How to set a correct keyboard layout in i3 window manager

Recently I rediscovered for myself the i3 desktop environment, got tired of windows spread here and there, but I am using an Apple aluminum keyboard with french letters and numeric keypad (just used to it), and I just hated that the layout did not correspond to what is marked on the buttons out of the box. To try to find a solution I googled and tried many things. I eventually ended up using

localectl

to set the correct keyboard layout. So below are the steps which might help you out:

Ubuntu 10.10 looks like Mac Os

Recently my friend sent me an interesting link to an application that makes your ubuntu look just like Mac(here it is http://lifehacker.com/5665765/macbuntu-makes-your-linux-desktop-look-like-mac-os-x). I installed it successfully, but have problems with links in places and the link to nautilus in the dock, they do not work, and also strange duplicates in places. I think later I will figure out how to fix it.))

But still I enjoy it very much.

Mac Ports automation bash script

Mac ports is a very useful system for installing linux applications ported to MacOS (http://www.macports.org), it is easy to use and I am happy with it till now. But it does not delete the old versions of software after update, or I just did not find a proper command for this. So I wrote this bash script to automate the task and successfully used it.
Here is its output during the execution:

I used this tutorial http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/arrays.html to write the script.
