And as long as I was at it, I decided to go to <a href=http:\/\/www.blosxom.com>blosxom&#8217;s website<\/a>, and see if I could figure out a couple of the plugins to do things like automatically make a directory list, and make quick links to the posts, and things like that.  And, after many hours of hacking this weekend, I finally got it mostly working the way I want it to, with the blogs I read (using javascript code from <a href=http:\/\/www.bloglines.com>bloglines<\/a>), the directory structure of this blog, and recent posts all in the left margin.  Finally.  I even had to modify a couple of the plugins to get it just right, so I learned a bit about Perl, or at least regular expressions.  But I&#8217;m done now.  Yay!<\/p>\n<p>Of course, since it took so long to get all this durn formatting the way I wanted it, it means that I probably won&#8217;t get around to putting up the actual content I&#8217;d been meaning to this weekend.  And not all of the pages will be updated immediately to the new format, unfortunately &#8211; I do all the rendering on my local machine and upload it to my site, so until I write the Perl script which will automagically upload the entire directory tree (and, yes, I know it&#8217;s easy, but I want to learn to do it myself), it&#8217;ll be done on a piece-by-piece basis.
