Due to googlebot and the load it was generating on my server at the colo, I had to move svn.annvix.org from my primary webserver to a spare …
more ...Having some issues with screen. I've been running mutt under screen for a few weeks now (and irssi) which has been working fine but it wasn't until today that I put two and two together, namely that when I cut-n-paste from a terminal with mutt in it, I was getting …
