Another of my favourite haunts, with some more great regular posters. I particularly relished the contributions of Barry Margolin and Ken Pizzini, and the occasional posting from Andy Walker, whom I once met. As the maintainer of the rc shell, I appear to have felt obliged to mention its superior syntax in at least one post in three! Sorry. :-)
