I scrapped my old server and I am currently leeching on the server of the lovely TheSusanne.

Thankfully, the move posed no problems at all.

Emundo: The littlest update

So I made a sidebar that supports widgets. I'm fine tuning the css for the different widgets, trying to make it look ok.

New Wordpress theme: emundo

Tonight I began tinkering on a new Wordpress theme for this blog. emundo as I call it is made to look like the way I've styled my GNU emacs. I got the idea while using emacs-w3m and thinking that ‘this is what my blog should look like’.

Looks

At the time of writing this emundo has a 80 character wide area for the main content. I use full width bars on the Header-2 elements to mimic frames. The theme prefers Terminus for main text and headers, but will fall back to default monospaced font. The Header-1 element uses the default serif.

The theme is based on my take on the gunmetal theme by David O'Toole for emacs. My take has less fluorescent colours, but is still mostly the same as the original.

Infrastructure

Also new is that I have wised up and now track the theme with git. I set up a github repository where you can wallop in the code and cheer me on as I improve it. You might fork it too if you like.

Moving forward
