What are you doing in that class? That stuff was really cool. Especially encryption techniques.

If you type fink describe enlightenment, you get the following (this is a really useful tool for any Fink package that has a description, really): enlightenment-0.16.5-6: Themeable, featureful window manager . Usage Notes: If you want to use Enlightenment as a stand-alone desktop...

To be honest, I haven't quite figured out what I want to specialize in. Both combinatorics and number theory struck a cord while I was an undergrad, but I don't have to make a decision yet, so I want to hold off on it (I'm taking year-long courses on topology, analysis, and algebra right now...

It does seem to be worth it though. I just recently tried Enlightenment again after not having done so for a while. I've been letting Fink update it when it wants to, so it's up to date. It's pretty impressive.

Oh, yeah. I completely forgot about that. I like to build whenever I can, so I've never actually used that method.

Yeah, we're doing the first quarter of graduate level algebra (I'm a first-year grad). We're sort of skipping around right now, although we're doing group theory this quarter. Our text is by Serge Lang, and it's horrible. I used Hungerford for undergrad and I still use that mostly now. And yeah...

For OmniWeb 4.1, you can switch through windows with command-~ and command-shift-~ (one if forward, the other backwards). Apple has indeed standardized on this as the way to cycle through windows (although it might take a while for everyone to follow it). I'm glad they did, because...

Honestly, I'm not sure. Try typing find /sw/fink/dists/ | grep "rootless" and see if anything comes up (I'm assuming you installed Fink under /sw. Again if worse comes to worse, you can get it from http://www.mrcla.com/XonX/ without any problems (it's what I'm using).

Don't forget the voice intros for Imax movies. Leonard Nimoy has defined that role.

Don't worry, there is an easy fix. Check out here (it's at the bottom); it worked for me.

I was working on a pretty long post about this, but Mozilla crashed, so this'll be a bit shorter. Basically, the source files have disappeared from AfterStep.org. I seem to remember there was a precompiled binary on www.versiontracker.com if you really want it. I tried to find the source files...

There was no xfree86-rootless-whatever.patch and .info's under unstable/main/finkinfo/x11-system? Yeah, fink fetch-missing would take a long time, since it downloads the sourcecode for every possible package available. I have a cable-modem, and I haven't even dared try that one.

Yeah, I've been using it for a day or two, and I've been impressed. It actually came at a great time, since the nightly builds of Mozilla had strangely lost the ability to open a link in a new window when command-clicking on the said link, and once you get used to that, you can never go back.

Like I said, that was just my speculation. I haven't followed Star Trek since DS9 ended and all there was was Voyager :rolleyes:. Now that TNN is showing reruns of TNG and there's a new Star Trek show, I'm getting into it a bit more. But I've missed a lot of the going-ons of it all.

What you need to do is copy the files from their corresponding sw/.../unstable directories to the stable version. The unstable directory isn't checked by fink, since many of the things there are, well, unstable (or not tested, or transititory). For example, for my particular version of Fink and...

This is not quite right. After install xfree86-base, you can do one of the following three possibilities: 1) type fink install xfree86-server to get the stable release 2) type fink install xfree86-rootless to get the rootless version (that is, have XFree86 and MacOS X coexist...

While I certainly don't know the real reason, I would venture to guess that it might be because Brent Spiner isn't looking any younger, and Data isn't supposed to age. Still, it is a disappointment, since his character is a lot less annoying than some others I could mention...

Was that an hour and a half for just the base download? Dang, you're in for a fun ride. I just did the compile for that today, and that took about three hours. I mean, it's all worth it (typing TeX in nedit for XFree86 is a dream), but...dang...
