Well, bad news and good news. The bad news is I’ve lost my stylus, so I won’t be inking any pages for a while. Won’t stop me from pencilling, of course, but it’s going to delay comic updates just a bit longer.

On the good news front, I finished reworking the scripts I use to generate the print and web graphics from my source files (which had been another roadblock to continued updates), and moreover I’ve put them online if anyone wants to try them out for their own purposes.

What documentation there is, is here: http://minicomic.rubyforge.org/. Downloadables are here: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=3339

Requirements at the moment are:

• Linux/OS X (it can work on Windows in theory, but I’ve not tried it)
• Ruby 1.8
• Rake
• Inkscape
• psutils
• Ghostscript
• ImageMagick
• pngcrush
