org ❚ A Scripter's Notes

Narrowing the Author column in Magit

Mon Dec 18, 2017 [Sat Aug 11, 2018]

The Org and Worg git repos can be committed to only via ssh protocol (and not https), and for technical reasons, I cannot commit to those repos via ssh from my primary development machine. So I ended up with a flow that involves pushing commits to those repos using my Nexus 6p phone.

Magit is how I git, and I love to primarily work from the ∗magit-log∗ buffer (M-x magit-status, l b). But the default column widths were not optimal on a Nexus 6p 5.7" screen. And that’s what inspired this tweak, which looks great on a regular desktop monitor too.

String Functions: Nim vs Python

Wed Aug 9, 2017

While learning the Nim language and trying to correlate that with my Python 3 knowledge, I came across this awesome comparison table of string manipulation functions between the two languages.

My utmost gratitude goes to the developers of Nim, Python, Org, ob-nim and ob-python, and of course Hugo which allowed me to publish my notes in this presentable format.
