Harshal Patil's blog Attempt

A very common thing while doing any kind of project is using repository. I tend to forget these commands every now and then. That's why this svn checkout http://fileextensiontype.unfuddle.com/svn/fileextensiontype_fi/ local_directory_name svn status svn add * svn commit You may also have to do this export EDITOR=vim

One feature I really miss in Linux is Word-Web. We can have word-web in Linux using wine but pressing the hot-key when word is selected does not activate it. Thus, we can use "gnome-dictionary" with "xbindkeys" and "xclip" to get same kind of functionality. yum install xbindkeys yum install xclip xbindkeys --defaults > ~/.xbindkeysrc xbindkeys -k Now a small window will appear and you can get code for the key-combination pressed. Use this combination in configuration file ~/.xbindkeysrc. (I got m:0x1c + c:52 for alt+ctrl+e) cat "gnome-dictionary $(xclip -o)" m:0x1c + c:52 END echo "xbindkeys &" >> ~/.bashrc killall -HUP xbindkeys Equivalent to "delimiter cat" is "echo -e". That's it. Just select any word you don't know and press your key combination. We will get its meaning.

Many people complain that though Linux is in C they don't have good IDE for C development. Though there the things mentioned here are not great but they are good enough to help you in C development. 1. Cscope find . -name '*.c' > cscope.files cscope -i cscope.files cscope.files is default file name, thus just cscope command would work. To exit, you can type Ctrl+D and to see help, you can type "?". 2.Ctags cd /path/to/your/project ctags -R * vim -t Once inside a file, hitting ctrl-] while the cursor is over a function/class name, Vim will attempt to open the file with that tag. Pressing ctrl-t will take you back a step. To exit, , regular ":q" should work.
