Fuck me! Been using KDE since 2004 and I had NO idea you could do that. (Works with Konq in both KDE 3 and 4, BTW.)

I don't like perl, either. ("Loathe" might not be too strong a term.) But neither am I foolish enough to believe that I am likely to wind up with a usable Linux or FreeBSD system if I try to set one of those up without it.

Hooray. Nice to see they finally got round to supporting Unicode. Structured docs. Woohoo. Multiple formatting backends. Yippee.

I'm guessing that you've never heard of chorizo.

You are aware, I'm sure, that your first sentence is handily negated by the second one?

Thanks for posting that here, where some unscrupulous writer might want to grab the idea to use for a novel. :)

Get back to us when you've learnt how to spell "kernel".
