Aria2 shell script and batch file

I wrote a BASH shell script and a DOS batch file that can be used to download files using aria2 — Aria2 is a command-line tool for downloading files. The script and the batch file take 2 arguments; the first one is for the bittorrent hash in 40-digit hexadecimal number and the second one is for arbitrary one-word description.

• aria2.bat
  
• aria2.sh
  

aria2.bat can be used on Windows, and aria2.sh can be used on Linux and *BSD. Make sure that aria2c is in PATH. For example, if you want to download an ISO file for the OpenSUSE DVD, you would type something like:

aria2.bat 198472f5217d843cceb1a4c82233f009ed6608af opensuse-dvd-586

To find the value of a bittorrent hash (that long hex number), you can cut it from a magnet link you find on a Web site — Magnet links allow you to download actual files without first having to download bittorrent files (*.torrent). When you see a magnet sign, right-click on it to display the shortcut menu and select Copy Link Location.

Then, paste it somewhere, for example, inside the URL address bar. The hash value comes after the btih: string.

After you find the bittorrent hash, use it as the first argument to the script and make up anything for the second argument, as shown in the example above.

Bittorrent Info Hash Values for Windows 8 ISO

Windows 8 ISO files have the following BTIH hash values. Use them with my aria2 script to download Windows 8.

1. en_windows_8_x86_dvd_915417.iso
   
   C5D92B32277685436DEDE9957B80083D26062C03
   
2. en_windows_8_x64_dvd_915440.iso

Compile Aria2 1.15.2 with MinGW

Aria2 is a command-line download utility. It can be used to download files quickly from http(s), ftp, bittorrent, magnet and metalink locations. I prefer this handy tool over other programs, such as Free Download Manager and Frostwire because it's lean, fast and full of features. It took me a couple of days to compile Aria2 with all the features available. The following step-by-step guide will help you build your own aria2 program (aria2c.exe) the way I did.

1. Install MinGW
   

   Follow one of the following guides to install MingW:

   
   
   • Setting up MinGW64 with Cygwin
     
   • Installing MinGW on Windows
   
   
   
2. POSIX Threads
   

   Download the source for Pthreads library (pthreads-w32-2-9-1-release.tar.gz) and compile it like this:

   
   

   make clean GC-static
   cp pthread.h semaphore.h sched.h /mingw/include/
   cp libpthreadGC2.a /mingw/lib/libpthread.a

   
   
   
3. zlib
   

   Zlib is needed by the OpenSSL library below. Download the zlib source and compile it like this:

   
   

   make -f win32/Makefile.gcc
   make -f win32/Makefile.gcc install BINARY_PATH=/mingw/bin INCLUDE_PATH=/mingw/include LIBRARY_PATH=/mingw/lib

   
   
   
4. OpenSSL
   

   Aria2 requires either GnuTLS or OpenSSL for secure transfers. In this guide, OpenSSL is chosen over GnuTLS. Use 7-zip to unpack the tarball because it contains symbolic links.

   
   

   ./Configure -DHAVE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC -DPTW32_STATIC_LIB -L/mingw/lib -lz -lpthread -lws2_32 --prefix=/mingw threads zlib mingw
   make
   make install

   
   
   

5. Expat

   
   

   Aria2 can use either LibXML2 or Expat for XML parsing. In this guide, Expat will be used. Download the expat source and compile expat like this:

   
   

   ./configure --build=i686-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/mingw --disable-shared --enable-static
   make 
   make install

   
   
   

6. C-Ares

   
   

   C-Ares is a C library that performs DNS requests and resolves DNS names asynchronously. Download the C-ares source from c-ares.haxx.se and unpack it. Then, compile C-Ares as follows:

   
   

   ./configure --build=i686-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/mingw --disable-shared CPPFLAGS='-I/mingw/include -DCARES_STATICLIB'
   make
   make install

   
   
   

7. SQLite 3

   
   

   Download the SQLite source (sqlite-amalgamation-3071300.zip) and build SQLite 3:

   
   

   gcc -O2 -DNDEBUG=1 -DTHREADSAFE=1 -c *.c
   ar ru /mingw/lib/libsqlite3.a sqlite3.o
   cp -iv *.h /mingw/include

   
   

   Create sqlite3.pc and put it in /mingw/lib/pkgconfig.

