Another Apology and BASH Talk Summary.

We had a very small turn out tonight at our BASH talk. On investigation, we discovered that while we updated most everywhere, we (being me) forgot to update the website with the new date.

Anyway, thanks to those who showed up in 14-255 tonight for Josh’s talk. It was very informative. Here is Josh’s Bash Presentation as a PDF.

May Events and an Apology

Our sincere apologies to anyone who ended up wandering the English building looking for us. It was quite a typo.

Upcoming May Events

5/6 – Bash Scripting Talk of Doom Death (Tentative, but appropriate, title)
Josh, aka SillyG, aka President of CPLUG, will be giving a talk on BASH scripting Tuesday May 13th at 7pm in a room to be determined. A lot of us have been waiting for this to happen, so come on by and learn a thing or two.

Update: Check our facebook group (cplug) and the BASH event through there for location, time, etc.

FYM and POU summary

Hey Guys,

Thanks to everyone who showed up to our events this month. If you have any questions feel free to contact us. mgius would also like to say this about getting to know CPLUG:

There are 2 main ways to get active in the club. The first is the Mailing List. Just sign up for announce and cplug and go from there. The second way to hear about events, ask questions, and get to know us is through our IRC channel. We are #cplug on Freenode.net. If you need help setting up IRC we recommend XChat for Linux & Windows. Our mac users reccomend different things, but I’ve heard Colloquy, and if you use Pidgin/Gaim it has (bad) IRC support. For help on setting up IRC check this link.

Hope to see you guys soon at some of our other events or online.

On Power of Unix

Sorry this is so late, we will get the info up faster next time, just been busy with school and what not.

One of the things many people have been asking for is the ~/.screenrc file that victor uses. Victor learned about it from this Gentoo page. but the file should contain the following:

# use visual bell
vbell on
# replace ctrl-A by ctrl-O
escape ^Oo
# set a big scrolling buffer
defscrollback 5000
# Set the caption on the bottom line
caption always "%{= kw}%-w%{= BW}%n %t%{-}%+w %-= @%H - %LD %d %LM - %c"

I hope to get the other info up soon, also we need to finish getting the pages ready. It will happen this quarter, I promise.

Look forward to our SSH talk sometime in November.

New Website Live?!?

That’s right fellow penguin lovers, the new CPLUG website is live!

There are still a few bugs to work out, and we still need to clean up the old information, and port over user profiles, but we have decided to put up the site now just to be amazing.

If you have any complaints, log them either on IRC or on the mailing list, or even email execboard at cplug dot org.

look forward to more updates every monday night.

FYM recap

We had a good FYM as usual. A decent turnout, with only a few issues doing installs. Those of you who attended, feel free to hop in our CPLUG IRC channel or join the mailing list to ask questions and be informed about future events.
