file: $file\n";
if ($file->is_absolute) { ... } if ($file->is_relative) { ... }
my $v = $file->volume; # Could be 'C:' on Windows, empty string # on Unix, 'Macintosh HD:' on Mac OS
$file->cleanup; # Perform logical cleanup of pathname $file->resolve; # Perform physical cleanup of pathname
my $dir = $file->dir; # A Path::Class::Dir object
my $abs = $file->absolute; # Transform to absolute path my $rel = $file->relative; # Transform to relative path
The Path::Class::File
class contains functionality for manipulating
file names in a cross-platform way.
Creates a new Path::Class::File
object and returns it. The
arguments specify the path to the file. Any volume may also be
specified as the first argument, or as part of the first argument.
You can use platform-neutral syntax:
my $file = file( 'foo', 'bar', 'baz.txt' );
or platform-native syntax:
my $file = file( 'foo/bar/baz.txt' );
or a mixture of the two:
my $file = file( 'foo/bar', 'baz.txt' );
All three of the above examples create relative paths. To create an absolute path, either use the platform native syntax for doing so:
my $file = file( '/var/tmp/foo.txt' );
or use an empty string as the first argument:
my $file = file( '', 'var', 'tmp', 'foo.txt' );
If the second form seems awkward, that's somewhat intentional - paths
like /var/tmp
or \Windows
aren't cross-platform concepts in the
first place, so they probably shouldn't appear in your code if you're
trying to be cross-platform. The first form is perfectly fine,
because paths like this may come from config files, user input, or
whatever.
This method is called internally when a Path::Class::File
object is
used in a string context, so the following are equivalent:
$string = $file->stringify; $string = "$file";
Returns the volume (e.g. C:
on Windows, Macintosh HD:
on Mac OS,
etc.) of the object, if any. Otherwise, returns the empty string.
Returns the name of the file as a string, without the directory portion (if any).
Returns a list of the directory components of this file, followed by the basename.
Note: unlike $dir->components
, this method currently does not
accept any arguments to select which elements of the list will be
returned. It may do so in the future. Currently it throws an
exception if such arguments are present.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether this object represents a
directory. Not surprisingly, Path::Class::File
objects always
return false, and the Path::Class::Dir manpage objects always return true.
Returns true or false depending on whether the file refers to an
absolute path specifier (like /usr/local/foo.txt
or \Windows\Foo.txt
).
Returns true or false depending on whether the file refers to a
relative path specifier (like lib/foo.txt
or .\Foo.txt
).
Performs a logical cleanup of the file path. For instance:
my $file = file('/foo//baz/./foo.txt')->cleanup; # $file now represents '/foo/baz/foo.txt';
Performs a physical cleanup of the file path. For instance:
my $file = file('/foo/baz/../foo.txt')->resolve; # $file now represents '/foo/foo.txt', assuming no symlinks
This actually consults the filesystem to verify the validity of the path.
Returns a Path::Class::Dir
object representing the directory
containing this file.
A synonym for the dir()
method.
Returns a Path::Class::File
object representing $file
as an
absolute path. An optional argument, given as either a string or a
the Path::Class::Dir manpage object, specifies the directory to use as the base
of relativity - otherwise the current working directory will be used.
Returns a Path::Class::File
object representing $file
as a
relative path. An optional argument, given as either a string or a
Path::Class::Dir
object, specifies the directory to use as the base
of relativity - otherwise the current working directory will be used.
as_foreign($type)
Returns a Path::Class::File
object representing $file
as it would
be specified on a system of type $type
. Known types include
Unix
, Win32
, Mac
, VMS
, and OS2