   
   

   prefix=/mingw
   exec_prefix=${prefix}
   libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
   includedir=${prefix}/include
   
   Name: SQLite
   Description: SQL database engine
   Version: 3.5
   
   Libs: -L${libdir} -lsqlite3
   Cflags: -I${includedir}

   
   
   

8. aria2c

   
   

   Finally, we are ready to compile Aria2. Download the Aria2 source from aria2.sf.net and unpack the source. Then, configure aria2 as follows:

   
   

   ./configure --build=i686-w64-mingw32 --prefix=/mingw --enable-threads=posix --with-ca-bundle=ca-bundle.crt --disable-nls LIBS='-lpthread -lws2_32 -lcares -lz' CPPFLAGS='-DPTW32_STATIC_LIB -DCARES_STATICLIB'
   

   
   
   
   
   

   Then, issue the following commands to compile Aria2:

   
   

   make
   make install

   
   
   
9. Optionally, strip and compress the executable aria2c.exe.
   
   

   strip aria2c.exe
   upx --best --strip-relocs=0 aria2c.exe

   
   

To download my Windows builds of aria2, go here.

Aria2c Usage

aria2c --file-allocation=prealloc ftp://192.168.1.64/pardus.iso

If aria2 aborts a download due to a connection error, you can resume the download any time using aria2c like this:

aria2c -c ftp://192.168.1.64/pardus.iso

To download files from URL's written in a file urls.txt to a folder Downloads, run aria2 as follows. The urls.txt should contain one download per line with URL's seperated by a tab:

aria2c -i urls.txt -d Downloads

Transmission-Daemon for Windows

Here are my Windows builds of transmission-daemon. I built it with Cygwin's GCC compiler. 7-zip or a newest version of unzip should be used to unpack them.

• transmission-2.60-win32.zip
  
• transmission-2.42-win32.zip

The package contains the following files:

• Cygwin1.dll
  
  Cygwin Unix layer


• transmission-cli.exe
  
  Command-line Bittorrent Client


• transmission-create.exe
  
  Create .torrent files


• transmission-daemon.exe
  
  Transmission server


• transmission-edit.exe
  
  Edit .torrent files


• transmission-remote.exe
  
  Control the transmission daemon


• transmission-show.exe
  
  Show .torrent contents

Unpack the package into a folder, for example, C:\Program Files\Transmission. Then, create a shortcut with the following command:

transmission-daemon -b -o -m -ep -a 127.0.0.1,192.168.*.* --utp

Double-clicking the shortcut will not open any window. However, transmission-daemon is silently running in the background. You can control the daemon with any Web browser by opening this local Web address:

http://127.0.0.1:9091/

Although you can control transmission-daemon with a Web browser, it's not a pretty thing to do so. I recommend using transmission-remote-dotnet or transmission-remote-gui. The following is a screenshot for Transmission Remote .NET which is written in C#.



And, below you can see Transmission Remote GUI that's written in Pascal.

The settings for the daemon are stored in the ~/.config/transmission-daemon folder. Make sure the HOME environment variable points correctly to your folder.

Also, TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME environment variable should be correctly set up to use the web browser interface.

Tools for Downloading Stuff from the Internet

You can get a variety of software, music and movies from the Internet. Some of them are legally okay to download like open-source software and free publications, but there are things you're not legally allowed to download, such as most music and movies. However, with the increasing availability of high-speed Internet and P2P software, the Internet is exponentially growing in the number of downloadable stuff.

