Recently I had the pleasure to work with CSV files. And it ended in a CSV hell for me! The functionality I wanted wasn't available anywhere (As often happens when you provide custom solutions to your clients!) The client didn't want to rely completely on the system! (I question the need for the system in such circumstances, but the client wanted the system! Brilliant! Kind of like 'hey, I'll be travelling in Bus but just in case lets have that train available and tracks laid out!) Anyway, I couldn't get them to change their preference and so this hell started. Now the situation is the client uses OpenOffice and/or MS Excel to edit the CSV's. They have excelsheets for the data and they export that to csv. I assumed I could write a parser for CSV and that would be it. But when I got to the task I just couldn't figure out the correct logic. One logic worked for some and failed for some other data and the other worked for some and failed for some other. Aft...

I love working on things with music running in the background. The beat is a necessary thing to help me concentrate on my work. Also it's a way for me to get full concentration in my work. I don't use music libraries, instead I just play the albums one at a time depending on my mood. On windows nothing beats Winamp's explorer shortcut which lets me play my music folderwise, and since I have my music well arranged it's just a matter of few clicks to get the groove. On Linux though things are a bit different. The functionality available in winamp/windows is just not available anywhere. The best I can manage is with opening Totem and dragging the folder to it. Banshee and Rhythmbox don't accept dragged directories. In fact they even won't even accept m3u playlist. (This might be mitigated in latest releases - I tried on Ubuntu 10.10. Will try the same thing on 11.10 and update here.) This is certainly FAIL for people like me who don't like (or don't kno...

#!/bin/sh $FILENAME="RECORDS" for FILE in `find . -name $FILENAME` do ## Process $FILE echo "FILE: $FILE" cat "$FILE" | ( # Read Header but don't process it read line # Read records while read line do echo $line done ) done The above shell script code searches through current directory (and subdirectories) for all files with name RECORDS. It then reads the files one by one and processes them line by line. Eg. If your record file is like follows "Name","TelNo" "A","1" "B","2" ... Then you could put following code to read off all names in while loop. $NAME=`echo $line| cut -d"," -f1` echo $NAME

          About four months ago, I pulled down the Shutter! On blogging, on most of new things I was involved in, and I killed a few old processes too. There wasn't much happening around for me. The world meanwhile has moved ahead. Unity has seen some noticeable improvements, gnome 3 is also getting better, both of them picking good ideas from each other, Ubuntu is trying to break into tablet space, Linux Mint not wanting to disappoint many fans of classic desktop has chosen MGSE (Mint Gnome Shell Extensions ) to lead the way for them and they are also working on Mate - A fork of Classic Gnome (gnome 2.32). Meanwhile there are other people who have switched to XFCE/ LXDE etc.            Lots and lots happening around with Fedora and OpenSUSE both releasing major versions that look and feel promising. I have downloaded Fedora 16 but I'm yet waiting to get a spare USB to put it on my Lapto...

Well well well, whoever would have thought of this. It's been a journey of more than a year and I'm gonna miss sharing all the special stuff I come across. But it's time for me to take a break. Will I be coming back? I don't know! Do I promise to come back? No, I don't promise things that I am not sure of. Can you find me somewhere? Well, I'm heading for Hawai, cya there! Kiddin. I'll be around and probably won't vanish suddenly (Fingers crossed on this one.). Well, that's it then. Goodbye social networking! Goodbye Internet! Mails will have to be stay alive but there too, goodbye any extra services. And finally goodbye everyone!

It is always a good idea to keep an open eye on ports listening on your computer. The easiest method to do that is to install Nmap ( sudo apt-get install nmap ), and run sudo nmap localhost soon after installation. That should tell you what ports are open out of the box. Run Nmap often and if you see a new entry in the list of open ports that you are not familiar with, try to access it from a browser ( localhost:XYZ, where XYZ is the port number). If that does not tell you anything useful, consult Wikipedia's List of TCP and UDP port numbers .

VMWare is a deep install - means it has many components that interface with the system very closely. So when it comes time to uninstall it, we find ourselves in a flux. There is a script called vmware-uninstall that you can use which will help you get the job done. $sudo vmware-uninstall  After we run this script it shows that it's deprecated (in version VMWare Workstation 5.0.1) and you should use vmware-installer --uninstall-product product-name . So we try it. $sudo vmware-installer --uninstall-product vmware-workstation where vmware-workstation is the product I have installed here. Hmmm, this did the job for me, but I remember another time when this failed for me. In such circumstances we can manually uninstall a VMWare Product.

I was using Yahoo Pipes to club together posts from my two blogs and put them to Facebook. Recently I was playing with Pipes and messed up the Pipe for both blogs. This stopped the feed on Facebook. I have continuous updates here than my other photography related blog so I thought I would connect only this blog to Facebook! To do this I went to Facebook's Notes section and I couldn't find the Import Link. I searched around. I turned the corners. I looked in the dark. And I looked under the mountain too. No settings, no import,no nothing! I turned up to Google and after half an hours search still couldn't find it! Wow, I said! Then I thought to look into places it shouldn't be. So from My Notes i.e. Facebook Home > Notes > My Notes page I clicked Write A Note [Button at the top right corner of middle column]. Here I looked around, and clicked on My Notes in the left column. And Aaha! I found the sacred "Edit Import Settings " link at the bottom in left...

Oooooh, I can imagine myself working on some obscure code while standing in front of my monitor which is connected to my Desktop Rig which has Latest Ubuntu 20.10 with 4D Unity 3.0. I'm using hand (and leg, perhaps a tail too if I manage to grow one by then) gestures to modify something and unity's all sparkling and moving things around. And yeah it's got a voice too. And then there are global menus that announce some (again!) 4D notifications about my neighbor (she) out sunbathing, my dog (lewdly) observing her, and Unity telling me - "Hun, the dog won't listen!"(Virtual pout!) Yeah that's Vaibhav D for you, (a)live from Yr 2020 just 8 yrs ahead.

