Proficiency

Most of the codes I have written has been in C, C++, Javascript and Objective C. I'm familiar with scheme and python, and have learnt about Go, Ruby and Lua. Six years of Linux development experiences made me familiar with a lot of command line tools such as zsh, bash, tmux, git, awk，grep，vim etc. My major editor was Emacs and now is vim. I had several years experience with Qt and Gtk+。
