OS X Screencast to animated GIF

This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.

Instructions

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

In addition to awesome docs #228, Bower deserves a proper logo. See below for sketches. I'm curious if you think any of these are worth me putting more effort into.

Take a look at Yeoman right now.

The other two entities have awesome logos. Bower's got to represent.

tmux handy commands and references

####sessions

tmux new -s session_name      # new session by name
tmux attach -t session_name     # attach session by name (you can also use a instead of attach)
tmux switch -t session_name     # switch session by name (you can also use a instead of attach)
tmux list-sessions              # list existing sessions
bind-key : new -s session_name  # new session from within a session  
// detach
tmux detach # detach currently attached session

How to: Allow Node to bind to port 80 without sudo

TL;DR

Only do this if you understand the consequences: all node programs will be able to bind on ports < 1024

sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /usr/local/bin/node

Important: your node location may vary. Use which node to find it, or use it directly in the command:

	#ack is a tool like grep, designed for programmers with large trees of heterogeneous source code

	#to install ack, see http://betterthangrep.com/
	#to use ack, launch terminal (mac osx) and type 'ack <some_keywords>'
	#ack will search all files in the current directory & sub-directories

	#here's how I have my config file setup. this file is located on mac osx here
	# ~/.ackrc

	# Always sort the files

	import gifAnimation.*;
	GifMaker gifExport;

	int loopFrames = 60;
	PVector maskOrigin;
	Float maskWidth = 250.0;
	float orbitWidth = 100.0;

	void setup() {
	gifExport = new GifMaker(this, "export.gif", 30);

	# You have your csv data and it looks like so... It's in a file named "my_data.csv" and we want to import it into a table named "my_things".

	"1", "Something", "0.50", "2013-05-05 10:00:00"
	"2", "Another thing", "1.50", "2013-06-05 10:30:00"

	# Now you want to import it, go to the command line and type:

	$ PGPASSWORD=PWHERE psql -h HOSTHERE -U USERHERE DBNAMEHERE -c "\copy my_things FROM 'my_data.csv' WITH CSV;"

	# Voila! It's impoted. Now if you want to wipe it out and import a fresh one, you would do this:

	;(function ($, window) {

	var intervals = {};
	var removeListener = function(selector) {

	if (intervals[selector]) {

	window.clearInterval(intervals[selector]);
	intervals[selector] = null;
	}

	#!/bin/bash

	function printit {
	echo "This is from an embedded function: $1"
	}

	function printthat {
	echo "This is the first line."
	$1 $2
	echo "This is the third line."
