Scripting Eclipse with EASE

24 Apr 2020

EASE is Eclipse Advanced Scripting Environment. It’s been around for a while. I just used it to automate creation of a new blog posting. I feel so 1999.

It supports multiple scripting languages, but I chose Python — actually it’s Jython — and made a cute little 16x16 icon to launch it. I type something in Markdown then do a git push and the rest is magic.

I like Lockdown

El amor en los tiempos del cólera

While extraverts are climbing the walls, I am loving this. I’ve actually started dreading the end of quarantine. While my physical activity could use a boost, I am relaxed and focused.
