Spreadsheets should allow a new additional cell format/type... which contains the unit of the data.

So you can specify that this cell is in KW and this cell is in Joules.

Then formulae not only convert for you automatically, but they also work out the resulting unit of a calculation if you want.

Was looking for SVG rendering library for C. Too many rely on far too much other stuff, or on C++.

Found plutosvg and plutovg and now have a single function to render SVG to transparent PNGs, in any size, in statically-built, MIT-licenced, pure C99.

Thanks, Sammy!

Just a warning that the latest 4452 update for my
Draytek Vigor2865Lax-5G resulted in a "firmware damaged" error and fortunately it detected this (tells you every time you click anywhere in the interface), rebooted and then rolled itself back to the previous 4451.

Newest project / WIP.

A quick, fun card videogame, Steam Deck and Linux compatible, by an indie developer.

It's about 6 weeks old at this point, but nearing maturity and hoping to get it onto Steam and/or GOG.

An awful Alpha screenshot:
