Honestly, I never tried this on Windows, so, my advice would be you installing Python for Windows. Here you will find more information.

For users of Unix-based operating systems (Linux, MacOS...), if you connect using ssh, include an option -x, and it will allow graphics to be transfered through the network.

ssh -x USER@csc.cpsc.ucalgary.ca

For more information on this, look at this other question.

You will need a SSH software (Secure-Shell). Most of Unix-based operating systems include this by default, and by that I am saying that if you use pretty much any distribution of Linux or MacOS-X.. yes, you are covered!

To connect you use the following command:

ssh USER@csc.cpsc.ucalgary.ca

where:

• USER is your CPSC account

Windows people, I did not forget about you. Myself, I have installed Putty for SSH on my windows partition, but you can find other softwares for the same purpose. If you want to try that one, go to the Putty Download Page.

You will need a scp (that makes copy over ssh) software. Most of Unix-based operating systems include this by default, and by that I am saying that if you use pretty much any distribution of Linux or MacOS-X.. yes, you are covered!

To copy you use the following command:

scp USER@csc.cpsc.ucalgary.ca:PATH DEST

where:

• USER is your CPSC account
• PATH is where your file is (starting from the home directory for your account)
• DEST is where you want to copy your files to (in your local machine)

Windows people, I didn't forget about you. Myself, I have installed Pscp (from Putty) for secure copy. But you can find other softwares for the same purpose. If you want to try it, go to the Putty Download Page. For Pscp, you will just substitute scp for  pscp in the command line above.

Despite my last name, I am not from Cuba (or Filipinnas), and asking if I am somehow relative from Fidel is a recurring joke...  But I am actually from Brazil. And I am not his relative!

I am trying to improve my pronunciation and if you see (or hear) me saying something wrong, I do appreciate your feedback on that too... I only can correct myself when I am aware of my mistakes, right?

Err... No. Not at all!

While I am able to understand people speaking Spanish if they speak really slowly and I can read some Spanish, I cannot speak it at all.

Some people think that all countries in Latin-America speak Spanish, which is not true. Most of the countries do speak Spanish, but:

• In Guyane (or French Guiana), an overseas part of France, they speak.... French
• In Suriname, the official language is Dutch.
• And, in Brazil, we speak.... PORTUGUESE!

If you take a look at the translation version of different softwares (Internationalization), you might even notice that there is, quite often, a version called Brazilian-Portuguese (as there are some differences from the Portuguese that is spoken in Portugal).
