It's not AutoCAD. Revit linking is (or was when I last looked 3 years ago) an unmitigated toxic hell stew! Autodesk are an absolute blight on the architecture and engineering worlds. While there is hand wringing going on around Apple&#

The difference here of course is that Microsoft we’re shown to be threatening to withdraw OEMs licenses if they provided Netscape preinstalled. They also threatened the same if OEMs provided alternative OSS such as Linux. Apple on the other

Preview has been there from the very early days of NeXT and Display PostScript (NeXT worked on DPS with Adobe). Apple’s pdf handling has always been baked in as Quartz is ‘pdf based’.

How is renaming poor? You can batch rename and a simple click on the file name allows for renaming. Last time I used Nautilus, you still had to activate file renaming with a keypress or from a menu and that had to be done in a moat window.

That's what scares me... So you agree with the EU's actions on this? You are refuting that they are in the wrong? I grew up in France and have elderly relatives there. The fact that the EU are behaving like this is deeply saddenin
