While you are messing around with your email client you should add our trouble email: remark at ccbb.utexas.edu. Note that this is not gripe@ like many other computer groups on campus use, because we do not consider asking for help and complaining to be the same thing. Remember that if you do not tell us about a problem, or issue we cannot address it. Also, we are not mind readers, so please provide as much information as possible.

Initially when you use the cluster you can use some of our pre-canned scripts. After awhile you will probably be interested in write your own, or perhaps you will be forced to do so. While you can continue to use our scripts as templates for your own you might also want to get some books on scripting, and programming. First, you can get quite decent scripting done just by learning more about the shell we use which is the BASH shell. O'Reilly and Associates ahs a book on BASH which is called Learning the BASH Shell . This would also be useful for people wanting just to learn more about the powerful things they can do on the command line, or who want more information about the things they can do to customize their environment. They also have books on Perl, and Python for people interested in using BioPerl, or BioPtyhon. Computer Science also has Perl, Python, C++, and possibly other programming classes listed under the CS 105 class headinghttpheading http://x.cygwin.com/. You will also want to read our documentation on the SGE Batch system which you will use to submit jobs to the cluster.
