Please use this a starting point for you site. But remember, this would not have been possible without hundreds of Jekyll created sites running on GitHub Pages and elsewhere. I scrapped some of the good ones to come up with this design and code template.
Show me some love by forking this repo and making it even more awesome. Also, If you tweet me about what you think of it, that would make my day.
It all started when I was doing research for a talk at Prototype Camp. I understand what is Jekyll and knew how to use it. The message I wanted to convey is that other CMS sites will force you to mostly follow their way to get the full benefit of the CMS. With Jekyll, you don't have to. You can do whatever you want and if it can be converted to HTML, CSS, JS you are good to go. But the two popular options built on Jekyll are Jekyll Bootstrap or Octopress. Octopress is a CMS. It may not need a database, but it stil is a CMS. Jekyll Bootstrap is not a CMS, but it is a Ruby project whio's primary purpose is to get you started with you Jekyll. It's not suitable for a design based site creation.
I didn't really had a template to showcase that met my expectations. So I created one. Its a blnk canvas, created with as little dependencies as possible.
Hope you like it, use it and extend it.

‘Hold and secure’ at Elgin Park Secondary after threat
RCMP currently on scene at South Surrey school
by Nick GreenizanUPDATE: At 12:15 p.m, RCMP re-opened 24 Avenue to traffic, but police remained on scene.
RCMP are on the scene at Elgin Park Secondary in South Surrey investigating an unspecified threat.
Police responded just before 11 a.m., and have traffic blocked in both directions in the 13400-block of 24 Avenue while the investigation continues. About a dozen police cars are on scene, along with a number of police dog teams. An RCMP helicopter was also seen in the air.
“The school received a threat… and when it comes to the safety of our schools, we can’t and won’t take any chances. We treat all threats to schools and other areas as real until we can confirm that they are not,” Cpl. Elenore Sturko told Peace Arch News.
The school is currently in ‘hold and secure’ protocol, Sturko added.
RCMP school resource officers have also been sent to two nearby elementary schools as a precautionary measure, said Const. Richard Wright.
During a hold-and-secure, students and staff are kept inside, but continue on with normal operations.
While the investigation continues, parents and others are asked not to attend the school, Surrey RCMP tweeted shortly before noon.
“We’re working to determine if the threat is real,” Sturko said.

I'm a software engineer with a particular interest in language-oriented software development. The vision for software engineering that I share with many other researchers is to one day reach a point where it becomes so easy to develop small, focused Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs), that the average programmer will regard this as the normal thing to do; given a problem to solve, develop a suitable language in which you can model precisely what you want in your problem domain, then develop a model transformation to map this solution idea to a chosen solution domain.
The research field of model-driven engineering is all about realising this vision, and I've specialised and focused on model transformations in general, and (model) consistency management in particular. Consistency management encompasses a means of specifying consistency over models, and being able to: generate consistent models, check if a set of given models are consistent, and restore consistency for a given set of possibly inconsistent models. The community currently working on all aspects of consistency management refers to the area as bidirectional transformations (bx). The reason I'm particularly interested in bx is that I can only really advocate the proliferation of numerous DSLs (and thus models in these DSLs), if we can guarantee that consistency can be restored and maintained as required in an efficient and effective manner. My favourite hammer for working on bx has been and is still graph transformations (which is also just basic category theory). A particularly simple flavour of graph transformations can be expressed using Triple Graph Grammars (TGGs), and I've spent a good time of my life as an active researcher thinking about and extending the TGG formalism.
I strive hard to be a balanced researcher, and I have made contributions towards developing the formal theory of TGGs ( , , , ), as well as embodying this theory in practical tools you can trust and actually (want to) use ( , ). I also try to be as methodic as possible, and have contributed to systematically comparing the diverse approaches to bx ( , , , ), as well as developing techniques towards the reproducible engineering of quality bx solutions ( , , ). Please refer to my Google Scholar profile for a complete and up to date list of publications.
I enjoy teaching and take great joy in preparing engaging slides and great learning material. Here is a brief overview of courses that I have prepared and held in the past. Please contact me directly if you would like to have access to material that I have not yet (or cannot) make freely available online.


Preamble
This is a more advanced version of the tutorial EAGLE Use Case - Simulating a uniform reads distribution in our PhiX simulation.
We are first extracting a segment of a chromosome (a few million bases long).
We then want to generate reads over this region by using a Gamma distribution.
Initialisation
If you haven't done it yet, you may refer to the EAGLE - Installation and configuration instructions.
For the moment only the snapshot version will work:
EAGLE_PATH=/illumina/development/EAGLE/EAGLE-snapshot-20120308 PATH=$EAGLE_PATH/bin:$PATH EAGLE_SHARE=$EAGLE_PATH/share/EAGLE-1.0.0 EAGLE_LIBEXEC=$EAGLE_PATH/libexec/EAGLE-1.0.0
Segment extraction
In this example, we extract chrX:31137343-33357725
(2,220,383 bases).
There are several ways (creating a VCF file with a deletion before and another deletion after the segment, or using the fastaDump tool and post-process its output, etc.) but the easiest way is to use a default ploidy level of 0 and a copy number of 1 for the segment you are interested in:
$EAGLE_PATH/bin/applyVariants \ --reference-genome=/illumina/scratch/iGenomes/Homo_sapiens/UCSC/hg19/Sequence/Chromosomes/chrX.fa \ --variant-list=$EAGLE_SHARE/Variants/None.vcf \ --sample-genome=./my_sample
This brings chrX from the Human reference into ./my_sample
. Then create the following tab-separated file:
#CHR FIRST_POS LAST_POS GROUP_NUMBER chrX 31137343 33357725 2
The group number has to be an integer > 1. Then run:
$EAGLE_LIBEXEC/applyCopyNumber.pl --sample-genome=./my_sample --copy-number=segments.tab
This generates an additional ./my_sample/CNV_2.fa
(and its *.fai counterpart) that contains the portions of DNA that we are interested in.
If you are interested in multiple segments, just list them all in segments.tab (using a different group number so that they end up in different files). If these multiple segments come from various chromosomes, you need to add these to the --reference-genome
parameter in applyVariants
, and remember to set the default ploidy to '0' for these too (see the next section).
Reads generation
First we generate our EAGLE workspace.
Let's say we want: Average coverage of 100x + single reads:
configureEAGLE.pl \ --run-info=$EAGLE_SHARE/RunInfo/RunInfo_SingleRead1x1Tiles.xml \ --reference-genome=./my_sample \ --variant-list=$EAGLE_SHARE/Variants/None.vcf \ --quality-table=$EAGLE_SHARE/QualityTables/DefaultQualityTable.qval \ --coverage-depth=100 \ --genome-mutator-options="--ploidy-chromosome=chrX --ploidy-level=0" \ --fragments-allocator-options="--tls=101:101:101:10:10:FRp:RFm"
Note: The --tls option sets all fragments to be 101 bases long. You should remove this option if generating paired reads.
We then want to generate our default fragments files:
cd EAGLE make fragments ls -l fragments.pos
You should see that fragments.pos is 4396798 bytes long.
Each values is encoded on 2 bytes, which means that we have generated 2198399 reads (note that this corresponds to 100x of our 2220383 bases with reads of length 101 bases (2220383*100/101=2198399).
Now the R bit: generating a list of position intervals based on a Gamma based distribution:
R x<-rgamma(2198399, shape=.01, rate=1) y<-round(x/sum(x)*2000000) f <- file("fragments.pos", "wb") writeBin(as.integer(y),f, size=2) close(f) quit("no")
Now to simulate the sequencing:
make
or
make bam
This should take about 1min30s to complete.
Results
From top to bottom, we used Gamma shape parameters smaller and smaller.


