What’s still left is that for whatever reason, WP doesn’t make the pingback URL relative to the site_url we did set with the trick in the post, so we have to change that little line to in wp-includes/general-template.php to the following.

case 'pingback_url':
$output = /*get_option('siteurl') */ site_url().'/xmlrpc.php';
break;

Here's one dirty way to workaround this:

set ylabel "\\begin{sideways}YAXIS [$ms$]\\end{sideways}"

But unfortunately my script names an axis like 

set xlabel "Temperatur an $R_1$ [$^{\degree}C$]"

You'll notice that degree is displayed as a string and not executed to produce "°" as intended.

You have to escape the backslash so it will not be processed by gnuplot but rather by latex, success :)

set xlabel "Temperatur an $R_1$ [$^{\\degree}C$]";

A second failure I made writing log(1/3), while gnuplot, like C does, implicitly uses integer operations for an expression without a fp value, this leads to a silent error. (gnuplot skips dat file with no valid points)

For the protocol:

f(r) = (((log(1.0/3.0)*r*(47e-6))*-1)*1000)

is the right way to do it

awk -F"," '{printf("%s,%s,%s %s,", $1,$2,$1,$2); for(i=4;i<36;i++) printf("%s,",$i); printf("\n")}' in.csv > out.csv

import the new csv into TB. You can also shorten this way via modding my one-liner and directly transforming evolution's output (it just makes double qoutes around the values) and import it then.

Besides all cool features which can be discovered by clicking around in the UI, kmplot learnt me to split a parameterized function like x³-2tx² in two functions which describe the x-axis and y-axis seperately and controlling the values of t with a slider.

First, you have to get used to the fact that we call out functions f_x and f_y now, and not f as usual actually meaning f_y. That's because you just require f_x (the function generating x-values) to be e.g. f_x(x) = x (linear slope @1).

The function f(x)= x³-2tx² splits up in f_x(x) = x and f_y(t,k)=t³-2kt² while k is the parameter controlled by the slider (check "slider" and choose one from the list).

While this makes sense for being able to modify f_x later It's also possible to choose a regular cartesian plot.

The final solution was the option in Vbox to turn on the USB 2.0 EHCI controller which needs the extension pack installed. On Archlinux you get it in the AUR, but you have to register it in the vbox prefs since the install script doesn’t handle this.
Instead, you can dl the extension a second time from the site, open in w/ vbox. It will register the previously installed one and give you an error because of conflicting files which is ok. After this, you can enable the EHCI controller and restoring/syncing will work fine :)

While the CR does not clear the contents of the line, you have to do that yourself:

  echo -ne "\033[2K\r"`echo $i | awk '{$1=""; print $0}'`

I use that line to display a string in a loop as described above. The \033 is nothing else than the escaped octal notation of \e which is ESC.

Users with their endpoint outside of the US have the common problems using pandora with tunnels and so on.

If you have a ssh connection to somewhere in a allowed country and being allowed to create port forwardings, this is for you:

Since pithos doesn't allow socks proxys yet you can do an admittedly bad, but working workaround:

get the pandora hosts:

host pandora.com

pandora.com has address 208.85.40.20
pandora.com has address 208.85.40.50
pandora.com has address 208.85.40.80

setup your ssh connection:

ssh user@server -L 8000:208.85.40.50:80

This will tunnel all traffic from localhost:8000 via your server to one pandora server on port 80, you can use another ipaddr if you want.

Now you have to enter http://localhost:8000 in the proxy field of pithos.

That's it :)
