There's going to be so many distros in six months, this will be great.

Everyone in Drupal needs to communicate much more about

Creating a Subtheme in Drupal 7

Bear with us, and Drupal 7. There are some non-intuitive steps in the subtheming, but the power, simplicity of modifying, and relative ease of upgrading is worth it.

Installing Drush on Dreamhost

Dreamhost didn't allow creating a symlink from /usr/local/bin to drush

echo $PATH

did not provide any parts of the path that it looked like sudo-less users would have access to.

Fortunately, the below instructions worked well:

Agaric wants an emacs orgmode-style input format for Drupal

There is apparently no such thing yet and this may be silly, but the idea is to have an input filter that would make a copy-paste of an emacs org-mode document look good-- perhaps even with collapsible sub-sections using JQuery.

Edit Term Love

(This arrived in the Agaric inbox this morning.)

Hello,

I wanted to send a love letter to the Edit term module but found your contact information instead. Can you forward this to Edit term?

Dear Edit term,

You never let me down. True to your project page description, you make editing terms easy and effortless. I'm so happy with our relationship -- you don't even have any baggage by creating unecessary database tables. You are one of the most useful modules to grace my Drupal installations. Edit term, I love you!