Ruby Classes
Defining a group of objects with shared properties
March 29, 2015
This week, I'm going to explore what Ruby Classes are and why they are useful. Ruby is a object-oriented language, and it is all structured in classes. A Class defines a type of object, and it contains all characteristics that all instances of this object will have. An Integer, for example, is a Ruby Class. This means that all objects assigned as Integers share the same characteristics and can make use of the same methods.
I'll try to make it more comprehensible by giving a silly example. Imagine that you want to create a Class T-Shirt. When you define this class, you define that all objects of T-Shirt class have:
- Collar
- Sleeves
- Body
Once you've defined it, for every new T-Shirt you want to create (that is, for every instance of that class), they will always automatically have these 3 characteristics that you defined for this class. You can also create a method #color for this class, that recieves a color as input and defines the color of your T-Shirt as output.
Why is this useful? Well, since you know what it takes to create a T-Shirt, you don't need to start it fro scratch every time you want to make a new T-Shirt. You just create a class, define all methods and parameters for it, and then you're done! After that, all you have to do is instantiate your class to create a new object. No effort!


Treadmill
This pipline is developed to detect laser pulses received at the optic fibers on the animal’s head when moving on a treadmill (as shown below).
It works in two separate ways:
Either you provide Spike2 analog signals (with extensions
.smr
or.smrx
) of the session (understandably with an unknown offset with respect to the video recording).This file should include the same trial tag with a letter following a 2-digit number e.g.
a01
,f25
, etc. Which is used to identify the video file in the Video folder to its corresponding analog signal file under Laser folder. Needless to say that providing the analog pulse will always result in a much more accurate reading of the pulses.If you don’t provide the analog signals, the laser pulses are detected solely based on the video recording.
Note
You need to provide the information about the stimulation (pulse) duration in the config file.
Here’s an example of the beta pulse protocol:

Ever wanted to create a "direct manipulation" program where you select various tools and manipulate stuff on a workspace? These sorts of applications are quite difficult to build due to the many possible combinations of behavior that is needed. Every tool must know what to do with each type of object. How do we manage this sort of complexity?
Well the GOF (gang of four) author John Vlissides documented this pattern in this paper
http://www.research.ibm.com/designpatterns/pubs/ph-sep99.pdf
Tooled Composite Pattern
Here is a presentation I gave at the Melbourne Patterns Group about using this pattern in the implementation of the software Rationale where I was Chief Software Architect. It ended up being a success, though we did learn a few things along the way (see below).
Whilst implementing this pattern basically saved our bacon, in terms of getting the job done, having the pattern rely on visitor so much did add a layer of complexity that was tiresome to maintain.
Here are some some things we learnt after living with this pattern for a few years:
| Classic approach | Possibly a more Practical approach |
| visitor design pattern | use RTTI (or equivalent e.g. have each shape return a shapeType enum) for better comprehensibility. |
| 3D table of possibilities, with events, shapes, tools on each axis. | table too sparse and complex, so just code for the cases you want. |
| some blend of visitShape() / visitEdge() etc methods and mouse event methods, within each tool | skip most of the visit methods and do the logic in the mouse handling methods. Generalise the mouse handling into one event (mouseAction) and use if statements to catch the situations of interest. You know what the current shape is by having a pointer to it (set up for you by the tool or something). |
| use tooled composite for all interactivity | have pockets of interactivity where a component takes over and looks after the gui instead of doing everything the tooled composite way (more explanation below) |
With regards to the last point, what we were doing was considering the idea of creating self contained components that had their own little world inside themselves, that was totally independent of the tool/visit system. This way we didn't have to use this architectural pattern for absolutely everything, since that was getting really intricate and tedious.
We considered for example building a box (shape with text in it with various sub editable parts like titles and radio buttons) editor using the regular .NET component system and use their well understood way of handling events, and editing etc. - rather than coding visitors and miniscule tool interactions. So the idea was that as we went into say, "edit mode", we would switch away from the tooled composite pattern and into the world of .NET - just during the edit.
Make no mistake, we desperately needed the Tooled Composite Pattern approach to hold everything together, and to be the default system in play. The .NET component approach (described above) definitely wasn't suited to a deep and complex drawing tool like Rationale, with zooming, mini maps, panning, layout algorithms etc. In fact we found in experiments / spikes of a fully .NET component approach that .NET events would fire all over the place causing too much screen refreshing.
So in the end a we used Tooled Composite for mostly everything, and dropped into .NET components only when needed eg. the text editor that you get when you double click on a workspace box in order to edit the text inside it was a pure .NET text control. We never got to push this hybrid approach any further - we wanted to write a super fancy text editor component (with hover zones, places for specifying urls and bold headings etc.) ourselves purely in .NET - we just didn't have the time - thus we mostly stayed completely within the classic Tooled Composite Pattern. And I'm not sure what we would have done without it!

title=Programmer Pet Peeves #242942: Sheraton date=2013-01-14 type=post tags=blog status=published ~~~~~~
Sheraton's website's got some issues that drive me, a programmer, nuts.
I tried to look at my past stays so that I could, in theory, get a reference number and then ask for a folio for my expense reports. I logged into the website and was presented with a java.util.NoSuchElementException
, which - for you non-programmers geeks - says that they tried to walk through data and there was none there and they didn't handle that possibility. (Anyone who knows me knows that I've stayed at more than a few Sheratons...)
Then, I figured I'd work around this by talking to someone on the chat, and was greeted with the message 'Invalid ichannel: null,' which also indicates that they attempted to do something behind the scenes on the assumption that something was there that wasn't.
Sometimes I wonder if people test things before they release it :/
At least the meatware operator I spoke to was lovely / helpful...


