A Long Time

Yes, it has been ... I lost interest in my blog for a long time however I'll have another go at it.

This blog is about Debian Linux, FreeBSD, Aviation and anything else I take a shine to.  Oh, did I mention Emacs, Groff and LaTeX?  Of course there is "Plain Text Accounting" ... oh I could go on.

If you have an unused laptop or computer lying around, how about you go to "Linux Mint" and download the "Linux Mint Debian Edition" (LMDE5) installation iso.  It will give you a gentle introduction to Linux, keep you safe and let you see what you can do for free on your machine.

I have been using Debian for perhaps 20 years .. have not paid for software for as long as I can remember (I'm old so that may not be as long as you might think).

Today's hook.

"Emacs for OSX"

I've recently realised that if you have that on your Mac, all the Mac key combinations work, which makes Emacs that much more freindly out of the box.  But beware ... Emacs is like going down Alice's rabbit hole .. there is so much to find out.
