Hello World! I am pleased to announce the first release of blind[0]: version 1.0[1].
blind command line video editor designed primarily for creating new videos. blind uses a raw video format with a very simple container. The raw video uses CIE XYZ encoded with `double`s, with an alpha channel. The blind tools avoid using parameters give in the command line as much as possible, and instead use videos, for examples to blurring a video you use blind-gauss-blur, but gauss-blur does not have an option for selecting the standard deviation, instead it expects a video file with these values, which allows for non-uniform blurring and time-based blurring. To use blind, you need to have ffmpeg installed. ffmpeg is used by the tool that convert video file into the format blind uses, and by the tool that makes the conversion in the opposite direction. You may also want to have ImageMagick installed this is however optional, but if you do not have it installed, you will have to manually specify either farbfeld or PAM when converting to or frame images. No other image format is supported without ImageMagick. blind is a video-only editor, you have to use other tools for editing the audio. ffmpeg can be used to add audio into a video file, extract audio, or concatenate audio file. One problem at the moment is that, unless you want to rip your hair out, you will need a shell that supports process substitution, which unfortunately is not too common. Korn shell, Bash, and if I am not mistaken, rc, are the only shells I know that supports this. However, I'm working a sh(1p)-implementation (that will not support even close to everything sh(1p) specifies) that will support process substitution as well as provide access to pipe(3) for more complicated pipelines.