There are so many software for downloading stuff from the Net, but only a few good ones are listed here.

gtk-gnutella for Windows

Here's my gtk-gnutella build.

• gtk-gnutella 0.98.3 for Windows
  
• GTK+ Win32 build 2.24.11 & 3.4.2
  

You may choose to install the GTK+ library and gtk-gnutella in the same folder. This means gtk-gnutella.exe and libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll are in the same place.

Create a shortcut on the desktop to the GTK-Gnutella executable. Double-click the shortcut to run gtk-gnutella.

Build GTK-gnutella on Debian 3.1 Sarge

I keep writing about Debian 3.1 Sarge which is an outdated release. Yet, Debian Sarge has some historical values. I use Sarge as the minimum base for my Internet computer. Today, I compiled GTK-gnutella on Debian Sarge. For preparation, I installed the following packages:

• gcc
  
• make
  
• zlib1g-dev
  
• libxml2-dev
  
• libgtk2.0-dev

GTK-gnutella depends on GNUtls library for secure communication. I downloaded and compiled libgpg-error, libgcrypt, libtasn and gnutls in the order. They all have the same procedure.

./configure --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --disable-shared
make
make install

Then, I unpacked gtk-gnutella source and configured it.

./Configure

Since I built gnutls statically, I had to modify src/Makefile slightly.

GNUTLS_LDFLAGS = -lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt -lgpg-error

I started compilation.

make
make install

The resulting executable depends on gtk+ 2.0 and libxml2 externally and works on Sarge, Etch, Lenny and Sid all.

Compile Aria2c on Debian Linux

Aria2 is a fast download utility that you use in the Command Prompt or xterm. To compile aria2 for Linux, install the following packages.

• ca-certificates
  
• g++
  
• make
  
• libexpat1-dev
  
• libsqlite3-dev
  
• libssl-dev
  
• zlib1g-dev

Although Debian 5.0 Lenny has libc-ares2, Debian 4.0 Etch and Debian 3.1 Sarge don't have it. As a user of Debian Sarge, I had to compile c-ares myself to enable asynchronous DNS resolution in Aria2c. I downloaded c-ares source from c-ares.haxx.se and compiled it statically.

tar xzvf c-ares-1.7.0.tar.gz

cd c-ares-1.7.0/

./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --disable-debug --disable-shared CFLAGS='-DCARES_STATICLIB'

make

make install

Then, I downloaded Aria2 source from aria2.sf.net and compiled it like this:

tar xzvf aria2-1.8.0.tar.gz

cd aria2-1.8.0

./configure --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --enable-bittorrent --enable-metalink --enable-threads=posix --with-ca-bundle="/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt" LIBS='-lrt -lcares' CPPFLAGS='-DCARES_STATICLIB'

You can optionally link aria2 with static libraries libssl and libcrypto. This is useful when you move aria2c to another system with a different version of OpenSSL library. To do so, open every Makefile in the aria2 source directory and change every line containing “-L/usr/local/lib -lssl -lcrypto” to “/usr/lib/libssl.a /usr/lib/libcrypto.a”. Then, run the following commands to build aria2.

make
make install

An executable /usr/bin/aria2c will be installed. To use it, open a xterm or rxvt and type its command. To see brief command-line options, type aria2c -h.

To Compile aMule 2.2.6 on Debian 3.1 Sarge

aMule is a peer-to-peer file-sharing application. Although ed2k networks that aMule connects to have been shrinking in popularity, I prefer aMule over Bittorrent clients for its ability to create serverless P2P network (Kademlia). The aMule backported package for Debian 3.1 Sarge is outdated, so I compiled the latest version 2.2.6 of aMule on Debian Sarge. I installed the following packages first.

