May 22, 2012 - Thank you so much for the response, I too have started recording tutorials and have struggled to get similar clarity in audio/video. Your tutorials are amazing, you are doing a fantastic job!

May 22, 2012 - This video is pretty old and I was probably using GTK-recordmydesktop for it. But, normally I use FFMPEG. If you search my videos for FFMPEG, there should be one on using it.

May 22, 2012 - Which software do you use to record your tutorials?

Feb 11, 2012 - @chuasmare22: It's just like anything else. If you use it regularly, it will become natural eventually. I mean, you speak English, and I bet you learned that when you very young and it's way more complex then this. Some people say that you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but you can. If you really want to.

Feb 11, 2012 - @chuasmare22: Example. If I want to right a python script that will resize an object in Blender 3D. I just search my Docs for "Blender python size" and I get just a few files in the list and by the title of each I can figure out which one is the one I need.

Feb 11, 2012 - @chuasmare22: When it comes to BASH, yes, most of it I know by heart. But I've use BASH daily, and have been using it for 7 years now. Most other programming languages I have really good notes that I refer to. I keep most my notes on Google Docs, because that way I can accesses them from anywhere and Google makes it very easy to search your documents.

Feb 10, 2012 - so do you memorize all the commands? i just don't seem to be able to do it. i was doing it as you was doing it but when i do it by myself i lose it all. plz help. thanks so much for the video.

Dec 1, 2011 - About two lines echo into one, after I thought I saw that I made a fast comment. The output makes more sense more readable I thought with the first two echos to one line. Then I tried to delete the comment but too late and after that I saw just two line echos. Weary eyes??! -thank you further for the -n : no new line tip.

metalx1000 Says:

Dec 1, 2011 - @rskret: At what point in the video did I make too echo lines output as one line? I don't think I did it in this video, but this is one way of doing it: echo -n "this is a test " echo "this is a nother test" The -n in the first line prevents echo from creating a new line. Just make sure you have an extra space in your first string to the to lines don't run together. Hope this helps.

Nov 30, 2011 - Thanks much. You made the learning faster, terrific!

rskret Says:

Nov 30, 2011 - Interesting how you got the 2 echo lines to output as one line! How?

KaeLuX Says:

Oct 23, 2011 - well, bash is a -Scripting- language, meaning that it does not needs to generate binaries, so no need to compile and run. it just interprets the script as is, sometimes with the help of other programs (echo, as example). Maybe metalx1000 can explain better.

Sep 29, 2011 - @SuperRifet: try "linuxmint(dot)com"

Zillo91 Says:

Sep 27, 2011 - You should get Linux or Mac OS and then just use the terminal and a simple texteditor of choice(i recommend xemacs).

SuperRifet Says:

Sep 25, 2011 - where you download that program

andrewdraper3 Says:

Sep 17, 2011 - The Purpose of bash scripting is making up a list of commands so you don't have to type them at the terminal all the time

metalx1000 Says:

Aug 18, 2011 - @Charsept: Oh, well I have over 300 video tutorial on BASH, feel free to check them out.

Charsept Says:

Aug 18, 2011 - i guess i just didnt recognize this as programming. the kind of programming im used to is a java IDE with a compile button, run button, etc. looks like my professor has some teaching to do.
