Keyboard error

Press F1 to continue.

[I saw this on my home computer yesterday. I fell out of my chair.]

del *.sys

Hmm...I tried it

:
# format C:\
bash: format: command not found

For you non unix computer nerds out there, Undrwater was
replying with a Unix Bourne Again shell (as a joke)


(format is not a typical unix command, except as a disk partioner on SunOS)
(you'll also never see a drive/partition/filesystem in Unix as C:\, however,
/sbin/mkfs_xfs /dev/dsk/dks0d1s0 is 'not a good thing' to try)

[gangrel441]

del *.sys

Ah, yes....the "deliver" command....

That would give a bit of a different error on my system as I don't have a /dsk in my /dev dir.

hit any key

I can't find the "any" key...

Was your PM censored before you received it or did the censorship occur when you posted it in the forums?

Thanks

The auto censor also works in PMs.

The auto censor also works in PMs.

I accept that the auto censor is a necessary evil on a family friendly board that is often visited by some real flamers. And I guess it makes sense to extend that to PMs. It is just unfortunate that management has elected to use the censor capability in a way that has nothing to do with family friendly. Some folks really just need to get over Karl.
