Today, I discovered a nice little feature in Notepad. By accident.

Old quest
You might say my Linux quest failed miserably. I got defeated in the land of unexplained instructions and fairyland errors that had no right to exist.
But, you would be wrong. Using Linux as a platform for a website never was a real goal. It was a means to an end.

Right. I like a challenge. This ASP.NET on Linux quest had me stumped though. And that was getting on my nerves. I had been following all the instructions and shaving a few Yaks on the go and yet it still refused to work.

Our quest to get a bare bones website running on a shared hosting Linux server, got stalled at trying to run the ASP.NET 5 examples on a (virtual) dedicated Linux server.

The quest I announced earlier to get a bare bones ASP.NET 5 (aka vNext) website running on a shared Linux hosting account begins.
A couple of weeks ago, I already downloaded and installed Visual Studio 2015 RC and started it to have a look around. Since then only used it to create a couple of code examples while answering questions on the web.
