I created a file mymime.xml

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<mime-info xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info">
    <mime-type type="text/myapp">
        <comment>my format</comment>
        <glob pattern="*.myformat"/>
    </mime-type>

1. create a new repository in Github, don't add a readme or anything.

2. clone it on your computer

3. add the original repository (the one you want to fork) as upstream source.

   git remote add upstream [url]

4. fetch and merge upstream.

I have an old Asus EEE PC 701 (4GB SSD 2GB RAM) with Crunchbang and since Crunchbang development stopped, decided to try Lubuntu in it. So I made a Lubuntu 16.04 i386 bootable flash using unetbootin and a 8GB pen drive under Ubuntu.

At the system start, selecting the option Try Lubuntu without installing gives me a non-pae cpu error. Using tab I see that this option is made like this.

/casper/vmlinuz initrd=/casper/initrd.lz file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash --- persistent 

So I try forcepae option to boot. This will boot, but error on [ OK ] Started Update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes. To fix, we need to boot twice, first let's add nomodeset.

/casper/vmlinuz initrd=/casper/initrd.lz file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash nomodeset forcepae -- forcepae --- persistent

FIX THE VERSION IN THE CODE

#taging to later create release
git tag 0.1.0 -m "My first tag."
git push --tags origin master

#submit to tests
python3 setup.py register -r pypitest
python3 setup.py sdist upload -r pypitest

        pypi = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('https://pypi.python.org/pypi')

Simple struct declaration

struct Pos {
 int x;
 int y;
}

Pos initialPosition;
