codepen.io example I created that shows how to use CSS along with SVG graphics for responsive designs.

I'm finding all kinds of new shit today.

This has to be my favorite discussion on UX design colors.

git add -u 

Warning, starting git 2.0 (mid 2013), this will stage files on the whole working tree. If you want to stage file only under your current path with that working tree, then you need to use

Sorry for the late response, I looked at it, got caught up in something, and then completely forgot.

Rubular is a Ruby-based regular expression editor and tester. It's a handy way to test regular expressions as you write them. Rubular is an especially good fit for Ruby and Rails developers, since it uses Ruby on the server to evaluate regexes, but should also be useful for those working in other programming languages and frameworks (Java, PHP, Python, Javascript, etc.)

I would have never imagined how much simplier it is to install Git & Ruby on Ubuntu than it is on Windows. Unreal!

sudo apt-get install git-core

done... Ruby with RVM (Ruby Version Manager)

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install curl \curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm/ rvm requirements

Rails

rvm install ruby rvm use ruby --default

Install RubyGems

rvm rubygems current

Install Rails

rvm install rails

I love Sublime Text. It isn't free, but it is worth the money by far.

I use it for PHP, HTML, CSS, Rails, and Python. I haven't found any other text editor that I like better. I have posts explaining how to configure sublime with Git on windows and launching it from the command prompt in the archive, but now I wanted to install and configure it on my Ubuntu system.

Download Sublime Text

Visit sublimetext.com and download the flavour that best suites your needs (x86 or x64). I chose x64 - must faster.

Once the tarfile is downloaded open the terminal (ctrl+alt+t) and navigate to your downloads folder: cd Downloads and run the following command. Replace the x with the version number that suites you (mine was 2.0.2)

tarxf Sublime\ Text\ 2.0.x\ x64.tar.bz2

Relocate the Sublime Text 2 Application Files to a More Appropriate Directory

This will extract the necessary files to a folder called Sublime Text 2 inside your Downloads folder. You will want to copy this folder to your optional add-on folder (probably the best place for this add on application..) The downloads folder really isn't the best place to keep application files for many reasons, my number one would be accidental deletion.. Use the following command to copy the folder:

sudo mv Sublime\ Text\ 2 /opt/

Create a Symbolic Link to Call Sublime Text from the Terminal

I constantly use the terminal to launch applications, I even do this with the command prompt in windows. It is a habit. If you would like to create a reference for sublime text in the terminal so that you can launch it at will run the following command. Please note I am using the short name subl for my launching purpuses, you can rename it to whatever you would like.

sudo ln -s /opt/Sublime\ Text\ 2/sublime_text /usr/bin/subl

Simply replace subl at the end of the command with the desired nickname you would like to use to launch the application

Create a Launcher in the Unity Desktop

To create a .desktop file in "/usr/share/applications"to launch sublime text from the Unity Desktop, run the following command:

sudo subl /usr/share/applications/sublime.desktop

Note, if you created the symbolic link correctly to launch sublime text from the terminal, sublime text should open with the file sublime.desktop awaiting input! If it didn't, return to step 3 and follow the instructions again.

Paste/Copy the following into the sublime.desktop file:

[Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Name=Sublime Text 2 GenericName=Text Editor Exec=sublime Terminal=false Icon=/opt/Sublime Text 2/Icon/48x48/sublime_text.png Type=Application Categories=TextEditor;IDE;Development X-Ayatana-Desktop-Shortcuts=NewWindow [NewWindow Shortcut Group] Name=New Window Exec=sublime -n TargetEnvironment=Unity

If you want to use Sublime Text to open all text files

If you want sublime text to be the default application for text files, open the file associations list with sublime text:

sudo subl /usr/share/applications/defaults.list

Whenever Sublime Text opens, press ctrl+h (Replace) and fill in Find What: with geedit.desktop and Replace With: sublime.desktop

Open git bash and type:

$echo HOME

to view your git home directory, windows is normally /c/users/user_name

Create a new file in sublime text and add the following line:

alias subl="/C//Program\ Files/Sublime\ Text\ 2/sublime_text.exe"

Save the file in your home directory as .bash_profile

And then to call it for select you would:

 Dim sql as new MySQL('SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE member = ?Name') 

 sql.parameters("?Name", stringName)

 Call sql.retreive

 While sql.reader.Read()

  'get your results

 End While

 Call sql.close() 

To use a like statement with mysql, you would: 

Dim sql as new MySQL("SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE member LIKE ?Name") 

sql.parameters("?Name", "%" & stringName &"%") 

call sql.retreive

While this printer is awesome for an inkjet, extremely fast, and very low prices per page, I had to jump through hoops to find out if this could use the micro ink to print checks.

Create a new table and have the columns match the data types for the columns in the CSV file.

Run the following query to load contents of CSV file into a MySQL database:

jeff: can you check to see if my mysql server is down?

***: No, it is not down.

jeff: I can't connect to phpmyadmin

jeff: and

jeff: http://whatever

jeff: i get that error
