2006/4/16 [Computer/SW/OS/Linux] UID:42752 Activity:moderate
4/15    I hate to ask this, but why did we switch to Linux?
        \_ ahh... i still remember the Linux vs. FreeBSD jihad... it's almost
           as bad as Linux vs. Solaris jihad we had at Sun.

4/16    I'm very disappointed with os x:
        I made an application bundle around a python script: it executes fine
        but dropping a file on it doesn't work
        turns out finder passes a ProcessInfo object
        and you get that as argv[1]
        well, you get its UID- and that is the only arg you get
        so far the on;y way i have found to translate the UID into a process
        info, and thus to get the path of the file i dragged, is with cocoa
        i.e. c++ or objective c.
        doesn't seem to be any decent applescript way to do it, or i could just
        shell out to osascript
        i guess this explains why all the droplet hacks use a binary executable
        to call shell, perl, or python scripts
        this man-made creation troubles me
