# Comments added 6 March 2014.
# Implementation of the MetaWeblog API for my personal Ruby static blog generator.
# This is not even nearly idiomatic Ruby. There are all kinds of issues.
# (What's with the method interiors all being mushed-up together?)
# But -- it's also worked flawlessly for five years without my having to edit it.
# It won't work for anyone else as-is — but if it helps anyone
# to do a MetaWeblog API implementation, then cool.

A new user's guide to SublimeText 2. Estimated reading time: 2 mins. Estimated workthrough time: 12 minutes.

Make it useful

  • Install Package Control. For SublimeText 2, paste the following in Terminal:
import urllib2,os; pf='Package Control.sublime-package'; ipp = sublime.installed_packages_path(); os.makedirs( ipp ) if not os.path.exists(ipp) else None; urllib2.install_opener( urllib2.build_opener( urllib2.ProxyHandler( ))); open( os.path.join( ipp, pf), 'wb' ).write( urllib2.urlopen( 'http://sublime.wbond.net/' +pf.replace( ' ','%20' )).read()); print( 'Please restart Sublime Text to finish installation')

From here on out, use Package Control to install everything. +Shift+P, then type Install to get a list of installable packages you can 'livesearch through. After installing plugins, they should be running.

Photo management script. This script will copy photos from "~/Pictures/iPhone Incoming" into a tree the script creates, with folders representing month and years, and photo names timestamped. Completely based on the work of the amazing Dr. Drang; see here: http://www.leancrew.com/all-this/2013/10/photo-management-via-the-finder/ You can see more…

A simple shell command parallelizer.
/* parallelize: reads commands from stdin and executes them in parallel.
The sole argument is the number of simultaneous processes (optional) to
run. If omitted, the number of logical CPUs available will be used.
Build: gcc -pthread parallelize.c -o parallelize
Demo: (for i in {1..10}; do echo "echo $i ; sleep 5" ; done ) | ./parallelize
