Sami Samhuri b34ddbb600 fix code blocks on narrow screens, change post extensions 
- Code blocks can't be in tables or they extend past the body width.
  Workaround by using floated line numbers instead.

- Fix typocode CSS

- Change post extension from .html.md to .md. This makes URLs without
  extensions work with harp server again. This change works now that
  article titles never contain periods.

Raw Blame History

I was using Amarok's global keyboard shortcuts to control the volume of my music via the keyboard but I wanted to control the system volume as well. A quick script later and now I can control both, and thanks to libnotify I get some feedback on what happened. It's not as pretty as OS X's volume control or Growl but it'll certainly do.

↓ Download volume.rb

I save this as ~/bin/volume and call it thusly: volume + and volume -. I bind Alt-+ and Alt—to those in my fluxbox config. If you don't have a preferred key binding program I recommend trying xbindkeys. apt-get install, emerge, paludis -i, or rpm -i as needed.
