My path through nerd matter
I think I like this:
[cc lang=”bash”]
function parse_git_dirty {
[[ $(git status 2> /dev/null | tail -n1) != “nothing to commit (working directory clean)” ]] && echo “*”
}
function parse_git_branch {
git branch –no-color 2> /dev/null | sed -e ‘/^[^*]/d’ -e “s/* \(.*\)/[\1$(parse_git_dirty)]/”
}
export PS1=’${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;33m\]\w\[\033[01;32m\] $(parse_git_branch) \[\033[01;36m\]$ \[\033[00m\]’
[/cc]
Wish you could set up an account in Thunderbird manually?
You’re not alone.
The trick: Hit the “stop” button as soon as you enter the automatic setup window and set your settings manually. If you wait to press “stop” it will not stop and the best thing you can do is to cansel and start over again.

Taglist uses exuberant ctags, which supports many languages including PHP. I use vim on a daily basis to edit PHP files. Often classes and functions have PHPDoc and some like to use the words ‘class’ or ‘function’ in their comments. Fair enough, but ctags regex strings ignores that lines may have a preceding ‘*’ or ‘//’ and thus create tags of funny classes and functions. In some cases browsing large files of PHP source code with taglist is pointless.
The solution to this is writing your own ctags configuration file (~/.ctags) and letting ctags know what regex strings You want to tag your PHP files with:
-f ./tags
--langmap=php:+.inc
-h '.php.inc'
-R
--totals=yes
--tag-relative=yes
--PHP-kinds=+cf-v
--regex-PHP
--regex-PHP=/(^|^[^*]+[[:blank:]])class[[:blank:]]+([[:alpha:]][[:alnum:]_]*)/\2/c/
--regex-PHP=/(^|^[^*]+[[:blank:]])function[[:blank:]]+&?[[:blank:]]*([[:alpha:]][[:alnum:]_]*)/\2/f/
I’ve used MyPasswordSafe for some time, but after I installed Kubuntu Karmic Koala AMD64 it would’nt start. I googled the Internet for a better program and settled with KeepassX.
Next trouble was to move my passwords from MyPasswordSafe to KeepassX. Both programs can export/import XML files, so I made a PHP file that did the job. I even created a project on githut for it.
I work as an consultant and thus write code for different customers that may have quite different coding standards and license policies. Adapting to a customer often involves changing many files in the vim config files and plugins, but after I initialized a git repo in my ~/.vim folder I only have to change branch for each customer I work for. git br (git branch) gives me a neat list of predefined customer settings to choose from. Then its just git co [customer] and start to work.
My college came by my desk today wanting to know how to go back in time with vim. He had been undoing and redoing a lot and suddenly realised he had messed up his buffers. I had never heard about going back in time with vim, but Google had the answer on this post: lifehacker.com/202093/go-back-in-text-file-time-with-vim-70.
Apparently the past is but a :earlier 10m away!
This is simple thanks to the Zindus extension to Thunderbird.
As stated in this blog post, you can just enter the coordinates like this:
37 57 11.98 N 121 05 15.76 W
PHP5 is more backwards compatible than I excepted.
Today I came across a site that “compare all kinds of PHP Frameworks”: www.phpframeworks.com.
I must confess there where several I’d never heard about…
