11:21 PM Tom_L: that was a while back
11:22 PM rue_shop3: yea I just rebackedup everything too
11:22 PM Tom_L: i don't like the way gedit acts in the new one over ubuntu
11:22 PM Tom_L: it's just not the same
11:22 PM Tom_L: unless you know how to fix ti
11:22 PM Tom_L: it
11:22 PM Tom_L: the search used to stay up until you closed it, now it closes when you click in the main window

11:23 PM Tom_L: you like it for coding?
11:23 PM rue_shop3: yup
11:23 PM rue_shop3: macros
11:23 PM Tom_L: might try it

11:25 PM rue_shop3: you can split a split
11:25 PM rue_shop3: yea, you can be in 3 places in the same file if you want
11:25 PM Tom_L: won't vertical split?

11:25 PM rue_shop3: (just checked)
11:25 PM Tom_L: move to new instance?
11:25 PM Tom_L: that would be ok
11:25 PM rue_shop3: apt-get install nedit
11:26 PM rue_shop3: aha, the fileserver just kicked back in
11:26 PM Tom_L: mine's still updating
11:26 PM Tom_L: i should have waited
11:26 PM rue_shop3: went from 7ah to 12Ah on the ups battery

11:45 PM Tom_L: on a DPDT
11:45 PM Tom_L: X wired with the center to the load will reverse the load direction when it switches right?
