[DNG] Find files... disabled in PCmanFM

Hi all, For people using PCmanFM: in the menu of this file-manager there is a file search (Tools -> Find files...), what i find lacking in Thunar. Well..., sometimes this tool is greyed out (for example, in gnuinos openbox). In that case, you can enable it installing the package *libfm-modu

Re: [DNG] Studying C as told. (For help)

Hi, You know pretty well that I am in the right about this. Yes, it is incorrect to state it is the largest negative number without explicitly stating that one is talking about its modulus. On 29/06/2016, KatolaZ wrote: > On Wed, Jun 29, 2016 at 09:06:22AM +0200, Edward Bartolo wrote: >> Hi, >

Re: [DNG] Studying C as told. (For help)

Hi, Pg 78. "... our version of itoa does not handle the largest negative number, that is, the value of n equal to -(2^(wordsize - 1))". Do these authors understand what negative numbers are?! Describing -(2^(wordsize - 1)) as the LARGEST negative number clearly shows they have no idea! For the s
