Use LAME or Itunes-LAME.

I use “–preset fast extreme” in the presets for LAME.

New method for renaming tabs is to place the following code in the (.bashrc or .profile):

export PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${HOSTNAME}: ${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"'

Works great!

I found & secussfully used a cool program called go figure WinClone LINK to backup my Bootcamp partition to an image and re-image it into place on my new computer. I was migrating my accounts from one computer to another & I released I had no way of backing up my MS partition. In comes WinClone which works great! I just placed the old computer in “Target” firewire mode & copied out the M$ partition to a disk image on my new computer. Then partitioned and re-imaged the M$ Bootcamp on the new system.

Took 20 min tops.

export PS1="[\u@\h \w]\\$” # Nice one line prompt
export HISTTIMEFORMAT=”%h/%d - %H:%M:%S ” # keep track of time
export HISTSIZE=10000 # big history
