Customizing gedit as a Web Developer's IDE As a web developer and programmer, I prefer to use a powerful text editor over WYSIWYG software. I write code using HTML/XHTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, MySQL, Ruby, etc. The standard text editor that comes with GNOME is much more powerful than you may know.

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Apache2, BIND, Dovecot, ISPConfig 3) - Page 5 16 Install PureFTPd And Quota PureFTPd and quota can be installed with the following command: apt-get install pure-ftpd-common pure-ftpd-mysql quota quotatool Edit the file /etc/default/pure-ftpd-common... vi /etc/default/pure-ftpd-common Unsettings: Tool To Disable Global Menu, Overlay Scrollbars And Tweak Unity Unsettings is an Unity tweak tool that comes with some unique features, like: disable the global menu and overlay scrollbars or easily add applications to the systray whitelist. Besides these, the application also comes with features found in other Unity tweaking tools such as changing the Unity launcher look and behaviour, change the theme (icons, GTK, Metacity or cursor) and fonts and more. Using Unsettings, the changes aren't applied immediately and you'll have to click the "Apply settings" button for this which is a good thing as it prevents accidental changes. Also, please note that changing some settings like enabling / disabling the global menu, overlay scrollbars and others, requires you log out and then log back in to see the changes. Unsettings also comes with options to save and load saved profiles as well as to reset all the Unity settings to default (that's another unique feature, not found in other GUI tools).

10 of the Best Unity Lenses & Scopes for Ubuntu 11.10 It’s somewhat apt that Ubuntu’s ‘Lenses’ feature has brought Unity into clearer focus for many of its initial critics. The search-orientated display windows – called ‘Lenses’ – make finding specific files, apps or information easy to do thanks to their tuned ‘search backends’ – called Scopes’.
