Cheers, Axman6 * Despite the url, this is a free font, for windows and mac (and likely linux too, but... meh >_>) Just to add to your list of fonts, my favourite has Anonymous [http://www.ms-studio.com/FontSales/anonymous.html]* I find it looks great anti-aliased at most sizes, and it’s very clear.

I would've hoped that the man page had a reference to the environment variable, but it does not. Where id you find that out?

]]> Comment on Leopard review, a bit late by Jon Sterling http://bandes-storch.net/blog/2007/11/15/leopard-review-a-bit-late/comment-page-1/#comment-1172 Jon Sterling Sat, 13 Sep 2008 20:43:13 +0000 http://bandes-storch.net/blog/2007/11/15/leopard-review-a-bit-late/#comment-1172 Hmm. I find myself using Stacks quite a bit. I don't think I could survive without Spaces. I used Linux for a while, and I really enjoyed the separate desktops feature that was ripped off from Spaces, but I like the real thing better. I am new to Xcode, so I won't notice any changes, but I did like the fact that it would tell me exactly where my errors were. I had been programming for GNUStep (an implementation of OpenStep), and the Xcode "equivelant" was pathetic. I would spend forever trying to figure out what went wrong. And GORM, a descendant of the ancestor of Interface Builder, was highly buggy. It is really nice to be using devel tools that don't crap out on you every few minutes. One thing that really pisses me off about Finder is that it doesn't automatically arrange your files you have to ask it to every time. So, if you resize your window, you still have a little tiny column of files, or whatever. Also, if you make file icons bigger or smaller globally, you still have to manually rearrange in each folder to make icons not be all crunched together. Hmm. I find myself using Stacks quite a bit.

A new look to the family website, a new day back at our old home, and all sorts of other milestones (e.g., new paint jobs!) to mark the transitions. Congratulations on your increased skills and abilities from the days when you first started this (yes, it was five years ago, when you were nine!). Keep up the good work! Mimmy Great job, Jacob!