, i.e. anything for which
there is a subclass of File::Spec
.
Any generated objects (subdirectories, files, parents, etc.) will also retain this type.
Returns a Path::Class::File
object representing a file as it would
be specified on a system of type $type
. Known types include
Unix
, Win32
, Mac
, VMS
, and OS2
, i.e. anything for which
there is a subclass of File::Spec
.
The arguments in @args
are the same as they would be specified in
new()
.
Passes the given arguments, including $file
, to IO::File->new
(which in turn calls IO::File->open
and returns the result
as an the IO::File manpage object. If the opening
fails, undef
is returned and $!
is set.
openr()
A shortcut for
$fh = $file->open('r') or croak "Can't read $file: $!";
openw()
A shortcut for
$fh = $file->open('w') or croak "Can't write to $file: $!";
opena()
A shortcut for
$fh = $file->open('a') or croak "Can't append to $file: $!";
Sets the modification and access time of the given file to right now,
if the file exists. If it doesn't exist, touch()
will make it
exist, and - YES! - set its modification and access time to now.
slurp()
In a scalar context, returns the contents of $file
in a string. In
a list context, returns the lines of $file
(according to how $/
is set) as a list. If the file can't be read, this method will throw
an exception.
If you want chomp()
run on each line of the file, pass a true value
for the chomp
or chomped
parameters:
my @lines = $file->slurp(chomp => 1);
You may also use the iomode
parameter to pass in an IO mode to use
when opening the file, usually IO layers (though anything accepted by
the MODE argument of open()
is accepted here). Just make sure it's
a reading mode.
my @lines = $file->slurp(iomode => ':crlf'); my $lines = $file->slurp(iomode => '<:encoding(UTF-8)');
The default iomode
is r
.
Lines can also be automatically split, mimicking the perl command-line
option -a
by using the split
parameter. If this parameter is used,
each line will be returned as an array ref.
my @lines = $file->slurp( chomp => 1, split => qr/\s*,\s*/ );
The split
parameter can only be used in a list context.
The opposite of slurp, this takes a list of strings and prints them to the file in write mode. If the file can't be written to, this method will throw an exception.
The content to be written can be either an array ref or a plain scalar. If the content is an array ref then each entry in the array will be written to the file.
You may use the iomode
parameter to pass in an IO mode to use when
opening the file, just like slurp supports.
$file->spew(iomode => '>:raw', $content);
The default iomode
is w
.
Just like spew
, but, if $content is a plain scalar, appends $/
to it, or, if $content is an array ref, appends $/ to each element
of the array.
Can also take an iomode
parameter like spew
. Again, the
default iomode
is w
.
Calls the given callback on $file. This doesn't do much on its own, but see the associated documentation in the Path::Class::Dir manpage.
remove()
This method will remove the file in a way that works well on all platforms, and returns a boolean value indicating whether or not the file was successfully removed.
remove()
is better than simply calling Perl's unlink()
function,
because on some platforms (notably VMS) you actually may need to call
unlink()
several times before all versions of the file are gone -
the remove()
method handles this process for you.
stat()
Invokes File::stat::stat()
on this file and returns a
the File::stat manpage object representing the result.
lstat()
Same as stat()
, but if $file
is a symbolic link, lstat()
stats the link instead of the file the link points to.
dir_class()
Returns the class which should be used to create directory objects.
Generally overridden whenever this class is subclassed.
Copies the $file
to $dest
. It returns a the Path::Class::File manpage
object when successful, undef
otherwise.
Moves the $file
to $dest
, and updates $file
accordingly.
It returns $file
is successful, undef
otherwise.

PLANET SICK-BOY: http://www.sick-boy.com "We Put the SIN in Cinema"
Just before Suzhou River unspooled at the Toronto International Film Festival, a programmer described the film as Vertigo if it were directed by Wong Kar-Wai. It seemed like a silly statement to make and I chuckled at the comparison as the lights went down. An hour and a half later, I walked out of the theatre in a delightful daze, wondering both where Ye Lou came from and how he happened to make one of the year's best films.
The film is set in Shanghai and takes place around the city's filthy Suzhou River (hence the title). The main character in Suzhou is a hapless videographer whose identity is never revealed to the viewer. We never learn his name, and every scene he's in is filmed from his point of view. He spends his days spray-painting advertisements for his struggling business around the city, and his nights are consumed by watching videos.
The main character's lethargic nature seems to be due to a breakup with Meimei (Xun Zhou, the blind girl from The Emperor and the Assassin), a beautiful woman he met while he was filming the mermaid show at a bar for one of his clients. The film is full of flashbacks and replayed conversations, like one haunting exchange where Meimei asks him if he'll spend his whole life looking for her. He says he will, but she doesn't believe him.
A chance encounter seems to bring the main character back to life. He meets Mardar (Hongshen Jia), a bike messenger who has just been released from prison. Mardar served three years in the pokey for botching a kidnapping attempt that he and his former girlfriend concocted to extort money from her wealthy father. Not only did he end up in the clink, but his ex took a header off a bridge into the murky Suzhou after telling him that she'd come back one day … as a mermaid.
If you've seen Vertigo, you can probably figure out that Mardar thinks Meimei is his girlfriend (she's also played by Zhou). Although writer/director Ye Lou swears his film wasn't meant to be like Hitchcock's classic, the parallels are unmistakable. Mardar assumes the Jimmy Stewart role, while Meimei plays the double role originally handled by Kim Novak.
Ye Lou does an amazing job of establishing the dirty, claustrophobic feel of both Shanghai and the gloomy, polluted Suzhou, which becomes just as important as any of the film's characters. You may have to go out of your way to find it, but Suzhou is a film that should definitely not be missed.

