I think you will find they are still somewhere on the face of the Earth just not posting in the forum.

Apart from the exageration I would agree this is annoying.

I know. Its just annoying when you are using Xcode to create an application (.sh files) and some of the files in that application are from a Ubuntu booting computer(Unix Executable).DougieLawson wrote:Extensions are 100% irrelevant. We're not running Windows with its broken file associations crud. Unix determines the contents of a file with the magic bytes in the header.

I NEED TO THROTTLE THE IDIOT THAT CAME UP WITH TWO FILE NAMES AND EXTENSIONS THAT DO THE EXACT SAME THING.
If you have a shell script named /usr/local/bin/foo and another named /usr/local/bin/foo.sh it doesn't make a blind bit of difference. You can have an executable called /usr/local/bin/bar or /usr/local/bin/bar.sh and again it's just an executable file.

Perhaps it is ( ubuntu specific versions/forks/alterative) binary programs called from shell script on osx? aka shell script dependency hellPeterO wrote:Nope, still not getting what you are so annoyed about....DrDominodog51 wrote: Its just annoying when you are using Xcode to create an application (.sh files) and some of the files in that application are from a Ubuntu booting computer(Unix Executable).

STOP DOING IT PEOPLE. BE NICE!
Give the new user a break by feeding them the link they need. It's not hard.

So you expect the solution to be the first page of the first link on the first page of links that google provides ?aTao wrote:Smart phones..
So, some-kind-of-phone running some-kind-of-os. Internet explorer works fine, facebook app says no network.
Solution: set date and time correctly.
The next time some one says "Google it" I will scream. Took about 6 search strings and about 6 or 7 pages from each search to find the solution.

Proof reading is invaluablerurwin wrote:There was me, writing a document in LaTeX -- a very good text processing application. However it is not the most modern of apps and needs fonts that have been prepared for it. I had a font I wanted to use, a fun one where each character is formed from figures like something out of Venician canival or dark fairy tales. It is called Bizzaro. So I wanted to know if anyone had already prepared this font to work with this text processing app...
And I Googled "bizzaro latex".
The defense rests.
