Podcasts for WSG Accessibility Meetup now live | 3 Comments

Posted in Events, WSG on 17th April 2007, 9:22 pm by

The podcasts for February’s accessibility meetup are now available, overall it didn’t come out too badly, though there are some sections of Mike’s presentation and the QandA that are a little on the quiet side. You can download the podcasts by subscribing to the podcast feed in your favorite audio app or alternatively you can download each individual .mp3

On other WSG related news I’ve been up to my eyeballs with one thing or another so the WSG meetings are looking to be more likely a quarterly event rather than every 2 months as I originally planned. Another possibility to this is if there is anyone out there who would be interested in helping out on the organisation front so that we can increase the frequency of the events, if that sounds like you let me know.

Finally I am still looking for more speakers for future events, so if you have any great ideas for topic you’d like to hear about or you are a speaker yourself please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

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|(3)

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