• binutils-dev
  
• bison
  
• flex
  
• g77
  
• g++
  
• gettext
  
• make
  
• libcrypto++-dev
  
• libgd2-noxpm-dev (or libgd2-xpm-dev)
  
• libgeoip-dev
  
• libgtk2.0-dev
  
• libjpeg62-dev
  
• libpng12-dev
  
• libreadline5-dev
  
• libsm-dev
  
• libtiff4-dev
  
• libxpm-dev

aMule depends on wxGTK library, but wxGTK library in Debian Sarge is also outdated. So I downloaded the latest wxGTK source (wxGTK-2.8.10.tar.gz) from wxwidgets.org. I compiled wxGTK in the following way. The --disable-shared option causes a static library to be built. This allows me to install aMule on another system without having to install a separate wxGTK library.

tar xzvf wxGTK-2.8.10.tar.gz

cd wxGTK-2.8.10/

mkdir buildgtk

cd buildgtk

../configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --enable-monolithic --enable-optimise --enable-intl --enable-unicode --enable-threads --enable-mousewheel --with-gtk=2 --with-libpng --with-libjpeg --with-libtiff --with-libxpm --with-regex --with-zlib --with-expat --disable-shared --disable-abi-incompatible-features --disable-no_rtti --disable-no_exceptions --disable-joystick --disable-compat24

make

make install

aMule can use libupnp if available. I downloaded libupnp-1.6.6.tar.bz2 from pupnp.sf.net and compiled it statically like this:

tar xjvf libupnp-1.6.6.tar.bz2

cd libupnp-1.6.6/

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --disable-shared

make

make install

Then, I built aMule in the following way.

tar xjvf aMule-2.2.6.tar.bz2

cd aMule-2.2.6/

./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --enable-amule-daemon --enable-amulecmd --enable-webserver --enable-cas --enable-wxcas --enable-alc --enable-alcc --enable-geoip --disable-debug --enable-optimize

make

make install

MinGW: Building aMule for Windows

aMule is a peer-to-peer file-sharing program for Windows, Linux, Mac and *BSD. aMule can be used to share files with users of eMule. This post describes the steps I took in building aMule for Windows.

1. First, install MinGW as shown in this post. Download pkg-config.exe and save it in /mingw/bin:

   
   
   
2. Install Strawberry Perl or ActivePerl. If you've already unpacked aMule source, open src/libs/ec/file_generator.perl with a text editor and modify the first line. If ActivePerl is installed:
   

   #!/c/Perl/bin/perl

   
   

   If Strawberry Perl is installed:

   
   

   #!/c/strawberry/perl/bin/perl

   
   
   
3. Download the Zlib source (zlib125.zip) and unpack it with unzip or 7zip. Then, compile Zlib like this:
   
   

   cd zlib-1.2.5/ 
   make -f win32/Makefile.gcc

   
   

   Manually copy the files as follows:

   
   

   cp -iv zlib1.dll /mingw/bin
   cp -iv zconf.h zlib.h /mingw/include
   cp -iv libz.a /mingw/lib
   cp -iv libzdll.a /mingw/lib/libz.dll.a

   
   
   

4. Build wxMSW statically and monolithically as shown in this post. Alternatively, you can also build wxMSW as shared library.

   
   
   
5. Download Crypto++ source (cryptopp560.zip) and extract it into a new folder:
   

   mkdir cryptopp
   cd cryptopp
   unzip ../cryptopp560.zip

   
   

   Prior to compiling Crypto++, I changed the line that define PREFIX at the beginning of GNUmakefile:

   
   

   # Default prefix for make install
   
   ifeq ($(PREFIX),)
   
   PREFIX = /mingw
   
   endif

   
   

   Then, I compiled Crypto++ with this command:

   
   

   make -f GNUmakefile

   
   

   Compile stopped on rijndael.cpp with the error: 'alloca' was not declared in this scope. So I added #include <malloc.h> to the beginning of rijndael.cpp and resumed make -f GNUmakefile. After make finished, I installed Crypto++ by typing:

   
   

   make -f GNUmakefile install

   
   

   The following files are installed under /mingw:

   
   

   bin/cryptest.exe
   
   include/cryptopp/
   
   lib/libcryptopp.a

   
   
6. Download GeoIP source from here. Compile GeoIP like this:
   
   

   ./configure --prefix=/mingw LDFLAGS="-L/mingw/lib -lws2_32 -lz"
   
   make
   
   make install

   
   

   The following files are installed.

