Saving Electricity - Inspired by Blackle

For those who are inspired by Blackle and want to invert ( change ) the color of the entire system to black - what are you waiting for!!!

1. Goto Control Panel.
2. Select Display -> Click the Apperance Tab.
3. Choose High Contrast #1 or #2 ( Greeniee Foreground ) in the Color Scheme.
4. Apply and wait for the changes to happen.

Once this is done, you can access Google instead of Blackle.

Sometimes the browser may not use the system default color scheme, for that to happen:
1. Open Browser ( Firefox )
2. Tools menu -> Options
3. Content Tab -> Colors
4. Mark the Use System Color Option
5. Click Ok.

Trickles of Water in the high mountains, together form a mighty river - which joins the great Ocean.

Arrage Icons by CVS Status

I want Tortoise CVS to arrange icons based on CVS Status. I was not able
to do so. I check up the feature list need find them there. I also check
the features wanted listed, no luck even there. I thought I should add
code to tortoise for this feature. When I was studying some pages for
adding a column on the file explorer. It was here that I found that the
feature already exists.

All you got to do is
1.Click View->Details
2.Right Click on the column header, choose more.
3.Select amoung the CVS Status, CVS Revision, CVS Sticky Tags or CVS
File type
4.Click View->Arrange Icons by->CVS Status
5............There you go, it is ordered by CVS Status ( Modified,
Unmodifed, Unknown, Added, Conflict, Removed )
