WSG London JavaScript Meetup | Comments (2)

Posted in Events on 9th May 2007, 12:43 pm by Stuart

On Wednesday 16th May I will be holding the fourth Web Standards Group London Meetup at the Westminster University. The event will feature Christian Heilmann and Steve Faulkner speaking on various aspect of JavaScript development from creating maintainable bloat-free code to understanding accessibility issues around the use of Ajax.

Modern web development has certainly evolved such that heavier use of JavaScript has become so much more common-place. This event will give you some important insights that will help you make better use of JavaScript day to day.

This looks to be an exciting evening so I hope to see you there.

As usual the full details are available at the Web Standards Group London mini-site, be sure to register as soon as you can.

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
