poser setup save

I use poser pro 2012 and a lot of python plugins that seem to break a lot so i end up have to readd a lot of folders and stuff to some of my inventory scripts i wrote this script to backup my poser pro 2012 config files and timestamp them.

saveposersetup ()
{
filedate=$(date | sed 's/ /./g')
poserloc="/Users/rcg/Library/Preferences/";
cd $poserloc;
if [ "$1" == "d" ]; then
zip -r ~/posersave/poserpref.zip.$filedate $poserloc"Poser Pro";
echo "poser options saved on $filedate"
cd -
else
zip -r ~/posersave/poserpref.zip $poserloc"Poser Pro";
echo "poser options saved over the default poserpref.zip"
cd -
fi
}

Script does the following:

screenshare on mac fails

quick vmc fix script i wrote for fixing up screensahre when it dies, just copy this to the other mac via ssh and run it

fixvnc ()
{
sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -restart -agent
}

set rm to move to trash instead of perm delete

I use console a lot, and one thing i have found annoying is when i type rm -rvf it removes everything completely, or if a program executed rm function it does the same, by default I have rm    as a choice.

rmset ()
{
status=$1;
if [ "$status" == "on" ]; then
function rm ()
{
local path;
for path in "$@";
do
if [[ "$path" = -* ]]; then
:;
else
local dst=${path##*/};
while [ -e ~/.Trash/"$dst" ]; do
dst="$dst "$(date +%H-%M-%S);
done;
mv "$path" ~/.Trash/"$dst";
fi;
done
};
echo "rm is set to not delete but instead mode to ~/.Trash";
else
unset rm;
echo "rm will remove entirely skipping Trash";
fi
}

size script

I do a lot of images and one thing i cant think of off the top of my head is sizes of images at larger size so i made a quick script.

Example. Say I have an image thats 400 height and 100 width but i want to start 6 times larger to make sure that it dont pixelize from constant resizing. I would do:

howbig 400 100 6

macbookpro:~ rcg$ howbig 400 100 6
Your current size is Height: 400 x Width: 100; You want to make an image 6 times larger; Your new size will be Height: 2400 x Width: 600

here is the function i wrote You may need to install bc its a command line calculator.

howbig ()
{
height="$1";
width="$2";
howmuch="$3";
newsizeh=$(echo "$height*$howmuch" | bc);
newsizew=$(echo "$width * $howmuch" | bc);
echo "Your current size is Height: $height x Width: $width; You want to make an image $howmuch times larger; Your new size will be Height: $newsizeh x Width: $newsizew"
}
