8:40 am - 5:00 pm

Yesterday was Memorial Day, so today's Monday really. I looked a little at Catalyst, and I finished that C++ tutorial, and I looked a little at another C++ resource. I'm installing Open Office (or emerging it, actually), and that's still going.

Chinonye has been learning C++. Nick has been looking at drivers for the Keyspan USB->Serial thing, and some graphics stuff, and maybe other stuff.

When Nate came in, he helped Chinonye and Andy get started on the next step of porting/rewriting the app. Nate had been going to tell me to install Catalyst and play around with it, but decided that installing it would be pretty difficult. Instead, he showed me how to log in to the server and set up my own app using Catalyst. I'll work through the tutorials to learn the software, and then I can start looking at his online app. He says once I understand it, I can rewrite it because it's not the best implementation.

So here's where I am:

• Catalyst - working on users/greet in tutorial -- still getting an error about not finding greet.tt
  • I don't know how to install the plugins (if that would help)
• Open Office is still working on getting installed
• I need to remember to check on whether I can transfer files to/from people.tamu.edu from home
