2/13    How can one refer/save to a mailbox with space in its names in mutt?
        \_ Standard UNIX suggestions: have you tried
                backslash space (my\ mailbox)?
                single quotes ('my mailbox')?
                HTML equivalent (my%20mailbox)?
                \_ If you're going to answer, at least attempt it yourself.
                   \_ If you're going to ask a question, at least attempt
                      to explain the avenues you've already explored.
                      \_ Was not OP.  You're still totally unhelpful.
                         \_ Could have been, if op was new to mutt.
                            \_ You answer suggests you have less familiarity
                               with mutt or even unix than I do.  This is
                               not an insult and does not imply I know a lot.
                               And thanks for your time.  -- op
                               with mutt than I do.  I don't mean this as
        \_ It's a pain, but I was able to do this by typing "^V^V ". --scotsman
           \_ Thanks, you are awesome!  BTW, how did you find this?  It
              certainly does not show up in online help by typing '?'
              \_ it's in the mutt manual under editor bindings. it's also a
                 typical binding for a 'quoted-insert' type of function in
                 shells.
                 \_ v stands for "verbatim"?
                               an insult, and thanks for your time.  -- op
                               with mutt or even unix than I do.  I don't mean
                    \_ no.  it's unix, it stands for nothing.
        \_ Just rename the mailbox.
           \_ or perhaps a link will do.
                    \_ that's what makes it better.
        \_ sounds like a shitty mail program to me.
                               this as an insult or even imply I know a lot.

        \_ Just rename the mailbox.
           \_ or perhaps a link will do.
              \_ probably so but "^V^V " was so much more arcane, it just has
                 to be the better unix answer for the motd.
                 \_ not really. and only one ^v is necessary anyway.
                    \_ that's what makes it better.
        \_ sounds like a shitty mail program to me.

8/29    There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
        on to soda.  Does that page still exist?  Can someone remind me of the
        URL please?  Thx.
        \_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
           \_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
              that implemented an ssh v1 client.  I think this page went away

3/29    A friend wants a PC (no mac). She doesn't want Dell. Is there a
        good place that can custom build for you (SSD, large RAM, cheap video
        card--no game)?
        \_ As a side note: back in my Cal days more than two decades ago when
           having a 387SX made me the only person with floating-point hardware,
           most machines were custom built.

1/27    Interesting list of useful unix tools. Shout out to

10/24  What's an easy way to see if say column 3 of a file matches a list of
       expressions in a file? Basically I want to combine "grep -f <file>"
       to store the patterns and awk's $3 ~ /(AAA|BBB|CCC)/ ... I realize
       I can do this with "egrep -f " and use regexp instead of strings, but
       was wondering if there was some magic way to do this.
       \_ UNIX has no magic. Make a shell script to produce the ask or egrep

3/10    What email program do people in Cal CS use nowadays?  In my school days
        people used /usr/bin/mail, then RMail in emacs, then VMail in emacs.
        After my days people used Elm, Pine, Mutt (I forgot which order).  In
        my first two jobs we could tell the seniority of fellow engineers based
        on which email program they use at work, because everyone used what
        they used to use in their school years.  In my last two jobs though,

11/12   How does one find out if a system has rootkit installed?
        \_ Unix or m$?
           \_ Unix. On M$ I always assume it's compromised.
              \_ Install Tripwire before you plug your server into The Net?
                 The only other answer I can think of is to reinstall the
                 OS from scratch on another server and do an md checksum

9/4     I'm seriously very happy Soda no longer runs FreeBSD.
        FreeBSD is really going down the tubes

           as it has since the switch to Linux.  And that blog post is
           only abou the installer, not the running OS

7/24    Is dos2unix available somewhere?  Someone added all those Ctrl-M's to
