> $ rm `find . -name "*.pyc"` Ouch. Is that a true story?
While we're remeniscing about bad typos and DEC, I should tell the story about the guy who clobberred his work because his English wasn't very strong. Under RT-11, all file management was handled by a program called PIP. For example to get a list of files in the current working directory you would enter PIP *.* /LI . Well this fellow, from one of those countries where our long "e" sound is their "i" sound, mournfully announced "I vanted a deerectory so I typed 'PIP *.* /DE' " That one is true. mt -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
