[quote]Darwin's VFS API is different from Linux's, so there would be porting involved. XFS is licensed under the GPL, which isn't compatible with the APSL license that Darwin uses, so legally it can't happen. But implementing a different filesys…

[quote]Originally posted by cowerd: [QB]Facts straight please. HFS+ has supported long files names since OS9 I believe, may be earlier. Just no support in the Finder, and many OSX carbon ports. Ooops. [quote]HFS+ is actually very fast comp…

Hey M3D, check out

Horrible I/O, lack of journalling, fragmentation, lack of 'guaranteed' io like XFS, stupid filename shortening, etc. It's holding X back.

How about Window shades? An option to turn off eyecandy, like translucency? Better finder threading? Instantaneous, well-threaded iDisk access? Journalling filesystem? Support for XFS or Reiserfs, because HFS+ sucks? [ 04-16-2002: Mes…

Kick ass guys. I've wondered for some time how to pipe finds to cp.

Though, I should add, resource forks aren't necessary for files w/ extensions, like .TTF or .PSD .PDF .GIF, etc. RF's are more for binary apps. You don't want to copy photoshop w/ out it's forks. cp = copy (duh!) -rf = what eugene said […

try: cp -rf /blah/fonts/[a-f]* /elsewhere/fonts/ cp -rf /blah/fonts/[g-l]* /elsewhere/fonts/ cp -rf /blah/fonts/[m-p]* /elsewhere/fonts/ cp -rf /blah/fonts/[q-s]* /elsewhere/fonts/ cp -rf /blah/fonts/[t-z]* /elsewhere/fonts/ then try: c…

Hey Eugene, what's your beef w/ the packaged distributions? How are they flawed?

Actually, unless you are in the middle of an SSH/rsync/sudo when you execute the update, no 'reinitialization' is necessary. The next time the binary (app) is executed, you will be running the latest version. If you have Apache/PHP running, restart …

if the folder is: groverats pr0n/ try cd groverats\\ pron/ I believe you can hit tab to autocomplete as well so try cd grov (tab)

Assuming the NT network uses DHCP, it should be easy as pie. People who actually have/use OSX on a laptop might want to chime in here. In OS9 there's a 'location manager' that makes swithing between home/work a one-click ordeal (once properly set up…

After booting up, select the partition you aren't going to use, then press Command-Y. If it says something babal/obvious, click 'OK' Now you have just one desktop file.

For one thing, it appears you are missing libreadline... Gnu Readline (I believe) is essential for compiling most things. Try reinstalling the developer tools, and if you have a fast connection, try grabbing the latest ones from Apple's site. …

To reiterate: OSX users, do the commands lynx google.com links google.com w3m google.com wget stimuli.ca/linux/scripts/make-cadaver do anything, or just return error messages? I don't have OSX, so I can't check myself.

Hey Mac Guru: Try this

for a list of commands, try ls /usr/bin/ | less and use arrow keys to scroll. Type 'q' to exit less. AFA configure, ./configure is a script that comes with the software. So if a file named configure does not exist in the source code folder, it …

I assume that was humor alcimedes, but telnet is super easy to haXxor if you are on a network. Here's a script that preloads stuff into ram. In this case, it is some pixmaps used for icons in linux, as well as my my m…

CodeMaster: check your .tcshrc in your home directory and compare it to others, the solution may be present in that file. Auto completion is a very handy thing to have. I myself do use bash. The differences (bash/tcsh) are pretty minimal, from wh…