Let's try and make the basics work. How do we do things like the tutorials on Pollen markup: italicize things. How do we make links to cool things? Cool!
Observe that this call produces the same result as this call. And Pollen, when targeting HTML, can deal with attributes in the same way: this span produces the same output as this span. But watch out! If you define
a tag like we did with linky
to make links, you can't just randomly pass attributes in this way. Since linky
is expecting its first argument to be a string URL, not a list, this won't even compile: (missing )linky['((class "hidden") (href "/"))]{won't work}

There was one time of the year which was held in Raveloe to be especially suitable for a wedding. It was when the great lilacs and laburnums in the old–fashioned gardens showed their golden and purple wealth above the lichen–tinted walls, and when there were calves still young enough to want bucketfuls of fragrant milk. People were not so busy then as they must become when the full cheese–making and the mowing had set in; and besides, it was a time when a light bridal dress could be worn with comfort and seen to advantage.
Happily the sunshine fell more warmly than usual on the lilac tufts the morning that Eppie was married, for her dress was a very light one. She had often thought, though with a feeling of renunciation, that the perfection of a wedding–dress would be a white cotton, with the tiniest pink sprig at wide intervals; so that when Mrs. Godfrey Cass begged to provide one, and asked Eppie to choose what it should be, previous meditation had enabled her to give a decided answer at once.
Seen at a little distance as she walked across the churchyard and down the village, she seemed to be attired in pure white, and her hair looked like the dash of gold on a lily. One hand was on her husband's arm, and with the other she clasped the hand of her father Silas.
"You won't be giving me away, father," she had said before they went to church; "you'll only be taking Aaron to be a son to you."
Dolly Winthrop walked behind with her husband; and there ended the little bridal procession.
There were many eyes to look at it, and Miss Priscilla Lammeter was glad that she and her father had happened to drive up to the door of the Red House just in time to see this pretty sight. They had come to keep Nancy company to–day, because Mr. Cass had had to go away to Lytherley, for special reasons. That seemed to be a pity, for otherwise he might have gone, as Mr. Crackenthorp and Mr. Osgood certainly would, to look on at the wedding–feast which he had ordered at the Rainbow, naturally feeling a great interest in the weaver who had been wronged by one of his own family.
"I could ha' wished Nancy had had the luck to find a child like that and bring her up," said Priscilla to her father, as they sat in the gig; "I should ha' had something young to think of then, besides the lambs and the calves."
"Yes, my dear, yes," said Mr. Lammeter; "one feels that as one gets older. Things look dim to old folks: they'd need have some young eyes about 'em, to let 'em know the world's the same as it used to be."
Nancy came out now to welcome her father and sister; and the wedding group had passed on beyond the Red House to the humbler part of the village.
Dolly Winthrop was the first to divine that old Mr. Macey, who had been set in his arm–chair outside his own door, would expect some special notice as they passed, since he was too old to be at the wedding–feast.
"Mr. Macey's looking for a word from us," said Dolly; "he'll be hurt if we pass him and say nothing—and him so racked with rheumatiz."
So they turned aside to shake hands with the old man. He had looked forward to the occasion, and had his premeditated speech.
"Well, Master Marner," he said, in a voice that quavered a good deal, "I've lived to see my words come true. I was the first to say there was no harm in you, though your looks might be again' you; and I was the first to say you'd get your money back. And it's nothing but rightful as you should. And I'd ha' said the "Amens", and willing, at the holy matrimony; but Tookey's done it a good while now, and I hope you'll have none the worse luck."
In the open yard before the Rainbow the party of guests were already assembled, though it was still nearly an hour before the appointed feast time. But by this means they could not only enjoy the slow advent of their pleasure; they had also ample leisure to talk of Silas Marner's strange history, and arrive by due degrees at the conclusion that he had brought a blessing on himself by acting like a father to a lone motherless child. Even the farrier did not negative this sentiment: on the contrary, he took it up as peculiarly his own, and invited any hardy person present to contradict him. But he met with no contradiction; and all differences among the company were merged in a general agreement with Mr. Snell's sentiment, that when a man had deserved his good luck, it was the part of his neighbours to wish him joy.
As the bridal group approached, a hearty cheer was raised in the Rainbow yard; and Ben Winthrop, whose jokes had retained their acceptable flavour, found it agreeable to turn in there and receive congratulations; not requiring the proposed interval of quiet at the Stone–pits before joining the company.
Eppie had a larger garden than she had ever expected there now; and in other ways there had been alterations at the expense of Mr. Cass, the landlord, to suit Silas's larger family. For he and Eppie had declared that they would rather stay at the Stone–pits than go to any new home. The garden was fenced with stones on two sides, but in front there was an open fence, through which the flowers shone with answering gladness, as the four united people came within sight of them.
"O father," said Eppie, "what a pretty home ours is! I think nobody could be happier than we are."

The Contrafabulists monitor predictions that technologists and marketers make each week about the future of technology:
“The Language of Dolphins Could Be Translated by 2021,” according to Futurism, which should probably note in the fine print that when it says AI has mastered 40 languages, it doesn’t really mean mastered. Paging William Gibson for this one, because you know the dolphin AI applications are un-good.
“IoT to Represent More Than Half of Connected Device Landscape by 2021,” says Campus Technology, repeating PR from Cisco, which has absolutely zero stake in connectivity I’m sure.

