Updated Apr 5 2019:

because this is a gist from 2011 that people stumble into and maybe you should AES instead of 3DES in the year of our lord 2019.

some other notes:

Prereq:

apt-get install zsh
apt-get install git-core

Getting zsh to work in ubuntu is weird, since sh does not understand the source command. So, you do this to install zsh

wget https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh -O - | zsh

In penance for cracking stupid jokes on Twitter, here's my Emacs cheat sheet. Emacs has a steep learning curve, so I've tried to order them by importance so you could learn them in stages.

One overall rule of thumb: pay attention to the minibuffer (the line at the bottom of the editor). It will often guide you through a process, and also gives you hints about what state you're in, such as the middle of a multi-chord sequence.

The other rule of thumb: when in doubt, C-g it out.

Basics (mandatory)

You simply can't get by without having these at your fingertips.

/*

  Watch out, os.IsExist(err) != !os.IsNotExist(err)

  They are error checkers, so use them only when err != nil, and you want to handle
  specific errors in a different way!
  
  Their main purpose is to wrap around OS error messages for you, so you don't have to test
  for Windows/Unix/Mobile/other OS error messages for "file exists/directory exists" and
  "file does not exist/directory does not exist"
