I'm using vim on the terminal app on my mac and I'm attempting to save files to my computer that are on my college's server. I am already linked into to the schools server is there a way to copy the files to my home directory and if so how?
If you have sshd running on the server, you can run the following from the terminal:
scp -r you#server:/home/you/some/place/* .
The above will copy all files on the server located in /home/you/some/place to the current directory that you are running the command from.

I am following a tutorial on multi-tenancy in Django (10:58/11:42) and I would like to modify the hosts file which I located alreadty. When I try to add a single letter, I get rejected:
But this leaves me quite confused, this is my laptop, and I do not have permission? Is there a way to do this differently ?
In the terminal type sudo nano /etc/hosts and then hit return.
Enter your administrator password and then hit return.
Then you should be able to edit the file.

If I have an executable: project/bin/exec, which caches data into a file.txt in its active directory, the location where file.txt will be saved depends on how I run the program:
project/file.txt if I run it from project with bin/exec
project/bin/file.txt if I run it from project/bin with ./exec
I'd like the program to always use the directory of the executable and I'd like to find out if there's a non-programatic way of forcing it to do it.
I'm interested in UNIX/Windows, does this even make sense?
Programatically, I know I could get the executable's directory by using boost or std::experimental filesystem, perhaps args[0] argument and use that path for I/O.
Is that the way to do it?
One way of doing this on Unix (part of the question) would be to use a script which would chdir before running executable.
Something like this:
#!/bin/ksh
loc=`dirname $0`
cd $loc
echo $PWD

I have setup a VMWare ubuntu virutal machine for development purposes. I ssh/vim in my vm and develop React/babel/webpack projects.
My webpack doesn't reload every time I save a file. It is not consistent. When I use my host operating system, it works perfectly.
Any clues?
Actually, there seems to be issue with timestamps and virtual machines.
I have good result by adding these params to the the webpack der server:
{
watchOptions: {
aggregateTimeout: 300,
poll: true
}
}

Can I set VirtualBox host to be automatically saved and closed, rather than asking me what to do for closing host window?
You can't tell VirtualBox to automatically save the state, or automatically power off the virtual machine when you attempt to close it.
If you're looking at the VirtualBox manager, though, and you have the machine selected, you could use one of the shortcuts (Control+V, ControlF for save/shutdown respectively) to save yourself a small amount of time.

I was trying to update VMware workstation v9 to v9.0.3. After downloading the update, the program attempted to uninstall current version but failed as it couldn't find uninstall.exe. I checked Programs and Features but don't see VMware Workstation listed. Looks like I need to manually uninstall it. Is there a process/ command?
Perhaps you can try this rather comprehensive knowledge base article from VMWare:
