Docker attach is supposed to give you a bash shell But I have found on some containers that it just hangs when you run it: docker attach 54b38600e152 But this command works for me (and apparently allows multiple shells to attach) docker exec -i -t 54b38600e152 bash...

Glabels-3 almost had me beta
Just had an issue in glabels when I pointed it at a CSV file one of the fields was missing. The cause was glabels intelligently determining the CSV encoding to be non-unicode (ISO-8859) and then dutifully skipping the display of a field with the ? beta character in...

SBS 2011 doesn't allow you to install Powershell v4 which has a one line Get-FileHash utility to generate an md5sum. So you need a few extra lines. I needed to transfer some PSTs which I had chunked down to 250MB 7z files. From SBS 2011 to Mac and wanted to check they...
