Instructions on how to install Magic the Gathering Online on macOS with Retina support.

Installing MTGO on macOS using Wine, and making it look pretty!

The following instructions are heavily inspired by @pauleve. I modified his instructions and then added details about how to make a shortcut and support Retina/HiDPI displays.

Installing MTGO (and Wine and Homebrew and Xquartz and ...)

  1. Install Homebrew by opening Terminal and executing the following command:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

An example configuration for Tomcat as systemd service. #tomcat #systemd #systemd.service

README

Let Tomcat is download and installed under /opt/tomcat. Also, let tomcat be a non-provileged user under which the server will be running.

We assume that we keep server's binaries under /opt/tomcat and we will create a server instance named foo under /var/tomcat/ (carrying its own conf, logs, webapps, work, lib directories). See also https://dzone.com/articles/running-multiple-tomcat.

Create a template service unit file at /etc/systemd/system/[email protected]:

# Hello, and welcome to makefile basics.
#
# You will learn why `make` is so great, and why, despite its "weird" syntax,
# it is actually a highly expressive, efficient, and powerful way to build
# programs.
#
# Once you're done here, go to
# http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html
# to learn SOOOO much more.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
