Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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

What would be the command to list recursively all the files of a directory, along with the complete path? Like what you get with
ls -Rbut with the path and filename, and (ideally) without the blank lines and lines that just name a directory?

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
find `pwd` -print
Will print out the file and directory names. Note the backquotes.
find `pwd` -type f -print
Will print out just the regular files.
find . -type f -print
Will print the pathnames relative to the current directory.

Thrive to spite them
I'm getting a new monitor for Christmas, is there a big difference between brands or is one just as good as another? Right now I have a 15" CRT monitor and I'm looking at getting a 19" LCD.

when in Windows, I second Trillian. Good multi-chat.

Awesome, thanks--I've used Trillian before, I just haven't had a PC in so long, I only remember Adium for my Mac! Have it now, yay.

Hey. New board.
I have heard a lot of good things about Miranda for Windows IMing too. Not that I've tried it.