   
   

   include/GeoIP.h
   include/GeoIPCity.h
   /include/GeoIPUpdate.h
   lib/libGeoIP.a
   lib/libGeoIP.la
   lib/libGeoIPUpdate.a
   lib/libGeoIPUpdate.la

   
   

   I created GeoIP.dll as follows:

   
   

   cd libGeoIP/.libs
   
   mkdir ws2_32
   
   cd ws2_32
   
   ar x /mingw/lib/libws2_32.a
   
   cd ..
   
   dllwrap --export-all-symbols --add-stdcall-alias -o GEOIP.DLL --dllname
   GEOIP.DLL GeoIP.o GeoIPCity.o regionName.o timeZone.o ws2_32/dkrgs00086.o ws2_32/dkrgs00082.o ws2_32/dkrgs00081.o -L/mingw/lib -lws2_32 -lz

   
   

   Then, I created an import library for GeoIP.dll like this:

   
   

   echo EXPORTS > geoip.def
   
   nm GEOIP.DLL | grep ' T _' | sed 's/.* T _//' | grep -i geoip >> geoip.def
   
   dlltool --def geoip.def --dllname GEOIP.DLL --output-lib libgeoip.dll.a

   
   

   Move GEOIP.DLL to /mingw/bin and libgeoip.dll.a to /mingw/lib. Then, modify /mingw/lib/libGeoIP.la as necessary.

   
   
   

   # The name that we can dlopen(3).
   dlname='../bin/GEOIP.DLL'
   
   # Names of this library.
   library_names='libgeoip.dll.a'

   
   
   

7. Build GNU regex library as shown in this post.

   
   
   
8. Get the latest libiconv source (libiconv-1.13.1.tar.gz) and compile it like this:
   

   ./configure --prefix=/mingw --disable-shared
   make
   make install

   
   

   Then, get the latest gettext source (gettext-0.17.tar.gz) and compile it as follows:

   
   

   ./configure --prefix=/mingw --enable-threads=win32 --enable-relocatable --disable-shared
   
   cd gettext-runtime
   
   make
   
   make install

   
   
   

9. Get the aMule source and unpack it. I compiled aMule like this:

   
   

   ./configure --prefix=/mingw --enable-geoip --enable-amulecmd --enable-alc --enable-alcc --enable-nls --enable-rpath --enable-optimize --disable-debug
   
   make
   
   make install

   
   

   aMule installs the following files under /mingw:

   
   

   bin/amule.exe
   bin/autostart-xas
   bin/ed2k.exe
   lib/xchat/plugins/xas.pl

   To save disk space, you may choose to make the executable files smaller by running this command: strip *.exe

   
   
10. aMule uses GeoIP data if it is built with GeoIP support. You can copy GeoIP.dat from the GeoIP source package to the aMule folder.
    
11. Installing aMule is easy even without an installer. Just copy aMule and its files into a new folder, for example C:\Program Files\aMule. To create a shortcut in the Start menu, go to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu and create a shortcut there.

Building gtk-gnutella for Windows

I built gtk-gnutella for the Windows platform using MinGW. gtk-gnutella is an application that allows you to share files in the gnutella P2P network. Here I show how I built GTK-gnutella step-by-step:

1. Install MinGW

   
   

   First of all, I installed MinGW. GCC 4.4 and higher versions are recommended.

   
   
   

2. Compile Pthread and Regex (Optional)

   
   

   Build pthread and regex as shown in the following posts.

