Swap file "..."already exists! - so diff it
this wiki
created 2007 · complexity intermediate · author Richard Bronosky · version 7.0
When opening a file (in this example geocode.py) in Vim, I regularly encounter messages like:
E325: ATTENTION Found a swap file by the name ".geocode.py.swp" owned by: rbronosky dated: Fri Sep 7 17:17:37 2007 file name: geocode.py modified: YES user name: rbronosky process ID: 6490 While opening file "geocode.py" dated: Fri Sep 7 17:17:04 2007 (1) Another program may be editing the same file. If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two different instances of the same file when making changes. Quit, or continue with caution. (2) An edit session for this file crashed. If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r geocode.py" to recover the changes (see ":help recovery"). If you did this already, delete the swap file ".geocode.py.swp" to avoid this message. Swap file ".geocode.py.swp" already exists! [O]pen Read-Only, (E)dit anyway, (R)ecover, (D)elete it, (Q)uit, (A)bort:
This is the result of not properly closing an open buffer, usually because of a lost ssh connection. If there were unsaved changes, they can be recovered from this swap file. In order to know if this swap file is of value to me, I need to do some investigating. I have developed a system for resolving this quickly with as few keystrokes as possible.
- r # at the prompt hit "r" to recover the swap file
- :sav! /tmp/%
- :vs
- :diffthis
- CTRL-W_l
- :bp
- e # at the prompt hit "e" to edit anyway
- :diffthis
The result will be a vertically split screen with the swap file on the left and the regular file on the right. You will be in diff mode and if the files are identical they will both be folded into one line.
Sure, this would make a good script, but I am a big fan of "learn to do it by hand". That way you can do it on any system, and you can use each of the little steps to aid your daily vimming.
If you want to know more about the commands used, use
:help, for example:
See also
- :help :DiffOrig,
- Christian Brabandt's recovery plugin has a very good solution for recovering and diffing swapfile.
Losing swapfiles
After recovering a file from a swapfile and deleting the swapfile you will usually use swapname .swo (or similar). If something goes wrong again, vim will not detect the .swo swapfile on startup. It is useful to restart vim, or do the following trick:
:set swf!|set swf!
In this way vim will delete the .swo swapfile and make a new one ending with.swp (you can check this with :swapname command). Now you are completely safe.
Automatically deleting redundant swapfiles with a shellscript
This is a useful trick, but it would be better if it was automated. Also in the situation where the recovered swapfile turns out to be identical to the real file, there is no need for the diffing. I use a shellscript to help deal with swapfiles, before starting Vim:
# Expects variables realfile, swapfile, recoveryfile. vim -r "$swapfile" -c ":wq! $recoveryfile" && rm "$swapfile" if cmp "$recoveryfile" "$realfile" then rm "$recoveryfile" else vimdiff "$recoveryfile" "$realfile" fi
Quick comparison with a little plugin
Instead of steps 2-8 above, I do a quick comparison with:
And after that I do
:e<Enter>d to delete the swapfile, or
:w! to overwrite the file.
For this shortcut you will need a system with
diff, and this script in
command! DiffAgainstFileOnDisk call DiffAgainstFileOnDisk() function! DiffAgainstFileOnDisk() :w! /tmp/working_copy exec "!diff /tmp/working_copy %" endfunction
Feature Request
For goodness sake, if the swapfile is identical to the file on disk, then Vim should just automatically drop it for us, and not give us a prompt at all...

The Big Beige Box Co. is presumably a computer manufacturer or seller that is advertised on billboards in Grand Theft Auto III. It's only sign says The Big Beige Box Co. and then has some unreadable text below that seems to read 'MORE THAN A 8C WHICH BLAMS'. But it most likely says something else, but in too low resolution. There are, however, no actual Big Beige Box Co. stores located in Liberty City.

Lostprophets are a rock band from Pontypridd, Wales, which was formed in 1997 by vocalist Ian Watkins, bassist Mike Lewis, drummer Mike Chiplin and guitarist Lee Gaze. The band came together from the ashes of a hard core punk band, Public Disturbance. The band got their start playing local venues across Wales, England, Scotland and Ireland. The band recorded a number of demos which caught the attention of the indie record label, Visible Noise, who signed the band in 1999. Lostprophets debut album "Thefakesoundofprogress" arrived in 2000. The band hit the road and began to set their sights on breaking into the American markets.

One thing that shall never be clarified is how much of the contention concerning eight cabinet ministers the debate around whom resulted in an imminent cabinet reshuffle – or dissolving the cabinet altogether – is fact, and what is fiction.
A singular example is how much Energy and Minerals minister William Ngeleja has been criticised by all the powers inside the powerful energy monopoly of Tanesco for 'delay' in securing the vital guarantee from the government for a Sh408bn loan from commercial banks. Would it not have been better to blame the governor of the central bank, or the Minister for Finance?
There are even some worries that people may quarrel in private life and then spill their venom on the floor of Parliament ostensibly defending public interests, for instance when Kahama MP James Lembeli corrected Minister Ezekiel Maige on a house he purchased.
The minister said it was around 400,000 dollars and the MP promptly corrected that it was 700,000 dollars, which may be right, but its factual validity does not resolve the basic issue of where he personally comes in into all that. Institutions exist to probe into individuals' lives when the need arises, not one-man tribunals and ethical committees.
A columnist in this issue says that one basic reason for periodic parliamentary uproars that have tarnished legislative life in the fourth phase administration is the cost of running for election, that it is too high. Thus each elected MP seeks to recover the cost and obtain some tangible benefit as well, in which case becoming a member of the cabinet helps quite a lot in achieving as much.
What he did not say is that not so long ago the whole of Parliament was agreed about raising their sitting allowances from Sh70,000 to at least Sh200,000 per day which the premier approved and the president hesitated, and while he was still appealing for 'wisdom' the doctors came in with the first strike, killing the deal.
MPs are furious their own plans are being derailed while ministers have it all easy, so they go forking everywhere for the usually possible misdemeanours, from the likes of David Jairo to Richmond, and parliamentary life is engulfed in dispute.
This leads to a different requirement, that a method of evaluating the performance of a cabinet minister (and indeed other top public officials) be instituted so as to end calumny and witch hunting as a method of government, or as pleasure seeking by MPs.
There are countries which already have such a system, one being arch-reformist Rwanda, where at the end of the year the Auditor General and the President sit with each minister, or any contested minister and show the balance sheet, whereupon he or she is asked if, on the basis of that performance, he or she is still needed in government. It isn't hard to see what to respond.
Another country with such an assessment system is Kenya where a minister is required to have 70 percent performance mark to retain his position in Cabinet.
It is unclear how such controls may include a test of opinion among clients, organisations which the minister oversees, or should strictly be based on financial returns.
All the same, other lines of information regarding a particular sector would be helpful in evaluating the minister's action, as negative perception by society has a reason, as it is partly caused by the targeted individual by either failure or omission. Having provided the pretext, the ill will of others finishes the rest, and we hear what the minister paid for to obtain a house, without the semblance of an inquiry having been performed; suddenly we want him out.
So in order to get out of this kind of culture, a few things might have to be introduced, that questions concerning the private activities of ministers as individuals need to be directed to the Ethics Committee so as to be investigated, not exploded in Parliament as a one stop shop.
Secondly, objective methods be set up to evaluate the work of the cabinet especially in relation to supervision of projects in sectors they oversee, and distinctions be made as to failures of direction and supervision, from objective scarcity of resources.
If such distinctions will not be put up, the habit where the failure of the government to do this and that isn't explained from resources but a minister will remain, and therefore no cabinet will be stable. For example Kahama has few or no tarmac roads, so let's see what the minister bought lately, or misnomers of the sort, which don't help political stability.

