I would hate to think what windoze uploads on a daily basis.... :o

One day my windows 10 updated (though it was manual) and used up my whole data plan (I got 3gb per day at that time). Usually windows update that I got were not very big (except for 1-2 big sized updates yearly)

Re: White space in a program

Or you can use- mkdir -p "\"$A\".extracted" But the resultant directory will be "filename". extracted . The reason your code didn't work was that that doing ""$A".extracted" would be equal to $A".extracted", since '''' is like opening and closing quotes ('' and then '').

Are reversed linux escape sequences legal?

Are reversed linux escape sequences legal?

For example are \x1b[1;31m and \x1b[31;1m equal to each other?

Re: Normal daily data uploads?

It shows the amount of data that you used for whatever task you did. Puppy doesn't use any data itself.

Is this normal?

Well, it all depends on your own daily data usage.

Exa install script - alternative to ls command

I found a great alternative to ls command- exa . It also gives different colours to different file types. It is very easy to install it, but I am posting a shell script to do it (This saves one google search for you :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ). (The main reason of this post is to bring this great command ...

Re: How to configure konsole for fossapup64?

I have set konsole as default terminal already but I am not sure if the configuration files should be like they are. For example when I do

Code: Select all

echo $TERM

I get

Code: Select all

xterm

.
So should it be like that only or should it be configured to something else.
