Why this site loads so fast ? The reason is we are using Apache 2.2.10 with libphp5.so

Earlier we were using CGI.

I also tried PHP-FastCGI

In this tutorial I explain how to search and replace strings in VIM. VIM is the best tool for programmers. It supports almost all languages (may exclude VB, VC, VC++).

Its a superb editor with tons of features. Yeah a little complicated thing for newbies. But you have their full support mailing list, vimtutor - the application which teaches you VIM online (not on the web!).

So how to search and replace strings in VIM ?

Searching-

There are two ways to search - forward and backward.

Searching forward means from the point where you are currently to the end of the file.

Searching backward means from the point where you are currently to the top of the file.

To search forward,

Exit Insert Mode by pressing Escape key. This will make VIM work on command mode.

Type

/

If you have spaces in you must escape them with a backslash(\).

For Ex: /WORD1\ WORD2

The above command will search for WORD1 WORD2 (note the space in the words).

To search backward all steps are same except instead of / you use ? (question mark).

To Find Next, (forward) press n, (backward) press N [Shift+N].

You can also use Regular Expressions in search string. More about searching in next tutorial.

Yakuyake is a Virtual-Terminal (VT) basically for KDE but works well with GNOME also.

This is a special kind of terminal.

On KDE once started, it will start automatically on every login of yours on KDE.

So what's special in this Terminal Emulator that made us to post about it ?

Yeah there is something special in this.

And that is its hiding ability.

The default key is F12 (Function Key 12).

When you start Yakuyake it gets hidden. Pressing F12 will bring it front and again pressing F12 will hide it. It doesn't get minimised so its not going to take up your TaskBar.

It also supports multiple tabs like that of gnome-terminal and konsole.