Peter Andre disappoints fans over new job hosting Miss World beauty pageant
The Miss World beauty pageant is coming to London and Peter Andre's fans aren't impressed that the Mysterious Girl hitmaker is hosting
by Sara-Aisha Kent, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/sara-aisha-kent/Peter Andre fans are not too impressed with his latest presenting gig.
The Insania singer, 46, came under fire from his fans after the news of him hosting the Miss World beauty pageant in London was shared by the Miss World official Twitter on Tuesday.
The pageant team announced: "We’re super excited to announce that the legendary Peter Andre is hosting #MissWorld2019 at this year’s #MissWorld Final in #London and performing #Mysteriousgirl on December 14 at ExCeL. #WeAreReady for London but is London ready for us @MrPeterAndre."
Alongside the message was a snap of handsome presenter Peter and a photo of the Miss World crowning ceremony.
Peter also shared the news by writing online: "Welcoming 120 contestants arriving in #London this week, I'm very excited to announce that I'll be PRESENTING and PERFORMING live across the globe @MissWorldLtd 2019 final on Dec 14 at ExCel London! #MissWorld #MissWorld2019 #MysteriousGirl."
He added a snap of three previous winners of the title.
Soon after, Peter was subject to scrutiny by fans who were shocked that he was working with the pageant that sees 120 women from around the world compete in categories including Sport, Talent, Top model, Head to Head Challenge and Beauty With A Purpose.
One upset fan wrote: "I am quite disappointed about the Miss World thing! Thought you were better than that Mr Andre."
Another saddened social media user added: "This is actually pretty sad."
Others quizzed: "What’s your view on those who think Miss World is an outdated institution?" and "Miss world???? Really???"
Some loyal fans were happy for the TV personality, as they offered: "A prince among queens.good luck you will be amazing" and "Whaooooo you are the perfect one to host this xx."
It comes as Peter has been forced to defend himself for playing the late Michael Jackson in a controversial musical about him.
He received criticism for accepting the role due to the claims about Jackson molesting children during his career.
Earlier this year, a documentary called Leaving Neverland alleged that Jackson sexually abused Wade Robson and James Safechuck when they were children.
The powerful documentary left a lot of Jackson fans feeling like they could no longer listen to his music.
But speaking on Good Morning Britain, Peter insisted the musical was just "about the music".
He said: "I have always said that we've got to keep the music separate.
"The reason I say that, one is because if you're going to go there and say you can't listen to the music because there's allegations, do you listen to the music pre any supposed allegations, where do you go with it?
Someone was listening to Rihanna the other day and there was a sample of a Michael Jackson song, and she was telling me she was unsure about listening to Michael Jackson.
"So where do you draw that line?’"
He added: "This show is about the music. I always have to say that they are allegations.
"It doesn't mean there's no truth in it or you can in any way ignore it.
"But we're not at that point where we know what happened."
Jackson's estate have denied the claims against the singer, who died in 2009.

Overview
A powerful feature of the areaDetector module is the concept of
plugins. A plugin is code that is called by a driver that passes NDArray
data in a callback. Plugins can be used to process array data in real
time. Existing plugins do operations such as compute statistics
(NDPluginStats), convert data to standard asyn arrays
(NDPluginStdArrays), save data to disk (NDPluginFile), select
regions-of-interest (NDPluginROI), as well as many more. New plugins can
be written to perform specialized functions. Once a plugin is written it
will work with any areaDetector driver. Plugins have the the following
properties:
- They can execute either in a blocking mode or a non-blocking mode. In
the blocking mode the callback is executed by the driver callback
thread. In this mode the callback is guaranteed to execute for each
NDArray callback. However, it can slow down the driver, and does not
utilize the multi-core capability of modern CPUs. In the non-blocking
mode the driver callback simply places the NDArray data in a queue
that is part of the plugin. The plugin then executes the callback
code in one or more of its own threads. It removes NDArray data from
the queue, processes it, and releases the data back to the
NDArrayPool when it is done. In the non-blocking mode some additional
memory is required for the NDArray objects that are in the queue. It
is also possible to drop NDArray data if the queue is full when a
callback occurs, i.e. some callback data will not be processed. The
non-blocking mode can utilize the multi-core capabilities of modern
CPUs because each plugin is executing in its own threads. The
operation of the queue and the NDArrayPool class means that data
never needs to be copied unless it is modified, each plugin has a
pointer to the data which will continue to be valid until the last
plugin is done with it.
- They can be enabled or disabled at run time.
- They can be throttled to only execute at a limited rate. This means,
for example, that a detector can be saving data to disk at full
speed, but images can be posted to EPICS at a reduced rate.
- They can be throttled to limit their output data rate. This means,
for example, that a detector can be saving data to disk at full
speed, but images sent across the netword at a fixed network
bandwidth. The number of images/s may vary with detector ROI,
binning, and data compression.
- They can be unplugged from one driver, and plugged into another
driver at run time. For example, the NDPluginROI driver is itself a
source of NDArray data callbacks, so a file saving plugin could be
unplugged from a detector driver (where it would be saving the entire
detector), and plugged into a particular ROI, where it would just
save a portion of the detector. Similarly the NDPluginColorConvert
plugin is also a source of NDArray data callbacks. A pipeline of
plugins can be constructed, for example
NDPluginColorConvert->NDPluginROI->NDPluginStdArrays. Each stage of
this pipeline can be executing in its own threads, and on modern
multi-core processors each can be executing on its own cores.
- In non-blocking mode the maximum allowed number of threads is fixed
when the plugin is created, but the actual number of threads to use
can be changed from 1 to this upper limit at run time.
- When there are multiple threads in use it is likely that the output
NDArrays will not be in the correct order of ascending values of
NDArray::UniqueId because each thread is processing asynchronously.
All plugins therefore have an option to sort the output arrays before
sending them. This comes at the expense of an increase in memory use
and latency between the input and output arrays.
- Plugins store the last input array so they can be processed again
with different settings without waiting for a new input array to
arrive.

