Automating ssh logins

I found this cool technique to automate ssh logins from
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/152

First create a key pair

username@host:~$ ssh-keygen -t rsa

Then copy the generated key to the remote host machine.

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub username@remote-host

Great Latex editor for Windows

I came across latexeditor.org(LeD editor) which is probably the best editor for Windows. It has features which are distant from editors like Tecnix Center, some of them are
-> In-build DVI viewer
-> Support of bibliography and reference autocompletion
-> Support for scientific dictionary and thesaurus

My only complaint is that it looks unfinished. Also the word wrapping does not seem to work correctly when reusing the tex file in Kile later.
