[ros-users] Fuerte cheat sheet available for ROS-By-Example book

[Patrick Goebel]

Hello ROS Fans,

My ROS By Example <http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/pirobot> book was 
written for ROS Electric.  For those of you using ROS Fuerte, I have put 
together a cheat sheet that details the changes you have to make to use 
the book and sample code with Fuerte instead of Electric.  The code 
repository itself has been updated to be compatible with both ROS 
versions so basically you just need to use a few different launch files 
and RViz config files.  If interested, you can download the cheat sheet 
from the following link:

http://ros-by-example.googlecode.com/files/RBX1_Fuerte_Cheat_Sheet.pdf

I'd like to thank HBRC member *Ross Lunan* who provided me with some 
very helpful notes on how he got the book and code to work with Fuerte 
on his machine.

*One important caveat*: I have only tested this on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneric) 
but Ross tested it under 12.04 (Precise).  In any event, let me know if 
you run into any trouble.
