Virtualization, Automation, and anything else that might be on my mind
From The Gallery Website
“We are incredibly pleased to announce the release of Gallery 2.0! Over three years of design and development have gone into creating the best online photo management product possible. Gallery 2.0 is the natural successor to Gallery 1, and we hope that you like what you see. Don’t wait, download Gallery 2 now!”
I just installed it, and it was a breeze, I should have a link up here in a little bit.
This week’s command is: screen
I actually just found this command recently. It’s a great little treasure that expands the use of unix in a huge way. Let me explain.
For those of you who don’t know, Unix uses a CLI (or Command Line Interface), meaning that there are no “windows” or “X” boxes to close the windows, it’s all handeled by the keyboard and text on the screen.
Multitasking is critical with computers, and until recently, I’ve been cheating by opening up separate windows in my SSH (or Secure Shell) client. This can be a little bit tiring because you have to connect to the server each time you make a new window.
A new JonHoweOnline.com tradition is being formed. Every Monday, I’ll be introducing a new *nix command.
Feel free to leave me comments about the commands. Maybe you think that you know a better way to do something, maybe you think that this command stinks. Let me know!
Later,
Jon Howe
