Hilarious. I pranked my friend with this, and now he's pissed. Oh well, it was certainly worth it.
Interesting, though, what exactly causes this bug. It seems as if the built-in spellcheck seems to misinterpret the string "file:///" as some sort of alien construct, or perhaps false typed directories trigger some sort of lockdown. Either way, it's very puzzling how this sort of thing made it past the OS X developers, especially with Apple's level and standard of ultra-high quality control.
- omaranto 14y agoDoesn't Apple's quality control only apply to hardware? I hear people complain about bugs and just shear ugliness of their software pretty often.
- kunai 14y agoUp until 10.6, actually, Apple used to produce very good, generally bug-free software. Starting with 10.7, they've begun to rush their software just because they have, say, 4 new "features". The yearly release cycle is partly to blame, but even then, iOS bugs are much more minor.
