Today while working on the Cookbook (an update coming soon to a webbrowser near you) i had to show differences between revisions. Up until now GNU diff was used but it wasn’t the most elegant and good looking solutions (but it worked). I’ve used PEAR Text_Diff , gathered rendered for an old /customized version from Tikiwiki and created a helper for it. It’s also a good opportunity to test Assembla/Trac/Git and it looks really great right now.

Today is the release of Ubuntu 8.04 and although i use Arch linux for some time now (more KISS) i advice all windows users/linux newbies to try Ubuntu (my GF uses it all the time). And there is a cheat sheet with useful administrator commands.
