...which is exactly the reason I don't post questions. I know that 95% of my questions I've thought of have been answered by a simple man page search, the other 5% are hacked together with Python.
As far as being a hacker when people call you that, good lord that term has been bastardized. Any punk that catches your Facebook open is a hacker anymore. I don't answer questions because I don't have the knowledge necessary to yet. When I do I'm sure I'll parrot in with a few RTFMs. Until then I'll just stalk about and read. Cheers.
