How to save temp data Stefan: this sounds like exactly what you're looking for - /media/ram will act like a device (like /dev/null), and will take up no disk space: any files you create in that directory will only be created "in memory" (i.e. in your RAM), and will be lost when you unmount /media/ram in the last step. |

vim vs. emacs… and no, this is not a flame war This goes double for connecting to slow servers across dodgy connections: the one editor they're guaranteed to have (it is in the Unix spec, I think?) is vi, and vi's command mode makes it much easier to edit files with fewer keystrokes when each keystroke takes several seconds to appear on your screen. Of course, step #1 is usually installing vim :) |

What is the real difference between “apt-get” and “aptitude”? (How about “wajig”?) This used to be true, but I know my apt-get has an apt-get autoremove command for removing packages installed only as dependencies. I don't know when this feature was added, but one website suggests it might have happened with Debian Lenny (June 2010). |