   
   
   
   
   • MinGW: Posix Threads for Win32
   
   
   • MinGW: Porting GNU Regex to Windows
   
   
   
   
   

3. Build GTK+ Library

   
   

   Follow the instruction in the following post to compile the whole GTK+ library.

   
   
   • Compiling GTK+ for Windows with MinGW (for Windows XP and up)
   
   
   

4. Build GnuTLS (Optional)

   
   

   I think GnuTLS is optional but it provides secure communication between gnutella clients. I chose to build GTK-gnutella with gnuTLS features. So I compiled GnuTLS as shown in this post.

   
   
   

5. Unpack the Source

   
   

   Then, I downloaded the gtk-gnutella source and unpacked it in my HOME directory.

   
   

   cd $HOME
   
   tar xjvf gtk-gnutella-0.96.6.tar.bz2
   
   cd gtk-gnutella-0.96.6

   
   
   

6. Run the Configure script

   
   

   Then, I ran ./Configure. For convenience, I am providing here my config.sh file generated by the Configure script. You can copy this file to your source tree before running the Configure script.

   
   

   #!/bin/sh
   #
   # This file was produced by running the Configure script. It holds all the
   # definitions figured out by Configure. Should you modify one of these values,
   # do not forget to propagate your changes by running "Configure -der". You may
   # instead choose to run each of the .SH files by yourself, or "Configure -S".
   #
   
   # Package name      : gtk-gnutella
   # Source directory  : .
   # Configuration time: Wed Aug 15 14:50:53 HST 2012

   Alternatively, if your config.sh needs no modification, just run the following commands.

   
   

   ./Configure -S
   make depend

   
   
   
7. Before running make, open src/Makefile and insert -mwindows into the gtk-gnutella section:



gtk-gnutella:  $(OBJ) $(EXTRA)
        $(RM) $@
        if test -f $@$(_EXE); then \
                $(MV) $@$(_EXE) $@~$(_EXE); fi
        $(CC) -o $@  $(OBJ) $(EXTRA) -mwindows $(JLDFLAGS) $(LIBS)




This prevents GTK-gnutella from outputting error logs to a black console window.





8. Then, I compiled gtk-gnutella with the following commands:

   
   

   make
   
   make install

   
   
   

Building FAAC, XviD, GPAC and OGMRip

MPlayer Series

1. Preparing for MPlayer Compilation
   
2. To Compile MPlayer for Windows
   
3. Compiling MPlayer for Linux
   
4. Compiling Mencoder for Windows
   
5. SMPlayer, the Ultimate Movie Player
   

After building MPlayer and Mencoder for Linux, the last fun part is to build OGMRip so that we can rip movies into AVI or MP4 files as found on the P2P networks. OGMRip is a graphical movie convertor that uses MPlayer and Mencoder to convert a movie into another format.

Building FAAC

First, let's compile FAAC as it is needed to encode AAC audio. You need a g++ compiler, autoconf, automake and tcl-dev to compile FAAC, following a typical procedure:

./bootstrap
./configure --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --with-mp4v2
make
make install

The bootstrap command produces the configure script and Makefile necessary for the build procedure. The following set of files are generated upon compilation of FAAC:

/usr/bin/faac
/usr/include/faac.h
/usr/include/faaccfg.h
/usr/lib/libfaac.a
/usr/lib/libfaac.la
/usr/lib/libfaac.so
/usr/lib/libfaac.so.0
/usr/lib/libfaac.so.0.0.0
/usr/man/man1/faac.1.gz

Building XviD library

Now, let's build the XviD library. XviD is a popular video codec. A typical build procedure for XviD looks like this:

tar xzf xvidcore-1.2.2.tar.gz
cd xvidcore/build/generic
./configure --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr
make
make install

Upon successful compilation, the following set of files are installed on system.

