I can't figure out form sed's "info" or "man" pages how to make the

I hope it's obvious that I'm trying to strip trailing white space from the
file "source.txt".
I can do this in TCL/perl and I know how to make a script file for sed work
Due in parts to brain fog and the remarkable stability of Linux, I've not

I appreciate the colour that gcc's "ls --color=auto" gives me, although I'd
like to change some of the colours. I didn't see it the man/info pages.
Ideas?

Hi,
I'm an embedded software developer and as such I often find that I'm
programming software that consists largely of state machines, intertwined,
orthogonal or a mixture of both. Not a big deal to implement a state machine
from hand drawn paper state diagrams, but it's a little tedious setting u
I'm compiling OpenSSH, and to access /dev/random, and /dev/urandom, the
configure script needs to be run as root.
What sort of trauma am I in for if I make those device permissions read
accessible by everyone?

This is a bit circular, but here goes ...
Is there a way to determine when a file was last accessed, without actually
refreshing the access time when reading the access time?

Moving the contents of my "/usr/bin" directory is simple enough: "mv

I'm a little confused about adding users on my linux box.
The box was setup with nothing more than a root user and

When I add users ("useradd") I'm thwarted by the "-p" option.
As "root", I don't know how to set a user's password. After I

I've poked around google to try and couple a driver name with
my ethernet card, a "Parallel Tasking II". I've not had success.
I tryed to decipher the markings on my ethernet card to select the

card's chip is:

I've given up getting an XTerm session from my windows X
client working, and really all I want is large text window session.
So, how can I expand the window size of telnet session beyond
the anaemic dimensions of 80x25?
