Finding the appcfg.p file for google app engine downloads with gcloud

Recently i got frustrated while looking at google app hosted website and i needed to update it. So first i need to download the files and i found that google has upgraded the sdk to a new entity called gcloud.

After so much frustration i solved it


1) It is all in linux
2) In addition to gcloud you need to install python extensions

ie => gcloud components install app-engine-python

3) Now  sudo find / -name "google-cloud-sdk" to see where all crap goes

4)  ls /usr/lib/google-cloud-sdk/platform/ 

Hope Now you recognise it 

It is hiding there

appcfg.py -A [YOUR_APP_ID] -V [YOUR_APP_VERSION] download_app [OUTPUT_DIR]

Google talk voice chat from linux

Hellow friends, To use voice chat from a linux machine to gtalk user from a windows system

Use jabbin from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jabbin

But i noticed that if the windows user is using googles client for gtalk the voice wont be audible eventhough pressing call button leads to ringing on the opposite end.

But if windows users uses jabbin's windows version at their end ,voice chat works fine .

here are the pictures to learn how to configure jabbin with in 5minutes. User interface is similar in both windows and linux(thanks to qt from trolltech)

Alternative is to use skype .