PingCAP started in 2015 when three seasoned infrastructure engineers were sick and tired of the way databases were managed, scaled, and maintained while working at leading Internet companies.
Seeing no good solution on the market, they decided to build one themselves--the open-source way.
With the help of a first-class team and hundreds of contributors from around the globe, PingCAP is building an open source distributed NewSQL hybrid transactional and analytical processing (HTAP) database.
Its flagship project, TiDB, is a cloud-native distributed SQL layer with MySQL compatibility, and one of the most popular open source database projects in the world (don’t take our word for it, check it out:
https://github.com/pingcap/tidb).
TiDB’s sister project, TiKV, is a cloud-native distributed Key-Value store and also growing rapidly (

2019 LA Auto Show: BMW M8 Gran Coupe — A Stunner in Person
The BMW M235i Gran Coupe is the fifth major debut for BMW at the 2019 Los Angeles Auto Show. We’ve already covered the BMW M2 …
by Nico DeMattiaI must admit, this isn’t the first time I’m seeing the BMW M8 Gran Coupe in person. I first saw it at M Fest in Canada, where BMW held a closed-door viewing of it, where no cameras or phones were allowed. However, it’s as shockingly awesome now, making its North American debut at the 2019 LA Auto Show, as it was then.
The BMW M8 Gran Coupe is the brand’s best looking car and there’s no convincing me otherwise. For starters, it’s based on the already stunning 8 Series Gran Coupe. But it’s been given M treatments, with lots of extra aggression, and it looks positively fantastic. It’s something we should deeply appreciate, too, because BMW isn’t making at on of gorgeous cars at the moment. But credit where credit’s due, the M8 Gran Coupe is jaw-dropping.
Powering the BMW M8 Gran Coupe is the brand’s 4.4 liter twin-turbocharged V8, which is the same one that powers the M5. In standard guise, it makes 600 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque. However, in Competition guise, it makes 617 hp and the same torque. We’ve driven the M8 Coupe but not this new Gran Coupe and if the latter is anything like the former, it’s going to be a monster of a machine. In fact, I think it’s going to make even more sense than the Coupe, just as I feel that the M850i Gran Coupe makes more sense than the two-door M850i Coupe.
The BMW M8 Gran Coupe might be overlooked here at the LA Auto Show, thanks to the hubbub surrounding the M2 CS and all of the wild electric cars debuting here, but it shouldn’t. It’s a stunning and incredibly powerful car that we can’t wait to drive.
We’re live in LA so stay tuned for more car debuts and live photos, not just of BMWs, either.

According to the original design, templates must be used to replace concrete values in the first few or all of the optional arguments of a constructor or polymorphic type. For example, if Tuple int 10
is used frequently, you can declare a template for it, which will cause the appropriate constructors to be generated automatically. When using such a constructor there may be nowhere to pass an int
type or the tuple size 10
. Similarly, it was originally planned to declared templates for Vector int
, Vector string
, etc. in order to generate constructors for each vector type being used type. These constructors would make it possible during deserialization to determine what kind of array is being transmitted.
Templates are not used now. Instead, the same universal constructors (for example, vector {t:Type} [t] = Vector t
) are used with the values of the optional parameters being inferred from the type of the result (if we already know from the schema that in this location there must be a Vector int
during deserialization, we understand that we will see the universal vector
constructor in which t is equal to int
).
This approach is better in that it is not necessary to define Vector SomeType
templates in advance for all possible types in order to generate their own constructors for each of these cases. Nevertheless, there is a drawback. If someone wants to transmit the serialization of a value of the clothed type Vector int
as a serialization of a value of type Object
, a problem arises during serialization: after seeing the universal vector
constructor and then reading the vector length, we cannot determine what type of values should be expected next.
In theory, this problem can be solved by using the full form of the constructor (@vector
) corresponding to vector
(it is automatically defined and is different in that all of the optional parameters become required), or by defining
object X:Type X = TypedObject
and passing the object type explicitly. Type serialization is required in both cases.

The user interface resources are translated or updated in a Microsoft Excel file generated with the Export function on the Manage languages page.
The exported Microsoft Excel file contains three worksheets:
- User interface: All texts, labels, and messages that appear on the user interface of the platform's administration portal and the marketplaces.
- Email: The subject and body texts of all email messages which are generated automatically by the platform.
- Platform objects: The names of service parameters and events, report titles and names of payment types provided by the platform. The parameter and event names are visible to suppliers when defining a marketable service as well as to users subscribing to a service.
Each worksheet contains five columns:
- Key used by the platform to identify the label or string. The keys must not be changed.
- de system, en system, ja system: The system default names and labels provided with the language bundles after installation (German, English, Japanese). The system default strings are for your reference when providing translations.
- Add your language code here or <Language Code>: In this column, the strings of the new language to be supported are to be entered.
Add your language code here is shown if you did not select a language on the Manage languages page before exporting the data. In this case, you usually want to provide a new language. The column is empty.
If you selected a language on the Manage languages page, the column is headed by the code of this language. In this case, you usually update existing translations of the selected language. You can also select the system default languages (de, en, or jp) if you want to customize the system default strings.
The strings can be also be changed by marketplace managers using the Marketplace --> Customize texts menu function. Their changes apply to the marketplaces owned by the organization of the marketplace managers.
Proceed as follows to translate the file:
- On the three worksheets, enter the ISO language code of the language you want to provide in the header of the fifth column.
- For each key, enter your translation in the fifth column.
If a translation is missing, the English label or string is used. If the English label or string is not defined either, the language-independent technical key is displayed.
Be aware of the following:
- You can use HTML markups in the texts for all keys which represent a descriptive text (keys ending with .description). For example, you can use <b> for bold text, <br> for line breaks, and so on.
- You can use the complete Unicode character set.
- You can remove the text from the table cells which you do not want to change. This may be useful for managing and tracking your changes to the user interface.
- You must make sure that HTML fields contain valid data and do not break the page layout. For example, text which is too long will be broken into multiple lines on the user interface. Use a separate test environment for testing your translations.
- Save the Microsoft Excel file in .xls format.
- Import the file on the Manage languages page.
By importing the file, existing labels and strings in the language with the code entered in the fifth column are overwritten. The language can be used instantly after its activation. Users who have set the language in their profile will instantly see your customizations.
Note: Make sure that all cells on all worksheets of the Excel file are formatted as text.

