Lost site.

Ever try to go to a web page while internet browsing and you get the message that it the page is no longer around. Frustrating to say the least. That page had just the information you were looking for. Then you want to chunk your computer and pledge to never again use the internet.



Relax as there may be a way to miraculously recover or access that page. All you need is the way back machine. What? No, not a another piece of equipment to purchase. It is a web site that has lots of historical information. So now how do we do it. You point your browser to www.archive.org, and then you will fill in the url (aka web site address) into the wayback machine box. I usually copy and paste the site I am looking for in the the wayback machine box to save typing and for accuracy. Not promising the page you are looking for will be there, but at least you now have a greater chance to get to the site you were looking for. Try it!

Thanx for the comment!

I prefer vim, but nano has more of a user interface. Cheatsheet: `dvtm` is one simple, easy-to-use terminal multiplexer. Commonly used Options:     -v         prints version information to standard output, then exits.         -m <mod>   set default modifier at runtime.         [cmd...]   Execute cmd after dvtm is started. KeyBoard Shortcuts:     Mod    Each keybinding begins with Mod which defaults to ^...
