Gemini Adventures

I think for now I'll keep top-posting on here.

Writing a separate Gemini exporter in lisp or trying to fix the ox-gemini code.

Slow progress. In my fantasy world I'd create a single .org file for each episode or blog entry, and have Emacs org-publish both .gmi and .html versions from one command.

Hmm. So far I'm not sure ox-gemini is able to do links properly at all :(

Also I'm not sure Molly-Brown, the server is capable of serving .mp3 files. No reference to MIME types seems evident in the config. Maybe the idea of pubishing a podcast on Gemini isn't what I thought it would be, Yet I've seen gemini capsules that have audio for download, so what gives?

So here it is. Thanks to Roy at Techrights for giving us a plug. It's great to have at least one regular Cybershow fan!

Today: experimenting with ox-gemini to export from emacs org, which is where we make and organise (it's rather good for organising things - maybe that's what the name is all about :) all our stuff.

For now this is going to be like a real blog (one page that just gets written over, not a vanity page for an ever growing list of lengthy therapy essays) as I learn gemini.

Here's where I got to today (will code export work? Lets see)

(require 'ox-publish)
(add-to-list 'load-path "./ox-gemini")
(load "ox-gemini")
(setq publishdir "./")
;; ### Main Publish Block
(setq org-publish-project-alist
      (list
       (list "org"
             :base-directory "./"
             :base-extension "org"
             :with-author nil
             :with-toc nil
             :with-date nil
             :section-numbers nil
             :with-drawers t
             :recursive t
             :publishing-directory publishdir
             :publishing-function 'org-gemini-publish-to-gemini)))
(org-publish-all)
(message "build finished")

And at the moment that's just called from a script

echo -e "\033[31;1;4m BASH: Making a Gemini Site\033[0m"
emacs -Q --script test-publish-gemini.el
rsync –delete -av -e ssh localdir andy@vmtest:/var/www/sites/

Slowly I'll add chunks from the cybershow html site - which is itself about to undergo a bit of a revamp to completely remove PHP and go to a static build within the same batch scipt as this .gmi site

Lets say I have

an HTML link from the oldwb to share

[about "AI" and art] <– a marxist take on commodification of art

A link to test

[https://redsails.org/artisanal-intelligence/#the-artist-reaction-reactionary]

Is it rude to share html in gemspace?