/usr/lib/libxvidcore.a
/usr/include/xvid.h
/usr/lib/libxvidcore.so
/usr/lib/libxvidcore.so.4
/usr/lib/libxvidcore.so.4.1

Building GPAC

Next, let's compile GPAC which is an open-source MPEG-4 encoder. Before compiling GPAC, install the following developer libraries, most of which are optional:

liba52-0.7.4-dev
libasound2-dev
libavformat-dev
libfaad-dev
libmad0-dev
libmozjs-dev
libogg-dev
libopenjpeg-dev
libssl-dev
libtheora-dev
libvorbis-dev
libwxgtk2.8-0
libxvidcore4

Then, compile GPAC as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --cpu=i586 --enable-pic --strip --use-ffmpeg=local --use-js=local

make

make install

When GPAC is compiled and installed successfully, the following set of files are generated on the system:

/usr/bin/MP4Box
/usr/bin/MP4Client
/usr/bin/Osmo4
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_aac_in.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_ac3_in.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_alsa.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_bifs_dec.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_ctx_load.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_dummy_in.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_ffmpeg_in.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_ft_font.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_gpac_js.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_img_in.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_ismacryp.so
/usr/lib/gpac/gm_isom_in.so

If you encounter the following error during compilation:

scenegraph/vrml_smjs.c:41:20: error: jsapi.h: No such file or directory

make symlinks to jsapi.h and compile again as follows:

cd include/

ln -s ../extra_lib/include/js/* .

cd ..

./configure --prefix=/usr --cpu=i586 --enable-pic --strip --use-ffmpeg=local --use-js=local --extra-cflags=-DXP_UNIX

make

make install

Some programs require the gpac static library libgpac_static.a. This file is not installed by default. However, you can copy it manually:

cp bin/gcc/libgpac_static.a usr/lib

Building OGMRip

Finally, let's build OGMRip. First, make sure you have the following developer libraries:

libdbus-glib-1-dev
libdvdread-dev
libenca-dev
libenchant-dev
libgconf2-dev
libglade2-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
libhal-dev
libnotify-dev
libstdc++6-4.4-dev
libtheora-dev

Optionally, install intltool, gtk-doc and xsltproc for internationalization and documentation. Then, build OGMRip as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-gtk-doc --with-ocr=auto

make

make install

After OGMRip is compiled and installed successfully, the following set of files are generated on system:

Now that you've compiled OGMRip, go ahead and test it. Be sure that mplayer, mencoder, ogmtools, vorbis-tools, gpac, faac, lame, mkvtoolnix and gocr (or ocrad) are installed, also.

Compiling MLDonkey for Linux

MLDonkey is a multi-protocol P2P file-sharing program for Windows, Mac and Linux. Unlike eMule, MLDonkey supports Bittorrent, FastTrack and DirectConnect networks, too. Compiling MLDonkey requires OCaml compiler toolchain. First, download and install the following Ocaml stuff. These are names of required Debian packages:

ocaml-native-compilers

camlp4

ocaml-nox

Then, install these libraries:

zlib1g-dev

libbz-dev

libgd2-xpm-dev

libmagic-dev

Now, you are ready to compile MLDonkey. Change directory to the MLDonkey source tree and type these commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu

make release.mlnet.static

You'll get a tarball, for example, mldonkey-3.0.0.static.i586-Linux_glibc-2.7.tar.bz2. Keep it at a safe place. Now, extract the tarball to a directory, for example, /opt. In the extracted folder, you'll find an executable, mlnet. This is just a command-line program, so you need a GUI frontend, such as Sancho.

Speed Reading

We are living in the age of information overload. Most of us have to constantly read or process a lot of information just to keep up with the fast pace of our business or school. We need to read fast, and a lot faster. But reading fast requires a skill. There are many different techniques for speed reading. What follows is introduction to one of speed reading techniques.

Why we can't read fast

There are 3 major reasons that hinder speed reading:

• Habitual regression
  
  A casual reader occasionally stops reading when he or she encounters an unknown or ambiguous word. This dramatically slows reading while reducing the efficiency of the short-term memory used for reading. Remember, the context is more important than the precise meaning. An efficient reader should quickly read through the material and look up words only before or after the reading.


