  Re: Pentapterigoid Star Fighter wallpaper
 
(...) Thanks! (...) It was rendered using elements from the galaxy include files I got from somewhere. Believe it or not, creating the background took much longer than orienting the model like I wanted it. --Bram (25 years ago, 13-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Merry Christmas everybody!

(...) I love it. I love the background space graphic you used, too. Did you paint that, or is it rendered somehow? -- jthompson@esker.com "float on a river, forever and ever, Emily" (25 years ago, 13-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Hmm, I usually just stand it on its engines. The original version could balance rather well on one wing, but it can't in the new version.

  Re: Partsref is Moving to LUGNET
 
(...) Yah. Keeping my _sed & awk_ and _Programming Perl_ within reach isn't a matter of life and death -- it's much more important than that. But make is really a simple tool. I wonder just how useful an entire book for it would be. The last one I (...) (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Oh, I dunno about O'Reilly... :-) Their stuff is spotty. It varies from good, up through Insanely Great, all the way to YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THIS BOOK. I wish they'd just pick a quality level and stick to it. :-) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Partsref is Moving to LUGNET
 
(...) This is kludgy but might work. Details left as an exercise. Your problem is that what you want is to know when a file is *new to YOU* not what it's timestamp is.
