Sustrans’ Connect2 is an ambitious UK-wide project that will make it possible for millions of you to make your everyday journeys in a way that is good for your health and our environment.
Connect2 will transform local travel in 79 cities, towns and villages across the UK by creating new walking and cycling routes for the journeys we all make every day.
They need your support to win £50 million from the Big Lottery Fund
It’d be great if you’d consider voting for this project. There’s plenty of information over at the official Connect2 website and online voting is now open at www.thepeoples50million.org.uk
Thanks!
Occasionally I want to copy some folders from one project to another using Finder, however, this also copies hidden .svn folders over which can cause problems later on. So after a little googling I found a nice way to recursively remove all .svn folders via the Terminal.
1 .Fire up Terminal.app and move to the folder you just copied:
$ cd Sites/mynewsite
Please double check you’re in the right folder with pwd before proceeding
2. You can check for the existence of .svn folders with the command:
$ find . -type d -name .svn
3. You can now pass this search into rm using grave accents (the backwards slanting ones to the left of the Z key)
$ rm -rf `find . -type d -name .svn`
Nice. If you were being really clever you could put this lot into a nice shell script to avoid having to remember the commands.
For a while now Eclipse has seemed a little sluggish when it starts up, and in general use. There’s no way I’d want to stop using it and the excellent CFEclipse plugin so I had the idea to deactivate Aptana and Flex Builder, and what a difference it makes!
I guess I’ll turn these back on if and when the need arises, and for now I’ve installed the much smaller XML Buddy plugin to replace the XML Editor functionality provided by Aptana.
Just go to the “Help / Manage Configuration” menu to change the status of your plugins:
