Hi
I have some software contract work coming up. It will involve detailed
reviewing and testing of a small number of functions written in C. We're
in Poole but some can be done remotely. If anyone is interested please
contact me off-list.
Cheers

Hi,
Does anyone know how I can use tools available in Linux to convert a PDF file
to MS Word .doc or .docx format (or even to LibreOffice .odt)?
Closest I'm aware of is pdftotext (also pdf2text, pdf2txt etc). But of
course you'll lose the format

You can clone the disk yourself if you have a new drive e.g.:
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc
Or create an image on a larger disk e.g.:
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/mnt/newdisk/image
dd does a low level copy so it should copy the partition table and any

I'd like to run multiple commands in Bash:
patch -m but for audit purposes I'd like each command in the list to be echoed as

line.
I know that as an alternative I can put the commands in a script with

Can anyone get the Media Files upload tool to work?

Hi
Trying to get arm embedded cross compiler from
https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded running on a Debian 8 (Jessie)
amd64 machine.
Compiler is 32-bit:
$ file /usr/local/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_9-2015q2/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc
/usr/local/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_9-2015q2/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc: ELF
es, I saw that but it's a step removed from the base release and I need
to get the 32-bit libs installed anyway for other compilers which are
not available in 64-bit.
Cheers

Yes, but not if the target is 32-bit on a 64-bit system :)
Hmm, odd. Does here AFAICS.
