*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Saturday, June 5th, NOON @ the firestorm cafe
Andrew Winnenberg (devious) will be showing us what can be done with DD in an informative must-see command line presentation...
what is DD ??
dd is a very powerful tool, and a very common *nix program that is even available in OSX... it is an excellent example of the UNIX philosophy where a very simple tool can become so useful and important... i found DD to be an easy-ish way for me to take a common task that i do, and put it in the command line, helping me 'get my feet wet' using the terminal...
*as always, any ideas, suggestions or volunteers for presentations are welcome
*also a reminder about the chat channel on freenode @ #wnclug
