General Notes Getting Started General Notes 1. This is an Unofficial Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) Starter Guide. It is neither associated with Ubuntu nor with Canonical Ltd. 2. This guide can be discussed at the official UbuntuGuide.org Forum at ubuntuforums.org. Stop by and join the discussion. 3. If you see a bluish box, this means you have to execute the commands in Terminal mode (Applications -> Accesories -> Terminal) or use the content of that box as mentioned in some other instructions. 4. To reduce typo mistakes, copy and paste the commands into Terminal mode (right click on the commands -> "Copy" or "Paste". You can also use Ctrl+C to copy and Shift+Insert to paste it) 5. "sudo" means superuser do. "sudo" will prompt for your "Password:". Please specify your user password 6. If you want more information about any command, simply look at the manual page for it using the "man" command. For example, "man sudo" will display the manual page for the "sudo" command. 7. If you are tired of typing "aptitude" all the time, Read #How to aptitude the easy way (Synaptic) 8. "aptitude" and "wget" requires Internet connection to install/update/download programs 9. All references to "apt-get" have been replaced with "aptitude". You may still safely use "apt- get" if you wish. This may be discussed in the Ubuntu Forums 10.To download file, right click on the link -> Select "Save Link As..." -> Make sure file name and extension are correct 11.If you wish to help translating Ubuntu to your native language or to help Ubuntu otherwise visit https://launchpad.net/ 12.May the "humanity to others" spirit be with you always... If you are using 64-bit version replace any "i386" with "amd64" [edit] Getting Started [edit] Where to view Ubuntu screenshots / screencast • Ubuntu 7.04(Feisty Fawn) Screenshots Tour • Ubuntuclips.org - video howto's for human beings • Ubuntu Video - linux videos for human beings [edit] Where to view Kubuntu screenshots / screencast • Kubuntu 7.04(Feisty Fawn) Screenshots Tour [edit] Where to view Xubuntu screenshots / screencast • Xubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) Screenshots Tour • Official Xubuntu screenshots [edit] Where to look for new programs • http://gnomefiles.org/ • http://www.kde-apps.org/ • http://freshmeat.net • http://sourceforge.net/ [edit] Where to look for style elements for your desktop • http://art.gnome.org/ • http://www.gnome-look.org/ • http://www.kde-look.org/ • http://xfce-look.org/ [edit] Are there other *buntu guides? • http://xubuntuguide.org • Ubuntu Step By Step Guides For Ubuntu Users Ubuntu Users Community Website [edit] Upgrade Ubuntu Edgy to Ubuntu Feisty • Step By Step Upgrade Guide with Screenshots • How to Upgrade Ubuntu Edgy Server to Feisty Server [edit] How to add extra repositories • Read #General Notes • You can add extra repositories using the Software Sources application, which can be found in the menu: System -> Administration -> Software Sources. Check the repositories you think you will need (main, universe, restricted, multiverse). You probably won't need the 'sources' repository. This is the recommended way to add extra repositories: • Another way to add extra repositories is to use following steps (do this at your own risk): • Create a backup of your current list of sources. sudo cp -p /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list_backup • Open the list of sources in a text editor Ubuntu (GNOME) users: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list Kubuntu (KDE) users: sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list Other users (if the above don't work): sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list • Use the following lines as a template to guide you in editing the repositories in sources.list: You can try replacing the current contents of sources.list with the following lines To use your local mirror you can add "cc." before archive.ubuntu.com, where cc = your country code e.g. deb http://lv.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main restricted universe multiverse ## See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to ## newer versions of the distribution. ## Add comments (##) in front of any line to remove it from being checked. ## Use the following sources.list at your own risk. ## Uncomment deb-src if you wish to download the source packages ## If you have a install CD you can add it to the reposity using 'apt-cdrom add' ## which will add a line similar to the following: #deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn_ - Beta i386 (20070322.1)]/ feisty main restricted deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted #deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted ## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the ## distribution. deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates main restricted #deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates main restricted ## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu ## team, and may not be under a free licence. Please satisfy yourself as to ## your rights to use the software. Also, please note that software in ## universe WILL NOT receive any review or updates from the Ubuntu security ## team. deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty universe #deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty universe ## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu ## team, and may not be under a free licence.

