codepad is an online collaboration tool for exchanging code which also integrates various compilers/interpreters. After entering code, codepad will run it and print the output.
New pads can be created without registration. For each pad you get a short URL for sharing the code.
Codepad provides syntax highlighting depending on the language. Supported languages are C, C++, D, Haskell, Lua, OCaml, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, Scheme, and Tcl. It can be also used to share plain text.
Standard LateX editors are optimized for small screens. But we are in 2012 and have big screens and your next monitor or laptop screen will likely even have larger resolution. The eclipse-plugin Texlipse takes advantage of this and provides an IDE for editing LateX documents with a real-time preview.

Das Gendering-Add-in steht als Open-Source-Software unter http://gendering.codeplex.com kostenlos zur Verfügung.
Unlike as it is in Linux, calling a batch file from another batch file causes the first process to be overload by the new one. So, as a C64 programmer would put it, it is rather a “GOTO” than a “GOSUB”. In order to avoid this problem, put a “call” command before calling the second batch file.
call sub.bat “Hallo”
call sub.bat “World”
Trello is a collaboration tool that organizes your projects into boards according to the Kanban principle. Trello tells you what’s being worked on, who’s working on what, and where something is in a process.
eclipse usually builds the .class files in a seperate binary folder named bin. Therefore it copies the directory structure and files from the src folders, which means that eventual .svn folders are duplicated in the bin tree, leading to irritation among subversion clients such as TortoiseSVN.
In order to overcome the problem, you can add .svn as a filtered resource. Open the properties dialog for your workspace or for your project, go to: Java Compiler | Building and add “.svn” to the list of ‘Filtered resources:’ under ‘Output folder’.
The project groups on Smart Grid and Self-Organinzing Systems are now using podio for project management and organizing collaboration at work.
