Update (bis)

27 April 2008 @ codes

I’ve just made avaiable a new version of my backup monitoring scripts. This scripts will remind you regularly that your data needs to be backed up (default one month after the latest backup) and also help you in doing so (requiring very few intervention on your behalf except maybe two or three clicks at most).

I’ve also updated the Ephyblog plugin to Epiphany so that they work after the API change that happened in version 2.22.

My little pet project MathBench has finally reached a reasonably stable state si that I could do the first release today.

My intention in doing this was to test some ideas about how a (Python) shell could help its users by providing the usual nice features (completion, syntax highlighting etc) but also by making it much easier than usual to access consistent information about what they’re doing.

On the technology side: it’s all written in Python, borrows most of its features to the Py project from wxPython, and is extensible thanks to my other pet project: yapsy.

Oh and thanks to these technologies it is cross-platform and works on Linux, MacOSX and Windows.
