NOT TODAY!!!
Because of the holiday weekend...MOVED TO NEXT Sunday!
========================================================================
Wed. Sept. 8
SLUUG -St. Louis UNIX Users' Grp
Monthly General mtng.
The topic is chosen!
Vim (NOT Fandango!)
by Bill Odom.
Bill did a great presentation on VIM 2 weeks
ago at Perl Mongers. This will NOT be the same
presentation!
NEW APPLICATIONS!
NEW EXAMPLES!
OLD JOKES!
Bill has more material to explore but you didn't
need to be there for the earlier talk. Its fine
to pick it up at this point.
This presentaion on the "Vi IMproved" text
editor is much more than a tutorial. It has
two major goals:
* Give people who'd never used vim before an
* idea of its power, and whet their appetites
* so they'd want to learn more.
* Show more experienced vim users one or more
* new features, techniques, or tricks that
* they could use immediately.
A tutorial wouldn't do much to convince the
first group that vim was worth their time,
and a tutorial would've just bored the
second. With that said, there's a lot of
desire for solid tutorial content from people
that are already convinced that vim is
something they want to better understand.
With enough continued interest, we may expect many
short focused vim tutorials in tutorials in
the future...or maybe workshops.
Bill Odom builds left handed widgets, which
he discards because he is right handed. Or is
it the other way around?
_______________________
And preceeded @ 6:30 by a basic tutorial...
The UNIX Toolbox by Jerry Stutte.
The "Unix Tool Box" is a collection of Unix/Linux/BSD
commands and tasks which are useful for IT work or for
advanced users. This is a practical guide with concise
explanations, however the reader is supposed to know what
s/he is doing. With its menu structure, it provides an
excellent resource for beginners and advanced users.
Jerry Stutte has gone 73 days without a security
incident. He should run rkhunter and tiger.
