I think the idea of Carrafix is awesome, and I'm curious, from a "Darwin underpinning" as the author purts it, how the data packets have a pause applied to them? He explains that the upload speed of the local server can be reduced by applying a pause to the outgoing data packets (on a...

Perfect thanks Hazmat

While I'm still going to look for a darwin alternative, I figured out that I could probably just open my web page in IE and select Save as Plain Text :) That'll have to suffice for now, but thanks for all the hints guys! :cool:

That's very kind of you but I don't know how to implement this into a script, I know 0 perl... :rolleyes:

The desktop photograph is of tha Na Pali' coast of Kauai'i Island (Hawai'i). I love having such a cool pic, and having one that I actually took myself! :p

I was wondering if there was any simple utility, either graphical or Darwin, to strip HTML tags from an HTML (i.e., plaintext) file? A perl utility would be best, since I do a lot of work remotely on the terminal. TIA :p

Thanks for your reply! I don't hvae a site up yet, and I'm still quite amateur, but I'll let you know when I have something. Do you have a site up?

That was perfect! I tried it and it seems to have worked perfectly (I'm not even in the same city as my computer today, so using only the terminal to view my MASSIVE text file) but it seems good! Thanks scruffy! :cool:

I have thousands (no joke) of text files I need concatenated into a single file. They are all separated into hundreds of little sub-folders, and some in 2-3 levels deeper. The folder names and file names are all alphabetically sorted. Is there any analogy to rm -r {directory_name} for cat...

Cheers! I'll give it a shot

That's really my first reason for getting it :) Thanks.

Like I said, can one burn CDs from the Terminal? I suppose it will be a third-party application somewhere? Just wondering what's good, if it's even possible at all. TIA!:p

I was thinking of getting one, and being a poor student, I need to figure out if it's worth it. What are your views and feelings on the iPod (I'd get the 5 GB model, it's all I can reasonably afford :)) TIA

Is anyone else having problems with the download link here: http://www.versiontracker.com/php/dlpage.php?id=13212&kind=1&db=mac I get the status bar message in IE 5.2 "Connecting..." -- "Requesting File (url)" (repeat ridiculously fast 3 times) then just fails. I also can't visit the...

sudo update_prebinding -root / You don't need to do it often (like, for example, defragmenting files) but I do it whenever I drag-and-drop install an application, or after major updates to the system (just in case Installer doens't do it completely).

Ok, I'll take a closer look at my whole setup. Thanks all! Your help was appreciated :)

Thanks for that as well as the ifconfig parameters!

Yeah, it's direct RJ45. Well it was worth a try :) Cheers!

Is there a way I can set media: 100BaseT full-duplex? I've got a little Nortel Networks ADSL adapter (model unknown) which may not support full-duplex; but if it does, would I have to configure this manually, or would my ethernet adapter determine automatically (and correctly) what my ADSL...

I was wondering if it's possible to put a ceiling on the amount of bandwidth my OS X (client version 10.1.5). I can't really find any keys appropriately named in httpd.conf Basically I don't want the outgoing connectiong to ruin my download speeds (on my little ADSL). Thanks!
