# Hello, and welcome to makefile basics.

# You will learn why `make` is so great, and why, despite its "weird" syntax,
# it is actually a highly expressive, efficient, and powerful way to build

Code highlighting for Keynote presentations

Step 0:

Get Homebrew installed on your mac if you don't already have it

Step 1:

Install highlight. "brew install highlight". (This brings down Lua and Boost as well)

Step 2:

require 'rubygems'
require 'mechanize'
FIRST_NAME = 'FIRST_NAME'
LAST_NAME = 'LAST_NAME'
PHONE = 'PHONE'
EMAIL = 'EMAIL@provider.com'
PARTY_SIZE = 2
SCHEDULE_RANGE = { :start_time => '19:00', :end_time => '20:30' }

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

A Gentle Introduction to Prepack, Part 1

Note:
