Some things never change.

Pitfall was a great game! Wait... thoughts about the deal w/ MSFT? No.

This is the reason. Duh!

It's not open-source though. Or at least, maybe it's not... the jury seems to be out on that. And, I need to minimize my legal expenses. Just having some fun :D Honestly, if I had my complete druthers I would prefer text2pdf. A utf-8/encoding fix (w.r.t. the backtick problem) would be nice...

Amen!

I noticed this and I like that you've bundled all the text. This eliminates the need to piece together the script manually. From a pedagogic perspective it may detract a little but I don't want to split hairs. However, I don't see how a reader couldn't follow the original post and not simply...

You mean, on your phone? Or via the white 2FA plastic card? I'm asking because I've noticed some strange GUI problems with the gateway where it fails to repaint or something along those lines and it only appears as if there's a problem. I trust you've confirmed that the networking aspect isn't...

I'll still catch myself using backquotes sometimes but I like $() better too. Of course, all this has me curious, lol. I was seeing extraneous new lines; not smart quotes. So I tried a few more viewers; the simpler ones don't support copy/paste but I digress. What I noticed is that evince...

:thumbsup: No one's questioning your veracity. We're just looking for a "free lunch" ;) Seriously... kudos to you! Enjoy the proprietary IP you've created :fistbump:

Post source code if you can! Lol You know, like I do. Hell... you can copy and paste my content directly! We actually have to think about what you're doing and take wild, barely educated, guesses :(

You know des, I'm not saying I don't believe you... because I do 100%. But with all due respect, it would really help if you gave precise details of the exact trade and its thesis. After all, I'm a covert agent, and I need to bring something back to my clandestine organization. Otherwise... I'm...

...in my 35 years of experience I can say with certainty that managing expectations is extremely difficult. For example, I wasn't expecting to see this: Error: Unable to connect to MySQL and select database. MySQL reported: Access denied for user 'mbunea_fbb2'@'localhost' to database...

However, I just tried the analog of the trick by generating a .shar of demo.py (instead of using the tiny custom shell script I present) and guess what... it didn't work! $ ./test.shar ./test.shar: 14: ./test.shar: name: not found ./test.shar: 17: ./test.shar: 266: not found ./test.shar: 59...

Close, but no cigar? Looks like you might have to take "the easy way" ;)

Does it get any easier?

This would be a decent start I guess.

My BP is about 5x the account equity right now... how much room you think there is for improvement there? That is, without taking advantage of any glitchs in PM/TIMS :sneaky:

Thanks for reminding me that this metric is more interesting than people tend to think!

This is a shame and I'm guessing it has something to do with University of Nottingham policy. I can understand the university wanting to get ROI for their human capital. But, preventing the distribution of a 500 line program that's over 25 years old just sounds crazy. It seems long overdue they...
