This is one of the very few times I'm feeling giddy coz of geeky reasons. Our work PCs were replaced with powerful laptops so now it feels like my usual dev processes are faster. And since I'm using Ubuntu (10.10), I also feel like I'm protecting this *huge* disk space from viruses. haha!
AND since we have to complete the PC shift by next week, I am forced to cleanup/dispose my dirty files in my old PC, and start installing everything from scratch. Normally I'd HATE that, but somehow it makes me feel wiser, knowing I used to be SO stupid when it comes to Linux. hehe.
Anyway, just wanna share some shortcuts I recently learned:
-----
Ubuntu: (I'm using 10.10. I'm not sure with the other versions. hehe)
f3 on an open directory - shows/hides a right pane displaying another file explorer
(f6 to switch the focus to the other pane)
f9 on an open directory - shows/hides the "Places" portion at the left side
Firefox:
ctrl + shift + t = open recently closed tab
(do this again to open the 2nd to the last tab closed, and so on)
Netbeans:
alt + shift + f = fix code indentions
Note: I think it's better to download and run the netbeans installer from their site, rather than to install it from the Synaptic Package Manager. When I did the latter, my netbeans lacked the plugins I needed (maven, subversion, etc) so I had to install one by one. Though both are in v6.9! Then later on a bug came up for some reasons - netbeans opens up itself again whenever I exit the application. "kill" command didn't help, it was being launched over and over and over. then I realized too that in the editor, my files in ascii (codes in /uXXXX) are not automatically converted to native (russian characters for example) not like in my old PC. It drove me crazy!
So I removed everything and reinstalled using the installer from their site (here). now my netbeans is bug free and complete, without the need to install "my basic" plugins!

Right now, generally, I FEEL NEAT. I feel like I'm starting my year RIGHT ...work-wise at least. hehe! I am so happy. :)
