Windowmaker Themes

To set themes in windowmaker type the command

setstyle aay.themed

but the particular folder should contain the style file for the theme. I found some cool themes at http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/918/?topic_id=918 with style files in them. I don't know how to change the style with lsm file. Maybe if I find it soon enough I'll put it here.

OpenGl Makefile

While doing Computer Graphics i spent a lot of time on a Makefile. I am putting a sample one here. Might help you some day ....
==============================================
CC=g++ -w -pg

GL_INC_DIR=/usr/include
GL_LIB_DIR=/usr/lib
X_LIB_DIR=/usr/X11R6/lib

GL_LIBS=-L$(GL_LIB_DIR) -lglut -lGLU -lGL
X_LIBS=-L$(X_LIB_DIR) -lXmu -lX11 -lXi

CFLAGS = -Wall

.PHONY:clean

OBJ = colorcube.o
LIBS = -L $(GL_LIB_DIR) $(GL_LIBS) $(X_LIBS)

all: $(OBJ) colorcube

$(OBJ): %.o : %.cpp
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $< -o $@

colorcube: $(OBJ)
$(CC) $(OBJ) $(LIBS) -o $@

clean:
rm -f ./*~ ./core $(OBJ)

#DO NOT DELETE
colorcube.o : colorcube.h

Command Prompt

To customise your command prompt display add these lines into the end of your .bachrc
PS1="System-\h/\d/\t $ "
\h stands for host
\d stands for day
\t stands for time

This makes my display look like

Unlocking in Use profile in Mozilla

Many times when you logout of linux while using mozilla your profile remains 'in use'. An easy way to use it again is to go into .mozilla directory and in your profile folder and remove the file named 'lock' there.
cd .mozilla
cd Shubham
cd mbhht9k3.slt
rm lock

A guide into CSE

While doing engineering at Computer Science and Engineering in IIT Delhi, it occurred to me that all the things on which I spend hours on the net searching can be put into once page. I am dedicating this page to all such things.
