unfolding disasters http://www.physics.drexel.edu/~wking/blog/archives/blogging/index.html notes and ideas vaguely related to AFM force spectroscopy en-us Trevor 2010-03-02T07:10:56-05:00 http://www.physics.drexel.edu/~wking/blog/archives/2008/08/29/index.html#e2008-08-29T15_49_26.txt Category tags and their ordering 2008-08-29T15:49:26-05:00 Trevor Blogging Apparently I think in almost-alphabetical order, since I just spent a while trying to figure out how to reorder the links in the "Categories" section of the main page's sidebar. For those who are interested, the ordering is set with the

: ${CATLINKS_FILTERCMD:=sort}

line in the weblog_links.sh plugin. Having found out that it's just alphebetical order, I'm fine with it. I just assumed it was locking in the unorganized timeline of me thinking up tags or something silly like that.

In the spirit of tagging, you can turn on category-specific feeds in your blog.conf file with

CATEGORY_FEEDS="1"
ATOM_CATFEEDS="1"
RSS2_CATFEEDS="1"
RSS_CATFEEDS="1"

or some variation on that theme. Funfunfun.

Adding my bit of noise to the global cacophony (and yes, I had to double check the spelling).

After looking around at a number of available packages, I feel like setting up something that I'm comfortable with would take more effort than I'm willing to spend here. If you would like to make a comment, email me.

I've just started, but snownews is a widely prepackaged text-mode RSS reader. Another text-mode program to add to my GUI-screwing toolbox (mutt, w3m, ...). Hey, X-servers don't grow on trees (or other people's M$ Windows boxes).

I had to apt-get install markdown to get this to work, since that's what nanoblogger uses to preform the markdown markup :p. See 

/usr/share/nanoblogger/plugins/entry/format/markdown.sh

Code (delimited with backticks '`'), gets formatted with <code> tags, so you need to set up your CSS with

code {font: monospace; font-weight: bold};

or something to that effect.

Oh, I suppose I should also link back to my homepage, in case anyone is interested :p.
