I'm appalled. Mod parent down. I was just posting this to vent my anger, and now it's the first comment. Realize that this is a completely useless comment!
Ummm...double shame on me? I don't know how you got modded up, but I think you were looking for "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Not that that's particularly insightful, funny, informative, or any of the other positive mods.
Just to follow up...I found a better way to do this. "gj" and "gk" go up and down one screen line, and this is their built-in intended function. So now in my.vimrc, I have map <Down> gj map <Up>gk so that my up and down arrow keys go up and down one screen line. j and k still do file lines, so I have both functionalities.
We're getting off-topic:) but I use vim, which is why I mentioned this on a vim thread. It's nice that there's a solution in emacs, even though it's not as nice as the notepad one. If I wanted to switch text editors though, I'd just end up using a windows one probably.
I don't want Notepad-style wrapping for everything; I just want it as an option. Editing large paragraphs of text is a lot easier using it. Symbols to indicate wrapping is occurring would be a good option to have as well, for those who want it. I just hate trying to edit huge lines/paragraphs of text in vim, and not be able to press the down arrow to go down one screen-line.
Is there any way to make up and down arrows (j and k) move up and down one screen line in vim with lbr on? That's what the guy wants, and what I want too. I don't want to have to do weird things like "78l" (depending on screen width) to get to the next line.
:set nowrap (I'm assuming that's what you meant) does exactly what it says, it disables wrapping altogether, so you can't see all of the text without scrolling right. What he wants (and I'd like too) is an option that does wrapping like Windows Notepad. If you have a long line, it wraps in the display, but without actually inserting line breaks into the file. If you edit this line, the wrapping adapts to the length however you change it.
This is almost how vim works by default, showing the whole thing, but unfortunately, using the up and down arrows (or j and k) go up and down actual lines, not the virtual word-wrapped lines when in vim. That's the only thing I'd like to see changed, and then the guy will have what he wants too.
It's no big feat to prove economics wrong. It's the most ridiculous excuse for a valid science/profession that I've ever encountered. They sit around making common-sense observations about ideal situations, then try to apply those observations to the real world, which is far from economically ideal. If an economist says something, you already know right then and there that it's false.
I like Gallery. You end up with mostly static pages, except for a couple of the fancy options, and you can add your pictures remotely through your web browser or a companion desktop program, and alter names, captions, rotation, and the entire look and feel of the site in real time online.
If you're willing to spend a little money, then you can get exactly what you want. We have a package specifically designed for families, and we'll set up any PHP/perl script on there that you want. You can have calendars, photo albums, forums, web-manageable news, and pretty much whatever else you want, and the package includes registration of the domain name you want, so you could get yourlastname.com or similar, then give everyone in your family an email address @yourlastname.com
Pay for hosting. It's not really all that expensive, and you can do something which benefits your entire family. Set up a family portal that can have calendars, news, photo albums, forums, and give everybody in your family an email address. It's a nice thing to have, and worth the money.
I really don't think that this is something that people only want to use locally. If you want that, then just copy all your pictures to a directory on your computer and let the automatic thumbnailing do the work for you. Most people want others to be able to see their pictures though - share with friends and family. That's really what Gallery and other programs are designed for. We offer a hosting option just for this, so a family can set up and share all of their digital pictures. It's so much nicer and easier than getting 35mm prints made, and sending people a couple doubles. Now you have a virtually infinite number of copies that people anywhere in the world can see, and you can generate high quality prints from an online shop, or just stick some photo paper in your inkjet and get an equivalent.
That's kind of hard to do, because I'm not aware of an international organization which can claim jurisdiction and be in a position to apply and enforce a punishment. The US can hold them accountable for what they've done to the US, but it's hard to do it on an international level.
Maybe they're just doing this to fool everybody, so that once we finally see the CG scene in the movie, we say "Oh, I remember when they shut down Sydney to film this" and then we don't try to impress people with how obviously fake we see the CG to be.
My Prism just started cracking recently, up by where the little indentation is in the top for cases. I have mine in a case pretty much all the time, so it may just be a stress thing after a year and a half. The thing still works fine, but it's kind of disconcerting that the plastic is breaking just from normal use.
From a digital movie, it's a much shorter chain to your computer. Basically: Theater (nearly pristine) Copy --(compression)--> your computer For analog, you go from the pristine film to a degraded copy that's been shown a few times to a low-quality handheld video camera that's showing the movie being played in the theater, so you get to see shakes, heads, hear tinny mini-mic sounds and such, to a PC via capture card or firewire, to compression, to you.
The quality of a digital bootleg has the potential to be really quite good. If you have the bandwidth to download a few gigs, you could probably get something that's at least VHS quality.

Argh! Things don't have an affect!

America Online (AOL) is right there. I doubt they have to pay Fraunhofer another $50,000 just to change their name now that they merged.
Isn't it pretty close to "hero"? Hence hero also being a name for that type of sandwich.
Hmm. I think you missed it.
DEB = Debian package
RPM = RedHat package

Yes indeed. Thanks a bunch. That's exactly what I wanted.

So is that an Imperial couple or a metric couple? I'm 17 now, and I really don't expect us to be totally metric within my lifetime.
Vapor...that's a codename for water, right? Somebody get this guy some VC! I think he knows what he's doing.

What happens if you have multiple addresses for one person in Outlook? Do they all get synced, or does it just do one?
