This is a pref pane which allows you to remap some system keys. I set the fn key to act like ctrl and the right lower enter key as forward delete. Thanks Trung! Double Command

Railsday is over and I had no sleep for the last 20 hours! But we (Trung and me) managed to create something and commit the stuff just in time. Rails is/was a contest where we had 24 hours time to create an web application based on the fantastic framework Ruby on Rails. There was a lot of Apple stuff to win and damn I wish we won. Our submission called Cockpit is a virtual desktop manager inside a browser where one can load any external site in a new small (resizeable) windows. Just in case one wants to keep an eye on some sites at the same time.

Yubnub

Yubnub
Found this interesting thing. It was the Railsday 2005 winner. It is a social commandline for the web. Anybody can create custom commands that achieve something that needs some parameters. Take the command “gim” for example. You can type “gim porsche 911″. The command gim takes a name as parameter and searches for “porsche 911″ pictures. Easy huh? There are allready more than 11 thousand custom commands. And you can create ones yourself. There are also Mac/Linux/Windows frontends for yubnub, firefox extensions and so on.
