Using Sublime Text on Bash on Windows

1. First make sure to install rsub in Bash (follow the tutorial here) and make sure it is in the $PATH environment variable.

2. Create a symlink to the windows executable of Sublime Text so it is the $PATH (I use the ~/bin/ directory that I created). I did this by adding the following lines to my ~/.bashrc because I have found symlinks to be buggy in the Bash environment. This ensures the symlink is re-created each time Bash starts up. (Note: your installation path to the Sublime Text executable may vary)

   $ ln -sfn "$HOME/bin/wsub" "/mnt/d/Program Files/Sublime Text 3/subl.exe"

Editing Files Remotely via SSH on SublimeText 3

Sometimes you need to edit a file on a remote server, but using vim/emacs is not very practical, due to lag and speed of screen refresh.

TextMate users have the classic rmate, but it was implemented in Ruby, which may not be available on the remote server.

A better option is to use this version of rmate, implemented in pure Bash. It's a single file, self-contained, and with no external dependencies.

How to enable Ethernet/SSH over USB on a Raspberry Pi Zero

1. Flash the latest kernel onto an SD card using the instructions here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/README.md

2. Mount the SD card and browse to the boot partition using a file browser

3. Enable the USB controller by opening up the config.txt file and adding a new line which contains the following: dtoverlay=dwc2

4. Enable the ethernet gadget driver by opening up the cmdline.txt file and add the following text to the end of the line: modules-load=dwc2,g_ether

Raspberry Pi Multi-User Boot Script Setup

This will show how you can setup scripts that will run on bootup of a Raspberry Pi. Any user in the /home/ directory where the name of the user matches the name of their home directory will be able to take advantage of this setup, as well as the root user.

1. Add the following code to the file: /etc/rc.local, but be sure to leave the last line of the file as exit 0

# Startup scripts
## Root

This script will update your cs server's maplist file for you based on tiers that are stored in a database.
To get it to work, make sure that you have the 'CSServer.py' file in the same directory as this script,
then change the variables in the 'global variables' section as needed.
This will overwrite the map list file as needed, and will append changes to the new maps text file if enabled.
