   Is shakti related to kx? What is going to happen with kdb+? I also have a practical question. Does `brandelf -t Linux bin/k` violate the License agreement?

    Just option click the script name. The script look at the current window body, RE match dot or RE match texts right before the dot. The first match executes the associated action. It's basically an extended version of plumber.

    A template expander is indispensable for productivity. I have a perl script that expands text based on matching regular expressions. In this way I'm not tied to any particular editors: I wrap it in an AppleScript for a text service,

    Why is this such a big deal? Is there really so much difference among ui.WindowCfg, ui.WindowConfig, and ui.WindowConfiguration? As long as everything is consistently named within a framework/language, I don't see any problem.

    I just saw that Dennis Ritchie has a short cut to Sam on his Windows NT desktop in 2002, while Brian Kernighan was using Sam from plan9port on Mac OS in 2015, from this screenshot https://anders.unix.se/2015/12/10&

    I don't know what your "fluent" means. But I recommend keep studying Japanese until you can read newspaper in native level speed and try to imagine the newspaper in 仮名 only 漢字無し, then in romanized latin letters. Ane for fun:

    I was curious what this plumber could be. 2-1 is just a concatenation of two strings and run the whole string. I wouldn't call it pipe.
