That is a bit far out of the way for me, I think there are some KLUG people in Ashford/Folkstone, a pub meeting in one of those places might be more accessible/comfortable.<div><br></div><div>If you just want to try it then download a CD from the Ubuntu website: <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/">http://www.ubuntu.com/</a></div>

Hello everyone, i have been wanting to come to Klug meetings but have been unable due to a health issue. I would like to get away from Microsoft Windows and use only Linux and i want to interact with the web using the Linux shell. Don't ask me why, it just seems more efficient and TBH, after 20 years of supporting and using Windows i have just about had enough of it. So, is there anyone who knows Bash/Curl and lives near me in Lympne, near Hythe. I could meet someone at the Stop 24 M20 services on Junction 11, or somewhere nearby.<br>
<br>I guess i just need to see it working because i have only seen it on youtube videos and there are not that many videos about on Bash/Curl. My goal is to write scipts to manage my website and it will help me learn more about the web.<br>
<br>Anyway, i am available most days so look forward to hearing from anyone.<br>My email is <a href="mailto:intrench@gmail.com" target="_blank">intrench@gmail.com</a><br><br>cheers<br>Stephen<br>01303-265318<br><div style="padding:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-top:0px;overflow:hidden;word-wrap:break-word;color:black;font-size:10px;text-align:left;line-height:130%">
