As I slowly RTFM learning command line, I am amazed by how much can be accomplished by the basic command line (BASH etc).
Starting with 5 VOB files, I decided I wanted one. No easy way to do this in Wintendo, but I happened to think of cat on Linux.
cat zombie* > zombie.vob
~3 minutes later I had the 5 combined into one big file.
Nothing major, I just thought it was neat;-)
I'm currently running three flavors of Linux: RedHat 9, Suse 9.1, and Mandrake 10.01. I also have a few versions lying around that boot solely off of CDs, or DVDs. Linux reminds me of the command line driven interface of the old DOS versions, "B.W." (Before Windows), and that is where it gets its real power. The GUI, however, is quirky, and consistent in 'weird' ways. For instance, the password handling applet crashes in almost ever flavor of Linux I've ever tried. Why is that?
