Re-Installing Leopard Has Surprises
Did a stupid thing a few days ago and agreed to beta test some
software that required the use of Insanity's APE file (Application
Enhancer) - a strict "no no" for the Leopard users of this world.
Before Leopard if you wanted to change or alter the dock, Insanity
offered a neat little program that would do it for you and installed
the APE file.

What Apple nor Insanity told anyone was that Leopard and APE together
resulted in the blue screen of nothingness. That is, upon restart your
system would not display your desktop or all your icons, it just
displayed an empty blue screen. The mouse and keyboard worked but you
couldn't do anything or go anywhere.

In the middle of installing the beta software I noticed it was
installing APE and as quickly as I could, aborted the installation. I
forgot all about it and after a situation with my friend's new iMac...

  FOR and SET

I tried the following commands:
set ff=.
for %%i in (*) do set ff=%%i;%%ff%%

in the hope that %%ff%% is growing but that is not the case. The FOR
command retrieves the ff environment variable as it was the before the
set statement and it exports it after the for statement.

how can I achieve that all filenames are concatenated?

  Vista to OS/2 connection         


Author: JMNorris
Date: Dec 28, 2007 16:31

I have OS/2 Server on top of Warp 4. I am trying to connect Windows Vista
to an OS/2 share, but the connection fails. It looks like a login problem,
but Windows is vague in their conneciton failure messages, so I can't be
sure. I can connect the Vista machine to an XP share and to a Linux Samba
share, and I can connect an XP machine to the OS/2 share. But I can't
connect the Vista Machine to the OS/2 share.

Thanks in advance for any help.

  Polarbar: Sent messages reappear in the Outbox folder         


Author: Stan Goodman
Date: Dec 27, 2007 23:21

Polarbar here has developed a strange behavior lately.

Sometimes (too often), I will send a message, watch it go out and the
outbox empty, and see it later in the Sent folder -- then see it again
in the outbox next time I load Polarbar. It's unnerving.

What should I understand from this?

This is eCS v1.1; the partition on which PBM is installed is JFS. The
same thing happens with any "recent" version of PBM.

MI5 Persecution: BBC. Newscasters Lie & Deny They're Watching Me

Central to the persecution campaign waged against. me for some nine years
now by the Security Service is their use of the media, and in. particular
the broadcast media, to make clear to me that I. am under surveillance and
being watched within my own home, even by. BBC newscasters while they read
the news. This is really an act of arrogance; MI5 and. their tools in the
television and radio are. so sure that they can never be caught, that they
have. many times made explicity clear on broadcast programmes that they are
as capable of seeing me as I am. of seeing the broadcast pictures. Even
when they have. known I am taping the programmes they still carry on this
practice; for examples of TVand radio presenters caught "in action",. see
the Evidence area of my. website.

If you wish to reply to this. article......
then please include your name. and fax number! I provide the means for
recipients to. send me their thoughts on the topics discussed, but ask that
you provide me with your. fax number or email address if you require a
response. Also would you please send not more than one or two pages, if. by
fax.. Thank-you!

It started. with a Newscaster, and it continues with Newscasters today

Four Years of "MI5 Persecution" Posts. on Internet Newsgroups

For approximately. the first three years of the MI5 persecution, from June
1990 until late 1992, I kept as quiet as possible, in the hope that by. not
reacting, MI5s interest in me would decrease and they. would simply go away
of their own accord. This is the sort of behaviour. some people employ
against bullies; if the bullies. arent getting a reaction, then they might
simply go. away and victimize someone else.

Unfortunately, this tactic. didnt work. The quieter I became, the more
shrill and. hysterical the noise from the Security Service operatives. For
about. two years I didnt watch TV news at all. Yet this only heightened
their obsessed. fixation; they continued to follow me wherever I went, they
continued. to induce harassment at work by managers and fellow workers, and
they continued. to encourage me to commit suicide. They seemed to regard my
refusal to react. as a crime which they would have to "put right" by ever
more extreme forms of. abuse.
