Sweet Success!

OK, I'm now living my dream. Here I am, in RedWing Coffee Shop, using a free node provided by personaltelco.net. Node 561 to be exact. Took awhile to get dhcp to work. Never managed to connect at LinuxFest. But airports worked fine, so I knew it could be done.

I went off coffee about 3 weeks ago, almost a month now, so I just had some green tea, quiche... anyway, this was the dream. Time to pick up Tara from school -- but as a final step, let's use aap to upload this to the blog.

First Post

This was my first post to this world-readable blog. Thanks to Jerrit, I'd played around with it earlier on my laptop. Then I found this article in Linux Journal about aap, an alternative to 'make' or 'ant' (for scripting tasks), and had this fantasy of sitting in some cafe, writing a blog entry, and updating my blog automatically using aap. That's what I'm working on getting working right now.

My first problem with configuration on the server was the footer wouldn't appear, and with it, the sidebar and links to my websites.

aap seems to be working pretty well, although I had a permissions issue with one of the subdirectories it creates locally, to track signatures. That must be because I installed as root, but want to run it as my regular self.

Python Code
#parser py

def f(x):
    return 'f(%s)' % x

def g(x):
    return 'g(%s)' % x

def compose(f1, f2):
    def newf(x):
       return f1(f2(x))
    return lambda x: newf(x) # make return anonymous
