Grab the net with Arduino
How to access a website with multiple virtual hosts from Arduino Ethernet Shield. The problem is if you have used Arduino Ethernet Shield, then you know that you can connect a IP, But if the IP has multiple virtual hosts, it will only connect to default virtual host. If it is commercial shared VPS, You wont be able to make your site default.
Gist is use of HTTP protocol which allows you to define host in your request on virtual host server. Here are the possible headers.

You should also provide basic debugging info like “User-Agent” etc.
IRB Console with history and logging
I spend most time with IRB or Rails/console. These are good settings on which I have settled with over the time. These will allow you to have basic logging and IRB history. Just put these in the ~/.irbrc file (If file doesn’t exist then create one).
Keep doing!
This is a test for the quote post.

Customizing Command Prompt
Working with command prompt on windows is messy. Working with multiple version of a language/compiler on windows is a trip to hell.
Possible workarounds are:
- Set all the paths and add tags in names of binaries
(stupid. You would have to remember all names or you will have to use some naming convention; still you will keep guessing). - Create users and set different versions in each user’s paths
(Foolish. Then changing version will be like logging as different user). - Use a Customized Command Prompt
(Elegant. Developers friendly)
How to Customize Command Prompt.
Create a file Called YOURSYSTEM-VER-cofig.bat. Where YOURSYSTEM is the name of the system you are using and VER is the version of that specific system like python-2.6-config.bat.
Now put some codes in the file. Like:
Then create a new shortcut Right click on empty space or File -> New -> Shortcut.
Then type %COMPSPEC% /K "C:pathtoyourfile" in it
Then Rename the shortcut to a proper name.
Then click on Finish. Now Right click on the shortcut.
Select shortcut properties.
We can set the Fonts of the Command prompt.
We can set the color of the command prompt. like BACKGROUND, FOREGROUND.
We can even set the buffer and the screen layout of the shell window.
Example.
Now you are ready to enjoy this very good feature.
I recommend you to keep all these files in one folder say with name config-all and with attribute as hidden.