Delusional Nutjobs Convict Obama in a Peoples Court, DEMAND He Resign on Nov. 19th!
Bob Cull
September 26, 2013
Americans Against The Tea Party
Larry Klayman likes to call himself a political activist and patriot. Its highly doubtful that anyone sane would agree with his assessment, however. Klayman is the founder and former chairman of Judicial Watch and is best known for his propensity for bringing and losing frivolous lawsuits against government officials. He filed 18 suits against the Clinton administration and brought another unsuccessful suit against Dick Cheney over his energy task force.
This past Monday, Klayman announced that he had convened a citizens grand jury in Ocala, Florida which had indicted the President for, defrauding the American people and Floridians by proffering them with a fake birth certificate. He went on to say that he had also convened a peoples court and convicted him in absentia and was now demanding that the President surrender himself to be imprisoned for his crimes.
Klayman admits that the President made a birth certificate available to the public showing that he was indeed born in Hawaii to an American mother, but says that, the problem is however, according to forensic experts, the birth certificate is altered and forged. He contends that in order to be a natural born citizen one must not only be born in the country, but that both parents must also be citizens, something that one would expect a lawyer to know is untrue.
His manifesto goes on to say, Of course, Obama will not willingly obey the law of the people. He will attempt to hide behind the iron fences of the White House, perhaps cowering under his desk for fear that the people will rise up and demand his ouster.
To that end he has called on the people of the United States to march on Washington D.C. on November 19 to demand that he surrender himself to them saying, I call upon millions of Americans who have been appalled and disgusted by Obamas criminality his Muslim, socialist, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-white, pro-illegal immigrant, pro-radical gay and lesbian agenda among other outrages, to descend on Washington, D.C., en masse, and demand that he leave town and resign from office if he does not want to face prison time.
While it is disturbing that there is someone out there who is this crazed, what is even more disturbing is the fact that this man is not alone he has followers who are just as convinced of his delusions as he is. Fortunately, although they are very noisy and vocal and they think that they are great in number, these people are actually a confused and very small minority.

LOL! Go ahead and start your revolution Klayman. The rest of us will get some popcorn, and watch as you, and your whacko traitors, get wiped out in a hail of bullets and bombs.:boom:

WASHINGTON — House Speaker John Boehner said Wednesday that "serious differences" remain between him and President Barack Obama in negotiations on averting spending cuts and tax increases that economists say could send the U.S. economy over a "fiscal cliff."
Boehner's comments came as top Democrats pushed back on GOP demands for tough steps such as raising the Medicare eligibility age and curbing the cost-of-living adjustment for Social Security.
Boehner and Obama spoke on the phone Tuesday, a day after Obama offered to reduce his initial demand for $1.6 trillion in higher tax revenue over a decade to $1.4 trillion. But Obama continues to insist that much of the revenue come from raising top tax rates on the wealthy.
Boehner countered later Tuesday with another offer. A Democratic official said Boehner's counteroffer included permanent extension of Bush-era tax rates for all taxpayers, including the top 2 percent of earners, the same as his earlier proposal. Boehner offers $800 billion in new revenues through a tax-reform measure next year.
Leading lawmakers expressed pessimism that a deal was close, despite increasing angst about a Dec. 31 deadline.
"I think it's getting worse, not better," said House GOP Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.

