[14:14] <DammitJim> anybody use ubuntu with a touchscreen display?
[15:12] <zoopster> someone does DammitJim
[15:13] <mhall119> probably several people do
[15:26] <DammitJim> I wanna know 'cause I want to buy one
[15:41] <mhall119> DammitJim: a tablet?
[15:41] <mhall119> or just touch screen monitor?
[16:01] <DammitJim> either one
[16:02] <DammitJim> I'm just trying to figure out if that should be an option for a machine for my wife
[16:02] <DammitJim> but maybe it isn't
[16:09] <zoopster> it's a bit premature imho...the touch work is progressing nicely, but not quite there yet
[16:10] <jck77> hey DammitJim I will recoomend you the asus transformer with android
[16:10] <jck77> http://goo.gl/EHfnS
[16:11] <jck77> you can then get the keyboard and its a netbook
[17:46] <DammitJim> jck77, is that what you have?
[17:46] <DammitJim> I was looking at the ideapad tablet k1 from Lenovo
[17:47] <jck77> DammitJim: not me, a co-worker has one
[17:48] <jck77> you should go to a best buy and try it 
[17:48] <jck77> they have it on display
[19:38] <zoopster> mhall119: question for you
[20:10] <mhall119> zoopster: answer
[20:11] <zoopster> heh
[20:11] <zoopster> do you write html code or simply "program" in django or a little of both
[20:11] <zoopster> curious if you use a IDE for any of that
[20:11] <mhall119> little bit of both
[20:12] <mhall119> I use GEdit
[20:12] <zoopster> does it highlight syntax at all?
[20:12] <mhall119> oh yeah
[20:12] <zoopster> ok
[20:12] <zoopster> what about js...do you write any js to go along with it?
[20:12] <mhall119> it uses the GTKSourceView widget, which highlights all kinds of syntax
[20:12] <zoopster> ah
[20:12] <zoopster> well then
[20:12] <mhall119> as little as possible ;)
[20:12] <zoopster> heh
[20:12]  * mhall119 isn't a big JS fan
[20:13] <zoopster> ok...that helps
[20:13] <zoopster> thanks
[20:13] <mhall119> there's a "ClassBrowser" plugin for Gedit which gives you a nice structure tree for most languages
[20:14] <zoopster> interesting...didn't realize gedit had that stuff...very cool
[20:14] <mhall119> I also use the Right Side Pane plugin
[20:14] <mhall119> oh yeah, it's quite capable
[20:28] <itnet7> mhall119: sweet! I have used the "better python console" plugin but didn't know about the ClassBrowser
[20:31] <maxolasersquad> I'm just going to through out an unsolicited "VIM FTW".
[20:33] <itnet7> :-)
