Network World ☛ Getting started with scripting on Linux: Testing variables [Ed: This is about bash, which is usually GNU, and nothing to do with Linux. Linux does not even have a command line, albeit some can run on top of Linux; bash and Linux are not the same thing. Some people insist on just calling everything that isn't Windows "Linux", stubbornly and repeatedly insisting that no matter what the facts say, anything else would be "confusing". It's actually confusing people when you tell them a totally false history with fictional topology. People are not as dumb as these revisionists want us to assume.]
This post follows up on Part 1 by examining the many ways that you can test the value of variables - e.g., whether they equal particular strings like "yes" or "no", if they have a numeric value, if they are null (empty), or if they are larger or smaller than some value or variable.

PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ GIMP Tutorial: Using The Curves Tool
While looking at some of my photos, I see some that aren't quite as vibrant as I remember them when I took them. One of the tools that GIMP has is the Curves tool, which adjusts the color in a photo. It's easy to use and fun to play with.
Load a copy of your photo into GIMP. As we have learned over the years, if you screw up the only copy of your photo, then you have lost it. Working on a copy preserves the original. Here is the photo I'll work on first. It's a pretty little grove of trees I saw on a four wheeler ride in Colorado about seven years ago. While the colors are nice, they don't really "pop" and they aren't nearly as bright as I remember.

PCLinuxOS Magazine ☛ How To Create The Full Monty (FM) Desktop
Before I get started on this tutoriaI, I want to say a Happy Belated Birthday to PCLinuxOS, as she turned 20 this year. Next year she'll be able to gamble, and go get a margarita. I also want to mention that the FM desktop is the original creation of our founder, Texstar. The last official release of the Full Monty iso was in 2014 on KDE 4. It was discontinued for aesthetic reasons.
A couple months ago, I was inspired to recreate it, after an article I read online. I recently created an ISO and it has had good reviews, but it does not adjust the way it should to screen size, aspect ratio or resolution changes.
So, in the meantime until those problems are fixed and while I am continuing to work on it, I wanted to share a how-to guide on creating the FM desktop so you can use it too, without downloading an ISO.
Now, without further hubbub, here is a very straightforward set of instructions on how to set up the FM desktop for yourself.