Discharge Instructions: Caring for Your Child's Splint
Your child will be coming home with a splint (sometimes referred to as a removable cast). A splint helps your child's body heal by holding his or her injured bones or joints in place. A damaged splint can prevent the injury from healing well. Take good care of your child's splint. If the splint becomes damaged or loses its shape, it may need to be replaced. Here's what you need to know about home care.
Your child has a broken ___________________ bone. This bone is located in the __________________.
Splint Care
Make sure your child wears his or her splint according to the health care provider's instructions.
Clean the splint with soap and lukewarm water, and scrub it with a small brush.
Use alcohol wipes to rub the inside of the splint to reduce odor and bacteria.
Wash the Velcro straps and inner cloth sleeve (stockinet) with soapy water and air-dry.
Keep the splint away from open flames.
Don't expose the splint to heat, space heaters, or prolonged sunlight. Excessive heat will cause the splint to change shape.
Don't cut or tear the splint.
Exercise and Elevation
Encourage your child to exercise all the adjacent joints not immobilized by the splint. If your child has a long leg splint, help him or her to exercise the hip joint and toes. If your child has an arm splint, encourage exercise of the shoulder, elbow, thumb, and fingers.
Elevate the part of the body that is in the splint. This helps reduce swelling.
When to Call Your Child's Doctor
Call the health care provider right away if your child has any of the following:
Tingling or numbness in the affected area
Severe pain that cannot be relieved with medication
Cast that feels too tight or too loose
Swelling, coldness, or blue-gray color in his or her fingers or toes
Cast that is damaged, cracked, or has rough edges that hurt
Pressure sores or red marks that don't go away within 1 hour of removing the splint
Make a follow-up appointment as directed by our staff.

<translate> As someone who has not used Joomla! before, you need to know how to get started. Maybe you have a friend or a neighbour who uses Joomla! and you want a Joomla! web site of your very own. Maybe you have a small business or a club or a community that needs a web presence, and you want to use Joomla! for that purpose. Maybe you are a seasoned Information Technology professional, but you have never used Joomla! before. If so, you are just starting a very enjoyable journey and we warmly welcome you to Joomla! </translate>
What is Joomla?
Joomla! is a CMS(Content Management System) that lets you...
- ...make and update web pages easily.
As a simplified explanation, think of a Joomla! website dynamically bringing together three elements.
- Your content, which is stored in a database and called articles.
- Modules, additional pieces of special content which is also stored in a database.
- Your template, which controls the design and presentation(fonts, colors and layout) of your content and modules.
Joomla! is the software that brings together the content and modules using the template to produce webpages dynamically. No more HTML pages to store, update, link together and then upload to your server.
Absolute Beginners Guide to Joomla!
<translate> Although you could spend a lifetime learning Joomla!, if you master the basics you will be able to make a very attractive and useful basic website in a very short time with no special technical skills. </translate> <translate> Do you want to get started with Joomla!, but you have no idea where to begin? If so, you have come to the right place. </translate>
Installing Joomla!</translate>
{{:Portal:Beginners/Installing Joomla/<translate>en</translate>}}
{{:Portal:Beginners/Learn to use Joomla/<translate> en</translate>}}
<translate>===Getting Support===
- For support with installation, you can ask questions in the Joomla! installation forum.
- For support as you are learning Joomla! you can ask questions in the NewJoomla! forums. Use the New to Joomla! 2.5 Forum or the New to Joomla! 3.x Forum.
Before You Start Creating Your Joomla! Site
<translate> Before you jump into making your own articles, categories, tags, web links, contacts, banners, and news feeds, you may want to review Planning Your Web site. There are many aspects of creating a web site to consider. For example, deciding if you want to enable Search Engine Friendly URLs and how enabling or disabling Search Engine Friendly URLs later will destroy the rankings your pages acquired with search engines such as Google, MSN and Yahoo. </translate>
<translate> Perhaps you already have a website. Then you should read "Converting an existing website to a Joomla! website" and learn more about converting your static website.</translate>
<translate> One of the first tasks you may want to do is to modify one of the templates that comes with Joomla! so that it displays your site name and logo.</translate>
- How to change the image (s) in your template </translate>
- How to modify a Joomla! template.</translate>
<translate> Finally, you may want to install one or more of the thousands of extensions to Joomla!. Most Joomla! extensions are listed in the official Joomla! Extensions Directory (JED). Once you've found an extension to install, you'll have to follow the procedure for installing a Joomla! Extension. </translate>
<translate> Please remember that all extensions are developed by independent developers. If you need help with a specific extension the best source will be that developer. </translate>
<translate>===Getting Help in the Joomla! Forums=== </translate> {{Portal:Beginners/Getting Help/<translate> en</translate>}}
<translate> Here are some quick links to specific Joomla! forums commonly used. General/New to Joomla! 3.x Questions, Joomla! 3.x Template Questions, Joomla! 3.x Extension Questions, General/New to Joomla! 2.5 Questions, Joomla! 2.5 Template Questions, and Joomla! 2.5 Extension Questions </translate>
Keep Your Joomla! Site Secure
<translate> Security is always a big concern on the web. Make sure you are using best security practices. The basic techniques on the Security Check List will get your site off to a good start in terms of security. Here is a list of more information you should read. </translate> {{:Security/Guide/<translate> en</translate>}}
Understand How Joomla! Works
<translate> You might want to learn how Joomla! is built and how its features work together. </translate>
<translate> In short, Joomla! is composed of a Framework and extensions. There are several types of extensions, each capable of performing specific tasks. Some extensions are developed as part of the Joomla! project and come with your installation. If you want to add features to your site, you can install more extensions. </translate>
<translate> You can compare this to a computer operating system, like Microsoft Windows or Linux. You don't directly use the operating system (Joomla!); you use applications (extensions) to carry out tasks. Some applications (extensions) are immediately available on your system, but can install and remove additional applications (extensions) at any time. </translate>
<translate> The Joomla! Core Features Guide scribd, written by James Ramsay describes the features (mostly the extensions) available in each download of Joomla!.</translate>

