Just copy over the old profiles, and delete the newest "default" profile.
Adding A Flatiron Customization To Your Terminal in VSCode
Adding A Flatiron Customization To Your Terminal
Start out by making a backup for your
.bashrc
mv .bashrc .bashrc.bak
We will want a tool for converting Windows endings to Unix endings for our new
.bashrc
sudo apt-get install dos2unix
download the new
.bashrc
curl -R "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flatiron-school/dotfiles/master/.bashrc-windows" >> $HOME/.bashrc
We'll use our converter to convert our bashrc to use the right unix endings:
dos2unix .bashrc

How to start PGsql Postgres server
Try directly using:
sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql start
else:
pgrep -u postgres -fa -- -D
How to start Postgres
There again are several ways to start Postgres. If you’re running a Debian-based distribution, you should find the perl wrappers pretty handy.
For Debian or Debian-based (including Ubuntu) Linux distributions
First, issue pg_lsclusters to find out your cluster name:
pg_lsclusters
Ver Cluster Port Status Owner Data directory Log file
12 main 5432 online postgres /var/lib/postgresql/12/main /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-12-main.log
To start that particular cluster, you just need to issue:
pg_ctlcluster <Version> <Name> start
So, in our example, it will be:
pg_ctlcluster 12 main start
if that gives an error, use:
sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql start
may need to then run:
584 rake db:drop
586 rake db:create
587 rake db:migrate
588 rake db:seed

SMX controller gamepad program buttons
To program the M1-M4 buttons hold one of them and then press the Back (for single button) or Start (for combination of buttons) and the colour of the right thumbstick will change to purple. Let go of the M button and then press the buttons or button you want and then finally press the M button again. That M button will now mirror those buttons/button. I've found it very useful for using the controller in one hand whilst using the mouse in the other.
