Del.icio.us adds experimental private saving | 1 Comment

Posted in Snippets on 24th March 2006, 1:06 pm by

Clive over at osde.info first told me about the new “private saving” feature added to del.icio.us that can be found under “experimental” in settings. This addition allows you to bookmark private links that aren’t shared. Great for when you need to keep under wraps your penchant for David Hasselhoff related links.

    Why would you want to keep that under wraps Stupot?

    Bring on the Hoff!

GNU screen: open tab in current working directory|(1)

A nice trick for having screen open a new tab in the same directory as the one you’re currently in. To use it add it to your .screenrc

# Open new window in current dir.
bind c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"
bind ^c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"

Ubuntu: add-apt-repository: command not found|(2)

When you’re using a minimal Ubuntu install if you find the ‘add-apt-repository’ command is missing (it’s useful for adding PPAs and other repositories), then simply run:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
