Show running command as title in gnome-terminal

2 Mins. Read.

I’ve happily been running debian stable with gnome 43. I’m using the normal gnome-terminal that I generally open with ctrl+alt+t. It’s a hotkey i’ve configured in the gnome-settings. Having a hotkey makes it super quick to open a terminal, but that means i get a lot of them. By default they all of the same title, which is not great. It would be great if (like tmux) the window title would show the current running program.

I’ve been running my own mailserver for a while. This is not very common anymore and lots of people have problems with this due to MS and Google’s SPAM filters, lots of ISP’s blocking SMTP traffic and IP reputations of some ranges out there.

It gives me nice hostnames, so I can access my webcam via nice URL’s. I also run this blog on the machine, as well as my nextcloud instance.

This means that some features change and/or might not be available at this time of first release. The new designer is a big change and i’d like to highlight some changes here with regards to process and activity escalations. One element that the new workflow designer currently does not have is Process Escalations.

K2Five: Creating an asynchronous event

4 Mins. Read.
With the new release of K2 five and it’s workflow designer, we do not have the capability to write custom code in our workflow anymore. For some, this is a shocker and unbelievable. Having no code in your workflow has been a best practice for some organizations for years and as a low-code platform, it’s a nobrainer. However, there are requirements that always required code in the past, one of those Asynchronous server events.