THE GLASS HOUSE
Reviewed by Harvey Karten Columbia Pictures Director: Daniel Sackheim Writer: Wesley Strick Cast: Diane Lane, Leelee Sobieski, Stellan Skarsgard, Bruce Dern, Trevor Morgan, Kathy Baker Screened at: Loews Lincoln Sq NYC 9/15/01
"The Glass House" may be a by-the-numbers thriller with the audience way ahead of the characters, but since Stellan Skarsgard is the scariest actor of his generation, the film is well worth viewing. Skarsgard turns a hackneyed plot into a nailbiter, at least until toward the end he is transformed from a guy who can evoke terror in his would-be victims simply by acting normal to someone who becomes a generic maniac and therefore almost laughable. If Daniel Sackheim ("Law and Order," "The X Files") directed the entire movie with a Hitchcockian cool instead of turning it into a teen horror pic in the closing half hour, "The Glass House" would be quite a respectable thriller, one to admire for pace, acting and appropriate restraint.
In fact we in the audience might be willing to overlook some plot flaws that render the film less credible than it could be. For example after the Ruby Baker (Leelee Sobieski) and her kid brother Rhett (Trevor Morgan) suffer the tragic loss of their parents, who crashed the family car after attending a function, the kids are sent per trust agreement to the luscious Malibu digs of the Bakers' well-to-do friends Erin Glass (Diane Lane) and her husband Terry (Stellan Skarsgard). The first thing the adults do is to assign the two to the same room, although there's enough space in the glass house (or the Glass House if you prefer) to fit half the population of the soon-to-be homeless Afghanis. This is particularly inappropriate since Ruby is a 16-year-old high-school student and a sensitive soul at that, one who has trouble mixing in with her more flippant peers in her new Malibu school. Why wouldn't Ruby, who acts mature beyond her years and in fact looks every bit a real woman when dressed up in black, question her guardians about this, particularly when, later on, the adults do in fact decide to move her into separate quarters?
"The Glass House" is a fairly conventional story about a pair of adolescents who are compelled to live with virtual strangers after the death of their parents, guardians who become suspect soon enough not only for the strange room accommodations but because Terry, under the guise of taking his new charge to a party, escorts her to a plush restaurant instead and hits on her as soon as they retreat to the car. If Terry had his eyes on the gold mine that this girl represents, would they shift toward the attributes of the kid's flesh so conspicuously thereby eroding the young woman's trust? As Ruby, by coincidence, watches an intense fight between Erin and Terry and, by coincidence once again, happens to listen to Terry's incriminating dialogue both on the house phone and in his office, she is certain that she and her brother are living on borrowed time and take the needed action to extricate themselves from their dilemma.
Without Skarsgard, who has excelled in such work as the remarkable "Breaking the Waves," almost putting Ray Milland to shame by his role as a drunk in "Aberdeen," this movie would be forgettable. With him--and with the help of the capable Bruce Dern as the Baker family financial adviser--the film becomes not a must-see but a worthwhile entry to the year's commercial thrillers.

Fossil Launches Hybrid Smartwatch With Over 2-Week Battery Life
Fossil has just announced a new hybrid smartwatch called the Hybrid HR, and it comes with a battery life that can last beyond two weeks.
That's much more than the battery life of a traditional smartwatch. Certainly much more than what you will get with Fossil's non-hybrid smartwatches.
For those needing or wanting a smartwatch that lasts longer between charges, you now have a new option. Fossil is launching this new watch today and it's already available through the Fossil website.
Advertisement
The battery life is not really the only focus though. The addition of the heart rate tracker which is new to Fossil's Hybrid line of Smartwatches is another big feature.
The Fossil Hybrid HR smartwatch starts at $195
As smartwatches go the Hybrid HR isn't too expensive. That also boils down to the lack of the more complex operating system, lack of apps, and unnecessary hardware.
More specifically unnecessary for a hybrid watch of this nature. Not unnecessary for complete smartwatches. Because this isn't a fully-fledged smartwatch it doesn't just have great battery life. It also starts at $195 and that should make it enticing to anyone looking to save a little money.
Advertisement
Many smartwatches will retail for upwards of $300, so $195 is surely nothing to shake a stick at. There are fully-fledged smartwatches with comparable price points. But, then you're still left with a watch that will need to be charged at least every two to three days.
The Hybrid HR comes in at an affordable price, has at least a 2-week battery life, and has someuseful smart features.
Naturally, there are multiple colorways
Fossil has been making watches for years, along with tons of other apparel. Most of the company's products come in numerous colors. The same goes for the Hybrid HR as it comes in five different colorways.
Advertisement
One thing to note is that some of these different colors change the cost of the watch. Not by much though. The most expensive model is $215. The watch also comes in two different styles – the Charter and Collider.
Both have a 27mm active display area, are 11mm thick, and have a 42mm case size. Both do have distinct designs though. For one the Charter case comes in a sort of Rose Gold color and it has slimmer bands. While the Collider looks to be available in both Black and Gunemetal.
As for features, the Hybrid HR has things like custom goal tracking, message and call notifications, workout modes, music control, weather and more. It's even water resistant at 3ATM, so you can wear it in the rain and not worry about damage.

Tries as well as possible to maximize the figure.
Warning
This function is still experimental, but “it works on my machine” so I keep it.

