Adding a new java library to Netbeans

hi, i needed to add a new java library to NetBeans so that it becomes easier to code. I just couldn't get it how to do it ,then finally i got the solution on irc.
here are the steps so that you don't feel harassed the next time :)

1. Save the folder in the home directory, e.g /home/yourloginname.
2. Now, open NetBeans, go to the Project you've created and there you'll find the Library. There you can add a new Jar file .
3. To add the docs you need Library Manager which is under Tools. There in the Javadoc tab you can add the doc folder.
4.. Then you also need to add this folder under the same library package as you added the Jar file
That's it , njoy coding .
Hope that was useful. :)

BOTS BOTS

hello, i wanted to make a bot for our channel on IRC . At first i thought that Perl would be quite useful and is the most preferred language specially for this purpose but why learn new semantics when Java is at rescue? Yes, there is this pirbot module in java which has all the functionalities to help you build it.
Thanks Java :)

P.S: It's always better btw if you learn more languages. I was in a hurry though.

Love open source :)

Tweet through terminal!

I was experimenting with how to make a fast tweet when i stumbled upon an article as to how can one tweet right from one's terminal.
for this you need to install a very small programme called curl and then open the terminal and write:

curl -u yourusername:yourpassword -d status = "your status message" http://www.twitter.com/statuses/updates.xml

and for those who want the easier way out can try for gtwitter but i think it won't work under proxy server, so better watch out !

be free, use open source :)

Changing login-screen in ubuntu 9.10

This one's pretty interesting, i wanted to change the user-icon in ubuntu 9.10 login screen but found that from this edition of ubuntu users were not allowed to mess up with it , so i searched and searched and found that there was a way out!

open the terminal , type
usr/bin/gnome-about-me
and you will see a window pop up, here you can choose the icon of your choice!
You can even add new icons in the folder /usr/share/pixmaps/faces and can choose from them

Happy Linuxing :)
