Part 5 is here. I’ve been having problems with my free hosting at openomy, but no matter I now have my own server running. When I get Apache up and running, I’ll host my stuff over there. For now, the video below comes directly from YouTube. Bad quality, but still does the job.

And here we cover “Checking in” and “Checking out” files. Silly me, since I haven’t been scripting these, you’ll notice in the beginning I say this one will be, “The shortest video so far.” Hah! and oops.
