4/12    Can anyone recommend a good USB hub keyboard? I prefer clicky
        keys like the old IBM PC's. I prefer not to have internet shortcut
        buttons also.
        \_ All the clickey boards I know (model M) are PS/2.  You could get a
           PS/2->USB adapter...
           I have a clicky IBM PS/@ keyboard which has a "trackpoint" mouse in
           the middle, like on thinkpads.
        \_ I heard there's a really good mac compatible keyboard with the
           features you're looking for.
        \_ Pricey but good: http://halfkeyboard.com/tactilepro/index.php

2/19    I program a lot by sshing to a Linux cluster.  So I'm used to using
        Xemacs to code.  This works fine from a Linux or Windows workstation,
        but sometimes I have to use a Mac.  On Mac, the meta is usually
        bound to option, but that often doesn't work over ssh for some reason.
        This makes using emacs a real pain.  Any suggestions on how to fix it?
        (Other than "use vi")

8/29    There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
        on to soda.  Does that page still exist?  Can someone remind me of the
        URL please?  Thx.
        \_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
           \_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
              that implemented an ssh v1 client.  I think this page went away

12/21   In Emacs, how do I make it so that it will resize its screen
        when the maximum resolution of my monitor changes? When I
        use my laptop, my emacs is too big (and I can't resize it
        because the bottom-right corner is not accessible).
        \_ Which OS?  Can't you drag the top border (not a corner) to resize
           the height to be smaller?

        \_ Wow!  And the first VoIP phone!  Notice that the fans on that
           hardware look just like the fans these days.

8/1     Where is the mac desktop going to go? It seems all the development
        in sw/hw now is for the iphone, imac.  2 finger Gestures won't work
        on the desktop.  What happened to the xserve line?
        \_ Two finger gestures DO work on the desktop.  Have you used a new
           Apple laptop lately...they support up to 5 finger gestures.
           \_ you're making my point even harder, do the 5 finger gestures

5/26    Finished Braid; beautiful game. Good job, blojo. Looking forward to
        the Next Thing; will be more than happy to kick out another $15
        for quality like this. --erikred
        \_ I hate this game. I've been up until 1AM the last two nights.
           Normally I go to bed around 11:30PM. Sooo tired. But it is
           beautiful. First PC game I've purchased in 9 years.

2/20    I'm using Cygwin/X on XP.  All the X indows (xterm, emacs)
        seem to have a keyboard repeat rate and a repeat delay that's different
        than the one XP uses for other Windows apps.  When I do "mode con
        rate=xx delay=yy", it only changes Windows apps but not the X apps.
        How do I change the keyboard repeat rate and delay for X?  Thanks.
        \_ man xset

The Matias Tactile Pro Keyboard is built from the same premium keyswitch technology that Apple used in its original Apple Extended Keyboard, widely viewed as the best keyboard Apple ever made. Mac users who crave the feel of Apples quality keyboards of old will love this keyboard. The Tactile Pro Keyboard uses high-quality Alps mechanical keyswitches, with enhanced tactile feedback for greater comfort and faster typing speeds. No need to launch another application to find that special symbol. For quick and easy reference, the Tactile Pros key caps are clearly labeled with the international characters, accents, punctuation, and currency symbols that are available by holding down the Option or ShiftOption keys. With standard Eject and Volume control keys, the Tactile Pro keyboard has been carefully designed to match the look and features of Apples Pro Keyboard. For quickly attaching USB peripherals, nothing beats the convenience of an in-keyboard USB hub. No more reaching through the tangle of wires behind your computer to download photos from your digital camera. Works great with MP3 players, keyring hard drives, joysticks, and mice too. The Tactile Pro Keyboard is built to last, and comes with a 5 year warranty.
