过程简单:
- 启动alpine,输入msla。在nickname处随便写个你要用的名称,就写gmail好了。Server处填写:imap.gmail.com/ssl/user=id@gmail.com/novalidate-cert。
- 继续在alpine中操作,输入msc。SMTP server输入:smtp.gmail.com/submit/user=id@gmail.com/novalidate-cert
- 使用whereis命令,找到Display Character Set和Posting Character Set,都设为UTF-8。
- 如果不想把邮件保存在本地,则需要输入msl,然后删除那个local的文件夹设置。

This seems a common DC, but dpreview tells that this one has a wider dynamic range than normal DCs, “(i)t helps to suppress white-out and expands dynamic range by up to 1EV compared to previous models.” And they also pointed out that the technology Ricoh uses “is in contrast to many existing dynamic range expansion technologies that limit the available ISO range (and can result in increased noise), or reduce the camera’s performance when engaged.” And they further note that “(f)or more extreme lighting situations, there is also a built-in high-dynamic range mode. This shoots two, differently exposed, images consecutively and combines them to enable to capture of a greater dynamic range than would be possible in a single exposure.”
Finally, Ricoh “claims the CX1 will be able to capture and convey dynamic range of up to 12EV. However, Rioch stresses that its feature isn’t trying to produce the fashionable, heavily-processed ‘HDR-look.’ ‘it aims to portray the scene in as natural a way as possible.’”
This sounds very interesting, I look forward to seeing the samples made buy CX1.

3Three weeks ago, my iBook G4 was stolen in the lab while I was away for a seminar. Life sucks. Just a few photos for the memory of my first mac.

在启动 iTunes 时按下 “alt/option” 键可以创建或开启多个 library,就如 iPhoto Buddy 一样。
在 iTunes 内可以选择备份到指定位置。

Someone happily sent his battery to Apple China for a new one. However things ended up that he received another defective one whose serial number also is among the serial numbers listed on Apple’s Battery Exchange Program page. Now, he just filled the form again and hoping to receive a good one.
Read the poor guy’s story in Chinese.

Mew is a MIME mail reader of Emacs. It can handle multi mailboxes and collabrates with other programs well. This is my configuration of mew.
NOTE:
- I used Stunnel for SSL connection. You must modify the file location of Stunnel. If you use Mac OS X, you can install it using DarwinPorts as I do.
- If you want to use BBDB with Mew, take a look at Chris Beggy’s setup (it’s old, but it works).
- My resources for the setup are here (Chinese), here, and here.
UPDATE #1:
a great Mew configuration file to take a look
UPDATE #2: I created a .mew.el files list.

Finally after digging around for a while I found the correct way to make this. The web search list of Quicksilver’s web search plugin also contains a coralize link, and which reads like “http://redirect.nyud.net:8080/?url=”. So a few test, I got one bookmarklet finally works in my Safari.app. If you want to try it, just drag the link below to your bookmarks bar.
Coralize

To my disappointment, the Coralize bookmarklet didn’t work in my safari.app. As I know nothing about Javascript so I must figure out an alternative way. By reading the coral.src file for the coralize search plugin, I found AcidSearch for Safari.app also can make this. The steps are simple:
- Install AcidSearch
- Then click the magnifying glass in the search bar of Safari.app and choose “AcidSearch Preferences”
- Choose the “Search Channels” tab, and click “New Channel” button
- Name the new channel as anything you like by editing the Title, I chose “Coralize”; and change the “Prefix URL” to “http://redirect.nyud.net:8080/”, as shown in figure below.

Now you can enjoy coralizing links. And you can make the “Coralize ” channel as the default channel of AcidSearch by choosing it in the “Options” tab of AcidSearch Preferences”.
Enjoy.
Below is a pic showing the “Coralize” channel in usage.

UPDATE: You can download my AcidSearch channel file to ease your setup.
