It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Please tell me everyone knows this trick.

I know it! I've done it with many a m3u file.

Also, I don't know if this works on non-mp3 streams.

There are many ways to stream audio. That trick only works on some of them.

Ugh. Yes. My series is dv6448se. I'm assuming that falls under the dv64xx.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I really like Notepad++. Anyone know of something similar for the Mac?

what does Notepad do?

What do you want the Mac equivalent to do? There are plenty of Notepad equivalents.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I don't know Notepad++, or know what features are crucial for you -- that said, I'm a big fan of TextWrangler, and TextMate also has a lot of fans.

The features I really like are syntax highlighting and syntax folding for various languages. Also, the ability to do bookmarks, regular expressions, macros, automatic indentation of code and brace highlighting.... stuff like that.
