After years of using UNIX/Linux, issuing the command cd from the shell is second-nature, like opening my front door or brushing my teeth.  But changing directories like this becomes tiresome if you don't have some kind of auto-completion in the terminal, and have to enter the entire directory path.

I just installed Autojump, which creates a small database of your most frequently used directories and allows you to jump to them with a few keystrokes instead of dialing in the entire path.

Well done.

Sat, 14 Feb 2009 01:13:00 -0800 Filipino Time http://wyclif.posterous.com/filipino-time http://wyclif.posterous.com/filipino-time

As a Western traveler, I've discovered that there are 4 types of time in the Philippines:

  • Standard time (professionals and students only)
  • Filipino time (the most prevalent type; 1 hour +/- late)
  • Indian time (no-show for appointment)

Then there's Mañana time, so forget about GTD today.
