(...) or like Bill has finally gotten sick of the business of business and wants to get back to the fun part... wouldn't we all! -- -Steven "Nothin' But Net!" (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Parsing Pause database
 
(...) I wrote such a script. However, it is really ugly: it's mostly Tcl but it calls perl to do the DB query. It should be all perl (it would be much easier/shorter/quicker) but it grew out of something else I was playing with in Tcl.

(...) Here's a q&d pseudo-grep, if that helps... #!/bin/sh cat /home/username/lego/...number.txt | \ perl -e 'my %x = map {(split(/\t/,$_,2))[0], $_} grep {/^\d.*\t/} <STDIN>; print join "", map {$x{$_}} @ARGV;' $* --Todd (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Why are my fonts broken?
 
(...) No, it's broken that way. If you change the font size to bigger manually, it goes and changes it back. I wonder though about the advice in the howto -- you can probably change what 12pt _is_. (...) I'd recommend getting a daily build (or the (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Parsing Pause database
 
(...) Huh. I don't know of such a thing, but it wouldn't be very hard to make. Perhaps if I'm bored while on vacation... :) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Why are my fonts broken?
 
(...) Ahh, many thanks. Things are much improved now. Not perfect yet, but no longer incredibly painful to try to read. (...) Things seem to be working okie-dokie for me in Netscape Navigator except for one big thing: It insists on always rendering (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Parsing Pause database
 
Has anyone coded some kind of utility which performs something similar to the following: Input: text file with list of set numbers Output: text file with set number, set name, number of pieces, and retail price I suppose the output would be (...)

  Re: Linux Certifications
 
I wonder if that's because of the relative "newness" of the various certs or because they're not being publicised by a large monolithic company or because not enough managers/HR departments know what Linux is or if Unix people in general rely on (...)

  Re: Linux Certifications
 
(...) I have never heard of people getting jobs, getting rejected for jobs, or getting a higher salary based on RH certs. I _have_ heard of people not getting jobs at least partly based on the fact that they were MCSEs. Again, take that as you will. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Linux Certifications
 
(...) Hey, as my manager once said (when I was asking if I should look into MCSE, way back when), "it can't hurt." :-) -Steven (URL) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Linux Certifications
 
(...) Fair 'nuf, and thanks to Matthew for the pointer to Sair. I know we use MCSE as a minimum screen for some positions, didn't know if anyone is - or is considering in the future - doing something similar when looking at Unix candidates. -Steven (...)

  Re: Linux Certifications
 
(...) Agreed. But what about affecting salary? (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Linux Certifications
 
(...) Right now, I haven't heard of _anyone_ taking these and actually getting a job because of it. Let alone missing out on a job due to not having it. Take that as you will. Jasper (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
