The Battle.Net Experience
Here is something different, it is a Warcraft 3 cinematic map about Battle.Net
A short trip through the experiences of your every day B.Net'er. May induce childish laughter, lulz, nausea, depression or in some cases insanity.
It begins from login to Battle.Net to ending game, it is funny and I recommend You do download it.

vJass Highlight Extension for Gedit Gnome Linux
Installation Guide:
There are two files: vJass.lang and vJass.xml and they go to separate folders.
vJass.xml:
1 - This is an optional step. By making it you will be able to automatically have the vJass highlights mode when you open a ".j" file. It is not necessary to make the highlights work, but it is nice because this way you don't need to go to "View -> Highlight -> Others -> vJass".
2 - Go to "~/.local/share/mime/packages" (create it if it doesn't exist yet)
2.1 - Remember .local is a hidden folder, you have to enable the view of hidden folders
3 - paste this file there
4 - Go to "~/.local/share" and run: "update-mime-database mime" (if you can't run the command it is ok as well, but I advice to do so)
vJass.lang:
1 - This is the necessary step for you to have highlights working.
2 - copy this file to the following path: "/usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs"
All the process must be done with Gedit closed.
