@Guillochon Well, it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but I've found it simpler to use especially if you have complex gridding. Of course, it can be done with Graphics/Grid/Row/etc., but I can never seem to remember the paddings and spacings that need to be fiddled with
Hmm OK...well anyhow, it looks like actually this isn't working out for me to put things in TraditionalForm, when I put it in a Row, it reverts back to DisplayForm
Try: Style[Row[{Spacer[200], "string"}], FontSize -> 15] You might have to manually adjust the Spacer value for now. It's possible to do it programmatically, but you can figure that out... also, if it's a one-off thing, no point in digging in right now
@halirutan That was a consideration, but no... I made it a cursive RM, but people complained that they couldn't ping me. Then I made it rm -rf just as a play on the initials. The present one was purely for fun
Actually, it was when someone asked me (a few days ago) why this chatroom had a strange and weird fascination for toads that I decided to change for fun
@Rojo @Hypnotoad Btw, and apropos GitHub. I found a bug in the autocompletion-code not related to the algorithm. When I set up the functions in the Kernel/init.m, the code is executed when the kernel starts up and at this point the FE has not been started. Therefore, the functions I redefine FE`FC... do not exist. It works anyway, but is there a better alternative than putting it into Kernel/init.m?
I looked at Frontend/init.m but this consists only of option settings and not of real code.
Do we have any function that work ParallelTry in sequentional form, to Apply the GCD to a list and once a result of >1 is found, it aborts and return False. Apply[GCD, list] will try all values
In the course of events, a number of users have changed their usernames--some more than once. Here I'm not referring to changing the automatically assigned username into something more personal, but rather the situation of an already established user suddenly choosing to go by a different name.

@halirutan I think you mean that when the kernel executes its init.m file, not all of the front end bits have been loaded into the kernel, yet. I haven't looked at this in a while, but yes, I recall that there are some annoying sequencing issues here. Yes, I think you might have better luck with an Autoload package, but I haven't tried it to say for sure.
Incidentally, in the upcoming 9.0.1, some of the behind-the-scenes stuff for completion is changing. It's going to invalidate a few answers, like the one for camel-hump completion. But there are a number of improvements and bug fixes. But no camel-hump completion (yet).
So. We’ve torn through the advent calendar, tossed aside all the wrapping paper, and (hopefully) obsessively screencapped our gravatars wearing various kinds of silly hats. As of last Friday, Winter Bash 2012 is officially over!
This event was awesome. We had a total of 46,710 users participating across 76 sites, and we gave away 108,924 hats total. The most common hat was the And I Feel Fine hat, which 23,171 users earned for activity on December 21st. The least common hat earned was I Do Say, which was obtained by Bohemian, on Stack Overflow, and kalina, on Arqade for posting an epic 30 …
The physics involved in simulating galaxy collisions can be extremely complex. The most accurate simulations take into account not just points representing stars, but also magnetic fields and invisible dark matter, as well as n-body interactions allowing the individual stars to interact with each other. These complex simulations are usually carried out on large-scale supercomputers [...]