Vim documentation: os_amiga
main help file*os_amiga.txt* For Vim version 7.2. Last change: 2005 Mar 29 VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Bram Moolenaar *Amiga* This file contains the particularities for the Amiga version of Vim. There is also a section specifically for |MorphOS| below. Installation on the Amiga: - Assign "VIM:" to the directory where the Vim "doc" directory is. Vim will look for the file "VIM:doc/help.txt" (for the help command). Setting the environment variable $VIM also works. And the other way around: when $VIM used and it is not defined, "VIM:" is used. - With DOS 1.3 or earlier: Put "arp.library" in "libs:". Vim must have been compiled with the |+ARP| feature enabled. Make sure that newcli and run are in "C:" (for executing external commands). - Put a shell that accepts a command with "-c" (e.g. "Csh" from Fish disk 624) in "c:" or in any other directory that is in your search path (for executing external commands). If you have sufficient memory you can avoid startup delays by making Vim and csh resident with the command "rez csh vim". You will have to put "rezlib.library" in your "libs:" directory. Under 2.0 you will need rez version 0.5. If you do not use digraphs, you can save some memory by recompiling without the |+digraphs| feature. If you want to use Vim with other terminals you can recompile with the TERMCAP option. Vim compiles with Manx 5.x and SAS 6.x. See the makefiles and feature.h. If you notice Vim crashes on some files when syntax highlighting is on, or when using a search pattern with nested wildcards, it might be that the stack is too small. Try increasing the stack size. In a shell use the Stack command before launching Vim. On the Workbench, select the Vim icon, use the workbench "Info" menu and change the Stack field in the form. If you want to use different colors set the termcap codes: t_mr (for inverted text) t_md (for bold text) t_me (for normal text after t_mr and t_md) t_so (for standout mode) t_se (for normal text after t_so) t_us (for underlined text) t_ue (for normal text after t_us) t_ZH (for italic text) t_ZR (for normal text after t_ZH) Standard ANSI escape sequences are used.  The cell and background color should be the same. The codes can be combined by separating them with a semicolon. For example to get white text on a blue background: :set t_me=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m :set t_se=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m :set t_ue=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m :set t_ZR=^V<Esc>[0;32;43;>3m :set t_md=^V<Esc>[1;32;43;>3m :set t_mr=^V<Esc>[7;32;43;>3m :set t_so=^V<Esc>[0;31;43;>3m :set t_us=^V<Esc>[4;32;43;>3m :set t_ZH=^V<Esc>[3;32;43;>3m When using multiple commands with a filter command, e.g. :r! echo this; echo that Only the output of the last command is used. To fix this you have to group the commands. This depends on the shell you use (that is why it is not done automatically in Vim). Examples: :r! (echo this; echo that) :r! {echo this; echo that} Commands that accept a single file name allow for embedded spaces in the file name. However, when using commands that accept several file names, embedded spaces need to be escaped with a backslash. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vim for MorphOS *MorphOS* [this section mostly by Ali Akcaagac] For the latest info about the MorphOS version: http://www.akcaagac.com/index_vim.html Problems There are a couple of problems which are not MorphOS related but more Vim and UN*X related. When starting up Vim in ram: it complains with a nag requester from MorphOS please simply ignore it. Another problem is when running Vim as is some plugins will cause a few problems which you can ignore as well. Hopefully someone will be fixing it over the time. To pass all these problems for now you can either run: vim <file to be edited> or if you want to run Vim plain and enjoy the motion of Helpfiles etc. it then would be better to enter: vim --noplugins <of course you can add a file> Installation 1) Please copy the binary 'VIM' file to c: 2) Get the Vim runtime package from: ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/amiga/vim62rt.tgz and unpack it in your 'Apps' directory of the MorphOS installation. For me this would create following directory hierarchy: MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62/... 3) Add the following lines to your s:shell-startup (Important!). ;Begin VIM Set VIM=MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62 Assign HOME: "" ;End VIM 4) Copy the '.vimrc' file to s: 5) There is also a file named 'color-sequence' included in this archive. This will set the MorphOS Shell to show ANSI colors. Please copy the file to s: and change the s:shell-startup to: ;Begin VIM Set VIM=MorphOS:Apps/Vim/Vim62 Assign HOME: "" Execute S:Color-Sequence Cls ;End VIM top - main help file

Scene I
A cavern. In the middle, a boiling cauldron.
First Witch
[Thunder. Enter the three Witches]
Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd.
Second Witch
Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined.
Third Witch
Harpier cries 'Tis time, 'tis time.
First Witch
Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot.
ALL
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.
Second Witch
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and owlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Third Witch
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches' mummy, maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark,
Root of hemlock digg'd i' the dark,
Liver of blaspheming Jew,
Gall of goat, and slips of yew
Silver'd in the moon's eclipse,
Nose of Turk and Tartar's lips,
Finger of birth-strangled babe
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For the ingredients of our cauldron.
ALL
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Second Witch
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
[Enter HECATE to the other three Witches]
HECATE
O well done! I commend your pains;
And every one shall share i' the gains;
And now about the cauldron sing,
Live elves and fairies in a ring,
Enchanting all that you put in.
[Music and a song: 'Black spirits,' &c]
[HECATE retires]
Second Witch
By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes.
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks!

What is't you do?

Third Witch
We'll answer.
First Witch
Say, if thou'dst rather hear it from our mouths,
Or from our masters?
MACBETH
Call 'em; let me see 'em.
First Witch
Pour in sow's blood, that hath eaten
Her nine farrow; grease that's sweaten
From the murderer's gibbet throw
Into the flame.
ALL
Come, high or low;
Thyself and office deftly show!
[Thunder. First Apparition: an armed Head]
MACBETH
Tell me, thou unknown power,--
First Witch
He knows thy thought:
Hear his speech, but say thou nought.
First Apparition
Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth! beware Macduff;
Beware the thane of Fife. Dismiss me. Enough.
[Descends]
MACBETH
Whate'er thou art, for thy good caution, thanks;
Thou hast harp'd my fear aright: but one
word more,--
First Witch
He will not be commanded: here's another,
More potent than the first.
[Thunder.  Macbeth! Macbeth!
MACBETH
Had I three ears, I'ld hear thee.
Second Apparition
Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn
The power of man, for none of woman born
Shall harm Macbeth.
[Descends]
MACBETH
Then live, Macduff: what need I fear of thee?
But yet I'll make assurance double sure,
And take a bond of fate: thou shalt not live;
That I may tell pale-hearted fear it lies,
And sleep in spite of thunder.
Thunder. Third Apparition: a Child crowned,
with a tree in his hand
What is this
That rises like the issue of a king,
And wears upon his baby-brow the round
And top of sovereignty?
ALL
Listen, but speak not to't.
Third Apparition
Be lion-mettled, proud; and take no care
Who chafes, who frets, or where conspirers are:
Macbeth shall never vanquish'd be until
Great Birnam wood to high Dunsinane hill
Shall come against him.
[Descends]
MACBETH
That will never be
Who can impress the forest, bid the tree
Unfix his earth-bound root? Sweet bodements! good!
Rebellion's head, rise never till the wood
Of Birnam rise, and our high-placed Macbeth
Shall live the lease of nature, pay his breath
To time and mortal custom. Yet my heart
Throbs to know one thing: tell me, if your art
Can tell so much: shall Banquo's issue ever
Reign in this kingdom?
ALL
Seek to know no more.
 Let me know.
Why sinks that cauldron? and what noise is this?

