I've been wanting to completely delete Windows from my box -- in the past few months I've hardly used it anyway -- and I wanted to do it with a little bit of *style*. Exhibit A: bash script called "buhbye": ------------------- #!/bin/bash foo=$* if [ -f "$foo" ]; then echo Bye bye, Bill! > "$foo" fi ------------------------ Exhibit B: a couple commands: $ cd /mnt/c/windows/ $ find -name '*' -exec buhbye {} \; The result? A bunch of files, each 15 bytes long, each bidding a not-so-fond farewell to Chairman Bill and his OS! I just thought you guys would appreciate this. It feels good to have a totally Microsoft-free computer. :) Dan -- /*-------------------------------- Dan Drake <drake at lemongecko.org> http://lemongecko.org/drake/ --------pgp encouraged----------*/
