GitHub Is Hosting My Code

The repo for all this work is now on GitHub.

Like all my GitHub repos, it's public, so anyone can get it with either
git clone git://github.com/jsh/electricsheep.git
or
git clone https://github.com/jsh/electricsheep.git
Of course, first they have to have git, which they can get with
sudo apt-get install git
(The package used to be called git-core, but now it's just git.) There's an analogous yum install in Fedora, but I'm working on Ubuntu, so I can testify to that.

The first contents I put in is a directory of files for customizing my environment. I have my vimrc, a suite of bash customizations (I'm a heavy bash user), and a script for keeping the host Ubuntu distro up-to-date, which I usually run from cron.

Early on in the course, my laptop died. Setting up my environment anew on the replacement was easier because I had easy access to these files. Good thing I put them somewhere easy to find, so I can do the same on any box. In this case, I'm running on a little, Dell Inspiron Mini 1012.