A show of Eight Kings, the last with a glass in
his hand; GHOST OF BANQUO following
MACBETH
Thou art too like the spirit of Banquo: down!
Thy crown does sear mine eye-balls. And thy hair,
Thou other gold-bound brow, is like the first.
A third is like the former. Filthy hags!
Why do you show me this? A fourth! Start, eyes!
What, will the line stretch out to the crack of doom?
Another yet! A seventh! I'll see no more:
And yet the eighth appears, who bears a glass
Which shows me many more; and some I see
That two-fold balls and treble scepters carry:
Horrible sight! Now, I see, 'tis true;
For the blood-bolter'd Banquo smiles upon me,
And points at them for his.
[Apparitions vanish]
What, is this so?
First Witch
Ay, sir, all this is so: but why
Stands Macbeth thus amazedly?
Come, sisters, cheer we up his sprites,
And show the best of our delights:
I'll charm the air to give a sound,
While you perform your antic round:
That this great king may kindly say,
Our duties did his welcome pay.
Music. The witches dance and then vanish,
with HECATE
MACBETH
Where are they? Gone? Let this pernicious hour
Stand aye accursed in the calendar!
Come in, without there!
[Enter LENNOX]
LENNOX
What's your grace's will?
MACBETH
Saw you the weird sisters?
MACBETH
Came they not by you?
LENNOX
No, indeed, my lord.
MACBETH
Infected be the air whereon they ride;
And damn'd all those that trust them! I did hear
The galloping of horse: who was't came by?
LENNOX
'Tis two or three, my lord, that bring you word
Macduff is fled to England.
MACBETH
Time, thou anticipatest my dread exploits:
The flighty purpose never is o'ertook
Unless the deed go with it; from this moment
The very firstlings of my heart shall be
The firstlings of my hand. And even now,
To crown my thoughts with acts, be it thought and done:
The castle of Macduff I will surprise;
Seize upon Fife; give to the edge o' the sword
His wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls
That trace him in his line. No boasting like a fool;
This deed I'll do before this purpose cool.
But no more sights!--Where are these gentlemen?
Come, bring me where they are.
[Exeunt]
Scene II
Fife. Macduff's castle.
LADY MACDUFF
[Enter LADY MACDUFF, her Son, and ROSS]
What had he done, to make him fly the land?
ROSS
You must have patience, madam.
LADY MACDUFF
He had none:
His flight was madness: when our actions do not,
Our fears do make us traitors.
ROSS
You know not
Whether it was his wisdom or his fear.
LADY MACDUFF
Wisdom! to leave his wife, to leave his babes,
His mansion and his titles in a place
From whence himself does fly? He loves us not;
He wants the natural touch: for the poor wren,
The most diminutive of birds, will fight,
Her young ones in her nest, against the owl.
All is the fear and nothing is the love;
As little is the wisdom, where the flight
So runs against all reason.
ROSS
My dearest coz,
I pray you, school yourself: but for your husband,
He is noble, wise, judicious, and best knows
The fits o' the season. I dare not speak
much further;
But cruel are the times, when we are traitors
And do not know ourselves, when we hold rumour
From what we fear, yet know not what we fear,
But float upon a wild and violent sea
Each way and move. I take my leave of you:
Shall not be long but I'll be here again:
Things at the worst will cease, or else climb upward
To what they were before. My pretty cousin,
Blessing upon you!
LADY MACDUFF
Father'd he is, and yet he's fatherless.
ROSS
I am so much a fool, should I stay longer,
It would be my disgrace and your discomfort:
I take my leave at once.
[Exit]
LADY MACDUFF
Sirrah, your father's dead;
And what will you do now? How will you live?
LADY MACDUFF
What, with worms and flies?
Son
With what I get, I mean; and so do they.
LADY MACDUFF
Poor bird! thou'ldst never fear the net nor lime,
The pitfall nor the gin.
Son
Why should I, mother? Poor birds they are not set for.
My father is not dead, for all your saying.
LADY MACDUFF
Yes, he is dead; how wilt thou do for a father?
Son
Nay, how will you do for a husband?
LADY MACDUFF
Why, I can buy me twenty at any market.
Son
Then you'll buy 'em to sell again.
LADY MACDUFF
Thou speak'st with all thy wit: and yet, i' faith,
With wit enough for thee.
Son
Was my father a traitor, mother?
LADY MACDUFF
Ay, that he was.
LADY MACDUFF
Why, one that swears and lies.
Son
And be all traitors that do so?
LADY MACDUFF
Every one that does so is a traitor, and must be hanged.
Son
And must they all be hanged that swear and lie?
LADY MACDUFF
Why, the honest men.
Son
Then the liars and swearers are fools,
for there are liars and swearers enow to beat
the honest men and hang up them.
LADY MACDUFF
Now, God help thee, poor monkey!
But how wilt thou do for a father?
Son
If he were dead, you'ld weep for
him: if you would not, it were a good sign
that I should quickly have a new father.
LADY MACDUFF
Poor prattler, how thou talk'st!
[Enter a Messenger]
Messenger
Bless you, fair dame! I am not to you known,
Though in your state of honour I am perfect.
I doubt some danger does approach you nearly:
If you will take a homely man's advice,
Be not found here; hence, with your little ones.
To fright you thus, methinks, I am too savage;
To do worse to you were fell cruelty,
Which is too nigh your person. Heaven preserve you!
I dare abide no longer.
[Exit]
LADY MACDUFF
Whither should I fly?
I have done no harm. But I remember now
I am in this earthly world; where to do harm
Is often laudable, to do good sometime
Accounted dangerous folly: why then, alas,
Do I put up that womanly defence,
To say I have done no harm?
[Enter Murderers]
What are these faces?
First Murderer
Where is your husband?
LADY MACDUFF
I hope, in no place so unsanctified
Where such as thou mayst find him.
First Murderer
He's a traitor.
Son
Thou liest, thou shag-hair'd villain!
First Murderer
What, you egg!
[Stabbing him]
Young fry of treachery!
Son
He has kill'd me, mother:
Run away, I pray you!
[Dies]
Exit LADY MACDUFF, crying 'Murder!' Exeunt
Murderers, following her
Scene III
England. Before the King's palace.
MALCOLM
[Enter MALCOLM and MACDUFF]
Let us seek out some desolate shade, and there
Weep our sad bosoms empty.
MACDUFF
Let us rather
Hold fast the mortal sword, and like good men
Bestride our down-fall'n birthdom: each new morn
New widows howl, new orphans cry, new sorrows
Strike heaven on the face, that it resounds
As if it felt with Scotland and yell'd out
Like syllable of dolour.
MALCOLM
What I believe I'll wail,
What know believe, and what I can redress,
As I shall find the time to friend, I will.
What you have spoke, it may be so perchance.
This tyrant, whose sole name blisters our tongues,
Was once thought honest: you have loved him well.
He hath not touch'd you yet. I am young;
but something
You may deserve of him through me, and wisdom
To offer up a weak poor innocent lamb
To appease an angry god.
MACDUFF
I am not treacherous.
MALCOLM
But Macbeth is.
A good and virtuous nature may recoil
In an imperial charge. But I shall crave
your pardon;
That which you are my thoughts cannot transpose:
Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell;
Though all things foul would wear the brows of grace,
Yet grace must still look so.
MACDUFF
I have lost my hopes.
MALCOLM
Perchance even there where I did find my doubts.
Why in that rawness left you wife and child,
Those precious motives, those strong knots of love,
Without leave-taking? I pray you,
Let not my jealousies be your dishonours,
But mine own safeties. You may be rightly just,
Whatever I shall think.
MACDUFF
Bleed, bleed, poor country!
Great tyranny! lay thou thy basis sure,
For goodness dare not cheque thee: wear thou
thy wrongs;
The title is affeer'd! Fare thee well, lord:
I would not be the villain that thou think'st
For the whole space that's in the tyrant's grasp,
And the rich East to boot.
MALCOLM
Be not offended:
I speak not as in absolute fear of you.
I think our country sinks beneath the yoke;
It weeps, it bleeds; and each new day a gash
Is added to her wounds: I think withal
There would be hands uplifted in my right;
And here from gracious England have I offer
Of goodly thousands: but, for all this,
When I shall tread upon the tyrant's head,
Or wear it on my sword, yet my poor country
Shall have more vices than it had before,
More suffer and more sundry ways than ever,
By him that shall succeed.
MACDUFF
What should he be?
MALCOLM
It is myself I mean: in whom I know
All the particulars of vice so grafted
That, when they shall be open'd, black Macbeth
Will seem as pure as snow, and the poor state
Esteem him as a lamb, being compared
With my confineless harms.