I installed Kubuntu 11.04 on day one on a test machine because in my organization we use it as the OS of choice(I keep my organization in my prayers! LOL). I have been using it since then on regular basis. The machine I have here is an AMD Sempron 2.7 GHz on a NVidia mainboard with integrated graphics. (Yeah I hear that groan! ) So anyway I had thought I am prepared and there'll be a few problems and a few crashes. The user experience would suck and overall I would have only headache albeit small.

Until yesterday I had Linux Mint 10 Julia as my Backup OS of choice but finally I have gotten tired of it too. Need something light - feather light, something that doesn't let you do much but is fast and does the few things with aplomb that it does do! Is there any answer to this question? Of course in world of Linux there's an answer to each and everything. I haven't yet reached to a level where I would start with a Minimal install and build upwards from there so I picked up Linux Mint XFCE Edition. It's light - lighter than Win XP. E.g. XP eats ~150MB at startup but mint takes 25Megs less. The speed is seen to be believed. There are no fancy effects but then if we are looking for snappy desktop who needs smoothly opening windows?

Many of you are like me. have huge music sitting on our hard drives and we just load it into our favourite media players and put it on shuffle. E.G. I have approx 4.4k English songs and similar amount of hindi songs. So I find using any GUI player difficult. I have tried many a media players but only a few can handle this big playlists (and that with shufffle). My current favourite Banshee also fails at this task, just gets horribly slow. So I thought a lot on this problem and knew that the GUI progs have to go. I'll have to use something consolar. I mean a console program will survive where all these heavyweights failed. I just need some music shuffled around and a one key next song function. I remembered of MPlayer - The Sweet Ultimate Console Media Player. I rummaged around in man files etc and came out with ultimate solution. Yes! I would use mplayer, and a couple of options with it would give me exactly the solution that I need. MPlayer with -playlist option supports playlist...

The latest Ubuntu is out. And with that Canonical has brought a number of changes. I downloaded the ISO right away and used usb-creator to put (burn???) it to a USB Drive. My eMachines e727 is well supported so I booted to Live Version straight away. As usual ubuntu didn't take long to start and get me to the unity screen. I am yet to try out Gnome 3 so I can't tell between the two. But I did spend some time with Unity and I also made one of my friends use it and tell me his impression. My impression isn't much here because I felt Unity was okay - just okay, nothing ground breaking. I have a few gripes about the placement of things and the BIG app dock on the right.

Holy S***! That's what I uttered when I stumbled on the following link: http://www.bestechvideos.com/tag/meet-the-gimp GIMP Video Tutorials! About 130 of them! I am downloading one right now!

I also have used GIMP to put text atop images and create cool banners etc.

source: http://frederic99.blogspot.com/2007/10/resizing-pictures-in-batch-under-linux.html Hi to all! I have discovered a very easy way to resize a bunch of pictures using Linux. First, you need to install imagemagick: [CODE] sudo apt-get install imagemagick [\CODE] Then, what I did was to copy all the pictures I wanted to resize into a temporay folder. Finally, using the command line, I went to the previous folder, and typed the following: [CODE] mogrify -resize 800x600 *.jpg [\CODE] and all the pictures were resized. Of course, you can choose any size you want. Instead of"mogrify", you can use "convert" which does not replace the picture but instead creates a new one with the desired size. You can also rotate pictures. For instance: [CODE] mogrify -rotate 90 picture.jpg [/CODE] where "90" is the number of degrees you wish to rotate picture.jpg. Here is a link with more infos on imagemagick: http://polishlinux.org/apps/grap...

For last few weeks all I am doing on my laptop is editing some documents. The work is boring, very regular and doesn't need more than 10% utilization of my brain. Sucks! But they say "not everybody shall climb everests, most will run home to office and back! And it will be boring!" So it's some quite time - I start the machine, put up the headphones, queue up coupe of albums in Totem and open the two documents - one a scanned copy and the other is the digital one. And then I go on typing, and typing and ........

It looks nice, isn't it? I wanted to try Docky for a long time. But since it's very closely integrated in Gnome 3.0 / Gnome Do that kept me from trying it on. But today I was feeling very adventurous. So I installed it and spent some time adjusting it to fit my needs.

A guy sits down in a Cafe and asks for the hot chili. The waitress says, "The guy next to you got the last bowl." He looks over and sees that the guy's finished his meal, but the chili bowl is still full. He says, "Are you going to eat that?" The other guy says, "No. Help yourself." He takes it and starts to eat it. When he gets about half way down, his fork hits something. He looks down sees a dead mouse in it, and he pukes! the chili back into the bowl. The other guy says, "That's about as far as I got, too."

Two weeks ago was my forty-fifth birthday, and I wasn't feeling too hot that morning anyway.

For many days I have been working on this problem, but every time I started work on this, something would come and interrupt me. From the brief research I did, I knew that there's not much data on the net about this problem and if anything is there then I'm not searching with the right keywords.  Anyway let me tell you what the problem was: I wanted to enter Marathi sentences, special characters etc in MySQL and have them encrypted. Now encryption was the catch - otherwise it worked alright. I am using AES ENCRYPTION here. And I found out that normal alphabets fared okay but special characters used to get screwed. e.g. the degree sign would be replaced by something like Ǻ.  Now, I was in a bad fix here since I wasn't much familiar with BLOBs. But I vowed that I would overcome every limitation and I would find the solution to this problem. Head on to see what mountains I crossed!!! Image©  http://bloomillustration.blogspot.com