Welcome back to Code Tips!
Today I would like to remind you about importance of using componentWillUnmount component lifecycle hook. From docs: componentWillUnmount() is invoked immediately before a component is unmounted and destroyed and it's usually used for any necessary cleanup, such as cleaning up any subscriptions that were created in componentDidMount().
Our carousel shared component can be good example, so having addEventListener subscription in componentDidMount
Should be supported by componentWillUnmount lifecycle hook with removeEventListener, cleaning listeners when component is removed/destroyed:
Let's keep our codebase clean, tidy and don't reinvent wheels! Have a good day!

This snap was shot when I was a complete new-born at photography. I had just about managed to grasp the basics - the theory at least (the thing about letting maximum light onto the sensor - and adjusting shutter speed, aperture value & ISO to achieve this).
Considering that it was one of my very initial "good" shots, I was undoubtedly thrilled at the outcome. What I do like is the overall crispiness in the photo. I especially liked the "folded-hands" effect in the center of the photograph.
Improvements?

I began using a computer when I was about six years old, back when dial-up was fast and AOL was popular. My first computer was a Dell desktop, running Windows XP. I then started using my parent's laptop, another Dell, running Windows 7. In 2013, I took the leap to a Macbook Pro Retina 15" and still use the computer. I use the computer frequently, whether it is using it for homework, programming for fun, watching shows, playing video games, etc. I believe that a computer scientist does problem solving, collaborates with others, does planning and brainstorming, and of course programs. I grew up playing a lot of video games and spent a lot of time on the computer, so just wanted to study something that I enjoyed. To code different parts of a website, need to have good collaboration skills, as well as knowledge of HTML, Javascript, and SQL. In the future, I plan on using computers in the same way as I currently do, just with more experience.


Governance In Ethereum-land
Technical coordination in the Ethereum ecosystem
(plus some history of Internet governance)
Technical Standard
A formal document which establishes uniform engineering or technical criteria, methods, processes, and practices.
It takes a lot of coordination for a standard to be adopted!
Ethereum standard in use today: ERC-20
Internet standard in use today: ASCII
Live, open systems are built with technical standards
Usually changes are worked in with minimal disruption
This requires a lot of coordination!
ARPANET
- Originators worked to specify, program, and test the protocols that would run on BBN's nodes
- "RFCs" helped with coordination across long distances
- How did the internet pioneers make decisions?
- How did they deal with the stakeholders?
ARPANET in 1971
ARPANET in 1977
Early Internet Governance Culture
Historical Context
- 1950s: DARPA created to rapidly develop emerging technologies
- Trust was put in the agency in order to enable a culture of innovation, projects like ARPANET were funded
- Attracted great managers and engineers, many were hippies
- 1970s: brain drain to industry (e.g. Xerox PARC -> Adobe)
Early Internet Governance Culture
Key Traits
- Multi-stakeholder goverance
- Open process
- Favoring coordination over control
- Philosophical goal: “free and open Internet”
Early Internet Governance Culture
"We reject: kings, presidents and voting. We believe in: rough consensus and running code."
- David Clark of the IETF
Early Internet Governance Culture
At UCLA, discussions next to the "Interface Message Processor"
Internet Governance - Institutions
Appears messy, but facilitates technical responsibility
- Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
- Internet Research Task Force (IRTF)
- Internet Architecture Board (IAB)
- Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)
- Internet Society (administrative entity)
Internet Governance - Process
Described in RFC-2026
- Decisions are consensus-based
- Email lists and in-person meetings
- Steps include draft -> adoption as a Standard -> publishing
- Extensive process/culture for conflict resolution
Internet Governance - Technical Leadership
How crucial is technical leadership?
Internet Governance - Technical Leadership

