1. Ubuntu: Making a .deb package out of a python program (English)

by Horst Jens added 03/07
In this video i show how to take a small Python program (a little game) and transform it into a .deb-package for Ubuntu Linux. The process should be the same for all Debian-based Linux distros. This screencast was done on a German Ubuntu system, but voice and documentation in the Wiki are all in English. The video is about 15 minutes long. You can find all example codes and documents in the Wiki [...]

Showmedo is a peer-produced video-tutorials and screencasts site for free and open-source software (FOSS)- with the exception of some club videos, the large majority are free to watch and download.

Educating the Open-source Community With Showmedo

Although as important as the software it supports, education and documentation are relatively neglected in the Open-source world. Coders love to code, and explaining how best to use or improve the software tends to be deferred or even sidelined.

At Showmedo we believe the community can play a vital role here and also say thanks for the tools and software that make our lives easier. If you have a piece of software you love or a programming langugage you are enthusiastic about, why not make a screencast showing others how to use it? All the stuff you wish you'd been told, the tips, tricks, insights that would have saved you time and frustration.

Screencasting is easier than you think, and we're happy to help you. You can emailus for advice or just use some of the how-to screencasts on the site. This screencasting learning-pathis a good place to start.

Kudos and Thanks for Horst

Open Office Writer: making a shopping list with tabs

Thank you for the friendly and clear demo.

I am new to open office.

Currently I use MSOffice, MSWorks and Wordperfect lightning for various edit work.

I have documents sent to me in various formats. So, it is important that I can open and adjust each one.

I am hoping that OpenOffice will be an easier interface for me once I learn its capabilities.

OpenOffice Impress: greeting card, part 1 of 2 (Chinese)

I think this is fabulous. It is just what I need as I do have to learn how to do a presentation and there seems to be some good info here. Even though I don't speak Chinese, this is certainly understandable with the direct screen info and the video showing Lijia manipulating and marking the page to make a greeting card. Great - Thanks!

Ubuntu: Making a .deb package out of a python program (English)

Excellent tutorial, although abit too verbose and detailed for people experienced with Linux. I would expect most people interested in making packages would at least have experience with terminal commands! But that's just a minor point.
