  4. Re:The whole point of OSS on Multiple-Display Power Tools For Linux? · · Score: 1

    Well, my interpretation of his question is along the lines of "is there a keyboard shortcut that *instantly* moves a window to another display, without having to keep ramming the arrow keys until it's where I want it".

    I may be wrong, of course.

    a) He's asking wether someone *has* done something like that, so he can be one of the mythical everyone elses people keep talking about.
    b) A lot of people seem to be using whatever window manager they want, and I expect fvwm is still in good use
    c) He's not actually talking about multi-desktop, he's talking about multi-screen. He wants to use the keyboard to move a window to another physical monitor, not another virtual desktop.

  10. Re:Important texts are ultimately communicated on The Voynich Manuscript May Have Been Decoded · · Score: 1

    > Fermat once wrote "I have discovered a truly remarkable proof which this margin is too small to contain." If he did indeed discover such a proof, he would have written it down somewhere else. This was a joke.

    He might also have had ADD and seen a shiny thing soon after; or he may have lost the moment of brilliant insight before he got his hands on more paper. He may even have started to write it down, only to discover a flaw.

    I generally agree with your rant, but I'd like to point out that the Allium family has more than just regular garlic. A wild plant that's called 'daslook' here (look is garlic) of that family, does look a lot more similar to the drawing: http://www.waterwereld.nu/images/daslook2.JPG .

    Ah, wikipedia is helpful again: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allium_ursinum

    The leaves are quite nice in a salad, too :-)
