[18:21] (why me specifically?) Easiest way is probably Image->Mode->greyscale [18:21] though you can also use the hue-saturation dialog or lots of other methods [18:21] thanx, didn't see that [18:22] is there an integrated SANE frontend? [18:23] There's the xsane plug-in -- not sure if that's what you're asking. It's what I use for scanning. [18:24] which menu is that in? [18:27] nvm, found it [19:15] greg-g, wow! i'm amazed that even worked with my sans font [19:28] scientes: searching for ascii bouquet worked :) [19:28] * greg-g didn't make that [19:32] ...:::::::... ...:::::::...

[22:33] I actually don't, had to muddle it out and be helped by pleia2 and maco :) [22:34] and the syntax didn't seem to work anyway, as it turned out. [23:01] we were trying to list all the alternatives last night [23:01] i poked at that dumb command for a while before giving up and ls -l /etc/alternatives [23:02] haha, awesome. you touch them directly too :) [23:02] Yeah, that worked a lot better than the command. [23:03] get-selections, eh? i was trying variations on --list —all [23:03] It took me a long time to figure out --get-selections was what I needed. [23:04] The man page is ... poor (choosing a more polite word than my first inclination). [23:04] What a table-flippingly bad command [23:04] the most complicated thing i tried to do with it before was change editor. i guess it was okay at that.