Also, please note that software in ## multiverse WILL NOT receive any review or updates from the Ubuntu ## security team. deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty multiverse #deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty multiverse ## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'backports' ## repository. ## N.B. software from this repository may not have been tested as ## extensively as that contained in the main release, although it includes ## newer versions of some applications which may provide useful features. ## Also, please note that software in backports WILL NOT receive any review ## or updates from the Ubuntu security team. deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-backports main restricted universe multiverse #deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-backports main restricted universe multiverse deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security main restricted #deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security main restricted deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security universe #deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security universe deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security multiverse #deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty-security multiverse ## PLF REPOSITORY (Unsupported. May contain illegal packages. Use at own risk.) ## Medibuntu - Ubuntu 7.04 "feisty fawn" ## Please report any bug on https://launchpad.net/products/medibuntu/+bugs deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ feisty free non-free #deb-src http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ feisty free non-free ## CANONICAL COMMERCIAL REPOSITORY (Hosted on Canonical servers, not Ubuntu ## servers.

  • Jedit: Isabelle/Jedit
    jEdit ∀ = Isabelle α λ β → Isabelle/jEdit Makarius Wenzel 5 December 2013 Abstract Isabelle/jEdit is a fully-featured Prover IDE, based on Isabelle/Scala and the jEdit text editor. This document provides an overview of general principles and its main IDE functionality. i Isabelle's user interface is no advance over LCF's, which is widely condemned as \user-unfriendly": hard to use, bewildering to begin- ners. Hence the interest in proof editors, where a proof can be con- structed and modified rule-by-rule using windows, mouse, and menus. But Edinburgh LCF was invented because real proofs require millions of inferences. Sophisticated tools | rules, tactics and tacticals, the language ML, the logics themselves | are hard to learn, yet they are essential. We may demand a mouse, but we need better education and training. Lawrence C.

It is a midweight OS designed to combine an elegant and efficient desktop with simple configuration, high stability, solid performance and medium-sized footprint. Relying on the excellent upstream work by Linux and the open-source community, we deploy Xfce 4.12 as Desktop Environment on top of a Debian Stable base, drawing from the core antiX system. Ongoing backports and outside additions to our Repos serve to keep components current with developments.

  • Set-Up Environment
    Set-up Environment Note: While this instruction utilises Windows to demonstrate the installation process, it does apply to other operating systems including Mac OS and Linux. Step 1. Install MinGW on Windows (skip this step if you use Mac OS or Linux) FYI: “MinGW” is a Windows implementation of C compiler that will convert your C source code into executable files. For Mac OS and Linux, C compilers should have already been installed. If you have not already installed “MinGW” for Windows, then use the other document <Install MinGW> on the same LMS page to install it. “MinGW” needs to be installed (or is not installed correctly) if you get the following error message: 'gcc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Step 2.1 Check if you have Java SE 11 (JDK) installed FYI: You are not required to know what “JDK” stands for and what it means. Just bear in mind that it is a prerequisite to running jEdit 5.6.0. How do I know if I have Java installed? Windows: Select from the “Control Panel” => “Programs and Features” and check if you can find an entry called “Java(TM) SE Development Kit 11.0.10 (64-bit)” (or later). If you see such an entry, everything is fine and you can go to Step 3. Otherwise, you do not have Java installed and need to go to Step 2.2 Mac OS / Linux: Open “Terminal” and type “java -version”. If you can see the line: java version “11.0.10” or later, everything is fine and you can go to Step 3.

    JETracer - A Framework for Java GUI Event Tracing Arthur-Jozsef Molnar Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, Babes¸-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Romania [email protected] Keywords: GUI, event, tracing, analysis, instrumentation, Java. Abstract: The present paper introduces the open-source Java Event Tracer (JETracer) framework for real-time tracing of GUI events within applications based on the AWT, Swing or SWT graphical toolkits. Our framework pro- vides a common event model for supported toolkits, the possibility of receiving GUI events in real-time, good performance in the case of complex target applications and the possibility of deployment over a network. The present paper provides the rationale for JETracer, presents related research and details its technical implemen- tation. An empirical evaluation where JETracer is used to trace GUI events within five popular, open-source applications is also presented. 1 INTRODUCTION 1400 professional developers regarding the strate- gies, tools and problems encountered by professionals The graphical user interface (GUI) is currently the when comprehending software. Among the most sig- most pervasive paradigm for human-computer inter- nificant findings are that developers usually interact action. With the continued proliferation of mobile with the target application’s GUI for finding the start- devices, GUI-driven applications remain the norm in ing point of further interaction as well as the use of today’s landscape of pervasive computing. Given IDE’s in parallel with more specialized tools. Of par- their virtual omnipresence and increasing complex- ticular note was the finding that ”industry developers ity across different platforms, it stands to reason that do not use dedicated program comprehension tools tools supporting their lifecycle must keep pace.
