    Perl multi-process

    hmm interesting, does this work just to write to a file? In theory, it'd be cool if I could use the enqueue program independent of the dequeue so I could if I wanted to just use the enqueue program to queue up the commands and run the deque loop later. What I'm using it for is sometimes I...

    Perl multi-process

    Hello all, I'm trying to write a program, actually a pair of programs in perl. The first program should accept a commandline argument and write it to a file. The second program should loop over the lines in that file and process each one in turn, then delete it. It's your typical queue setup...

    I hated the arrows too when I saw them, but there's a preference to turn them off!

    Linux on my iBook?

    took me the better part of an hour to find it again (SourceForge has TERRIBLE search capabilities) but I found what helped me. http://ppcconfdb.sourceforge.net/ This is a database of config files for linux. I just put gentoo on my iMac having no Linux, only practice on Mac OSX and it took...

    Can't access files from within linux, permissions problem on OS X?

    You've gotten further than I. I have gentoo and I've been trying to read a partition that's formatted hfsplus and when it mounts, I can only see a file that says "Where have all my files gone?" and instructs me to upgrade to os 8,6 or later. Anyway, I have been playing around with a program...

    Character Palette Problems

    Hey, I'm having the same problem. Every time I start up or open the force quit dialog it opens despite my incessant deselecting of the menu option. Digiman, what was it you deleted and where? I wouldn't want to delete unicode support in Adobe if that's what that was.

    Comcast Faster!

    Comcast lied to us for over 6 months ending in termination of our service. It's a long, bitter story. At&t was so much better, whenever we had a problem they'd credit our account for the whole month.

    MacOS X.4 User Interface Idea

    Power users already have this: Terminal. it will edit your files in pico, ftp, it will even provide psychriatic help in emacs. the command open http://www.apple.com -- opens a new browser window with apple.com in it. you can already type /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunes or...

    Tab completion in Bash

    Ah just what I was looking for. I had almost switched back to tcsh too but thought I should learn bash because it's standard on most linux distros. Don't worry davidbrit2, you aren't alone in thinking that this behavior of bash is a step backwards from tcsh.

    What applications to use with X11? Suggestions and reviews

    I highly recomend setting up Fink if you want to play with X11. It may be a bit of work to get fink running (although good faqs exist) but once it is running, everything else is much easier. The only X11 program I didn't install with fink was OpenOffice.org. I use GIMP regularly, and Abiword...

    m4p restrictions

    Ah, many thangs ElDiabloConCaca. I suppose it wasn't anything factual that led me to believe that my authorization was lost, I just found that they were deauthorized and made the assumption. poor umption :) If Apple made it so smart it seems like they should publicize it more but I guess...

    m4p restrictions

    It's not the song or the computer that is the issue. The songs are authorized by central server. When you want to authorize you need an internet connection. Once the computer is authorized you can play them without a connection. The server knows how many computers have been authorized so there's...

    openssh < v3.7 vulnerablility

    I'm glad it's fixed, even thought the version number is still 3.4. I might try the symbolic link thing too... I tried copying the new one into the directory apple uses and it couldn't find libraries and stuff but I guess a symbolic link should help that.

    Longhorn Release Date...woot.

    "Yeah, I think we need another way to Bold text. Right now we can use the B icon, right click the selected text and choose Format, use the drop down menu, or use the Style Sheet editor." Don't forget the ctl-b shortcut, I learned that one by accident the other day.
