Links and Groff | |
Thursday Jan 31 2:38:24 2013 | |
I just found some shortcuts for making better use of gopher. | |
1st: Floodgap has actually a page with the latest news. | |
Most current Floodgap news feeds | |
And 2nd: They have XKCD! Hurray! | |
xkcd - A Webcomic of Romance, Sarcasm, Math and Language. | |
Yeah, sure. Both weren't actually hidden, but I'll put them on my | |
main gopher directory anyway. It's nice to have a quick access. | |
Regards this other information system... | |
I just began collecting links on my web page here at SDF. | |
There will be gopher links mixed in of course. ;-) | |
And now for something completely different: | |
I'll have to get back to learning groff the next days. I somehow | |
can't make it work. Mom is a great macro package, but all I can | |
compile is the mom sample documents. I'm somehow to stupid. | |
Add EQN terror to this. Can't somehow use EQN no matter if I put | |
it inside MS, ME or Mom documents. Maybe I screwed my | |
installation. Next days I'll have to use SDF to check this. | |
I'd just love to get a bit fluent with groff. It really might | |
become my best friend for taking notes and preparing small | |
documents. Nothing wrong with LaTeX though. It's just BIG. | |
Both the installations and the syntax are, well, big. What I | |
need is something smaller for these little things one has to put | |
down somewhere almost daily. It needs math, simple tables, unix | |
shell connection, some way of inserting or drawing graphics and | |
sketches, decent isolation between document and editor, i.e. no | |
wysiwyg, just plain text, and it shouldn't cause me pains when I | |
have to turn the little notes paper into a LaTeX paper for | |
university. Groff comes to mind again and again and again. | |
Let's see. | |
