Ceci est une ancienne révision du document !


Welcome to the latest issue of Full Circle.

Once again, we have Python, Inkscape, Kodi, a game review, and the final part in our FreePascal series. A new series (from yours truly) starts this month: Kdenlive.

As some of you may know I've been regularly updating my YouTube channel with board gaming videos (and some art stuff). Doing YouTube videos means getting familiar with video editing, and video editing is a touchy subject in Linux. Yes, there are quite a few video editors out there, but most are either too simplistic, or missing features. To me, Kdenlive is the one that is the best of the bunch.

This month's issue contains what is, quite probably, the most unusual article in FCM's illustrious history. Charles' Linux Lab article is written audibly. Yes, Charles sat down with some speech to text software and wrote his article using it. Most of the mistakes made from the speech to text conversion are kept intact, and on purpose. It's an interesting article and definitely worth a read. Some readers out there may, for whatever reason, find typing difficult, so a speech to text application could come in handy for them. Speech to text has certainly come a long way since the early days of Dragon Dictate on Windows. Although, having said that, I personally may give it a try as quite a lot of speech recognition software fails miserably with my Scottish accent. I'm looking at you Google and Amazon (Echo).

I've set up a poll which I hope you'll fill in. It's located at: https://goo.gl/Q8Jm4S. I'm interested in what you like/dislike about FCM. What I can change/add, and anything else you want to add. I'll publish the results in a future issue.

All the best, and keep in touch! Ronnie ronnie@fullcirclemagazine.org