Is standards-building different in Ethereum-land?
"Internet" vs. "Open, Public Blockchains"
- Network Protocols, Data Formats
- Security Concerns
- End-users
- Valuable, live infrastructure
- Philosophical goals
- Navigating power structures
Is Ethereum standards-building different?
- Uncensorable, open network w/ adamant data
- Thousands of users, billions of dollars depend on it working (not different)
- Controversy and drama (not different from IETF drama)
- Long road from proposal, to prototype, to testing, to deployment (not different)
- ETH is Money
Opportunities to contribute
- Open process to "manage the commons"
- Anyone can propose! There is no "membership required"
- Proposals often get expert input
- Documenting previous work, building prototypes, etc. highly appreciated
Standards in constant use today
ERC-20: Specifying a tradeable token
EIP: Ethereum Improvement Proposal
EIPs describe standards for the Ethereum platform, including core protocol specs, client APIs, and contract standards.
ERCs
A type of EIP which describes application-level standards and conventions, including contract standards.
Core EIPs
A type of EIP which requires a consensus fork!
DeFi-related proposals
Like the protocol itself, each DeFi system has a community with its own process, proposals, and culture.
Core Governance: From proposal to mainnet
- Conceptualization / "primordial soup"
- The EIP workflow
- The network upgrade process
Core Governance: EIP workflow
- Goal: create high quality proposals, evaluated by the community
- Sketching out the idea, submitting the document (EIP Editors)
- The proposer seeks competent input (Magicians' Forum)
- The proposer seeks buy-in from stakeholders
Core Governance: EIP workflow
The EIPs are in a git repo!
"Because the EIPs are maintained as text files in a versioned repository, their revision history is the historical record of the feature proposal."
https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs
Core Governance: EIP workflow
EIP-1: Process and Template
Start by reading over "EIP-1"!
The Core EIP and upgrade process was recently improved by the Ethereum Cat Herders, however the ERC process remains the same.

On my Ubuntu 6.10 system the easy way to create an ISO image file is as follows:
- Insert the CD (or DVD) into the drive. A CD icon should appear on the desktop after it auto mounts
- Right click on the desktop icon and from the pop up menu select "Copy Disc..."
- On the small dialogue that appears the "Copy disc to:" field probably displays the CD/DVD writer drive. Change it to "File Image".
- To make a direct CD/DVD media copy on a blank disk leave the field set to the writer drive.
- Select the "Write" button
- On the next screen modify the file name (keep the ISO file suffix) and directory name as required.
- Select "OK"
The copy starts.

Andy and Kurt join Corey via Skype one last time. Next week, we'll be back and recording in our normal manner. In this episode, we talk about some of the stuff going on in the Cubs' minor league system. We discuss Sean Marshall's role on this team and the idea of the Cubs moving him. Darwin Barney draws some comparisons to Ryan Theriot and we talk about whether that's an accurate accusation.
Kurt gives us his Scary Stat of the Week and we pick a winner for this week's photo caption contest.


