To change the default color scheme to say koehler (making it look a bit like textmate), add the following to your .vimrc file
:colorscheme koehler
Save and restart your MacVim / gVim. And that should be it.
(You can easily access the .vimrc file by going to Edit>Startup settings from your menu)

Parsing CSV files with ruby FasterCSV : An example
Monday, October 13, 2008
Need to parse csv files in ruby, skipping the first row (usually some header)?. Use FasterCSV. (Yes, its faster). Install it
$ sudo gem install fastercsv
Here is one solution
#!/usr/bin/ruby -w
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘faster_csv’
#put everything in an array
array_of_arrays = FasterCSV.read(”some_file.csv”)
# remove headers
array_of_arrays.slice!(0)
array_of_arrays.each{|row|
puts row
}
Another solution is
#!/usr/bin/ruby -w
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘faster_csv’
# setting the headers option [...]
Mockito vs EasyMock - Mockito wins
Thursday, October 9, 2008
I would definitely recommend Mockito over EasyMock (and ofcourse, over JMock). I was initially hesitant of using Mockito on my project, but when I did, I found it a lot easier to use and with a lot less noise in test setup compared to EasyMock.

description=”Compile main source tree java files”>

Removing duplication from ant build files
Thursday, October 2, 2008
Once I started getting my ant build script to work for both my development and production environment, I started getting some (evil) duplication in it.
build.xml
<?xml version=”1.0″?>
<project name=”some-project” basedir=”.”>
<property name=”dev-deploy.path”
value=”./lib/apache-tomcat-6.0.18/webapps”>
<property name=”prod-deploy.path”
value=”/usr/share/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/webapps”>
<target name=”copy-dev-war”
depends=”build” description=”copy WAR to webapps directory”>
<copy todir=”${dev-deploy.path}” preservelastmodified=”true”>
<fileset dir=”.”>
<include name=”*.war”/>
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
<target name=”copy-prod-war”
depends=”build” description=” copy WAR to webapps directory “>
<copy todir=”${prod-deploy.path}” preservelastmodified=”true”>
<fileset dir=”.”>
<include name=”*.war”/>
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
</project>
As you can [...]
