Mail.app deleted my subject column!

-
Like most who prefer a more readable and efficient mail view, you may have used WideMail (or LetterBox) before Snow Leopard. I did, and apparently the Snow Leopard ripped into my plugins and mauled the subject column.

I restored it by deleting a couple nodes from: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist

#1 Quit Mail.app

#2 double click the plist file and remove:
Root/ActiveViewers
Root/TableColumns

#3 Save the plist and start Mail.app

Subject column is now present, done.

Text Sherlock the OpenGrok alternative (Source Code Search Engine)

-
Image
OpenGrok has taken much to long to setup in the past, so in my dissatisfaction, I wrote Text Sherlock . Text Sherlock strives to be an easy to setup version of OpenGrok , written in Python. Think of Text Sherlock as a personal source code search engine. But, it can be run from a dedicated server. Features: It has built-in support for whoosh and xapian backends. It provides a web search interface similar to GitHub. It quickly installs. Set the configuration options in the local_settings.yml script. Then run an installation script in your install directory. Once done, everything is a simple command. Web search interface. Matched document interface. Well documented and it works as expected. Check it out and drop a comment or submit an issue via GitHub. https://github.com/cbess/text-sherlock

Python SUDS with Windows Authentication (SOAP)

-
While intergrating Plone with CRM4, I stumbled upon Suds. However, it didn't support NTLM. Then I found python-ntlm, and merged the two libs. Below is the result. You can add it at the bottom of suds/transport.py class WindowsHttpAuthenticated(HttpAuthenticated): """ Provides Windows (NTLM) http authentication. @ivar pm: The password manager. @ivar handler: The authentication handler. @author: Christopher Bess """ def __init__(self, options): # try to import ntlm support try: from ntlm import HTTPNtlmAuthHandler except ImportError: raise Exception("Cannot import python-ntlm module") return HttpTransport.__init__(self, options) self.pm = u2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm() self.handler = HTTPNtlmAuthHandler.HTTPNtlmAuthHandler(self.pm) self.urlopener = u2.build_opener(self.handler) u2.install_opener(self.urlopener) ...
