Greetings At 12 noon tomorrow - Friday - I will be demonstrating some of the simpler things that can be done on the bash command line to somebody who is a brand newbie at the bash CLI by using the gems client/server system, which is described thus:-
"The gems system is a client/server application that allows to show a single console session in different computers or terminals in real time". Folks might be interested in watching from the sidelines. ( there is no sound ) We are using POTS for that. If there is interest I could look into setting up a shoutcast server or something. Download it thus:- wget http://gforge.lug.fi.uba.ar/frs/download.php/30/gems-1.1.tar.gz or wget http://berty.dyndns.org/gems-1.1.tar.gz ( preferably the former ) extract it:- tar xvzf gems-1.1.tar.gz build it:- cd gems-1.1 make install it:- sudo make install It installs into the /usr/local tree. At 12 noon Tomorrow, you may watch my keystrokes:- open a terminal and say:- gems-client berty.dyndns.org I'll start the server some time shortly before 12 so folks can make a connection. While I'd quite like to know how many connections it will handle, I reserve the right to close the connection for the extended audience if the number of connections become so large that my computer bogs down or something. NB: This is not an active shell, just a view. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell
