Installing Cassandra on Mac OS X

Homebrew is a great little package manager for OS X. If you haven't already, installing it is pretty easy:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

	var gulp = require('gulp');
	var elm = require('gulp-elm');
	var plumber = require('gulp-plumber');
	var del = require('del');

	// builds elm files and static resources (i.e. html and css) from src to dist folder
	var paths = {
	dest: 'dist',
	elm: 'src/*.elm',
	staticAssets: 'src/*.{html,css}'

	# Mac OS X Lion introduced a new, iOS-like context menu when you press and hold a key
	# that enables you to choose a character from a menu of options. If you are on Lion
	# try it by pressing and holding down 'e' in any app that uses the default NSTextField
	# for input.
	#
	# It's a nice feature and continues the blending of Mac OS X and iOS features. However,
	# it's a nightmare to deal with in Sublime Text if you're running Vintage (Vim) mode,
	# as it means you cannot press and hold h/j/k/l to move through your file. You have
	# to repeatedly press the keys to navigate.
