Just a quick clipboard slip/slurp I put together because I didn't find anything similar, don't know if it's useful for anyone but found it invaluable when getting large strings being returned from the repl and sticking the result in an editor for more car
(defn get-clipboard []
(.getSystemClipboard (java.awt.Toolkit/getDefaultToolkit)))
(defn slurp-clipboard []
(try
(.getTransferData (.getContents (get-clipboard) nil) (java.awt.datatransfer.DataFlavor/stringFlavor))
(catch java.lang.NullPointerException e nil)))
(defn spit-clipboard [text]
(.setContents (get-clipboard) (java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection. text) nil))

Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi.

Answer by Jim Dennis on Stack Overflow question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1218390/what-is-your-most-productive-shortcut-with-vim/1220118#1220118

Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi.

You mention cutting with yy and complain that you almost never want to cut whole lines. In fact programmers, editing source code, very often want to work on whole lines, ranges of lines and blocks of code. However, yy is only one of many way to yank text into the anonymous copy buffer (or "register" as it's called in vi).

The "Zen" of vi is that you're speaking a language. The initial y is a verb. The statement yy is a simple statement which is, essentially, an abbreviation for 0 y$:

0 go to the beginning of this line. y yank from here (up to where?)

Seesaw REPL Tutorial
; A REPL-based, annotated Seesaw tutorial
; Please visit https://github.com/daveray/seesaw for more info
;
; This is a very basic intro to Seesaw, a Clojure UI toolkit. It covers
; Seesaw's basic features and philosophy, but only scratches the surface
; of what's available. It only assumes knowledge of Clojure. No Swing or
; Java experience is needed.
;
; This material was first presented in a talk at @CraftsmanGuild in
; Ann Arbor, MI.

How to write an image file to an SD card under Mac OS X (for Raspberry Pi)

Find the SD card device

In this case, the SD card is /dev/disk4. DO NOT get this wrong or you may destroy all the data on the wrong disk/card/drive.
