Back to HP

I'm back at HP, this time in Pleasanton working for the ILM doing Clearcase, Clearquest and release management. This division seems to rely heavily on an internal WIki for much of their documentation and process flow. Spent the first few says getting set up, installing my environment, getting logins, etc. Saw a requirement for an Evil Twin trigger so I offered up mine. Seems mine was not tested all that well under Unix and I had to change some things to remove the vob tag prefix. Also, handling of clearprompt on Unix is a little problematic. Seems that clearprompt is not gui oriented unless you specify -prefer-gui and even then it acts irratic because it does not pay attention to "\n" to represent new lines so I stuck with the non gui specification under Unix.
