Using the plotters

Emulation is nice to save energy and prevent redundancy, you don't need a machine for every project because you can install that virtual machine on several systems. It is really convenient for testing purposes
-------------------------------
Get a virtual machine
-------------------------------

• Install virtualbox
• Create a New virtual machine
  • Give it a name and choose a folder to install the virtual machine in
  • ISO image = the Linux distro you want (look for it on distrowatch)
    • Debian: get it from debian.org > download > amd64.iso (arm64 for newest Macs)
    • Type is Linux
    • Subtype corresponds to the one chosen (Debian)
    • Version is the version of Debian
  • Set username and password
  • Choose the settings for system capacity and memory usage
  • Finish

-------------------------------
Get a graphical interface
-------------------------------

su
//enter password
apt install kde-plasma-desktop

-------------------------------
Print with plotters
-------------------------------

• Install python

su
//enter password
apt install python3.12-venv //or python3.11-venv

• Run venv

python3 -m venv
source bin/activate

• Install chiplotle

pip install chiplotle3

• Run chiplotle

chiplotle3

• Config file

• Print!

-------------------------------
Print cowsay fortune telling
-------------------------------

sudo apt install cowsay
sudo apt install fortune
fortune | cowsay

To check the animal/character options of cowsay:

cowsay -l

Print cowsay fortune prompts into a txt file so you can save them, choose from them and copy/paste them elswhere (such as inkscape to print them with the plotters <3)

fortune | cowsay -f duck >> cowsay-fortunes.txt
