MEETING: PLUG This Thurs (7/9)

[PLUG Announcements]

This month we will have 3 presentations.

Aaron Jones will give a presentation on VIM

The bare bones bottom of the barrel basics of VIM. People who reset 
their computer because
they accidently opened VIM and don’t know how to get out of it will 
enjoy this. We will discuss
the three modes, how to insert, edit, and save data. I will also 
demonstrate what a .vimrc file can
be used for when customizing VIM.

I am a VIM user who currently uses VIM for all aspects of both my job as 
well as my personal
life. I really love VIM and it currently doubles as my coding 
environment as well as my Word
Processor.

Phil Waclawski will give us 2 presentations:
The basics of Subsurface (He'll even demonstrate unloading his dives 
from his dive computer), some of the more advanced features as well.

Color correction and other basic photo editing using Gimp, focusing on 
SCUBA photos that have a bad blue "washout" effect.

Phil Waclawski is a Computer Information Systems Faculty at Mesa 
Community College. He teaches large portions of the LAMP stack (Linux 
OS, Internet Server Set up (apache, nginx etc), MySQL, PHP, Javascript) 
and hopes to have a Python and Blender 3D class in the coming year. He 
plays World of Warcraft on Wine, and has real world hobbies of black 
smithing, metal work, leather work, archery and SCUBA to name a few.

The meeting will start at 7pm at The Desert Breeze Substation.  People 
start arriving as early as 6pm, so if you would like to chat for a 
while, arrive a little early.
