Nearly every aspect of its behavior can be tweaked or enhanced, and new features can be added with plugins. Unfortunately, it can be tough to know exactly where to *do* all this configuring -- it's not always as easy as tossing a couple of new settings in your .vimrc. Navigating the plethora of places where customizations might be squirreled away can challenge even the most experienced Vim user. This talk is the guide to what goes where. We'll cover the purpose of the different vimrc files (yes, there's more than one -- there's even more than two), the various plugin types (and how to force them to behave), autocommands (and the dozens of places to put them), the super-handy "after" directories, and (since this is Vim) even more. We'll even briefly touch on managing this whole mess with tools like git, vundle, and pathogen. We start the general meeting with a basic session. Then we will have our usual quick welcome, introduction, administrative announcements, and a Questions and Answers Period. After all that, we take a break before our main event.

The tour will include the Leadership Computing Facility, Advanced Photon Source, and the Nuclear Engineering Exhibit. The leadership computing facility contains the massively parallel Blue Gene supercomputer. The Advanced Photo Source produces the most brilliant X-ray beams in the western hemisphere. This tour should prove to be extremely interesting and informative. UniForum is an international UNIX users' group. SLUUG decided a decade ago to NOT formally join UniForum but obviously Chicago has joined. We'll all meet at the Argonne Information/Visitor Center at 6:30pm, which is located off Northgate Road. From I-55, take exit 273A south on Cass Avenue 0.7 mi to Northgate Road (main entrance). Turn right and continue 0.7 miles to the Guard Gate and the vistor center. There are some special requirements for admission onto the premises: To expedite entry on-site, we need to present a list of ALL names and citizenship to Argonne. Please goto the UniForum Chicago meetup page (http://www.meetup.com/UniForum-Chicago/events/55986592/) and RSVP your participation. Once we have finished the tour, we will adjourn to a nearby restaurant (yet to be determined) for food and drinks for our usual After-the-Meeting meeting. All UniForum Chicago general meetings are open to the public free of charge.

She was on the final shuttle flight and wil speak on... “The International Space Station – and Beyond ", an illustrated lecture by NASA Space Shuttle Astronaut Sandra Magnus, will be presented at the James S. McDonnell Planetarium of the Saint Louis Science Center. The last Space Shuttle flights completed the basic construction of the International Space Station. NASA astronauts, joined by astronauts from Russia and a number of other countries, continue to live and work on the Space Station. They conduct experiments that take advantage of the low-gravity, near-vacuum, high altitude environment, and they expand our knowledge about the effects of living in space for extended periods. This knowledge is needed to prepare for future spacecraft missions to Mars and other planets. What lies ahead for the human exploration of space? Dr. Magnus will talk about future missions to the Space Station, and also about what lies ahead for the NASA astronaut corps. Dr. Magnus, a native of Belleville Illinois, received Bachelor’s and Masters degrees from the University of Missouri, Rolla, and a Doctorate in Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. She entered the NASA Astronaut program in August 1996. Her first Space Shuttle flight, in October 2002, was in support of the construction of the Space Station. She flew again, a 4.5 month mission, to the Space Station in 2008-09, and a third time last July, on the final flight of the Space Shuttle program. The program will begin at 7:00 pm Tuesday, April 10, in the Ortwein Star Bay of the Planetarium. The Planetarium building is located at 5100 Clayton Road, St. Louis, MO 63110, in the southeast corner of Forest Park. The building is across I-64, north of the main Science Center building. The event, cosponsored by the Saint Louis Astronomical Society and NASA's Missouri Space Grant Consortium, is open to the public free of charge. T he St. Louis Astronomical Society is an organization for individuals interested in astronomy and telescopes. The public is invited to attend its meetings, telescope observing sessions, and special events.
