First off, thanks so much to Jesus for hosting! It worked out well. And thank you to everyone who made it, it was great to see everyone, I had a nice time. Secondly, here's a link to the photo from last night: http://montcolug.org/images/buxmontlug_011606.jpg Clockwise from top left: Lyz Krumbach, Michael Joseph, Marty Squicciarini, Tom Lowery, Lee Marzke, Jesus Arocho, Michael Bevilacqua And finally, some links related to the short talk I gave on text-based communication in Linux: screen: http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/screen.html What I ran the programs inside to give me the ability to detatch and log out of the system while leaving the program running. irssi: http://www.irssi.org The IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client I use to connect to several IRC servers. bitlbee: http://www.bitlbee.org The IM software used to connect to AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, ICQ, Jabber and Google Talk. mutt: http://www.mutt.org/ The text-based email client I use. SquirrelMail: http://www.squirrelmail.org/ The web-based email software I use. mail.pl: http://www.irssi.org/scripts/html/mail.pl.html The irssi script that queries the mailbox and displays the number of new emails in the irssi window. rss2email: http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/rss2email/ A python script that queries RSS feeds and emails me the new articles/entries. I have a crontab set up to run this twice a day. And these are a couple little how-tos that I've written over the years that are related to the talk: http://www.princessleia.com/sshscreen.php (very simple description of ssh and screen, written to be friendly to people new to *nix) http://www.princessleia.com/irssi.php (basics to getting irssi running) Lyz -- Elizabeth A.
