	<title><![CDATA[Setting python version as default on Linux]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>If you have a later version than 2.6 you'll need to set 2.6 as the default Python. Later versions would be 2.7 and 3.1; see what you have by typing</p><pre>python -V
</pre><p><span>at the terminal. For purposes of this example we'll assume you have 3.1 installed. You'll next need to execute the following commands:</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><pre>sudo apt-get install python2.6 idle-python2.6
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.1 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.6 10
sudo update-alternatives --config python
</pre><p>This last command will allow you to choose which version of python to use by default. If you have done everything above correctly, python2.6 should already be set as the default. If it is not, choose it to be the default. From now on, running python should start version 2.6.</p><div><p>Undoing These Changes</p><p>In some cases (e.g., installing or updating certain packages), you'll get an error message if you've run the commands above. To update these packages, you'll have to temporarily undo these changes. Here's how to do that:</p><pre>sudo update-alternatives --remove-all python
sudo ln -s python3.1 /usr/bin/python
</pre><p>Once you're done updating these packages, execute the commands at the top to set python2.6 as the default again.</p></div>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>By using&nbsp;<code>plenv</code>, you can easily install and switch among different version of Perl. This will be installed under your home directory in<code>~/.plenv</code>.</p><h4>Install latest Perl (with supporting multithreading) and CPANMinus.</h4><pre><code> $ cd
 $ git clone git://github.com/tokuhirom/plenv.git ~/.plenv
 $ git clone git://github.com/tokuhirom/Perl-Build.git ~/.plenv/plugins/perl-build/
 $ echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.plenv/bin:$PATH"' &gt;&gt; ~/.bashrc
 $ echo 'eval "$(plenv init -)"' &gt;&gt; ~/.bashrc
 $ source ~/.bashrc
 $ plenv install 5.18.1 -Dusethreads
 $ plenv rehash
 $ plenv global 5.18.1
 $ plenv install-cpanm
</code></pre><ul>
<li><code>git</code>&nbsp;is a distributed revision control and source code management software which can help you to download files from GitHub server.</li>
<li><code>echo</code>&nbsp;means "print".</li>
<li><code>&gt;&gt;</code>&nbsp;means adding the output into the end of the file, while&nbsp;<code>&gt;</code>&nbsp;means adding the output by overwriting the whole file. Please use<code>&gt;</code>&nbsp;with additional cares.</li>
<li>In Linux system, there are two types of outputs when you execute a command. One is called standard output (or sometimes STDOUT for short), and the other is a standard error (STDERR).&nbsp;<code>1&gt;</code>&nbsp;is for STDOUT only,&nbsp;<code>2&gt;</code>&nbsp;is for STDERR only, and&nbsp;<code>&amp;&gt;</code>means for both. In default&nbsp;<code>&gt;</code>&nbsp;is the same to&nbsp;<code>1&gt;</code>.</li>
<li><code>exec</code>&nbsp;is execution.</li>
<li>Remember to install Perl in supporting multithreading (with option&nbsp;<code>-Dusethreads</code>), which is important for many NGS analysis packages (e.g. Trinity). In this setting, you can use multiple CPU for Perl software.</li>
<li>Install the CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) manager software, CPANMinus, by&nbsp;<code>install-cpanm</code>.</li>
</ul><p>You can use&nbsp;<code>plenv global</code>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<code>plenv local</code>&nbsp;to change the different version of Perl to fulfil different needs of your Perl software.</p><p>For example, if the&nbsp;specific version of Perl is not compatible with your script, you can switch to the different version by:</p><pre><code> $ plenv local 
</code></pre><ul>
<li>It is similar to set the local version of your script language when you use&nbsp;<code>pyenv</code>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<code>rbenv</code>&nbsp;as the following.</li>
</ul><p>Put the following path into&nbsp;<code>~/.bashrc file</code>.</p><pre><code>export PERL5LIB="$HOME/.plenv/build/perl-5.18.1/lib"
</code></pre><h4>Install BioPerl and PerlIO::gzip</h4><p>CPANMinus is a very good Perl module manager, use&nbsp;<code>cpanm</code>&nbsp;to install BioPerl can save you a lot of time. Here are some useful modules:</p><pre><code>$ cpanm Bio::Perl
$ cpanm Bio::SearchIO
$ cpanm PerlIO::gzip<br /></code></pre><p><span>For more information, please visit:&nbsp;</span><a href="https://github.com/tokuhirom/plenv">https://github.com/tokuhirom/plenv</a></p><pre><code>&nbsp;</code></pre>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Check the Size of a directory &amp; Free disk space.]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The amount of databases we bioinformatician deal are just HUGE &hellip; In such cases, we always need to check our server for free spaces etc. I planned this article to explains 2 simple commands that most bioinformatician want to know when they start using Linux / BioLinux. First: Size of a directory (du) and and second: free disk space that exists on your machine (df).</p><p><br /><strong>'du' &ndash; Check the size of a directory</strong></p><p><br />$ du<br />This command ( du) gives you a list of directories that exist in the current working directory along with their sizes in kilobytes (default). The last line of the output gives you the total size of the current directory including its subdirectories. <br /><br />$ du /home/jin1<br />The above command would give you the directory size of the directory /home/david<br /><br />$ du -h<br />The same &ldquo;du&rdquo;command with some flag gives you a better output than the default one. The option '-h' stands for human readable format. Therefore, in order to print the sizes of the files / directories in your desire notation use this time suffixed with a 'k' if its kilobytes and 'M' if its Megabytes and 'G' if its Gigabytes.<br /><br />$ du -ah<br />If you are interested in checking everything present in a folder use above mentioned command. It gives us not only the directories but also all the files that are present in the current directory. The &ldquo;-a&rdquo; flag displays the filenames along with the directory names in the output. <br /><br />$ du -c<br />This gives you a grand total as the last line of the output. So if your directory occupies 30MB the last 2 lines of the output would be 30M.<br /><br />$ du -s<br />Use this command to displays a summary of the directory size. It is the simplest way to know the total size of the current directory.<br /><br />$ du -S<br />This would display the size of the current directory excluding the size of the subdirectories that exist within that directory. So it basically shows you the total size of all the files that exist in the current directory.<br /><br />$ du --exculde=mp3<br />Several times it required to exclude some directory in our size calculation. In such cases the above command would display the size of the current directory along with all its subdirectories, but it would exclude all the files having the given pattern present in their filenames.</p><p><br /><strong>'df' - finding the disk free space / disk usage</strong><br /><br />$ df<br />Hmmm &hellip; now &ldquo;df&rdquo; command is really useful, and I guess you are going to use it over time. Typing the above command, outputs a table consisting of 6 columns. All the columns are very easy to understand. Remember that the 'Size', 'Used' and 'Avail' columns use kilobytes as the unit. The 'Use%' column shows the usage as a percentage which is also very useful.<br /><br />$ df -h<br />Displays the same output as the previous command but the '-h' indicates human readable format. Hence instead of kilobytes as the unit the output would have 'M' for Megabytes and 'G' for Gigabytes.<br /><br />Example: Linux installed on /dev/hda1<br />$ df -h | grep /dev/hda1</p><p><br />All right, this is not the only option to check the sizes and free spaces but there are a few more options that can be used with 'du' and 'df' . I will discuss it later.<br /><br /></p>]]></description>
