This took me a while to figure out so I’m writing it down for future self and anyone else who needs it.

GitHub flavoured code fences in Hugo

on March 28, 2016. in Programming, Software, Development. A 1 minute read.

This was an undocumented feature until today, so I missed it when I was converting my site to Hugo last week. It is also possible to highlight code examples with GitHub flavoured code fences, or, in other words, with triple backticks ```.

Vim Hugo helper

on March 25, 2016. in Programming, Development. A 2 minute read.

I think I just wrote my first Vim plugin. OK, it’s more a bunch of Vim functions slapped together than an actual plugin, but gotta start somewhere, right?

Find duplicate lines from a CSV

on March 21, 2016. in Development. A 1 minute read.

Finding duplicate lines from a CSV file is something I have to do from time to time, yet not on a regular enough basis to remember it all. Plus, I’m trying to blog more often.

Tags for PHP in Vim

on March 09, 2016. in Software, Programming, Development. A 2 minute read.

One thing I was missing for a long time in Vim is to be able to “jump to definition” in an easy and painless way.

Introducing pugdebug

on April 01, 2015. in Software, Programming, Development. A 2 minute read.

In my spare time in the past few months I was working on a tool that would help
me in my every day job as a PHP programmer. As you may, or may not, know, I’m
using vim as my editor/almost IDE, but one thing that is missing from it is the
ability to debug PHP files remotely. Yes, there are a bunch of plugins out

Vimprovements

on March 26, 2015. in Blablabla, Software, Development. A 3 minute read.

One part where I always felt (and still feel) that I could improve on my Vim usage, is when moving around. I don’t use the mouse, I don’t use the arrow keys, but for a while now I felt that spamming hjkl to get from one place to another is not really efficient. To be honest, it is kind of easy to just press down jjjjjjj … to move down lines. Went a bit too far? Just kk back. But there has to be a better way.

Install PyQt5 in Python 3 virtual environment

on February 04, 2015. in Software, Development, Programming. A 2 minute read.

It’s been a while since I last made something with PyQt, so I decided to check out what’s it like nowadays. I’m curious to see what’s new in Qt5 and how does it differ from Qt4. Qt5 also can run under python 3 so I figured to give it a try.

Trying to automate things on my server, I ended up needing read-only for one group of my bitbucket repos and read-write access to another group.
