The occasional scrivener

serendipity

Googling around for an emacs implementation of the Blogger API, I stumbled over color-mode.el by Don Knuth, and pmwiki.el by my old university friend Christian Ridderstr�m.

Knuth violates the emacs interface guidelines, but I guess he can get away with it. On the other hand, a celebrity deathmatch between RMS and Knuth would be something I would see on Pay per view...

The world is a small place, at least if you like emacs.

things to do in stockholm before you're dead

dwlt will be in Uppsala/Stockholm this weekend. Here is a short list of suggestions of things to do.

• Uppsala: visit the cathedral (Domkyrkan). The town itself is a very nice place, Sweden's Oxford.

• Stockholm: the Vasa Museum is well worth a visit.

• The museum is on Djurg�rden, a park to the east of the centre of town. Waldermarsudde is an art gallery at the other end, with a very nice walk in between. Fans of Edvard Munch and Nietzsche will enjoy Thielska Galleriet in the same general area.

• Visit the Stockholm Archipelago with a trip on the Vaxholm boats. Many different destinations for different timescales.

• Stockholm Old Town, Gamla stan, in the middle of the city. The Royal Palace is here. South of the Old Town is S�der, literally South, the more Bohemian of Stockholms neighborhoods. Lots of bars, galleries, parks...

• Eat traditional, if expensive Swedish food at KB or even more expensive seafood at Wedholms Fisk.
