What's the "correct" way to create a custom daemon in Ubuntu, that will start at boot time and be controllable by Ubuntu's standard daemon start/stop commands?
Can I just copy and paste one of the scripts in /etc/init.d or do I need to "register" the daemon somewhere else?

Hello,
I'm trying to execute a shell command from a java application, on the GNU/Linux platform. The problem is that the script, that calls another java application, never ends, although it runs successfully from bash. I tried to debug it:

Hello,
I'm trying to connect via SSH to a remote shell, using Emacs on Windows XP. I'm currently using Putty, but I'd like to switch to Emacs.
I can't find a way which works right. The best I've achieved is running Plink (command line version of Putty) as a subshell, but I'm still getting spurious characters and duplicated prompts like...
We need to support a legacy app that provides a Unix and a Win32 port. Unfortunately, later in the game, a lot of glue code was written in ksh scripts for the unix port only, and the Win32 port has lost parity. I've been trying to revive it, and I've been trying some ksh-for-windows solutions (a native build of Zsh used to work in the ...

Any expert opinions/comments/samples?

So if there was a framework that applied rails like concepts to the commandline in ruby then that would be really fantastic.
I'v allready looked into SimpleCommand and Hirb, nothing quite what I was looking for.

I recently made the insanely long overdue switch from tcsh to bash.
The only thing I miss is tcsh's ESC-p feature:
Start typing a command and then hit ESC-p (I actually found the equivalent ctrl-[p easier to type) and it jumps to the most recent command in your history that starts with what you've typed so far.
Perhaps the best answer i...