MALCOLM
I grant him bloody,
Luxurious, avaricious, false, deceitful,
Sudden, malicious, smacking of every sin
That has a name: but there's no bottom, none,
In my voluptuousness: your wives, your daughters,
Your matrons and your maids, could not fill up
The cistern of my lust, and my desire
All continent impediments would o'erbear
That did oppose my will: better Macbeth
Than such an one to reign.
MACDUFF
Boundless intemperance
In nature is a tyranny; it hath been
The untimely emptying of the happy throne
And fall of many kings. But fear not yet
To take upon you what is yours: you may
Convey your pleasures in a spacious plenty,
And yet seem cold, the time you may so hoodwink.
We have willing dames enough: there cannot be
That vulture in you, to devour so many
As will to greatness dedicate themselves,
Finding it so inclined.
MALCOLM
With this there grows
In my most ill-composed affection such
A stanchless avarice that, were I king,
I should cut off the nobles for their lands,
Desire his jewels and this other's house:
And my more-having would be as a sauce
To make me hunger more; that I should forge
Quarrels unjust against the good and loyal,
Destroying them for wealth.
MACDUFF
This avarice
Sticks deeper, grows with more pernicious root
Than summer-seeming lust, and it hath been
The sword of our slain kings: yet do not fear;
Scotland hath foisons to fill up your will.
Of your mere own: all these are portable,
With other graces weigh'd.
MALCOLM
But I have none: the king-becoming graces,
As justice, verity, temperance, stableness,
Bounty, perseverance, mercy, lowliness,
Devotion, patience, courage, fortitude,
I have no relish of them, but abound
In the division of each several crime,
Acting it many ways. Nay, had I power, I should
Pour the sweet milk of concord into hell,
Uproar the universal peace, confound
All unity on earth.
MACDUFF
O Scotland, Scotland!
MALCOLM
If such a one be fit to govern, speak:
I am as I have spoken.
MACDUFF
Fit to govern!
No, not to live. O nation miserable,
With an untitled tyrant bloody-scepter'd,
When shalt thou see thy wholesome days again,
Since that the truest issue of thy throne
By his own interdiction stands accursed,
And does blaspheme his breed? Thy royal father
Was a most sainted king: the queen that bore thee,
Oftener upon her knees than on her feet,
Died every day she lived. Fare thee well!
These evils thou repeat'st upon thyself
Have banish'd me from Scotland. O my breast,
Thy hope ends here!
MALCOLM
Macduff, this noble passion,
Child of integrity, hath from my soul
Wiped the black scruples, reconciled my thoughts
To thy good truth and honour. Devilish Macbeth
By many of these trains hath sought to win me
Into his power, and modest wisdom plucks me
From over-credulous haste: but God above
Deal between thee and me! for even now
I put myself to thy direction, and
Unspeak mine own detraction, here abjure
The taints and blames I laid upon myself,
For strangers to my nature. I am yet
Unknown to woman, never was forsworn,
Scarcely have coveted what was mine own,
At no time broke my faith, would not betray
The devil to his fellow and delight
No less in truth than life: my first false speaking
Was this upon myself: what I am truly,
Is thine and my poor country's to command:
Whither indeed, before thy here-approach,
Old Siward, with ten thousand warlike men,
Already at a point, was setting forth.
Now we'll together; and the chance of goodness
Be like our warranted quarrel! Why are you silent?
MACDUFF
Such welcome and unwelcome things at once
'Tis hard to reconcile.
[Enter a Doctor]
MALCOLM
Well; more anon.--Comes the king forth, I pray you?
Doctor
Ay, sir; there are a crew of wretched souls
That stay his cure: their malady convinces
The great assay of art; but at his touch--
Such sanctity hath heaven given his hand--
They presently amend.
MALCOLM
I thank you, doctor.
[Exit Doctor]
MACDUFF
What's the disease he means?
MALCOLM
'Tis call'd the evil:
A most miraculous work in this good king;
Which often, since my here-remain in England,
I have seen him do. How he solicits heaven,
Himself best knows: but strangely-visited people,
All swoln and ulcerous, pitiful to the eye,
The mere despair of surgery, he cures,
Hanging a golden stamp about their necks,
Put on with holy prayers: and 'tis spoken,
To the succeeding royalty he leaves
The healing benediction. With this strange virtue,
He hath a heavenly gift of prophecy,
And sundry blessings hang about his throne,
That speak him full of grace.
[Enter ROSS]
MACDUFF
See, who comes here?
MALCOLM
My countryman; but yet I know him not.
MACDUFF
My ever-gentle cousin, welcome hither.
MALCOLM
I know him now. Good God, betimes remove
The means that makes us strangers!
MACDUFF
Stands Scotland where it did?
ROSS
Alas, poor country!
Almost afraid to know itself. It cannot
Be call'd our mother, but our grave; where nothing,
But who knows nothing, is once seen to smile;
Where sighs and groans and shrieks that rend the air
Are made, not mark'd; where violent sorrow seems
A modern ecstasy; the dead man's knell
Is there scarce ask'd for who; and good men's lives
Expire before the flowers in their caps,
Dying or ere they sicken.
MACDUFF
O, relation
Too nice, and yet too true!
MALCOLM
What's the newest grief?
ROSS
That of an hour's age doth hiss the speaker:
Each minute teems a new one.
MACDUFF
How does my wife?
MACDUFF
And all my children?
MACDUFF
The tyrant has not batter'd at their peace?
ROSS
No; they were well at peace when I did leave 'em.
MACDUFF
But not a niggard of your speech: how goes't?
ROSS
When I came hither to transport the tidings,
Which I have heavily borne, there ran a rumour
Of many worthy fellows that were out;
Which was to my belief witness'd the rather,
For that I saw the tyrant's power a-foot:
Now is the time of help; your eye in Scotland
Would create soldiers, make our women fight,
To doff their dire distresses.
MALCOLM
Be't their comfort
We are coming thither: gracious England hath
Lent us good Siward and ten thousand men;
An older and a better soldier none
That Christendom gives out.
ROSS
Would I could answer
This comfort with the like! But I have words
That would be howl'd out in the desert air,
Where hearing should not latch them.
MACDUFF
What concern they?
The general cause? or is it a fee-grief
Due to some single breast?
ROSS
No mind that's honest
But in it shares some woe; though the main part
Pertains to you alone.
MACDUFF
If it be mine,
Keep it not from me, quickly let me have it.
ROSS
Let not your ears despise my tongue for ever,
Which shall possess them with the heaviest sound
That ever yet they heard.
MACDUFF
Hum! I guess at it.
ROSS
Your castle is surprised; your wife and babes
Savagely slaughter'd: to relate the manner,
Were, on the quarry of these murder'd deer,
To add the death of you.
MALCOLM
Merciful heaven!
What, man! ne'er pull your hat upon your brows;
Give sorrow words: the grief that does not speak
Whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break.
ROSS
Wife, children, servants, all
That could be found.
MACDUFF
And I must be from thence!
My wife kill'd too?
MALCOLM
Be comforted:
Let's make us medicines of our great revenge,
To cure this deadly grief.
MACDUFF
He has no children. All my pretty ones?
Did you say all? O hell-kite! All?
What, all my pretty chickens and their dam
At one fell swoop?
MALCOLM
Dispute it like a man.
MACDUFF
I shall do so;
But I must also feel it as a man:
I cannot but remember such things were,
That were most precious to me. Did heaven look on,
And would not take their part? Sinful Macduff,
They were all struck for thee! naught that I am,
Not for their own demerits, but for mine,
Fell slaughter on their souls. Heaven rest them now!
MALCOLM
Be this the whetstone of your sword: let grief
Convert to anger; blunt not the heart, enrage it.
MACDUFF
O, I could play the woman with mine eyes
And braggart with my tongue! But, gentle heavens,
Cut short all intermission; front to front
Bring thou this fiend of Scotland and myself;
Within my sword's length set him; if he 'scape,
Heaven forgive him too!
MALCOLM
This tune goes manly.
Come, go we to the king; our power is ready;
Our lack is nothing but our leave; Macbeth
Is ripe for shaking, and the powers above
Put on their instruments. Receive what cheer you may:
The night is long that never finds the day.
[Exeunt]

