Vim and gst REPL
There is an extremely valuable (and small) vim plugin slime.vim out there, with a nice description of the how, why and what at the author's site: http://technotales.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/like-slime-for-vim/
With this simple plugin, you can edit your code in a vim "worksheet" and send it over to *any* REPL (bash, gst, sbcl, vim, ...) that is running in a screen session.
Emacs-ifying vim's autoindent
I switch very often between Emacs and vim for my editing, and for this reason I've set up Emacs to use viper (vi emulation) and a couple more hacks that emulate vim's visual mode as well.
Iliad 0.6 is out!
Hi,
I am happy to announce the first public release of the Iliad web framework
(http://iliad.bioskop.fr).
Iliad features:
- standalone stateful widgets
- nice urls with a simple routing system
- simple API
- easy to setup and deploy (no complicated configuration step)
- javascript layer to update widgets using AJAX. If javascript is not enabled,
the behaviour remains the same by making normal requests.
You can download it from the svn repository:
svn co http://bioskop.fr/svn/gst/iliad/tags/0.6.0
OnlineTester: An Arcane Adventure. Part 4: More Widgets, AJAX requests
On the menu for the final part of the series are three widgets that make up the meat of the application, i.e. the part with which the students will be interacting the most.
OnlineTester: An Arcane Adventure. Part 3: Application, Widgets and View Methods
Let's hitch a ride with an incoming request to our designated test URL http://localhost:4080/onlinetest and take a look at the scenery. Be warned, though, that I'm easily scared and tend to close my eyes when passing through a tunnel.
