Opera 10 alpha download

Posted by Keith under Cool Apps

Heard about Opera 10 scores perfect 100/100 on Acid 3 test?  Download ALPHA version here (Windows).  For other platforms, go here.

I use IE, FF, and Opera.  (No Chrome, no Safari.)  It’s because:

• IE: some sites just requires it.
• FireFox: many good add-on, especially for development.
• Opera: Fast, and I need another browser to use with a different proxy.

"erl -man io" doesn’t work?

Posted by Keith under Erlang, Tips, Unix/Linux

While I was playing around with erlang, I found my installation of erlang’s man page does not work:

$ erl -man io
No manual entry for io

I have compiled and installed (with configure’s prefix option) in /opt/erlang on Solaris 9, put the man page files just in /opt/erlang/man.  Clearly this doesn’t work.  So I did some tracking with:

$ truss -o /tmp/output.txt erl -man io 

(truss is like strace for Solaris; "strace" on Solaris is completely different thing.)

And found that the "/man" directory should live in /opt/erlang/lib/erlang/man.

"erl -man io" works now.  It’s in MANPATH and Windex is created — so just "man io" would work just fine, but I just wanted to fix it anyway.
