No stubborn/sticky keys. :) At this juncture I would like to reference another post to the thread: "This fascinates me. You think everyone on this list is a programmer?" Excepting myself, looks like your expectation was correct, at least regarding thread respondents. debian-users is where the best info with the best signal-to-noise ratio is so here I am. I've done lots of html, plenty of bash, some perl and a little php. I have a special backup for all the system files in /etc and /usr/share that I have tweaked so as to ease the carry-forward to new releases. But, not a programmer, just an enthusiast/hobbiest with a love of Debian, a high error rate, a strong penchant for having the best customized old laptops possible, a soar butt at times, and a habit of attempting to impress attractive young women with it all.