Robert C. Martin (aka Uncle Bob) is a carismatic speaker. He is clear and consise in his descriptions and entertaining
in his presentations. I've obtained an electronic version of his talk and can provide this to those who are interessted.
Just send me an email.
The talk was split into two parts. The first half of the day uncle Bob spent going thorough the different principles and
practices of agile development. In the second half, Dave Thomas talked about the management view. If you don't know
Dave Thomas (not the pragmatic programmer), he is the one who managed the Eclipse project starting with IBM Visual Age,
so you know he knows a thing or two about scaling agile development.
Bob started off by talking about measurements, under the banner in order to manage we need data. I'm a little embarrased
to say that this surprised me, because that means that I have bought into the misconceptions that is going around about
agile development that it lacks dicipline. Bob uses story points (or function points) to measure what a team can perform
in a week, and then accompany this with a chart showing the remaining function points. With this you can estimate your
delivery date. We'll come back to how he comes up with these function points.
He then went on to talk about the fact that in most projects the delivery date is what is fixed earliest, and the
requirements never are and never should be.
The problem with the waterfall and other document centric approaches (apart its
history) is that it lets you spend a
lot of time in the start of the project without producing tangible results. Yes, a requirments document is tangible and
sometimes even helpful, but if you spend the first seven months of a project doing requirements and only have three left
for implementation it will fail no matter how good the implementation team is. The problem is really that there is no
way to determine if a requirements document is done, or when a design document is done. It is however no problem to
define when an implementation is done, and hence the problems in the end. Also the practice of putting in the quality
at the end is doomed since you rearly have time to do a good job when the implementation fase slips.
He then proceeded to talk about
agile development and the
different practices or principles in it. Now I don't want this blog entry to turn into a tutorial on agile development,
so please follow the link above for an overview of agile development ala Robert Martin.
Finally, Bob, did a programming excercise to show test driven development. He set out to write a bowling scoring game
(from his book). The point of the excercise was to show that you will arrive at a different and simpler solution that
with up-front design. First we did a collaborative design and arrived at classes like Game, Frame, Roll, and Tenth Frame
(to handle the special 3 roll possibility of the last frame). Bob then starts from scratch with TDD approach. Simple
creation test for Game, first test case all rolls scoring zero (gutter game), nest test all rolls scoring 1, next test
one spare, next test one strike and final test all strikes. This produces one class Game with two methods roll(), which
registeres the pins taken down in each roll and score() which very accurately captured a clear bowling scoring
algorithm. It was interessting to watch. I actually didn't realize he had finished.
Then we had Dave Thomas come in to tell us about scaling and how to fit in with management. Basically his statement was,
give them whatever you have to to keep them happy, generate requirements documents from your source or Fitness cases,
generate the plan, fake it if you have to to keep them off your back. Internally teams scale into teams of teams with
aggregation of the practices. This comes with the price of longer time intervals between control at the top level, so
you need to be able to trust the people running the teams and that they can perform. The team structure can be evolved
starting with a few people or architected from the start. Stories at the top level are broken down and divided amongst
the team according to the structure. This is not so relevant to us, as we don't have to scale that high, but some of it
could be useful.
To sum up, this sessions answered a lot of questions for me personally, and I'm going to take with me these new ideas
when we look at how we can take a step furter and improve the way we run IT projects.
