For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
More or less on the edge of the page

Have you noticed that whenever you're travelling somewhere new, it's always on the edge of two maps sheets and you have to keep cross-referencing?

The Linux, Unix and OS X utilities more and less are used to view a file one page (sheet) at a time, and pressing the space bar takes you a page forward. Did you know that by using the enter (return) key you can also step forward one line at a time, so that you don't have the sheet edge problem once you find the lines that you're interested in!
