Associate a syntax set with a file type in vim

Vim is an excellent text editor that can do amazing stuffs.

When the web server is configured to treat html as php file, the vim editor needs to configured to recognize all the php functions within the html. To do that,

Code:

vim /~.vimrc

to open the configure file.

and add one file to the bottom

Code:

autocmd FileType html set syntax=php

The latest vim has syntax turned on automatically anyway. If not, add this line to your config file

Code:

set sytax on

grep email address from a Word file

We just have a task to extract all email addresses from a word document text file containing more than 800 pages. The size of the doc file is 250M. But the size does not matter. To extract the email address, we need to

1. convert the .docx file into a plain text file.

2. transfer the text file to a Linux machine

3. use grep to extract the email address and save result.
grep -E -o --color "\b[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\b" email_list.txt > output.txt

This code is obtained from http://enure.net

4. Use Excel to open the text file and save it as a workbook.

5. Do the mailshot using the Excel file

XML driven flash components

Flash can be very nice to enhance the usability and aesthetic of the web site. A graphic designer might be very keen to get creative and design his/her own flash. For a programmer, he would like something that can be controlled by XML without getting his hands dirty to write action scripts. XML itself can be generated using any server side script such as PHP/Python/Perl/Ruby/ASP.

Here you can find a lot of XML driven flash:

and here a few show cases
