mapping <C-F9> in gvim: no response XFCE 4.6.1/XFWM on Xubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid" with Gnome 2.30.2. In fact most CTRL key combinations seem not to work as expected e.g. <C-9> doesn't show up as anything either but <C-V>, <C-K> do work so the control key itself isn't broken. |

Why could the size of the “dot file” /. exceed 4096? (2) Sadly, no longer. This used to be possible on old UNIX versions. |

How to do multiline search and replace text (delete) recursively 3. The command is correct like that. You can change the $i.tmp to just $i at the end to overwrite the files in-place (if you look at the sedml script, it uses $1.tmp to make the changes and then moves the file to $2 at the end, if successful).
4. The command as given will work if the delimiters are exactly as given and there's no # symbols between the delimiters.
(You may want to check that it works correctly on one or two files manually, sedml FILE 's@#c3284d#[^#]*#/c3284d#@@g' FILE.tmp and see if the result is what you expect (this version doesn't overwrite the original). |

How to do multiline search and replace text (delete) recursively 1. I'd personally make a directory bin in your home directory and put all your own scripts in there, then to add it to your path you can add export PATH="$PATH:~/bin" to one of your startup files (.bashrc).
2. [^#]* : The brackets usually mean 'any of these characters', except that the caret at the beginning turns it into 'any except these characters'. So [^#] matches any character that's not a #. The * at the end means "any number of", so you're matching any sequence of characters that doesn't contain a #.
running out of space ... |

How to do multiline search and replace text (delete) recursively For your other question on what you have to escape: as long as you use single-quotes in the shell, and the pattern does not contain any more # characters between the delimiters (which I wouldn't expect in a base64_encoded string), you should be able to do 's@#c3284d#[^#]*#/c3284d#@@g' with no further escaping. The only things you'd need to escape within the quotes are sed metacharacters and the s delimiter (@ in this case so you're ok). |

gajim blinking trayicon notification From a look at the current gajim sources on my machine, the answer is probably "not without patching the program". Getting rid of the blinking "feature" requires commenting out one line, changing the icon in this case is a bit more complicated because you'd have to make and load the new icon. If you're familiar with python and interested, I can point you to the code that would need changing. |

Trying to setup sudo user How exactly are you opening the terminal - is it a link in the menu, or something else? If you open a shell and type "sudo ls" in there, does it still ask for a password? (What I suspect is that your command to open/close terminal is actually doing something other than just calling sudo.) |
