  • Decompressing and installing stuff
    • Interesting problem with Flashbuilder. When I tried to point it to an old (FB4)  workspace, the package explorer dies and came up with a No Class Def error. On the forum (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2941203#2941203), I found a mention that there was a conflict with old versions of FB. I created a new workspace, and the package explorer comes up. And that seems to work.
    • tomcat-7.0.12
    • debug flash players
    • gvim
    • InputDirector
    • jdk-6u25-windows-x-64
    • cygwin setup and Cygwin
    • xampp-win32-1.7.4-VC6-installer
  • Installed Flashbuilder 4 and plugins. You now *have to* use the shortcut that is in the FB plugin directory. Accessing Eclipse though the standard icon will work in Java but not Flash
  • Installed R. Had to set a path variable to point to the R_HOMEbini386 directory.
  • Since we’re all using Subclipse these days, I only installed that – http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x/
  • Downloaded, compiled and ran RFlexServer and RFlexClient!
  • Figured out how to export/import firefox bookmarks. Selecting Bookmarks->Show all Bookmarks, brings up a dialog, with import/export options.
