Magic Sys Rq Key

The Issue

So the other day I was working with Android Studio on my Low Hardware Spec Ubuntu Machine. I decided to build an apk as emulators are simply not an option. But Guess what , my pc used all of the possible RAM and all the possible swap memory and hung(that's pretty rare for Ubuntu!).

I tried opening a terminal Ctrl+Alt+T hoping to kill android studio process. But the PC was unresponsive. This is despite using all the regular optimizations for android Studio that I found on Ubuntu Forums and Stack Overflow.

Any noob would have now headed out towards the power button. If you ever do come across this situation please do not use this approach. This is the last thing you should do, only if everything else fails.

Python Based Chat Program

This is a simple client-server Program to chat with other users on the Lan. This program largely similar to a chat using nc, easier to use and with a lot of less functionality.

Tested On:
OS: Fedora 20, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Language: Python

 Note

While this script works perfectly fine on loop back ie on the same machine, it may fail on a network since you might need to configure the server to accept incoming connections. You might want to check iptables or disable it completely.

Email Header Analyser Using Python

Q:Write a program in Python to analyze email header.

This program simply analyzes a email header stored locally on your machine in a text file and shows information like:

1. Mime Version
2. Date
3. Subject
4. From
5. Delivered To
6. To

This is nothing but a simple file handling and string matching problem. And to make it look insanely simpler, I decided to write the code with the minimum number of lines, and guess what I did manage it in just 15 lines. I did have to remove the exit messages though.
