Not to get too far off topic, but that reminds me of a quote: "Unix was not designed to stop you from doing stupid things, because that would also stop you from doing clever things." -- Doug Gwyn Or maybe it's: "C is a language that doesn't get in your way. It doesn't stop you from doing dumb things, but it also doesn't stop you from doing clever things." -- Dennis Ritchie. I asked Bard for a source on those quotes and it couldn't find one for the first. Wikiquotes sources it to "Introducing Regular Expressions" by Michael Fitzgerald and that does include it as a quote but it's not the source of the quote, it's just a nice quote at the start of the chapter. For the second, Bard claims to be from a 1990 interview and is on page 21 of "The Art of Unix Programming" by Brian Kernighan and Rob Pike. There is a book called "The At of Unix Programming" (2003) but it's by Eric Raymond and I could not find the quote in the book. Pike and Kernighan have two books, "The Practice of Programming" (1999) and "The Unix Programming Environment" (1984). Neither contain that quote.
