Re: mapping out characters
I don't maintain the Effulgence index, but maybe kappa will take a look at the items nested under festive rainbow mirror summoning.

Re: mapping out characters
I might be missing something obvious here, but isn't the font on edgeofyourseat (as well as the default Dreamwidth site style) *also* sans serif?linkhyrule5 wrote:The index on edgeofmyseat.

Re: mapping out characters
if you have a dreamwidth account (they're free), you can set your journal (you don't have to use it for writing if you don't want) style to a font and colour scheme that you like, and then you can add ?style=mine to the urls (use &style=mine instead if the url already has a ? in it). Then, it will display in the font and colours of your choice.linkhyrule5 wrote:The index on edgeofmyseat.

I've got my own set to giant font with low contrast and no bright colours with even the icons dimmed so i can still read it when i have a headache.

Re: mapping out characters
I have double-checked and cannot find any missing top-level links in the index for the indicated post.
Re: mapping out characters
I do have Effulgence downloaded (except for the recent chapters; I’m working on those but something seems to be wrong and I haven’t had time to diagnose it). There is no “Sophie's Choice”. There are a few references to “favorite person”, not all of which are relevant, but it looks like most of the relevant ones are in the chapter “miracle crystal dancing jewel, spin!”, starting here. There’s also a bit later, starting here. Neither of them seems to be quite what you’re looking for, though.
It is annoying searching here when Kappa and Alicorn spell the first word differently. Maybe I should have used grep like Shoal suggested; I thought searching through the epub would be easier because I could look at the context more easily.

Re: mapping out characters
grep -A 3 -B 3 -e "favo*rite person" effulgence.epub > favourite-people.txt
the A flag makes it print out some number of lines before the match. B makes it print some lines after all.
searching just favo*rite could catch things like "Renee's favourite" or "Charlie's favorite" but of course would have more false positives.
I am sorry I am typing terminal commands at you instead of just downloading it myself.

Huh.
I could've sworn there were a few missing, but I just went back to try and find them myself and totally failed, so. Huh.
Oh well. If I ever find it I'll let you know. >.> Thanks for helping, anyway!

-C combines A and B and is generally awesome. How I remember them: A = "after", B = "before", C = "context" (so both before and after). Useful when A and B are the same, but in some cases (Rails log files in my personal experience) you sometimes want things like grep grep -A 10 -B 2.
Re: mapping out characters
Thanks! I saw C in the man page but I couldn't figure out what that one meant.