John[1] "Johnny Spaz" Barbosa (1983-2008) was a 25-year old Enforcer to the Pegorino Family, led by James Pegorino. He was the youngest Enforcer to the gang and his nickname is 'Johnny Spaz'. Barbosa had resided in Alderney City, Alderney, Liberty City. Johnny Barbosa is close friends with Luca Silvestri, working alongside him and Joe DiLeo for Ray Boccino.
Barbosa, along with the other members of his sub-crew (Luca Silvestri and Joseph DiLeo), were introduced in the GTA IV mission Taking in the Trash in which Ray sends Niko to assist them in picking up the Diamonds that Johnny Klebitz left in two Algonquin trashbags in the TLAD mission Diamonds in the Rough (which took place at the same time as the TBOGT mission Frosting on the Cake). The foursome were ambushed by unidentified attackers (potentially Gay Tony associates), but escaped. After escaping, Barbosa along with the other members betrayed Boccino and Bellic by taking the money for themselves; but Niko killed them and reclaimed the Diamonds for Ray.

- Abstract
- The critical path of a composite Web application operating in volatile environments, i.e., the execution path in the service composition with the maximum execution time, should be prioritised in cost-effective monitoring as it determines the response time of the Web application. In volatile operating environments, the critical path of a Web application is probabilistic. As such, it is important to estimate the criticalities of the execution paths, i.e., the probabilities that they are critical, to decide which parts of the system to monitor. We propose a novel approach to the identification of Probabilistic Critical Path for Service-based Web Applications (PCP-SWA), which calculates the criticalities of different execution paths in the context of service composition. We evaluate PCP-SWA experimentally using an example Web application. Compared to random monitoring, PCP-SWA based monitoring is 55.67% more cost-effective on average.

WOW. That is the only word to begin to describe this fiesta. Sativva and her friend Rachel came by looking for a party. They got one alright. After flashing the passwords, they came on in to get down with the get down. Two barely legal babes taking off their tops and showing off their great round boobs was great. They turned out to be quite close, so them making out for us was no problem. It went as far as mutual nipple sucking and pussy eating. Hell, they even traded ass licks. When Ben showed up, the party was ready to burn the roof off. He unleashed his big dick onto these two willing babes with a fury. They took it on. Great blowjob action and crazy sex. These girls got straight FUCKED. Check it out.
