Welcome to the rluck wiki!

This wiki contains a random assortment of Dan's notes.

Most of the notes are "technical".

Perhaps the first thing I should write about is this wiki.

I'm still learning about how this wiki works but I have figured out a little bit:

  • I use the web UI to create the wiki.
  • I use the web UI to get Git Access to the wiki
  • The Git-Access-link gave me this git URL:
  • I used that URL to git-clone the wiki to my Mac:
  • On my Mac, in the repo, I found a file named Home.md (which happens to be the file you are reading now).
  • I added text to that file and then did a git commit.
  • I git-pushed that file back to github:
    • git push origin master
  • I see the enhanced copy of Home.md at this URL:

Why do I like this?:

  • I like it because I can use my favorite editor (Emacs) to create web content rather than an in-browser-editor.
  • Also, if my content disappears from github.com, I will have a copy in the git repo on my Mac.
  • And if I ever lose my Mac, my content will be safely stored on github.
