favourite vim command of the day

July 7th, 2011 No comments

I’m a big fan of writing constants in big letters, in every language. This is perfect for re-editing :

:gUw

Puts the current word (“w”) into uppercase (“U”), lowercase would be “u”.

SQL “simulate” a DELETE statement

February 24th, 2011 No comments

Needed to simulate some DELETE’s on one of our production databases. After thinking about backup/restore and such time consuming things I found this :

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE test_tbl SELECT * FROM table_to_test;

This table stays until you drop it or close your mysql-admin session.

Great….

good bye CVS …. hello git !

November 4th, 2010 No comments

Nachdem das CVS Repository von meinem Forum auf play-wii.org nicht mehr komplett auschecken wollte (seltsame Fehler bei Binärdateien) habe ich das zum Anlass genommen um auf git zu wechseln. Was mir an git gefällt ist die relativ einfache Handhabung und das Konzept dahinter. SubVersion war mir dann doch noch zu “CVS lastig”.
