My favorite nc trick of late is using it in combination with ssh_config(5)'s "ProxyCommand" directive. "ProxyCommand" tells ssh to use the specified command's stdin and stdout to communicate with the destination host, rather than establish

Perhaps I'm biased because it's how I first learned vi ~15 years ago, but I still think the best way to learn vi(m) is by running vimtutor . It copies the tutorial text file to /tmp and launches vim against it. The text first teaches the

emacs tells you what "M-x" means on the introduction screen each time you start it. The only "intuitive" interface is the nipple. After that, it's all learned.

It is a wiki, if you treat it like one. That's what's so cool about it. Two years ago, we moved the Philadelphia LUG website ( http://phillylinux.org/ ) from a set of static HTML pages to a subversion repository. I dropped in a post-com
