The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, June 12. The meeting topic for this month is as follows:
Perl PDF::Reuse
Brad Vokey will give a brief demonstration of how to mass produce similar (but not identical) PDF documents in Perl by re-using a starting PDF file as a template. Perl::Reuse is very fast, and gives you the capacity to produce many PDF pages per second creating very big PDF documents if necessary.
RTFM: Pioneer
Pioneer - A game of lonely space adventure - will be demonstrated by Trevor Cordes. Not just a game, Pioneer is a full-blown space simulator with realistic Newtonian physics. After you figure out how to not crash into planets or over-shoot space stations by mega-kms; explore the planets and other star systems, work as a trader to make a few bucks, or arm up and become a pirate or assassin. Beautiful spacescapes make this a demo worth seeing!
The group holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend.
