打手新名單
為了什麼呢？同一篇文在6月12日，同一天，在三份不同報紙刊登：文匯、星島、信報。是曾蔭權向全港發話，才能得到這樣的優待。 這明明是借助政治力量，卻假扮中立的專業團體。作者明明是政府規劃處的工程師，卻出來
A Nightmare On Elm Street
小學的時候看過這電影

多年以來都為那故事著迷
很佩服夢中殺人狂魔的創意

'Argument list too long' is a misleading message
If you try to run a command with too many command line arguments, youget an 'Argument list too long' error (technically you get an E2BIG error from the kernel, which is then mapped into this error string byyour shell). There's a bunch of workarounds for this problem, such asusing xargs .
