Download manager for Chrome

By
uGet is a download manager for Chrome which uses aria2, a command line download client, to speed up downloads. uGet supports segmented downloads which can generate a massive increase in download speed. In fact, we can reach the maximum bandwidth available using uGet. It can also serve as a true test for bandwidth capacity.  The best feature of uGet is that it can be integrated into Chrome (also Firefox) using a plugin from the Chrome Web Store. However, the Chrome Web Store plugin will not be able to find uGet unless the uget-integrator is installed first. The steps to integrate uGet into Chrome as a download manager are as follows. These commands work for Debian systems. For other Linux systems, the steps remain the same, only the commands would be different.

1. Install uGet and aria2

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:plushuang-tw/uget-stable
sudo apt update
sudo apt install uget
sudo apt install aria2

2. Install uGet-integrator

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:uget-team/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install uget-integrator

3.Install uGet Integration from Chrome Web Store

A little housekeeping might be required. We need to set the default download client to aria2

Settings -> Plug-In -> aria2

Also, I would set the default download location and the total number of active downloads.

Category -> Properties -> Category Settings -> Active Downloads -> 1 

Category -> Properties -> Default for new download -> Folder:

Fastest way to send multiple drafts from gmail

By
People claim that the fastest way to send multiple email drafts is to use Gmail IMAP with email client like Outlook or Evolution or Thunderbird. But I have found this is not true. Because Thunderbird and Evolution etc. email clients treats the drafts as emails still to be edited. So it is not just simple select all and hit send. Each email draft has to be opened and sent separately. That is a lot of clicks and mouse movements, wasting precious time and energy. I have a better solution which involves minimum keystrokes and mouse usage. Efficiency booster technique for sending emails. If someone is feeling adventurous and want to try it from the Gmail interface itself, here's how to do it in the fastest possible manner. It involves using the mouse once. Select the first draft. Gmail would open a new email box and put the cursor inside the box to write. Press TAB once to go the Send button. Press ENTER to send. Now Gmail sends it and the box is gone but the highlight goes to the last

Changing the font size of section headings in LaTex

By
You have several ways to do so: 1.- A direct redefinition of \section: \makeatletter \renewcommand\section{\@startsection{section}{1}{\z@}%                                   {-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}%                                   {2.3ex \@plus.2ex}%                                   {\normalfont\large\bfseries}} \makeatother 2.- By means of the titlesec package: \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\section}{\large\bfseries}{\thesection}{1em}{} 3.- By means of the sectsty package: \usepackage{sectsty} \sectionfont{\large} source : http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3245   Now, I would explain the titlesec package a bit more (because it seems easier to me and with more options) : To change the section fonts with this package put the following lines in the preamble - \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\ section }{\ large \ bfseries }{\thesection}{1em}{} Options available are- a> Font size - \normals
