The biggest problem is likely complex variables in the variable table (nested arrays which become serialized). Here is a solution for changing only part of a complex variable: http://groups.drupal.org/node/52588#comment-144213 (if this doesn't work or is awkward, i have a similar solution that i can dig up, but i believe mine is less robust).

I think drupal_array_merge_deep() may be the function we want to use in these cases.

Since they asked in the latest survey, i said...

Here's an important thing we need to know: when do we get spam because Mollom's limits for the free service were reached, and when is it because Mollom isn't recognizing it?

and would most want:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync

You can set authoring information display per content type, which takes the user picture with it, but this should be more configurable.

May tie in as far as code needed with something i apparently want so much i've posted it twice:

Show authors of all revisions on an article of content

Node Authors module: give multiple people edit rights to specific content based on userreference field

Solution

This should be the only time i do this on data, but the solution to this is in the Definitive Guide to Drupal 7– buy it! It's in the Other 90% chapter.

Background

Adding next & previous links for node types within taxonomy terms (e.g. Image Galleries)
http://drupal.org/node/45050

In a module OR a theme:

<?php
/**
  * Use the HTML5 placeholder attribute to add help text to the search box.
  */
function PROJECTNAME_form_search_block_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state) {
  $form['search_block_form']['#attributes']['placeholder'] = t('enter search terms');
}
?>

Very, very cool (even if they dis Wikipedia).

Stefan told me not to recommend scp -r ~/code/example username@host.example.com:/var/www/.

what is the s/find/replace syntax called?

Stefan:

that's called search and replace with regular expressions

ed is the line editor used by vi [which includes this]
sed is just a stream version of ed

s is the substitution command.
