Some Good Advice

When designing an interface, imagine that your program is all that stands between the user and hot, sweaty, tangled-bedsheets-fingertips-digging-into-the-back sex.

Re: bash resources

if anybody knows of a way to make the urls above open in a new tab instead of the current, please let me know. (forum/BB-code option i mean, not FF about:config-stuff) i hate it when they open in the same tab.

Many people prefer to choose whether to open a link in a new tab or the same tab themselves. In Firefox I always set all links to open in the same tab by default, then do a middle-click, or Ctrl+click, if I want a new tab. I expect most browsers would offer something similar.

...and thank you for a very nice collection of bash reference links!

Re: bash resources

Yep, forcing link control in the site's code is malpractice.

Hot collection by the way :-D

Re: bash resources

Nice collection. I'm gonna pimp the grml zsh resources in case anybody gets the desire to play with that one. It's like bash, but with some enhanced options.

Re: bash resources

ah ok, so let's not talk about the websites i build myself where i always use target=_blank
good thing they are not big and commercial, or i would be sued for malpractice.

nah i understand the idea, i am just to egocentric to think anybody could want it any other way than i do, that's all. need to be reminded of that sometimes.

anyway, thanks for the kind words and if you have more resources, keep 'em coming! i just thought of one myself which i'll add now: bash oneliners.

I don't care about browser wars or distro wars, but I'm a shell warmonger
