xmlformat is a configurable formatter (or “pretty-printer”) for XML documents. It provides control over indentation, line-breaking, and text wrapping. These properties can be defined on a per-element basis.

In Ruby and Python so take your pick and go at it.

I am a Gnome fan. Gnome will take over the Linux desktop (not that it needs taking over). There has already been a billion of these types of articles so I figured one more would not hurt everyone. Did I mention that I am a Gnome fan?

If you are running Linux on a laptop no doubt you would love to find a nice little app like NetStumbler that will find wireless hotspots for you. No worries, I found that nice little app for you.

A great article for anyone with little or no experience with cron and crontab. Having things automated for you definitely allows for you to find time looking for other things to automate.

Not just another weblog, net.narrative environments is also a research platform exploring the dynamics of networked culture. Laura reflects on both netwar and open source, and on the tools used to produce and evolve the site itself.

For any Linux folks looking for a pretty sweet wallpaper (or anyone who loves Linux and penguins), I have found it.

You can not imagine how many times I have gone through the day looking for a syntax highlighting system done in javascript and by some crazy luck I just happened to run across that today. Maybe I should start playing the lottery as well.

Looking to figure out how to setup a mail server for you and the other 438 people in your family? Well fortunately I have found just the place for you to go check out. No really I have. No mention of your family members in here, but it does help a lot with the mail […]
