I wrote txtjs. Free to ask away.
- harrisreynolds 12y agoHow many times did you want to claw your eyes out when writing this? :-)
- diverted247 12y agoThere were moments in alignment support where I lost a ton of hair and brain cells. The hardest part was getting W3C compliant rendering of SVGPath on <canvas>, after that it was all downhill. Txt is live in use on: expressionery.com walmartstationery.com iprint.com

- diverted247 12y agoI wrote the beginnings of txtjs on a trip to Bonaire in June. I find I am about 2x-3x as productive writing software during surface intervals while diving than any other time. The diving forces you to relax, think, breath, and you cannot use a computer. When the dive is over, you are 3x productive and things are easier to implement. Also I dive with Nitrox with adds 10% more O2 into the tank, I end up sleeping better, less risk of n2 narcosis, longer bottom times, and I can think very clearly after a dive. It sounds absurd but I have found I will hit flow more on dive trips than any other time. Get certified: padi.com
- hyperbovine 12y agoI am, although NAUI. Diving leaves me surprisingly sleepy and unmotivated (I don't do any blended air stuff). The idea of cranking out a typesetting engine on a dive boat was a new one. :)
