Merv, you're off-topic - that page doesn't mention Iceland once

That's what I was looking for...

And what's this about Iceland? I've been there.

Oddly enough, I could have sworn I made the point about kill -15 sixteen posts ago

yes... I lost count a few times, but you are right, and I think I acknowledged the fact that I received an answer that I understand in posts #11, #19 and #25, but this thread just keeps on going...

There must be some subtlety of the kill command that we could reiterate for you, surely

Alternatively, we could discuss Ron Mwangaguhunga.

Björk is real good. I'll see her live this summer. By the way, Apple Iceland and Apple Japan are the only ones except Apple USA who made thir own switch-ads.

Interesting article. I have considered moving to Iceland and the presence of a large mac community is intriguing... However, my fiancée is an herbalist and a gardener and I don't think there are any medicinal qualities to lava rock tinctures... (so she probably won't go with me...

) We should however explain to her how the nuances of the KILL command apply to the physical act of removing one from their computer: it is better to terminate gracefully (kill -15 me and my computer) than to be abruptly severed from a keyboard (kill -9 me and my computer)... right?

Hi folks,

I noticed that there was discussion of Horse Menu at the beginning of this thread. I happen to be the developer of the program. As some people already noted, Horse Menu is no longer available for download or purchase. However, rest assured that the program is extremely stable and does not have any problems that should stop you from using it.

If you would like the latest version, please contact me directly and I can supply you with it. My email address is software@nimatoad.com

So why'd you pull it? It is a great program. I particularly use the 'send signals' part a lot, which is why I started this thread. (I needed a little clarification, which if you noticed, was provided 3 times, and djn1 was the first to do so in the 10th post

)

hmmm ... guess I must have sounded piqued then? Not intentional

And yes, I'd be interested to hear why it was pulled too.

no. I didnt' think so. I was simply making a joke about it.

Yet one more reason to drag this thread on ... I wasn't being serious either, hence the '
