[Sheflug] The Keyboard is Mightier than the Mouse
Hi
http://www.cs.manchester.ac.uk/aboutus/events/linux-workshops/
" Most 6th form computing students have heard of Linux, many have
tried it a bit, some significantly more, but few have been exposed to
its true power. Meanwhile computing syllabi teach about command line
interfaces, often portraying them as old fashioned or a fall-back for
when resources are scarce. In truth the Linux/UNIX Command Line
Interface is not merely an arcane relic, but a liberating and
empowering environment for clever users, and is likely to remain so
forever. This workshop offers hands-on tasters designed to inspire
computing students who might never otherwise have the opportunity to
feel that power -- a truly mind broadening experience.
The workshop is led by Dr. John Latham, a java programming specialist
and Linux user and enthusiast. "
