Unlikely, imo. He would still execute the command and then execute whatever the program returns. At which point the machine has been shutdown cleanly, already.
Oh and if you look at the docs of Puerto Rico & San Juan, you know what _good_ docs look like. Small, concise, only one corner case which is not covered explicitly (but implicitly). And they put PDFs on their website so you can print out new buildings for Puerto Rico instead of selling you an expansion. How cool is that?
Owning all of these except Ticket to Ride, I suggest you don't buy Settlers. It may have started the whole thing, but it's younger siblings are simply better. Especially Puerto Rico & San Juan as they are made in a way that will ensure all people will play all the time. With Settlers, you can have extended waiting periods.
If you are going to get just two, get Carcassonne (best of the lot) and San Juan (vastly different game mechanics, uses only playing cards so it's highly portable & mobile).
But as we are talking a 13 yo, I suggest you also look at Niagara ( http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/13308 ) along with the expansion and Ubongo http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/16986 . You probably want to modify the rules of Niagara to disallow stealing (try both with and without and you will know why). And you don't want to show the kid the Ubongo Extreme! variant with the hexagons any time soon.
Mentioning Cluedo, Risk & Trivial Pursuit for completeness.
Klackon can produce more per factory. Still not much of a difference when fighting.
As I said, you prolly mean Bulrathi (better ground fights), Mrrshan (better offensive space combat) or perhaps Alkari (?) (better defensice space combat)
> But having your allies do the fighting for you just kind of proves my point. And I'll point out that it goes two ways; your allies will get awfully pissed of those mutual defense treaties are unilateral.
Not if you are good, no. Trade treaties & intelligent trading of tech goes a long way. Paying them tributes does the rest.
Of course, this is all MoO 1.3. MoO 2 & 3 don't exist, mmmkay?
You probably mean Bulrathi or Mrrshan, though. Meklar can control more factories, but that's it.
And no, you do not need to be able to project violence. Play as human, have good treaties and either have your allies grind your enemies into dust or make them all one big happy family. If you create a happy family of all (or almost all) races, you will be elected Galactic Emporer and you will have won.
Unix and its siblings never struck me as a system with much handholding when you fuck up. Why should manpages be any different? Not that I think that half-knowledge from good examples is better than half-knowledge from random guessing, mind.
Also, design for your target audience, not for a potential situation which most good admins/users will surpass quickly.
> BSD is for people who love Unix. Linux is for people who hate Windows.
Interesting POV. Wrong, but interesting nonetheless.
If you want to liken the OS/kernel to the licence the main parts are under, Linux is for people who want freedom for users and BSD is for people who want freedom for the developers. But even that argument does not hold water in most cases. Point in case, I use Linux, Zsh, Vim, Perl, Apache, all of which are under different licences.
OS X comes with zsh installed, by default (albeit in a weird place, iirc).
I have root on the machines I use on a regular basis or I can request software to be installed. If that were not the case, I would throw one or two compiled binaries into my svn which I use for RC files and use those on systems where ZSH is not installed.
Long story short, I know no single person who really used zsh for more than a week and went back to their old shells. By "really" I mean "steal a zshrc from somewhere" or "read the docs". The feature list is too long to even begin, but suffice it to say that once you are used to zsh, you can not imagine why you ever used anything else. Yes, it's that amazing.
Get "From Bash to Z Shell" if you like dead trees. Subscribe to the mailing list & join the IRC channel if not.
Find me under my username on freenode or send a PM via/. if you want a quite extensive zshrc which does loads of neat stuff.

Maybe the suggestion was to get a bigger laser pointer? ;)

Yes, you can.
Imagine if anything other than a cell phone had that kind of error rate (which was not defined, btw)..
..you can win Master of Orion, Civilization etc by clever trade & diplomatics.

Are you (and your mods) seriously not getting this?
For example, if you asked me how to delete all files, my SMS would look like:
Hi Fastolfe, to delete all your files, just enter :)
rm -rf /
have fun killing your system
By sending you this SMS, I would have killed all my data. Ouch.
> And no, I'm not strange :D
At least that's what my wardens tell me when I get my weekly pound of drugs..
It should be +5 insightful. Sheesh, can't you get anything right?

PS: This is not 'moving from Bash to Z Shell'. It's 'all shells from Bash to Z Shell'. It covers csh, ksh etc, as well.

> 4. Adding : to the front of complex commands you just typed but realise you don't want to execute yet so that they get into your shell history
Fire up zsh, do
bindkey '^Q' push-line
type some stuff, press CTRL-Q, type other stuff & press enter.
It's pushd/popd, just for commands.
I like the CTRL-A syntax as that keeps the ESC key free for the truly important editors :)
Agreed. Any man page which does not list examples & common use cases at the end sucks.

Yah, that commands seems to be unhappy with itself
blockdev: ioctl error on /dev/adsp /dev/null /dev/* |
[...]
blockdev: ioctl error on
[1] 17185 segmentation fault blockdev --report
17186 done
perl -pie
Or you could mkdir -p the basedir and keep a hierachical structure of your files.
Not sure if that helps in your case, but zsh can do that with
setop extended_history
which results in
: 1225880066:0;echo hi
Note that this will execute fine in Bash etc, so you can still share history files.
