- | // SUMMARY: | ||
- | Previously named Hazelwood LUG (HZWLUG), then Newcomer LUG (NEWLUG). Now, Newcomer Linux User Group is designated as NEWLINUX. | ||
- | The NEWLINUX home page lists a number of topics to provide general directions from which we could start. | ||
- | Topics are usually determined by attendees. We usually cover way more than one topic. | ||
- | // | ||
- | * [[http://newlug.sluug.org |NEWLUG]] was how we named our Linux Users Group (LUG) for Linux Newcomers. | ||
- | * [[http://newlinux.org |NEWLINUX]] is name that we can frequently use for our Newcomer Linux Users Group. | ||
- | * 2022-08-01 Comments: Future use of library rooms will be reviewed monthly. | ||
- | * 2022-09-07 Comments: Already cancelled September room reservation, may go ahead and cancel next few months ahead. | ||
- | * 2022-10-03 Comments: Cancelled all room reservations for this year. Did not make new ones. | ||

- | |||
- | ====== Meeting Schedule ====== | ||
- | // SUMMARY: **This is where we discuss available and confirmed meeting topics.** // | ||
- | // GOAL: ** To map out meeting topics for as much as 3 months out.** // | ||
- | * ** No physical face-to-face meetings until further notice.** | ||
- | * ** When we again have physical meetings, we would like to continue video meetings in conjunction with any physical meetings.** | ||
- | * We try to track prospects to give presentations at our SLUUG General (SLUUG) meeting and LINUX (STLLINUX) meetings. | ||
- | * We try to segregate topic types as either **BASE, MAIN or LINUX,** with BASE and MAIN given at the General meeting (SLUUG) . | ||
- | * * *BASE* topics should be oriented toward simpler Personal Computing. Usually given as General meeting (SLUUG). Short is good. | ||
- | * *BASE* Something fundamental, introductory, instructive or simple. | ||
- | * * *MAIN* topics should be oriented more toward advanced or Professional Computing. Usually given at General meeting (SLUUG). | ||
- | * *MAIN* Something more advanced, detailed, important, profound, new, significant, timely or useful. | ||
- | * * *LINUX* topics often could be either at the General meeting or at the St. Louis Linux Users Group (STLLINUX) meetings. | ||
- | * We want to have alternative (secondary) topic on hand if primary speaker doesn't show. | ||
- | * Gary will continue to explore different computer manufacturers (ex: Cray) who might be able to do presentation "Where are they now?" | ||

+ | ====== Meeting Schedule ====== | ||
+ | // SUMMARY: **This is where we discuss available and confirmed meeting topics.** // | ||
+ | // GOAL: ** To map out meeting topics for as much as 3 months out.** // | ||
+ | * ** No physical face-to-face meetings until further notice.** | ||
+ | * ** When we again have physical meetings, we would like to continue video meetings in conjunction with any physical meetings.** | ||
+ | * We try to track prospects to give presentations at our SLUUG General (SLUUG) meeting and LINUX (STLLINUX) meetings. | ||
+ | * We try to segregate topic types as either **BASE, MAIN or LINUX,** with BASE and MAIN given at the General meeting (SLUUG) . | ||
+ | * * *BASE* topics should be oriented toward simpler Personal Computing. Usually given as General meeting (SLUUG). Short is good. | ||
+ | * *BASE* Something fundamental, introductory, instructive or simple. | ||
+ | * * *MAIN* topics should be oriented more toward advanced or Professional Computing. Usually given at General meeting (SLUUG). | ||
+ | * *MAIN* Something more advanced, detailed, important, profound, new, significant, timely or useful. | ||
+ | * * *LINUX* topics often could be either at the General meeting or at the St. Louis Linux Users Group (STLLINUX) meetings. | ||
+ | * We want to have alternative (secondary) topic on hand if primary speaker doesn't show. | ||
+ | * Gary will continue to explore different computer manufacturers (ex: Cray) who might be able to do presentation "Where are they now?" | ||

+ | * STATUS: **Done** | ||
+ | * WHAT: **Using Grep; Searching for patterns in files** | ||
+ | * BY: Robert Citek | ||
+ | * SYNOPSIS: TBD | ||
+ | * WRANGLER: Gary | ||
+ | * ABSTRACT: This is an introduction to Linux that is specifically for those with very limited knowledge of computers. | ||
+ | * This presentation may not have been given here before. Comments, recommendations, and suggestions for improvement are expected. | ||
+ | * BIO: YES | ||
+ | * REMARKS: | ||
+ | * We did/do/do not have an alternative (secondary) topic on hand. | ||
+ | * 2022-09-07 Comments: | ||
+ | * Scott may do two relatively short presentations. | ||
+ | * Stan R alternatively committed to doing session on MAN PAGES. | ||
+ | * We may just start doing Q&A and Call-for-Help right away, if we don't get short BASE items. | ||
+ | * 2022-10-03 Comments: | ||
+ | * Instead of one short BASE and one much longer MAIN, we changed September SLUUG meeting structure. | ||
+ | * Started with Q&A and Call-for-Help right away, then went into three (3) short length talks. | ||
+ | * Stan R could instead present a "What is Linux" talk. | ||
+ | * See below. | ||
+ | * 2022-11-02 Comments: None | ||
+ | * 2022-12-05 Comments: None | ||
+ | * 2023-01-09 Comments: | ||
+ | * Prior BASE topic was **Searching for Applications** by Stan Reichardt | ||
+ | * Stan R thought beginning was more complex than should have been. Following all the way through, it did make sense. | ||
