The OODE (Other Other Desktop Environment) is the answer to this
resource hog and artificial user harnessing interface ODE. Those
are the laws of OODE:

You shall not use aliases because they are a waste of resources.

You shall only use the commandline for entering commands. You are
allowed to use TAB-Completion, but only twice a day so you can
learn to spell the names of your apps correctly.

You shall use ed as your editor and you shall not have any editor
beside him.

You may use X, but TWM is the only window manger allowed, and you
are not allowed to use more than one xterm. Stay away from menus
in TWM.

You shall not use scripts may it be your own or someone elses,
because that makes you lazy and prevents you from learning your
system. Any program that is a script has to be entered line by
line, so you gain a good understanding of your system. The only
exception are the init scripts, but you must cut them down to the
bare minimum.

You may use pipes an redirection to accomplish more complicated
tasks, but only if it is not possible to achieve the same result
by doing it one command at a time.

You shall not use regular expressions or wildcards, because they
make life easier and life is not easy.

You shall use a terminal application whenever possible. Avoid any
documents you can't read or tasks you can't accomplish with
terminal apps. You don't need them because their contents is
heretic.

You shall not use any package manager or any packages. The source
is the only way to enlightment.

The OODE is the true and only way to use a UNIX/Linux/BSD system
because it repesents the true spirit of pure and clean computer
use. Anybody using something diferent is an evil troll who won't
be able from bullying me out of this group. I won't see their
posts anyway, since my super-hyper filters combined with my C/R
mail system will automatically detect any message that makes fun
of me. I will respond though, since I read the stuff in google
groups instead, after all I need to know what the evil trolls,
which are only sock puppets of that uber-troll "Dan C", are
saying about me.

lol.

This is why I don't understand what Tom's friggin problem is.

If I have a machine with lots of HP and want KDE and eye candy, then let
me use it. If I have a machine that isn't as fast and want to use only
telnet, then let me use it.

I don't force you to use KDE, don't force me to use YOUR setup.

that's what I refer to as the beauty and nightmare of Linux: choice.

Don't like lilo? Use grub.
Don't like KDE? Use xfce.
Don't like emacs? Use vim.
Don't like bash? Use csh.
And so on...

but methinks mr tom is just looking to fight, so I just ignore him now.
