[techtalk] Techtalk FAQ

2000-06-06 Thread jenn

There is currently no techtalk FAQ. The rough outline exists, but is
really nothing more at this stage than a set of docbook tags and a
couple of headings. 

Working on it. Suggestions are accepted and appreciated.

[techtalk] friendly html/php editor on linux?

2000-06-06 Thread Erb, Maria

hi all,

great list!  I'm new but this is the best list I've ever been on.  Here's a
question:  I like to code in Allaire's HomeSite b/c of all the nice color
coded tags (it recognizes php, perl, javascript and other stuff) and other
ease-of-use features.  But my development platform is php/apache/mysql.
Does anyone know of a similar type editor for linux?  I currently use vi
with about 5 X-Term windows open at a time.  There is some type of "advanced
editor" on the KDE desktop which reads C, Java, and C++, but not PHP.  Is
EMACS the only way?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  thanks!

Maria

There's a list at http://www.itworks.demon.co.uk/phpeditors.htm

I can't vouch for any of 'em, because I just use Emacs.

Webmaker is pretty good, though it doesn't have quite the feature set of
HomeSite.  It's what I use for my web editing, though I think that's about
to change, as it's more than a bit behind the times.  Other ones which are
perhaps a bit more advanced, and have more current development are Bluefish
and Screem.

Here are the home pages for each:

WebMaker:  http://www.services.ru/linux/webmaker/
Screem:  http://www.screem.org
Bluefish:  http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/

Good luck!
Caity

Regards,
Caity

There is only one worth its salt these days...WebMaker for KDE/QT. It
has full syntax color highlighting and a dir tree for manipulating the
web layout. I love it. I tried quanta, recently, but WebMaker is still
better IMO. Both have an tabbed MDI inteface and are fully GPM capable.
And unlike VI, or Xemacs, the key copmbinations are logical and
standard.

Both can be found at Linux Tucows.

(Just so you know, I am an emacs convert. I only use emacs now from the
console).

Cheers
Shad

[techtalk] Call for tester and players.

2000-06-06 Thread Shad Young

Hey all. I wanted to take this time to ask you all for your help. 

Due to the efforts of many a fine coder and the continual support and
assistance of LinuxChix and OCLUG, we now have an alpha version of our
game Crimson Lust online at 

http://ns.midnt-x-press.com/linux/crimsonlust/

Crimson Lust is a SMAUG based Multi-user online medieval dungeon style
game. Only the first fifty levels are complete and we still have a few
bugs and features to work out. We could really use your feedback and
ideas. 

PS the code it GPL and the game is free.

Thanks all
Shad

Hi Shad,

I'm having trouble logging on to the telnet site.  Is SSH set up there? 
 If so, do I need a username and password?

[techtalk] tftp timing out

2000-06-06 Thread Nicoya Helm

I think I must be missing something very obvious here.  When I try to 
do a tftp transfer from another machine to mine (running solaris 8), 
the request is timing out, but from what I can see the server is 
running correctly on my machine, and both machines can see each other 
(ping, traceroute).  inetd.conf reads:

tftp  dgram udp6 wait root  /usr/sbin/in.tftpd  in.tftpd -s /tftpboot

and I've kill -1'd  it each time I've made any modifications. Any 
ideas?

~~~Nicoya...

Got it, love it. Granted, I am *hating* MySQL and PHP right now, 
but that's my own fault. Both books I have for them are great, 
I just haven't had the time to actually read them both yet, 
but I am still USING them to figure out this bear of a project 
I have to work on. This LinuxChic is in WAAAYYY over her head with
this one, and I told them that, I *told* them that I did NOT have
the technical knowledge to handle this project on my own, but then,
oh well! My knowledge of PHP goes far enough to modify a script to 
tweak it a little to what I want, and yet this stinking shopping cart
project got thrown on my lap. ::grrr::  But then, I digress! 
I hardily recommend the New Riders MySQL book, 50 bucks, and worth it.
I have the Wrox Professional PHP programming book, good so far, but it
would be better to start out slowly and actually do the projects in 
the book instead of having to skip ahead five chapters ;-)
