The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting IN PERSON, on Tuesday, November 4th, at 7:30pm. Yes, that's the
FIRST Tuesday of the month...
RTFM: /bin Diving, Deutero-leanin'
We are keeping it simple and interactive this month: a double /bin
dive. Trevor Cordes will be walking us through the fun.
/bin diving is a segment where we select a command at random on the
spot and everyone gets to work out what it does and what it's good
for. Collaboration and improv at its finest. It always ends up
being interesting and you're guaranteed to learn something new!
AGM
Plus, this month's meeting will be the MUUG annual general
meeting, which includes the election of the MUUG board of
directors for the 2025-2026 year (usually by acclamation).
Where to find the Meeting: **NOTE NEW LOCATION**
Winnipeg Senior Citizens Radio Club, 598 St. Mary?s Road, 2nd Floor
WSC is located at 598 St. Mary's Road, 2nd Floor, a block South
from the St. Mary's / St. Anne's fork, on the West side beside the
Miller's Meats. It's in the old fire hall, so you really can't
miss it! Look for the red door.
There is no elevator, so attendees will have to be able to climb a
flight of stairs. Apologies to anyone requiring accessibility.
There are a limited number of parking spaces for WSC around the
building. If you arrive early you'll probably snag one. If not,
there is parking available on the nearby streets, such as Mager
Dr, or the streets off of St. Mary's such as Blenheim or Clonard
Ave. Be careful not to park in nearby private parking lots unless
otherwise indicated.
For those unable or preferring not to attend in person, the
meeting will also be available online, using BBB as usual. Stay
tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which
will be made available about a half hour before the meeting
starts. (Reload the page if you don't see the link, or if there
are issues with connecting.)
The group now holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the *first* Tuesday of
every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and
August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a
MUUG member to attend.

A reminder that the MUUG meeting will be this evening, both in person
and online. See below for details on NEW LOCATION...
The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting IN PERSON, on Tuesday, October 7th, at 7:30pm. Yes, that's the
FIRST Tuesday of the month...
ncdu
Brad Vokey will present and demo "ncdu" (NCurses Disk Usage), a
powerful, interactive, and fast disk usage analyzer for Unix/Linux
systems. It provides a text-based user interface (TUI) based on
the ncurses library, offering a more user-friendly and visual way
to explore disk space consumption compared to the traditional "du"
command.
RTFM: /bin Diving
If time permits, we will also be taking a dive into the /bin, with
this month's host Trevor Cordes. /bin Diving is our segment where
we pick a random program in /bin to demo and discuss and learn
about as a group. It's improv at its best!
