execute as instructed. which is where i have found assembler to be better at than using an 'interpreter/compiler'. if you can understand 'machine code', using assembler makes for a closer relationship with processor. where as with interpreter/compiler, you have to depend on how someone else thinks they know what you want to do.
Obviously I try to stay away from editing the cups config files by hand because they tend to get trampled on by cups configuration tools
very true. which is where if you do a manual config, _always_ make and save a backup copy of what you do. then if something breaks, you can look at what you did and what config tool did and gain a better understanding of what and how to make a manual change. fstab is a very good example of this.
Something, somewhere, somehow entered that line in the printers.conf
<snip> and a prime example of if you make a manual change [not implying that you did, only if you had] having your own backup of what you did, what tool had done would have stood out more. i am still at a wonder of why order of deny before allow in other file. just does not seem logical. but then i do not know how source writers set up things for file info is setup to use it.
Anyway, c'est la vie - that's what I get for not raking through the config files with emacs and relying upon the gui tools
and allowing someone/thing else to interpret what you want. anyway, it is working and that is what counts. -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
