Fucking Settings app is garbage. Search "modifiers" no results. Find it in Keyboard, Shortcuts, bottom of the list, so I can have capslock=ctrl like a sane person.

Haven't named it yet. All my computers are fictional places or ships. Was kinda thinking either very cutesy like "PoohCorner", or dark and ominous, maybe "Demeter" or "Nostromo". I don't know any really iconic ships of late.

Have settled on Revenger. It just has that slightly deranged little girl with ghost knives feel.

Finally figured out that the Force Click and Look Up trackpad settings are why I couldn't drag & drop. Got those off and hey, this is a perfectly usable non-mouse!

Got my home dir & bin dir moved, but not recompiled.

Also played some Luanti and it's possible but really scary to do anything on trackpad, I'll have to find a spare mouse, good mouse is staying on the old Mac for now.

Safari no longer has an "Import Bookmarks" command. You can import automatically from another browser, but what you're supposed to do is sync over iCloud. Which I turned off on my old Mac.

… So now I have old bookmarks on new Mac, and I exported a good list, but I'm waiting to see if iCloud figures it out and updates.

If all else fails, I may be able to just replace a file in Library? Or do I have to import into Firefuck or whatever, then let Safari pull from it?

Automation sucks.

Finally solved by: Copy bookmarks.html to new Mac. Install & run Firefox (ew). Import. Quit. Open Safari. Import from Browser.

Now delete a bunch of duplicate dirs. Hope it syncs up from this and doesn't overwrite, who knows with iCloud.

Resolve to avoid installing a shitload of things in MacPorts lasted a day.

I need multimarkdown…
EDIT: do not install wkhtmltopdf from homebrew, it has a broken fucking QT!!!

Now investigating some shit with weasyprint.

But I'm resisting homebrew, that shit can fuck off into a hole.

OK, weasyprint works
https://doc.courtbouillon.org/weasyprint/stable/first_steps.html#

Actual way I installed:
sudo python3 -m pip install weasyprint
sudo port install pango

Works:

python3 -m weasyprint foo.html foo.pdf

Well, sorta, does different layout than I'm used to. So now any book will need relayout? Maybe not too much.

ALSO, latest multimarkdown is being bitchy about
----
## header

Wants an extra newline between. AYFKM?

OK, aside from no table of contents or JS (which I don't use TOO much?), I'm working again, including page numbering in CSS!!!

cat <<CSSEND >"$TMP/md.css"
@page { size: $pageSize; width: $pageWidth; height: $pageHeight;
margin: 0.25in;
margin-bottom: 0.5in;
counter-increment: page 1;
@bottom-center {
content: "— " counter(page) " —";
}
}
CSSEND

python3 -m weasyprint -p -s "$TMP/md.css" "$dir/$outfile.html" "$dir/$outfile.pdf"

\o/ Flawless victory!
#html #css #pdf

Getting ready to move my Code folder over. Found a half-dozen node_modules dirs, a bunch of built binaries for old projects, etc.

A fat Unity dir, which I'm unlikely to use again? Moved to desktop for final triage.

On both old Mac & new, in zsh,
LC_COLLATE=
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

But on old Mac, ls sorts as if LC_COLLATE=C
new Mac, case-insensitive, but not Mac native sort (numbers are 1, 10, 11, etc.)

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.
