BHS-Diplomarbeit erleichtern. In diesem E-Book wird ein Sammelsurium an Software vorgestellt, das sich für den Einsatz eignet. Dabei werden (abgesehen vom Microsoft Office Paket) ausschließlich kostenlose Programme angesprochen bzw. empfohlen. Es werden Programme und Apps für die Betriebssysteme Windows und Android vorgestellt. Bei Computern / Laptops / Notebooks / … hat Windows den größten Marktanteil und ist in nahezu allen Schulen das Betriebssystem. Bei den Smartphones dominiert Android den Markt. Viele (vor allem auch quellenoffene) Programme gibt es auch für iOS und Linux, allerdings würde das den Rahmen sprengen und an der Zielgruppe vorbeischlittern.

Requires an external program, ‘ssconvert’ (normally installed with gnumeric in ‘PATH’. (Gnumeric home page is http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/) (Note: last gnumeric release for windows is 1.12.17 from 2014) Calls ‘ssconvert’ to convert the input to CSV. ‘ssconvert’ can read several file formats (see Details below). Note: During conversion to CSV ‘ssconvert’ also evaluates formulas (e.g. ‘=sum(A1:A3)’) in cells, and emits the result instead of the formula.

    Applyx 076 (LYX 2.1.5) Pierre L. Douillet 17 septembre 2019 (a short tale of modern ages - 3) Résumé Tant que l’on n’a jamais su que Alzheimer s’écrivait avec un "h", il n’y a aucun problème à ne pas s’en souvenir. Mais il n’y a rien de plus agaçant que de savoir que l’on a rencontré la réponse à un problème technique dans un bouquin de 999 pages (et c’était sur une page de gauche, mais peut-être aussi sur une page de droite)... Tandis qu’un document informatisé est facile à interroger, et en même temps plus difficile à égarer qu’une suite de notes papier. Les distributions visées sont SuSE − 6:1, SuSE − 6:2, SuSE − 6:3, SuSE − 6:4, SuSE − 7:0, SuSE − 7:2, SuSE − 7:3, SuSE − 8:0, SuSE − 8:1, SuSE − 9:3, SuSE − 10:2, SuSE − 11:0, SuSE − 11:3, SuSE − 11:4; SuSE − 13:1 et SuSE − 42:1. D’autres distributions existent. Par exemple RedHat, dont au moins une livraison formate spontanément tous les disques durs d’une machine, etc. Dans ce qui suit, les items numérotés décrivent les questions ayant trouvé une réponse (même désagréable) tandis que les items avec des boulets décrivent les questions restées en suspens. Par ailleurs, la taille de ce document augmentant au fil du temps, nous l’avons fractionné en quatre parties : (1) installation proprement dite, (2) configuration d’un système installé, (3) partie "appli- cative" des problèmes rencontrés, (4) collation des batchs utilisés pour la configuration du barnum.

  • TII - File Types and Word Processor Compatibility to Submit a Paper to Turnitin, the Paper Must Meet Their Requirements
    TII - File Types and Word Processor Compatibility To submit a paper to Turnitin, the paper must meet their requirements. Turnitin currently accepts the following file types: 1. Microsoft Word® (.doc / .docx)* 2. OpenOffice (.odt)** 3. WordPerfect® (.wpd) 4. PostScript (.ps/.eps) 5. Adobe® PDF 6. HTML 7. Rich text format (.rtf) 8. Plain text (.txt) 9. Hangul Word Processor file (.hwp) The paper being submitted must contain more than 20 words, must be under 20MB (or approximately two million characters), must not exceed 400 pages in length, and must not contain spaces in between every letter (l i k e t h i s). Please note that TII does not support: 1. Microsoft Works (.wps) file types. 2. Apple Pages file types. 3. Spreadsheets (ex. Excel files) or PowerPoint files. 4. PDF files of images, or PDF files which do not contain highlightable text (ex. a "scanned" file, which is often simply a picture of text, is unacceptable). Therefore, if an unsupported word processor is being used, you may need to save the file as a TXT or RTF file in order to upload to Turnitin. *Note: TII does not accept Microsoft Word 2007 macros-enabled (.docm) files (they do accept the standard .docx files). Whatever macro is encoded in the file is stripped away when submitted to Turnitin. For example, when using a "letter replacement macro," TII strips the macro from the Wordfile, and whatever characters the student originally had in the file will appear (ex. "a~"). Also, TII does NOT accept password-protected files. **Note: Turnitin will not accept .odt files created and downloaded from Google Docs online.
