If all you need to store securely are text files, and you are a Vim
user, you can use Vim's built-in Blowfish encryption support.
:set cryptmethod=blowfish
Then use the :X command to set a key and encrypt the current buffer.

My personal opinion as a user is that it would be nice to abandon the

with the upstream. That seems more in line with the general Arch
philosophy of staying as current as possible. Also, GHC 7.4 has some

Try installing udev-git from the AUR. I had a similar problem with the
Fn key in combination with the F1-F12 keys on my laptop; X wasn't
registering any keypress events for those keystrokes. A thread on the
forums about a related issue [1] suggested trying udev-git and it solved
the problem for me.

You need an extra ':' in front of the 80 (":80:A:22"), otherwise it will
reject connections to the tunnel port that originate anywhere other than
the local host.
Maybe somebody has a better solution than this, but to me, the following
would be the obvious approach.
If host "A" is the fully firewalled server that hosts the FTP directory,
and server "B" is the server on which port 80 is accessible, then:

I'm not getting any lag with the same versions of dmenu and kernel26.
I'm using xf86-video-intel though, so maybe that makes a difference.
