Gambas – Gambas Almost Means Basic

Interesting looking programming environment. Just saw a reference in TiraEcol, the comic that I posted a link to earlier today, and looked it up. Turns out that PCLOS has it in the package manager so have installed it. Now to see if I can figure it out and then see if I remember ANYTHING about programing in BASIC.

Pieces n bits

Been working on getting some of the books in order. Talk about a tall order. At this point I can’t even begin to guess how many titles we have. Most places on the shelves they are stacked 2 and 3 piles deep and in NO order what so ever. And the shelves are all full. So one of the next steps is to figure out where I can put more shelves. Right now I have been moving titles around to try to get the most prolific authors titles together. And even that is not exactly true as I have only been working in two or three rooms. Haven’t even started in the most crowded buildings where the majority of the books are stored. Just in the living areas where I would like to be able to find things. But as the saying goes “The journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step” so this seems to be mu first step in this madness. If energy allows I suspect I may finish sometime about 3 years from now. More as it gets done…

Interesting concept. From what is posted in the comments the efficiency is way on up there for the amount of air it moves. Cool! in more ways than one. 😉

Food for the Playa! Only complaint I have with the site is that the recipes are in .doc format. Some of them look good, others not so, but all seem to be eatable.

freshmeat.net: Project details for Frog
Frog is a tool for publishing and maintaining contents on a Web site. It is a rewrite of Radiant CMS and features an elegant user interface, flexible templating with layouts, snippets, and flexible page parts, a simple user management/rights system, search engine friendly URLs, password protected live administration, and support for Textile.

Another bit of software that I am somewhat interested in looking into further.

TreeLine

TreeLine
What is TreeLine?

Do you have lots of sticky notes lying around with various useful information jotted down? Or many lists of books, movies, website logins, personal contacts, or things to do? Can you find them when you need them? Well, I often couldn’t. So here’s my answer.

Some would call TreeLine an Outliner, others would call it a PIM. Basically, it just stores almost any kind of information. A tree structure makes it easy to keep things organized. And each node in the tree can contain several fields, forming a mini-database. The output format for each node can be defined, and the output can be shown on the screen, printed, or exported to html.

For what it’s worth. Looks interesting enough to try. Just got to get off my ass and do so…
