Installing MySQL gem on Mac OS X Leopard

Installing the MySQL gem on Leopard was much more painful than I thought. I had the 64-bit version of MySQL already installed. So I had to uninstall MySQL on Leopard, which was a challenge all on its own. Here is what I did (after stopping MySQL, and backing up my databases first, of course): sudo rm /usr/local/mysql sudo rm -rf /usr/local/mysql* sudo rm →

Configuring Gmail as SMTP Relay on Elastix

The few standard stores to look at decor for is Babies R Us, Pottery Barn, Walmart etc. I discovered and liked Land →

Typing in Indian Languages

I have always been interested in typing in Indian languages on computers, but wanted it to be as easy as typing the equivalent in English and have it transliterate dynamically. Alas, due to the complexity of indian languages and the variation in how people type the equivalent in english, it is hard for that method to be reliably correct all →