While performing a pentest, if you discover a server running the SMB protocol you can test if it’s vulnerable to anonymous connection (also called null session) and then glean a lot of informations with a RPC client. Nmap is usefull to locate that kind of service:
Now you can try to interact with the remote machine with the help of rpcclient. To perform a null session you have to specify an empty user and an empty password. If the host is not vulnerable, you will get the following error:
$ rpcclient -U "" <IP_ADDRESS>
Enter 's password:
could not initialise lsa pipe. Error was NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
could not obtain sid for domain WORKGROUP
error: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
But if the host is vulnerable you will immediatly get a prompt:
$ rpcclient -U "" <IP_ADDRESS>
Enter 's password:
rpcclient $>
If you connect successfully, you can use help to see the list of available commands (anyway tab works for autocompletion). Below some examples of the most used.

| coord_map {ggplot2} | R Documentation |
coord_map()
projects a portion of the earth, which is approximately
spherical, onto a flat 2D plane using any projection defined by the
mapproj
package. Map projections do not, in general, preserve straight
lines, so this requires considerable computation. coord_quickmap
is a
quick approximation that does preserve straight lines. It works best for
smaller areas closer to the equator.
coord_map( projection = "mercator", ..., parameters = NULL, orientation = NULL, xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, clip = "on" ) coord_quickmap(xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, expand = TRUE, clip = "on")

In general, map projections must account for the fact that the actual length
(in km) of one degree of longitude varies between the equator and the pole.
Near the equator, the ratio between the lengths of one degree of latitude and
one degree of longitude is approximately 1. Near the pole, it tends
towards infinity because the length of one degree of longitude tends towards
0. For regions that span only a few degrees and are not too close to the
poles, setting the aspect ratio of the plot to the appropriate lat/lon ratio
approximates the usual mercator projection. This is what
coord_quickmap()
does, and is much faster (particularly for complex
plots like geom_tile()
) at the expense of correctness.

21
1 The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD;
he turns it wherever he will.
2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,
but the LORD weighs the heart.
3 To do righteousness and justice
is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
4 Haughty eyes and a proud heart,
the lamp of the wicked, are sin.
5 The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance,
but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.
6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue
is a fleeting vapor and a snare of death.
7 The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,
because they refuse to do what is just.
8 The way of the guilty is crooked,
but the conduct of the pure is upright.
9 It is better to live in a corner of the housetop
than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.
10 The soul of the wicked desires evil;
his neighbor finds no mercy in his eyes.
11 When a scoffer is punished, the simple becomes wise;
when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.
12 The Righteous One observes the house of the wicked;
he throws the wicked down to ruin.
13 Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor
will himself call out and not be answered.
14 A gift in secret averts anger,
and a concealed bribe, strong wrath.
15 When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous
but terror to evildoers.
16 One who wanders from the way of good sense
will rest in the assembly of the dead.
17 Whoever loves pleasure will be a poor man;
he who loves wine and oil will not be rich.
18 The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,
and the traitor for the upright.
19 It is better to live in a desert land
than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman.
20 Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling,
but a foolish man devours it.
21 Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life, righteousness, and honor.
22 A wise man scales the city of the mighty
and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.
23 Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue
keeps himself out of trouble.
24 “Scoffer” is the name of the arrogant, haughty man
who acts with arrogant pride.
25 The desire of the sluggard kills him,
for his hands refuse to labor.
26 All day long he craves and craves,
but the righteous gives and does not hold back.
27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination;
how much more when he brings it with evil intent.
28 A false witness will perish,
but the word of a man who hears will endure.
29 A wicked man puts on a bold face,
but the upright gives thought to his ways.
30 No wisdom, no understanding, no counsel
can avail against the LORD.
31 The horse is made ready for the day of battle,
but the victory belongs to the LORD.

The characters of the string are output in order.
If printer escaping is enabled,
a double-quote is output before and after, and all double-quotes and single escapes are preceded by backslash. The printing of strings is not affected by *print-array*. Only the active elements of the string are printed.
