    Anybody else want Unix Focus forum restored?

    One of the laudable things about this forum is that word in the upper left corner underneath MacOSX.com. The posters here, from what I've read, strive to be a community of people interested in MacOS X, in all of its aspects. X is a shiny new toy without a lot of good documentation, and this is a...

    Dynamic Image Editing?

    Could it be a png thing? Since php uses open source libraries to generate images, the gif file format was abandoned becase of LZW patent issues. The image works just fine for me in X, but I've read that some people have problems viewing png files.

    I don't mean to harp too much and it be taken as undue criticism, but I do believe this site is actually valuable, both as information and entertainment. The problem I see with the current division is that it doesn't differentiate very well between the two, and when you're looking for one, the...

    The GUI and CLI seem to be pretty natural divisions within OSX. I'm not implying the two will never get along, but each side is a little suspicious of the other. From what I've seen, the GUI crowd seems more opinion oriented (this browser is better than that one, spring loaded folders are/aren't...

    Which is exactly my point, since I run MySQL & PHP (& Apache, etc., ad nauseum) on a Mac running Darwin, not Linux.

    UNIX command to make files LOWERCASE???

    Indespensible: Unix Power Tools, chock full of goodness. Many like: Essential System Administration, but a lot of it (like the unix filesystem & X-windows won't necessarily apply to you). I prefer: Practical UNIX & Internet Security while its title makes it seem primarily concerned with...

    Dynamic Image Editing?

    It isn't that hard if you already know php which isn't that hard if you already know perl. If you're feeling full of beans a good place to start would be here and here. If a printed manual is more your style, there is a chapter on generating graphics in Visual Quickpro Advanced PHP. The main...

    LTM and Nummi show/ Rated "R"

    Here in NYF'nC, we often add a more polite ending, i.e. "F' you, buddy!" but seriously folks, if you are looking for a semi-valid reason not to swear, give some consideration to the saps that can't connect to the web except via a public machine with a Congressionally mandated "Web Blocking"...