• Polysyllabic fixation
  
  English, like most Indo-European languages, is a polysyllabic language. That means most English words are made up of two or more syllables, for example, hospital, hippopotamus, etc. Most adult readers can recognize thousands of polysyllabic words instantly when they see the words because they recognize their shape, length, syllables and prior learning. However, poor readers tend to read words by each syllable, thus resulting in slow reading. On the other hand, speed readers pass over the words very quickly, taking in all the rest of the stuff with brain-eye coordination and memory.


• Subvocalization
  
  Subvocalization often occurs simultaneously with polysyllabic fixation. Most readers speak while reading, either in their mouth, in their throat, or in their mind. This is a bad habit for people who need to read a lot of material.
  

Organization Patterns: Parts-to-Whole vs Whole-to-Parts

Efficient readers can apply different reading skills to different materials, be it fiction, non-fiction, magazine or newspaper. Most reading materials can be put into two categories: fiction and non-fiction. They have two different organizational patterns, for example, parts-to-whole or whole-to-parts.

Fictional works have the parts-to-whole pattern. When you read something fictional, you don't know until the very end of the story what it is all about. When you read a fiction, you need to understand the parts and put the parts together so as to understand the whole.

Nonfictional materials like textbooks have the whole-to-parts pattern. A typical textbook begins with an introduction of what you're going to read or learn, then the actual contents divided into sections, and finishes with a summary or conclusion. Thus, the organization of informational books leads you from the whole to the parts. You get the big picture and then its components.

Preview before Reading

A good reader should preview a reading material and select an appropriate reading strategy according to the organizational pattern of the material. It is always important to preview the reading material before you actually read it. Some quick preview methods are as follows:

• skim the first and last few pages
  
• skim the first 5 pages, several places in the middle and the
  last 5 pages
  
• skim the entire work
  
• skim the beginning of each chapter or each subsection
  

Speed Reading Procedure

The following steps are recommended for improved comprehension, speed and retention:

1. Survey
   
   Reader looks at covers and title, reads the preface and introductions, checks out if there is a glossary, definitions, pictures, etc.
   
2. Preview
   
   Reader pays special attention to chapter titles and section titles, reads the introductions and conclusions of chapters, time permitting the first sentence of every paragraph.
   
3. Comprehensive Reading
   
   Select the appropriate reading strategy — what can be skipped, read more carefully, etc. Mark in the margins those places to return to for an additional reading once the first reading is done. There should be NO highlighting or underlining in the first read-through. A simple check/dot in the margins is all that should be done at this point. And the reader SHOULD NOT STOP and employ that BAD HABIT: habitual regression!
   
4. Review
   
   This is to check what was marked in the margin, skim and review the material, recall something, find answers, etc. Some quick review methods follow:
   
   
   
   • skim the entire work, slowing on the marked parts
     
   • skim from marked part to marked part
     
   • reread difficult parts only
     
   • scan only for answers to questions
     
   • review as many times as you need
     
   
   

Some skills that help Speed Reading

Good vocabulary and grammar skills are essential to reading, of course. Also, prior knowledge helps reading comprehension. Prior knowledge may refer to one's experiences or basic knowledge required for the current readings.

Good Reading Strategies

• The reader takes chances — risks errors with language
  
• The reader reads to get meaning NOT to identify letters or words
  
• The reader guesses from context at unfamiliar words or SKIPS them and
  deals with them later at an appropriate time given the reading
  
• The reader reads as though he/she expects the text to make
  sense — Expecting meaning, predicting meaning, making guesses, taking
  chances. Pushing ahead confidently are strategies that are critical for
  identifying meaning early on — the brain must relate incoming information
  to already stored information.
  
• The reader samples the text as economically as
  possible (especially if a good preview took place) and uses the skills of
  peripheral vision to assist.
