In the first part of this field report I reviewed the Organizer of Photoshop Elements 8. In this part I review the Editor of PSE 8. It is based on Photoshop CS4.
Adobe cropped some functions and tools of CS 4 in PSE’s Editor but added some new ones which were designed for beginners.
Whether these crops constrains my work flow or not shows the following report.

Hobby photographers will look for a photo organizer and editor sooner or later. Especially if you are working with RAW photos you expect a optimized work flow from such a “all-included” software with media organizer, raw converter, photo editor and additional built-in tools.
Photoshop Elements 8 (PSE) contains all these compounds and the manufacturer Adobe® is known for high quality and professional graphic software as Photoshop CS and Lightroom.
PSE 8 is divided into two parts: the Organizer, which manage all your media data and the Photo Editor, the image processor. The first part of this field report is focused on the Organizer.

FreeNAS supports the appropriate hardware of the FreeBSD-Version where FreeNAS is based on. But sometimes it is necessary to install a third-party or a self-compiled driver. This how-to describes how to install a downloaded binary Ethernet interface (NIC) driver on a “full installation” of FreeNAS/NAS4Free. It was written for non-experienced Unix users.
If you have installed FreeNAS/NAS4Free embedded, refer “Install Ethernet driver on FreeNAS/NAS4Free (embedded)” for details.

If you use FreeNAS or NAS4Free as a file server it is highly recommended to backup your data directories regularly. But often people do not make backups for the sake of convenience. Although it is pretty easy to setup an automated multi generation backup with FreeNAS. To avoid interfering your daily work it is reasonable to perform the backup at night.

The integrated filemanager of FreeNAS is not sufficient for some tasks. For Windows users WinSCP provides all missing functions to manage your files on a FreeNAS server, e.g. change ownership of files or to feed your server with data. Only the ssh service has to run.

Activate UTF-8 on WinSCP - German version
It is easy to setup session data but by default German umlauts or other non-ASCII characters in file and folder names were not displayed correctly. To avoid this the UTF-8 support of WinSCP has to be activated explicitly. The default setting “auto” is not sufficient. You may find the setting in “Enviroment” in the entry “UTF-coding for filenames” or similar. Turn on this setting solves the problem.
On Filezilla umlauts are displayed correctly by default.

Sometimes it is useful for a Fortran 90 program to know on which platform it runs. The main reasons why I wrote the module PLATFORM are to know where the home directory is and where to store the configure files (e.g. namelist-files) on the currently used platform without maintaining different platform-dependent source files.
The module PLATFORM detects:
- DOS-based Windows platforms, as 95/98(SE)/ME
- NT-based Windows platforms, as NT/2000/XP/Vista/7
- Unix(-like) platforms, as Linux, MacOS X, etc.

Sometimes it could be necessary to rescue data from a FreeNAS hardisk or other UFS-formatted drives. UFS will not be recognized and mounted on Linux or Windows automatically. To read data from these disks on Linux some steps are needed to be done. For Microsoft Windows® third party drivers are available for this purpose.
