| Vivekananda | hey there | 03:39 |
| Vivekananda | everyone. Can someone tell me a good way to compare files eg html files | 03:39 |
| Vivekananda | diff is great but with the <> already in it it is a mess to compare them using diff | 03:40 |
| wxl | Vivekananda: diff | 03:40 |
| wxl | Vivekananda: oh hah i didn't see that. you know you can tweak how diff displays things, right? | 03:56 |
| holstein | wxl: you can /join #ubuntu to follow the progress of the answering of the abovre question | 03:57 |
| wxl | oh i'll pass | 03:57 |
| Unit193 | diff -u | 03:57 |
| wxl | have we landed here yet? http://www.w3.org/wiki/HtmlDiff | 03:57 |
| Vivekananda | wxl: would be great to get a pointer | 03:58 |
| wxl | Vivekananda: go check that url | 03:58 |
| Vivekananda | I have pasted my problem in patebin | 03:58 |
| Vivekananda | ok sure ! | 03:59 |
| Vivekananda | also can you tell me how to change the default program for a file. I mistakenly set libre office for .pdf and since then it is always trying to do that. I tried changing agian but it does not change | 04:00 |
| wxl | also http://furius.ca/xxdiff/ | 04:00 |
| wxl | and http://meldmerge.org/ | 04:00 |
| wxl | right click / open with / click the always checkbox doesn't fix it? | 04:01 |
| Vivekananda | wxl: the question is actually a little different. I am doing a course online for Xpath and my output and the answer output both are a single line full of tags and data from the xml | 04:02 |
| Vivekananda | now it is a long line and I want to compare them both. in meld or xdiff both appear as just one big line each | 04:02 |
| Vivekananda | here is the output -- http://pastebin.com/HF7P2MLG | 04:03 |
| wxl | gvimdiff | 04:04 |
| wxl | and run :set wrap | 04:04 |
| wxl | fixed | 04:04 |
| wxl | d | 04:04 |
| wxl | [SOLVED], carry on :) | 04:04 |
| Vivekananda | so supposing my two files are t1 and t2 I say --- gvimdiff t1 t2 ?? | 04:05 |
| Vivekananda | wxl? | 04:07 |
| Unit193 | Basically. | 04:08 |
| Vivekananda | wxl: If I run that ( gvim t1 t2) it gives me all in one line only | 04:12 |
| Vivekananda | so not a lot of help there :( | 04:12 |
| wxl | Vivekananda: you need to listen better | 04:12 |
| wxl | 2004 < wxl:#lubuntu> and run :set wrap | 04:12 |
| wxl | depending on how much text you have :set scrollbind might help | 04:13 |
| wxl | oh :syncbind might take care of the whole thing | 04:14 |
| Vivekananda | wxl: I am confused by what you said above and can only guess after reading it x3. I initially assumed you gave me instructions for running gvimdiff and assumed run:set wrap was part of those instructions. Now you have written "2004 < wxl:#lubuntu> and run :set wrap | 04:16 |
| Vivekananda | <wxl> depending on how much text you have :set scrollbind might help" not sure what part of that I should run in the terminal and how. Not even sure if you replying to my question or talking about something entirely unconnected | 04:16 |
| Vivekananda | what did I miss ( "you need to listen better") ? | 04:17 |
| Vivekananda | :) | 04:18 |
| Vivekananda | Not even sure if you replied to me or were talking to holstein coz I find my name only referenced once above !! | 04:18 |
| wxl | Vivekananda: i can teach you vim but if you click in both buffers and type ":set nowrap" (without the quotes) and hit enter, it will turn wordwrap on. subsequently, if yuo type ":syncbind" (no quotes) and hit enter, it will sync the scrolling between them. beyond that, go check out vim's website or read the manual :) | 04:45 |

| pmatulis | if i autologin, does that mean i circumvent the standard ways of autostarting an application? | 13:28 |
| pmatulis | (~/.config/autostart/...) | 13:28 |
| holstein | pmatulis: i would try it, but i dont think anything should change on that level | 15:34 |
| pmatulis | holstein: yeah, it doesn't work | 15:40 |
| holstein | pmatulis: "it" being, autostart?.. autostarting some application worked, then you enabled autologin and its not working? | 15:41 |
| pmatulis | holstein: no, i'm autologin always. i didn't test turning that off | 15:42 |
| holstein | pmatulis: then, lets not assume that autologin has anything to do with it.. i would look at the method by which you are autostarting what and how | 15:44 |
| pmatulis | holstein: i'm not assuming, i'm asking a question | 15:44 |
| pmatulis | 08:28 < pmatulis> if i autologin, does that mean i circumvent the standard ways of autostarting an application? | 15:45 |
| holstein | pmatulis: autologin shouldnt be "breaking" autostart.. you can disable it and test the autostart, or look at your autostart setup | 15:46 |
| holstein | http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Autostart those .desktop files can be tricky | 15:47 |
| holstein | i have a custom openbox setup with things like "nitrogen --restore &" in the file ~/.config/openbox/autostart | 15:51 |
