A Teency Bit More Housekeeping

2022-05-17

I’m switching the static site generator I ues for this blog from Pelican to Nikola.

There are a number of reasons for this - better/more theme options, a more active development community, and some really swank features I just love.

The up-shot however is that the RSS feeds will need to change. The new links are clearly signposted on the header at the top of the blog.

Trying out VimRepress

2012-02-09

VimRePress

In an ongoing effort to immerse myself in Vim as much as possible, I’m trying out a plugin called VimRepress - a fork of the popular Vimpress plugin.

Installing

Unfortunately, getting it running with MacVim on MacOS X Lion is a bit of a bear, but thankfully Paulo Poiati wrote an excellent article on getting the job done.

Ah, Sweet Sanity!

Woo. So, as I indicated in my old blog, I have switched to Wordpress. Typo is nifty and all, but it’s still hackerware and seems unlikely to veer from that course any time soon.

Much as I love Ruby, I am still clueless about Rails and truthfully, even web development in general (I have now learned the basics of CSS - but apparently not enough to be dangerous yet, and I *still* don’t know Javascript.)
