For a multiple-choice poll how is this in any way useful? Shouldn’t it have the number of voters?

having a shell is really good because it feels like I'm computing on a unix timeshare in the year of 1970.

If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.
Soft and hard shell combo with the soft on the outside. Also all vegan ingredients.

I'd rather cut my dick off than right shell scripts.

one of my co's is always looking for the next homeopathic software tool to save him from having to understand anything

yesterday he asked how to do something, so I started to type a command on his computer and pressed tab for file completion and that caused the shell window to hang

he said "this is zshell" and I asked why he was using it with a broken autocomplete and he just giggled. he'd do this with every tool given the chance

then again, you program in c++ and think it's ok, so i'd say this is a wash

it's an extension of ksh with x and motif library calls you could use to write gui shell scripts

it came with cde

here are some dtksh scripts: http://www.brendangregg.com/dtkshdemos.html

it seems kinda neat actually other than the fact that x and motif library calls are janky as gently caress
