Since I've been back at college, I've been using some things that I don't use otherwise... it's quite a different world here than in Silicon Valley.
- Spellcheck
- aspell -c <file> spellcheck a file
- aspell -a interactive spellchecker
- PDF-related
- evince <file> to launch a GUI PDF viewer
- pdftohtml <file> to create three files, one which contains a table of contents, another which contains the text, and a third which combines both with frames
- gs ghostscript
- apropos pdf list things that your system can do with PDF files... there's a lot of them!
- How to open a new tab in a GNOME terminal (How is this back to school? Well, I'm trying to eliminate all mouse usage now that I'm using this laptop everywhere...)
- Ctrl+Shift+T Open tab
- Ctrl+Shift+W Close tab
- Ctrl+PageUp/Down select Previous/Next tab
- Ctrl+Shift+PageUp/Down move terminal tab to the left/right
- Alt+<number> select specific terminal tab by number
Some things I'd like to learn (anyone out there know?):
- How to insert unicode characters in vi
- Invoke a spellchecker from within vi
